    Abstract: A congestion control method includes determining whether congestion occurs by monitoring a network, receiving an interest packet including a name of content data that is requested to be sent, generating a first NACK packet indicating an occurrence of congestion if it is determined that the congestion occurs when the interest packet is received, and sending the generated first NACK packet to the network. In the generating of the first NACK packet, if first alternative content data which is an alternative of the content data corresponding to a name included in the received interest packet is stored in a cache of the router, information regarding the first alternative content data is set in the first NACK packet. At least one of the determining whether the congestion occurs, the receiving the interest packet, the generating the NACK packet, and the sending the NACK packet is performed by a processor of the router.

    Abstract: A system with which any abnormality can be easily found is provided. A system includes: a first modulator that generates a control signal and modulates an input signal in accordance with the generated control signal, to control luminance of a first light source that emits light according to the modulated input signal, the first modulator outputting the control signal; a second modulator that acquires the control signal output from the first modulator and modulates an input signal in accordance with the control signal, to control luminance of a second light source that emits light according to the modulated input signal, the second modulator outputting the control signal. The first modulator generates, as a light ID signal, a control signal for transmitting a visible light signal by luminance variations of the first light source, and acquires a light information signal being the control signal output from the second modulator.

    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for configuring subframes for uplink/downlink communication for a mobile station (UE) not supporting dual uplink but located in a communication system supporting dual connectivity. The UE is connected simultaneously to two base stations via a respective communication link. An uplink transmission pattern is determined, defining whether subframes are usable for uplink communication to the first or second base station or for switching the uplink communication between the two communication links. Based on the determined uplink transmission pattern, and further based on configuration of the mobile station for supporting dual reception or not, a downlink reception is derived for downlink communication between the two base stations and the mobile station, the downlink reception pattern defining whether the subframes are usable for downlink communication from the first or second base station or for switching the downlink communication between the two communication links.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and media for managing a plurality of target devices are provided. A voice command is received by an input associated with a first target device. The voice command includes first voice information and indicates an operation instruction. The first voice information includes identification information. The first target device is specified by referencing a database in which the identification information and a device ID of the first target device are associated. It is determined whether the voice command includes second voice information that identifies a second target device as an operation object for the operation instruction. When the second voice information is not included, the first target device is caused to execute the operation instruction. When the second voice information is included, a control command is transmitted to the second target device for causing the second target device to execute the operation instruction.

    Abstract: A method includes: inputting information indicating power usage; generating a differential value between i) a first cumulative value of power usage corresponding to a first user ID and ii) a second cumulative value of power usage corresponding to a second user ID in a prescribed period; generating a first conversion value by converting the differential value to a use time of an electric home appliance of a first type corresponding to the first user ID; generating a first electricity bill value by converting the difference value to an electricity bill; generating display data indicating that the first electricity bill value corresponds to the first conversion value; and a transmitting unit that transmits the display data.
