Abstract: An object of the present invention is to minimize a likelihood of the vehicle becoming in an inoperable state even in an event of a program update failure. An in-vehicle device 6 includes: a program storage unit 64 that stores a program; an activation processing unit 65 that activates the program; and an update processing unit 63 that receives an update program 21 and an update reason 22 of the program and updates the program with the update program 21. In a case where the update of the program has failed, the activation processing unit 65 activates the program in an activation mode corresponding to the update reason 22.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a receiving section configured to receive an input of a usage purpose of the information processing device from a user, an identifying section configured to identify a procedure including one or more steps necessary for realizing the usage purpose, a first screen generating section configured to generate an operating screen for completing one step in the identified procedure, and a second screen generating section configured to generate an information screen including information regarding the identified procedure.

Abstract: In response to a selection of a program, a board image display control section sets program related information associated with the selected program in a displayable state. An execution start managing section starts the program in response to reception of a request to start the program, the program related information associated with the program being set in the displayable state. A stop and end managing section ends an already started program when a given condition is satisfied at a time of starting the program by the execution start managing section. A setting of program related information associated with the ended program is maintained in a displayable state even after the program is ended by the stop and end managing section.

Abstract: A beverage dispenser is disclosed that includes a cleaning adapter configured to form a cleaning space in which each syrup nozzle and a dilution water supply section are located between the cleaning adapter and a multivalve and to clean each syrup nozzle by dilution water discharged from the dilution water supply section. A gap between the cleaning adapter and the multivalve is sealed above a nozzle distal end portion of each syrup nozzle and the dilution water supply section. The cleaning adapter includes discharge port 71 that discharges the dilution water after cleaning each syrup nozzle from a position higher than the nozzle distal end portion of each syrup nozzle.

Abstract: In an electronic device provided with a resume function, a timer outputs a predetermined signal if a measured time value becomes a set time. Upon receiving the predetermined signal from the timer, a state control unit executes a resume process. A time information receiving unit receives time information that specifies a time interval, at which an application executes a predetermined process. A time interval retaining unit retains a time interval T for restoring the application to an executable state. A defining unit registers a set time with the timer on the basis of the received time information and the time interval T.

Abstract: A distributed processing system includes plural nodes each provided with a processor and communicably connected to each other. A task information obtaining unit obtains antecedent dependency between tasks. A node information obtaining unit obtains a time constraint imposed on the tasks. A start time computing unit computes an absolute earliest start time at which a task can be started and an absolute latest start time allowed in order to complete the task within the time constraint, by referring to the time constraint. A node selector selects a destination node to which a target task not yet allocated to a node should be allocated, by referring to the absolute earliest start time and the absolute latest start time. A task placement unit causes the task to be executed in the selected node.
