  • Patent number: 11913775
    Abstract: The present invention provides an intra-hoistway measurement system automatically measuring dimensions within an elevator hoistway prior to elevator installation to reduce labor of workers. An intra-hoistway measurement system according to the present invention includes: a reference laser device that is mounted to a structure on a ceiling or in an upper portion of the hoistway for an elevator and emits a laser beam toward a lowermost part; a mobile measuring device that has a plane measuring device to measure horizontal dimensions within the hoistway; and a moving device that is mounted to the structure on the ceiling or in the upper portion of the hoistway and moves the mobile measuring device up and down. The mobile measuring device has a reference laser detection device that detects the laser beam emitted from the reference laser device, and an attitude detection device that detects its own attitude.

  • Patent number: 11886901
    Abstract: In a virtual machine (VM) performance guarantee system, a physical server includes a storage unit that divides physical resources into a plurality of groups and stores priority group setting information containing priority groups for setting different numbers of VMs capable of sharing physical resources, and a priority group changing unit that receives an instruction for changing a priority group and changes a priority group to which a VM belongs, with reference to the priority group setting information. In addition, the controller includes a priority changing determination unit that determines insufficient performance and excessive performance for a calculated performance value on the basis of the resource use amount of the VM and performs the instruction for changing a priority group of the VM.

  • Patent number: 11640314
    Abstract: The utilization efficiency of physical resources is increased by allocating an occupied physical CPU core to a virtual CPU core in a virtual machine in a working system and allocating a shared physical CPU core to a virtual CPU core of a virtual machine in a standby system in a state in which the systems are active. A dedicated activation core, a shared core, or an occupied core is allocated when the respective virtual machines are activated, the resource allocation is changed after the respective virtual machines are activated, and the shared core and the occupied core are appropriately assigned to the working system and the standby system. In a case in which a failure occurs in the virtual machine of the working system, allocation of the shared core allocated to the other virtual machine in the pair is changed into an occupied state to avoid degradation of performance.
