摘要:
In a method for allowing a cutter blade to relatively travel along an outer periphery of a semiconductor wafer to cut a protective tape joined to a surface of the semiconductor wafer in conformity with an outer shape of the semiconductor wafer, the cutter blade is allowed to relatively travel along the outer periphery of the semiconductor wafer with a positioning notch provided on the outer periphery thereof. The cutter blade is rotationally turned at the fore half of the notch recessed on the outer periphery of the semiconductor wafer during the relative travel of the cutter blade in such a manner that its blade tip is directed toward the center of the wafer. In contrast, the cutter blade is rotationally turned at the rear half of the notch in such a manner that its blade tip is directed toward the outer periphery of the semiconductor wafer.

摘要:
A cutter blade cooling part is operated by a first temperature control part to regulate a temperature and flow amount of cooled air blown on a cutter blade and heating of the cutter blade by an electrothermal heater. Thus, a protective tape is cut while the temperature of the cutter blade is maintained at a temperature equal to or less than room temperature.

The present invention relates to a model animal spontaneously developing anemia. More specifically, the invention relates to a transgenic non-human mammal spontaneously developing anemia associated with a postnatal decrease in production of erythropoietin (Epo), Epo-producing cells prepared from the transgenic non-human mammal, and a screening method using the Epo-producing cells.

Proposes the realization of the performance stability operation of virtual volumes and the stabilized access performance for the virtual volumes in the storage apparatus. In the storage apparatus which configures a pool of multiple types of storage tiers of different performances, provides virtual volumes to the host computer and, in accordance with a write request from an application to a virtual volume, assigns pages to the relevant virtual volume from the pool, a policy associating an application with the virtual volume with which the relevant application reads/writes data, a storage tier to assign pages to the relevant virtual volume, and the priority of the relevant storage tier is managed and, in accordance with a write request from the application, complying with the corresponding policy, among the storage tiers associated with the corresponding virtual volume, pages are assigned from the storage tier of the higher priority to the relevant virtual volume.
摘要:
A storage system has a plurality of flash packages, and a storage controller for receiving a write request from a host and sending a write-data write request based on data conforming to this write request to a write-destination flash package. A virtual capacity, which is larger than the physical capacity of the flash package, is defined in the storage controller. The storage system compresses the write data, and writes the compressed write data to the write-destination flash chip.

The storage system includes a host computer; a management computer coupled to the host computer; a first storage device coupled to the host computer and the management computer, and including first port management information; and a second storage device coupled to the host computer, the management computer and the first storage device, and including second port management information. The first port management information and the second port management information include an identifier of a port on each storage device, an identifier of a volume in each storage device, an access restriction and an identifier of a port permitted access from the host computer to each storage device.
摘要:
A storage system comprises a plurality of flash packages comprising a plurality of flash chips, and a storage controller for receiving a first write request from a higher-level apparatus and sending a second write request of write data based on data conforming to this first write request to a write-destination flash package, and demonstrates a capacity virtualization function for causing a storage capacity to appear larger than an actual storage capacity for the higher-level apparatus, and for configuring a storage space using page units. The storage system generates a second VOL (logical volume) based on a first VOL, manages a plurality of VOLs comprising the first VOL and one or more second VOLs generated based on the first VOL as a VOL group, and allocates the same page to areas of the same address of the plurality of VOLs configuring the VOL group.
摘要:
A computer system including a management computer for managing the entire system, an integral apparatus, and a high-level connecting device for connecting the management computer and the integral apparatus is designed so that the management computer retains integral apparatus internal configuration information, configuration information about an integral apparatus to be introduced, that indicates the configuration of the integral apparatus that may possibly be introduced to the system, and lifetime information indicating lifetime of the integral apparatus; obtains connectivity guarantee information indicating whether connectivity between the computer and the storage apparatus is guaranteed or not; selects an integral apparatus to be removed from the system by referring to the lifetime information; selects an integral apparatus to be introduced to the system by referring to the integral apparatus internal configuration information, the configuration information about the integral apparatus to be introduced, and the connectivity guarantee information.
摘要:
In a storage system which includes a plurality of microprocessors, it is desired to prevent delay in I/O responses due to synchronous processing waiting for asynchronous processing, while still ensuring the throughput of asynchronous processing. In a plurality of microprocessors possessed by a controller, synchronous processors and asynchronous processors are mixed together. The synchronous processors are microprocessors whose duty is to perform synchronous processing and not to perform asynchronous processing. And the asynchronous processors are microprocessors whose duty is to perform asynchronous processing and not to perform synchronous processing.
