Abstract: When a plurality of services are enjoyed by a single terminal, a communication regulation caused by another service has influence on enjoyment of another service. A service provider and a mobile communication provider are affiliated with each other and newly provide an affiliated service in which a communication fee for a service use is borne by the service provider to a user. Conventional communication and affiliated service communication are performed on a single communication line of the user together, and communication control is performed in units of services such that a service quality of the affiliated service is maintained. It is implemented by affiliating a communication log and contract information between business operators and performing communication identification using user information at the time of a contract as a key.

Abstract: A gateway device disposed at front stage before a server has a dispersion rule of data dispersed on server side and analyzes communication data to specify a server to be accessed finally, so that identification information of the specified server is added to packet option of IP layer to thereby omit higher-rank routing processing than IP layer of gateway devices on the way. Consequently, transfer processing of a gateway device at back stage can be performed at high speed and access passing through a network route intended by manager is possible.

Abstract: A load balancing system for performing stable processing and high reliability includes a management device which acquires time information indicating the time required in past processing on each of n processing devices, estimates a required time required for each processing devices to process processing target information based on the time information thereby obtaining an estimated time, and transmits estimated time information indicating a relationship between the estimated time and the processing device to a load balancing device. The load balancing device determines m (1<m<n) processing devices that process the processing target information based on the estimated time information and transmits the processing target information to the designated processing devices.

Abstract: To equalize loads of a hierarchy-type network system, the loads at the lower levels of the system are taken into account. In an arbitrary 3-level hierarchy (n to n+2 levels), a node of the n+1 level obtains, from each of one or more nodes of the n+2 level, load information thereof, calculates the spare resource-amount thereof on the basis of the obtained load information and load information thereof, and transmits the calculated spare resource-amount thereof to a node of the n level. The node of the n level calculates weighting values on the basis of the spare resource-amounts obtained from each of the nodes of the n+1 level, and distributes a received processing request to either one of the nodes of the n+1 level on the basis of the calculated weighting values.

Abstract: A system high in availability which includes plural file servers and local disks is realized. A distributed file system has plural file server clusters that perform any one of file storage, file read, and file deletion according to a request. A gateway device mediates requests between a client device that transmits a request including any one of file storage, file read, and file deletion, and the distributed file system. The gateway device includes a health check function unit that monitors an operating status of the file server cluster, and a data control function unit that receives the request for the distributed file system from the client device, and selects one or more of the file server clusters that are normally in operation, and distributes the request to the selected file server clusters.

Abstract: In a gateway device holding a traffic relay function, the storage cost and the retrieval time for a great amount of access logs are prevented from increasing. The gateway device includes a traffic relay function, a protocol analysis function, a log output function and a log retrieval function. These functions output an access log in compressed or uncompressed form in compliance with a rule for each protocol designated by the manager in accordance with the degree of importance. The retrieval is carried out for the uncompressed file.

Abstract: To inform a terminal whether linked URLs contained in a browsed Web page are subject to browsing restriction, without placing a high load on a URL information database, a relay apparatus acquires a Web page from a Web server in accordance with a request from a terminal, queries a URL database as to a linked URL contained in the Web page, creates link information containing a restriction level to which a linked Web page belongs and the in-page location of a link display, determines a link subject to browsing restriction based on the link information and a predetermined restriction level of the requesting terminal, changes the link display, and sends the Web page with the changed link display to the terminal. Further, the relay apparatus caches the link information. If link information about a Web page acquired in accordance with a request from the terminal exists in a cache, the relay apparatus does not query URL information but uses the link information.

Abstract: A computer system identifies jobs affected by a fault which occurs in any device or mechanism in a storage system to control the execution of such jobs. The computer system includes a DBMS server device, a virtualization switch device, and storage device. Each of these devices holds part of data mapping information on a data mapping path from a particular DB table accessed by a job, through a logical volume for storing the table, to physical disk units for distributively storing data on the volume. The management server device acquires the part of data mapping information from each device, and integrates the data mapping information on a job-by-job basis. When any device or mechanism fails on the data mapping path, the management server device identifies jobs affected by the fault with reference to the data mapping information. The management server device also controls the execution of these jobs.

Abstract: Data writing into a storage device. Data is written into a cache memory in order to implement speeding-up, and also the data is written into a physical disc asynchronously therewith. Since allocation of the cache memory is performed on each writing-request basis, a cut-out processing is required which is executed when none of available areas exists. This results in a problem of necessitating a writing processing time. A DBMS server in advance notifies the storage device that a writing will take place. A manager included in the storage device performs acquisition of the cache memory prior to the writing processing. This allows the data to be stored into the acquired cache memory at the time of the writing processing.
