Abstract: A shift control apparatus for an automatic transmission having an automatic shift mode for performing a shift operation by determining a gear position or gear ratio to be set according to a vehicle running condition and a manual shift mode for performing a shift operation instructed by a manual operation by an operator. The shift control apparatus includes a region determining unit for determining whether the present running condition is in a first region where downshift is performed at the present gear position or gear ratio in the automatic shift mode or in a second region higher in vehicle speed than the first region, and an upshift allowing unit for allowing upshift instructed by the manual operation by the operator in the manual shift mode when the region determining unit has determined that the present running condition is in the second region.

Abstract: A shift control apparatus for an automatic transmission having an automatic shift mode and a manual shift mode. The shift control apparatus includes a shift characteristic changing unit for changing the first shift characteristic to a second shift characteristic such that a region for outputting an upshift signal is displaced toward higher vehicle speeds after performing a downshift by the manual operation, a delaying unit for delaying the output of the upshift signal by a predetermined time period according to the vehicle running condition when the vehicle running condition becomes a condition where the upshift signal is to be output according to the second shift characteristic, and an upshift allowing unit for once allowing the output of the upshift signal when the above condition continues after the elapse of the predetermined time period determined by the delaying unit.

Abstract: An apparatus for offering future event information to a present event ticket holder includes—a user database for storing predetermined information associated with present event tickets, a ticket database for storing event information associated with present and future events, and a unit for determining the status of the present event tickets. A follow-up program extracts a select present event ticket having a predetermined status from the user database, and event information of a select future event based on event information associated with the select present event ticket from the ticket database. The follow-up program then transmits the event information associated with the select future event to the holder of the select present event ticket.

Abstract: A shift control apparatus for an automatic transmission having an automatic shift mode for performing a shift operation by using a first shift characteristic such that a gear ratio to be set is set according to a vehicle running condition and a manual shift mode for performing a shift operation instructed by a manual operation by an operator.

Abstract: A set-up supporting server stores a model table which is used for conversion of a translator of a client for order receiver and a set-up supporting tool for correcting the model table and setting up into the translator. A set-up processing module of the client for order receiver receives a down-load of the model table 72 and set-up supporting tool in response to a supporting request to the set-up supporting server and automatically executes a set-up process of the translator 36 on the basis of an input of predetermined individual information.

Abstract: A questionnaire collection method capable of efficiently collecting questionnaires on products or services provided by a plurality of corporations and presenting the results of questionnaire responses for comparison between the products or services provided by different corporations. Questions to be adopted in a questionnaire on each of products or services, which are provided by a plurality of corporations and which are subjects of questionnairing, are registered (Step S1). Customers' responses to the questions in the questionnaires on the products or services are accepted via a network, following a uniform input procedure (Step S2). The results of responses to the questions are displayed for comparison between products or services provided by different corporations (Step S3).

Abstract: A relevance information setting unit imparts the same relevance code to related elements in a standard message to indicate a relevance. A mapping processing unit displays a standard message and a local message side by side on a display and while referring to the relevance codes imparted to the standard elements, defines link relations with local elements on the display to create a conversion table for use in a message format conversion in a conversion unit. A link line appears when a standard element and a local element are selected to be linked.
