Abstract: A method in support of potential future delivery of digital content items over a data network includes obtaining at a server over the data network at least one digital content item for potential future delivery and delivery metadata pertaining to potential future delivery of the digital content item. The delivery metadata includes at least one recipient and a monitoring interval. The digital content item is stored by a processor of the server, and, during the monitoring interval, a user account associated with the digital content item is monitored by the processor for an occurrence of an inactivity benchmark. Upon a lapse of the monitoring interval without an occurrence of the inactivity benchmark, the digital content item is delivered to the at least one recipient. A system can be constructed to implement the method described herein.

Abstract: In a failure diagnosis apparatus for a refrigerating cycle, a plurality of instrumentation amounts concerning the refrigerant such as the pressure and temperature of the refrigerating cycle apparatus or other instrumentation amounts are detected, the state quantities such as composite variables are acquired by making the arithmetic operation on these instrumentation amounts, and whether the apparatus is normal or abnormal is judged employing the arithmetic operation results. If learning is made during the normal operation, a current state is judged, and if learning is made by compulsorily performing the abnormal operation, or if the abnormal operating condition is operated during the current operation, a failure foretaste such as a critical operation can be made from a change in the Mahalanobis distance. Thereby, the secure diagnosis can be implemented with a simple constitution.
