Abstract: A cubic boron nitride sintered material comprising cubic boron nitride grains, a binder phase, and a void, in which a percentage of the cubic boron nitride grains based on the total of the cubic boron nitride grains and the binder phase is 40 vol % to 70 vol %, a percentage of the binder phase based on the total of the cubic boron nitride grains and the binder phase is 30 vol % to 60 vol %, the binder phase includes 10 vol % to 100 vol % of aluminum oxide grains, an average grain size of the aluminum oxide grains is 50 to 250 nm, the cubic boron nitride sintered material comprises 0.001 vol % to 0.100 vol % of one or more first voids, and at least one portion of each of the first voids is in contact with the aluminum oxide grains.

Abstract: A money processing system includes: a money processing machine including a processing machine communication section and a processing machine controller; a first terminal including a first reception section, a first communication section, and a first controller; and a second terminal including a second reception section, a second communication section, and a second controller. The first terminal is a mobile communication terminal. The processing machine communication section transmits state information indicating a state of the money processing machine. In a case where the first reception section receives a consent operation to handle an error in the money processing machine, the first communication section transmits consent information. The error in the money processing machine is indicated by the state information. The second controller causes the second communication section to receive the consent information.

Abstract: Provided is a valuable medium handling apparatus that handles a valuable medium and includes: an acquisition unit that acquires information on an operation result of the valuable medium handling apparatus; and an output unit that outputs, to an external apparatus, first identification information which includes the information on the operation result of the valuable medium handling apparatus acquired by the acquisition unit and which is used for identification of the valuable medium handling apparatus.

Abstract: In order to manage a transaction that is performed to resolve shortage of money in a store, a transaction management system that manages a transaction, in which depositing of money or money change is to be performed, is provided with: an input device configured to input transaction identification information set for the transaction that has been reserved; a money handling apparatus configured to count deposited money to performe the transaction; and a communication unit configured to transmit handling information based on at least one of the transaction identification information inputted by the input device, and depositing information obtained by counting the deposited money by the money handling apparatus, to another device via a network.

Abstract: In order to manage a transaction that is performed to resolve a shortage of money in a store, a transaction management system includes a mobile terminal to make a reservation for a transaction. The mobile terminal includes: a communication unit configured to communicate with another device to receive a message via a network, the message including information on a request for the transaction in which depositing of money or money change is to be performed, and on a benefit that is associated with the transaction and is to be given on condition that the transaction is completed; a display unit configured to display the message; and an operation unit configured to receive a reservation input for reserving the transaction in the message displayed on the display unit. The mobile terminal transmits information on the reservation inputted by using the communication unit via the network.

Abstract: A more appropriate text of a reminder e-mail to be sent to a user who interrupts an input operation is provided in order to prompt the user to resume the input operation. An insurance application system sequentially presents a plurality of input screens, each having input items and being presented to an applicant, and stores, in association with the applicant, input status information indicating the input screen in which the applicant has entered information and a date and a time on which the applicant entered the information, based on information that the applicant has entered in one of the input screens.

Abstract: A money depositing/dispensing device includes an inventory amount obtaining unit, a virtual inventory amount setting unit, and a device inventory amount management unit. The inventory amount obtaining unit is configured to count money to be stored in a storage unit and count money fed from the storage unit, thereby successively obtaining an inventory amount in the storage unit. The virtual inventory amount setting unit is configured to set an inventory amount of banknotes which are not present in the device but should be treated as money present in the device, as a virtual inventory amount. The device inventory amount management unit is configured to manage, as an inventory amount in the device, a sum of the inventory amount in the obtained by the storage unit inventory amount obtaining unit and the virtual inventory amount set by the virtual inventory amount setting unit.
