Abstract: Provided are techniques for providing security for edge computing using location data. A command base location of an entity, an application identifier of the entity, and an expire date for the application identifier are determined. A message generated from the command base location and the application identifier is sent to a location authority. A signed command base location is received based on the command base location being within a jurisdiction of the location authority and a current date being before the expire date. A common key for the command base location is generated using the application identifier and the signed command base location. A public key is generated using the common key. A message is encrypted using the public key to create a cryptographic message. The cryptographic message is sent.

Abstract: An auscultatory sound analysis system that makes it possible to chronologically understand qualitative changes in an auscultatory sound from an auscultation device that contributes to telemedicine avoiding medical practice involving users' close contact, in medical care having a possibility of a contact infection such as COVID-19. The auscultatory sound analysis system converts the auscultatory sound into digital data, further performing a spectrogram conversion, and chronologically outputting, along a time axis, strengths of a signal component at a specific frequency or in a specific frequency range. The system thereby makes it possible to output, to transfer data of, and to display quantitative and temporal changes in high-pitch crepitations caused by interstitial pneumonia from COVID-19 and to thus understand a development status of the disease.

Abstract: A novel therapeutic agent for solid cancer capable of hardening the cellular tissue itself of a solid cancer to induce death or growth inhibition of cancer cells, causing solidification of the tissue, is disclosed. The therapeutic agent for solid cancer is composed of a liquid composition containing as an active component an ethoxy-containing compound capable of undergoing polycondensation in a cellular tissue. The therapeutic agent for solid cancer is capable of hardening the cellular tissue itself of a solid cancer such as lung cancer to induce death or growth inhibition of cancer cells, causing solidification of the tissue. In conventional therapeutic methods, the risk of metastasis due to spreading of cancer cells through the bloodstream cannot be eliminated. In contrast, this therapeutic agent for solid cancer instantly surrounds cancer cells, so that the risk of metastasis can be largely reduced.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a separator assembly for fuel cell includes a separator assembly forming step in which a separator assembly including a first metal separator and a second metal separator each having a protruding bead portion is formed by joining together the surfaces of the first and second metal separators opposite from their respective bead portions protruding, and a preload applying step in which a pair of platens apply a preload in a thickness direction of the separator assembly to a bead seal section formed of one pair of the bead portions, and thereby the bead seal section is plastically deformed. In the preload applying step, the preload applied to a linear portion of the bead seal section is set to be smaller than the preload applied to a curve portion of the bead seal section.

Abstract: A seat lock device includes: a hook member; and a cam plate. The hook member includes: a hook inclined edge surface and is rotationally biased by contact with a striker entering; an engaging groove into which the striker entering fits after crossing the hook inclined edge surface to bring the hook member into a locked position; a restraining pin; and an interlock pin, the cam plate is set to a limiting position when the hook member engages with the striker and is switched to an allowing position when the striker enters and when an operation performed to release an engagement of the striker, and the cam plate includes: a cam surface that contacts with the restraining pin to rotationally bias the hook member; and an interlock surface with which the interlock pin contacts when the hook member has turned from the locked position.

Abstract: A seat lock apparatus includes: a hook member configured to be rotationally biased elastically in a positive direction; an interlocking unit configured to restrict rotation of the hook member in a negative direction; and a cover member configured to cover an operation range of the hook member at one side of the hook member, the cover member including a striker entrance groove that a striker enters. The hook member includes an engagement groove. The engagement groove has both end portions at a side of an opening of the engagement groove, each end portion being beyond the striker entrance groove to overlap the cover member as viewed along a shaft direction of the hook member when the hook member is at a position of being restricted from operating by the interlocking unit.

Abstract: A test apparatus for efficiently and accurately testing a high frequency voltage dependency of an impedance of a test object without damaging the test object. The test apparatus includes a high frequency power source unit, a reference waveform generator, a matching device, an oscilloscope, a control panel, and a main control unit. The test apparatus may boost a high frequency pulse output at a relatively low power from the high frequency power source unit to a voltage required for a high frequency withstand voltage test to be applied to a test object in a state where impedance matching is performed between the high frequency power source unit and the test by the matching device, that is, under a tuned state. Whether the waveform of the voltage applied to the test object is a defined waveform may be concisely monitored and observed by the oscilloscope.

Abstract: A first dummy via pattern having high density is arranged in the vicinity of first and second wirings on a semiconductor device, and a second dummy via pattern having low density is arranged in a distant region from the first and second wirings, with reference to the first dummy via pattern. Accordingly, it is possible to suppress expansion of the file size of layout CAD data due to dummy vias, while complying with a design standard regulated for each semiconductor process, regardless of the presence or absence of vias which connect the first wirings to the second wirings.
