Abstract: Inputting data necessary for designing an IT system leads a throughput evaluation part to draft a system idea meeting a design standard value for throughput and leads a reliability evaluation part to draft the system idea meeting a design standard value for failure probability. A cost evaluation part evaluates a cost of the system idea, while a cost judgment part judges whether there exists a system idea whose cost evaluated by the cost evaluation part is within an allowable range or not. When the cost judgment part judges that there is no system idea, a reconfiguration part reconfigures the design standard value for throughput, the design standard value for failure probability, and the allowable range of cost in the input data part, and the reconfiguration part carries out calculations repeatedly until there can be drafted a system idea whose cost is within the allowable range.

Abstract: This disaster risk assessment system assesses a difference between a disaster-time direct loss amount in current equipment and disaster-time direct loss amount in equipment after taking measures and compares the difference with a disaster measures equipment cost for presenting decision making information on disaster measures. As assessment requirements, the system also takes a business value loss amount into consideration and presents an insurance premium that is required to cover an expected disaster-time loss amount by an insurance payment.

Abstract: A fast reactor comprises a reactor vessel to be arranged vertically in a reactor building, a reactor vessel upper structure disposed on an upper portion in the reactor vessel, a drum structure suspended from the reactor vessel structure into a central portion in the reactor vessel so as to define an annular portion between an outer periphery of the drum structure and an inner periphery of the reactor vessel, and a reactor core disposed in the drum structure. A reflector is disposed in the reactor vessel and is vertically movable along an outer periphery of the reactor core. The reflector may be composed of grain materials movable by gravity. An intermediate heat exchanger is further disposed at a portion above the reactor core and an electromagnetic pump is disposed in the reactor vessel for circulating coolant. The reactivity of the reactor core can be controlled by the reflector to thereby reduce the neutron irradiation amount to the reactor vessel.
