  • Publication number: 20170220450
    Abstract: An analysis program recorded in a recording medium causes a computer to hold, when executing an intermediate code that is a compiled code in which an element in a source code is replaced with a metafunction that changes the element to a mutant, a set of mutation descriptors indicating a change in the mutant with respect to a mutation operation corresponding to the metafunction. The analysis program further causes the computer to evaluate a command of each of the mutation descriptors, select at least one mutation descriptor having a same command evaluation result from the set of the mutation descriptors, and calculate a direct product of the selected mutation descriptor and one of the mutation operation and a first state that is the set of the mutation descriptors before evaluation of the commands, thereby generating a second state.

  • Patent number: 9689789
    Abstract: A first measured value of a specific physical quantity at a target portion is correlated with a damage evaluation index to calculate a damage degree corresponding to the first measured value. The specific physical quantity is measured at least once at a position corresponding to the first measurement position in another time period having a different usage elapsed time from that of the first measurement, and these second and subsequent measured values are correlated with damage degrees calculated based on temporal changes corresponding to the second and subsequent measurements. A new damage evaluation index is approximately calculated based on a relationship between the first, second, and subsequent measured values and the damage degrees corresponding to the first, second, and subsequent measured values.

  • Patent number: 9606508
    Abstract: An electronic timepiece includes a second hand, a dial having a display area provided with a plurality of markings corresponding to the second hand, and a display controller that controls driving operation of the second hand to cause the second hand to display calendar information. The display area, when viewed from a timepiece front side, is divided by two straight lines that pass through a rotating shaft of the second hand and are perpendicular to each other into four divided areas. Each of the divided areas is related to years elapsed since a leap year, and each of the markings is related to the month. The display controller, when causing the second hand to display the calendar information, causes the second hand to point at one of the markings in one of the four divided areas to display the elapsed years and the month.

  • Publication number: 20170070074
    Abstract: Provided is a power supply apparatus including a power storage module, a DC-AC inverter, a bypass circuit, and a controller. The DC-AC inverter converts output of the power storage module into AC power. The bypass circuit directly transmits the AC power. The controller switches between a discharge mode for supplying output of the DC-AC inverter to a load, and a bypass mode for supplying output of the bypass circuit to the load. A threshold for switching between the discharge mode and the bypass mode is set to a range that enables the power storage module to provide output in an overload state.
