Abstract: The present disclosure provides a gene encoding a protein having ?-ketoacyl-ACP synthase activity having at least 60% or more identity with the amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO:1, the protein encoded by the gene, a method of producing a transformant by transforming a host with the gene, a transformant that is transformed with the gene, and a method of producing a lipid, especially, a lipid containing a medium chain fatty acid or ester thereof, by culturing the transformed host that expresses the gene. In some embodiments, the transformant also has a gene encoding an acyl-ACP thioesterase.

Abstract: A logical volume (VOL) is provided from a storage system to a host system of a service user. A data volume reduction process is applied to data stored in the VOL. A management system determines whether at least one of a provided total capacity (provided to the service users) and a user used total volume (prior to the data volume reduction process) exceeds a storage volume capacity (upper limit of capacity of a storage space for the service provider). If so, a billing amount is calculated based on at least one amount among a first excess capacity (the difference between the user used total volume and the storage volume), a second excess capacity (the difference between the provided total capacity and the storage volume), and an amount corresponding to the service user defined as relating to at least one of the first excess capacity and the second excess capacity.

Abstract: A method of producing a lipid, containing the following steps (1) and (2); and a transformant obtained by introducing a gene encoding the following protein (a) or (b) into a host: (1) introducing a gene encoding the following protein (a) or (b) into a host, and thereby obtaining a transformant, and (2) collecting a lipid from the resulting transformant: (a) A protein consisting of an amino acid sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1; and (b) A protein consisting of an amino acid sequence having 60% or more identity with the amino acid sequence of the protein (a), and having ?-ketoacyl-ACP synthase activity.

Abstract: A computer system and its control method capable of allocating resources to a plurality of users in a balanced manner and ensuring information security between the users even when the plurality of users are made to extensively manage a storage system are provided. The storage system includes: a plurality of resource groups defined by grouping of a plurality of resources; a storage area for storing management information of the plurality of resource groups and association information between the plurality of resources and the plurality of resource groups; and a plurality of user groups defined by grouping of the plurality of users, each of the user groups being allocated to at least one of the plurality of resource groups; wherein based on login of at least one user from among the plurality of users, a management device has the storage system execute operation permitted by an authority granted to the user group, to which the relevant user belongs, on the resource group allocated to the user group.

Abstract: Mapping tables are for stipulating information for primarily identifying computers, information for identifying a group of the computers and a logical unit number permitting access from the host computer inside storage subsystem, in accordance with arbitrary operation method by a user, and for giving them to host computer. The invention uses management table inside the storage subsystem and allocates logical units inside the storage subsystem to a host computer group arbitrarily grouped by a user in accordance with the desired form of operation of the user, can decide access approval/rejection to the logical unit inside the storage subsystem in the group unit and at the same time, can provide the security function capable of setting interface of connection in the group unit under single port of storage subsystem without changing existing processing, limitation and other functions of computer.

Abstract: An apparatus for preventing an unauthorized use of a copyright medium adapted to identify a purchaser by authentication of the purchaser's fingerprint at the time of purchasing an encrypted copyright medium, so that only the purchaser can reproduce or copy work data recorded in the copyright medium. Data is read from a copyright medium identification database in order to write a copyright medium unique identification database and a cipher key database into a Smart card or other recording mediums using a Smart card or other recording medium data reading/writing device. Moreover, fingerprint data of the purchaser of the copyright medium is read by using a fingerprint authentication device. The purchaser's fingerprint data, the copyright medium unique identification data, and the cipher key are written into the Smart card or other recording medium using the Smart card or other recording medium data reading/writing device.
