Abstract: Provided are a livestock sensor device, a livestock astasia inference method, a livestock astasia inference program, and a livestock management system that are capable of preventing damage to stockbreeders. According to an embodiment of the present technology, there is provided a livestock sensor device including a postural-state determination unit, a state inference unit, a transmission unit, and a casing. The postural-state determination unit determines in which of a prostrate state and a non-prostrate state a livestock animal has been on a basis of output values from an acceleration sensor. The state inference unit infers whether or not the livestock animal has developed astasia on a basis of a duration of the prostrate state. The transmission unit transmits, to a server, an astasia-notification data item indicating that an inference that the livestock animal has developed the astasia is made when the inference that the livestock animal has developed the astasia is made.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an input unit and a control unit. The input unit is configured to receive an input from a user. The control unit is configured to control a display to display an image and an image mark, move over the image to a position indicated by the input unit, and display an indicator showing an amount of time until the image mark is fixed to a current location of the image mark on the image.

Abstract: A portable terminal forms the same group with one or more portable terminals. The portable terminal receives photographed images that are photographed by the other portable terminals belonging to the same group and displays the received photographed images. The disclosure of this technology is applicable to, for example, an electronic apparatus such as a portable telephone.

Abstract: A workshop facility designing and operating method of the invention is for authoring a virtual workshop that is a data model of a workshop newly organized in part or in its entirety. After the organization, simulating means causes the virtual workshop to perform a quasi-production activity to verify a production state and a physical distribution state. An actual workshop is then constructed that matches with the verified virtual workshop. The constructed actual workshop is remote monitored and a result of this monitoring is compared with a result of verification during a virtual workshop verification process. In this way, verification of the workshop in its entirety can be performed simply so that workshop deployment such as a new set-up of a production line and change in process step of the existing line can be carried out efficiently and quickly in a short time. Remote monitoring of the constructed workshop can also be performed properly.

Abstract: In a nuclear power plant construction, a reinforced concrete containment vessel is installed on a foundation base mat and a reactor building is then installed around the reinforced concrete containment. The reactor building is provided with a plurality of concrete bodies, as floor slabs, projecting inwardly from an inner wall surface of the reactor building with spaces between the projected ends of the concrete bodies and an outer surface of the reinforced concrete containment vessel in vertically different levels in the reactor building. A precast concrete slab is arranged in each of the spaces between the concrete body of the reactor building and the outer surface of the reinforced concrete containment vessel with spaces therebetween. The precast concrete slab and the projected end of the concrete body of the reactor building and the precast concrete slab and the reinforced concrete containment vessel are joined with the joint assemblies.

Abstract: A machine for transferring a plurality of tape cassettes one by one. A magazine container containing a plurality of tape cassettes in an aligned manner is set in a receiving part. The receiving part is reversed for discharging the tape cassettes simultaneously. A cassette transferring mechanism receives the discharged tape cassettes in an aligned condition, transferring the tape cassettes one by one towards a tape treating machine.
