  • Publication number: 20240104674
    Abstract: According to an embodiment, an information processing apparatus has a first interface connectable to an external server, a second interface connectable to a display, and a processor. The processor is configured to receive order data for dinning orders via the first and second interface and cause the display to display order data in a first area or a second area depending on whether the order data is first-type order data or second-type order data. The first and second areas are separate areas. The first-type order data is for dining orders of a first type, such as delivery orders, and the second-type order data is for dining orders of a second type, such as in-store dining orders.

  • Publication number: 20230395818
    Abstract: A catalyst for an oxygen reduction reaction containing catalyst particles having a shell-core structure containing a PtCo alloy or a PtCoMn alloy as a core, and platinum as a shell layer. A specific plane of a face-centered cubic lattice is formed by a plurality of platinum atoms contained in the shell layer, and a lattice constant of the plane of the face-centered cubic lattice on the catalyst particle surface is 3.70 ? or more and 4.05 ? or less (in a PtCo alloy), or 3.870 ? or more and 4.10 ? or less (in a PtCoMn alloy). A catalyst design method includes a step of calculating, with respect to an orientation plane such as the plane formed by platinum atoms of the shell layer, adsorption energies for an oxygen molecule, an OH group and a water molecule by first-principles calculation based on density functional theory.

  • Publication number: 20200122123
    Abstract: Provided is a catalyst having a core-shell structure (which employs a core comprised of a highly electrochemically stable, relatively inexpensive material and thereby reduces the amount of platinum used, while providing a better cost/performance ratio in catalytic activity as compared to when platinum particles are used as a catalyst) for use in an oxygen reduction reaction (cathode reaction in a fuel cell), and to provide an oxygen reduction method using the catalyst. Provided is a core-shell catalyst for use for an oxygen reduction reaction, including: a core that is comprised of silver; and a shell layer that comprised of platinum, the shell layer being comprised of platinum atoms constituting a (111) plane of or a (001) plane of a face centered cubic lattice, in the shell layer, a nearest neighbor platinum-platinum interatomic distance falling within the range of from 2.81 {acute over (?)} to 2.95 {acute over (?)}.

  • Publication number: 20190065168
    Abstract: An apparatus acquires information identifying first-pieces of software that are candidates for installation, and estimates first files to be installed at a time of installation of the first-pieces of software with reference to file-identification information identifying second files that have been installed at a time of installation of second-pieces of software, where the file-identification information is associated with respective ones of the second-pieces of software, and the first files are estimated based on the file-identification information identifying third files that have been installed in connection with third pieces of software related to the first-pieces of software. The apparatus identifies, from among the first-pieces of software, fourth-pieces of software which include the estimated first files and which have less overlapping of installation of an identical file than a case of installing all the first-pieces of software, and executes installation of the fourth-pieces of software.
