  • Patent number: 12078118
    Abstract: A control device and method controls a vehicle having an internal combustion engine connected to an automatic transmission via a torque converter with a lockup device. The torque of the internal combustion engine is limited the by a torque limit value based on a speed difference between an input rotational speed and an output rotational speed of the torque converter during acceleration in a non-lockup state. The torque-limiting of the internal combustion engine is prohibited torque-limiting upon a prescribed condition being met. The prescribed condition is met by a heating request, during hill climbing/towing, during travel at high vehicle speeds, when the accelerator pedal opening angle exceeds or is equal to a prescribed opening angle, when the torque limit value is greater than a target torque, in a range other than a D range, or in a mode other than normal mode.

  • Patent number: 11936675
    Abstract: An estimation device (10) receives a device ID for identifying a device in a network and an observation event that has occurred in the device from a user terminal (20) as an input. The estimation device (10) acquires attribute information of the device corresponding to the received device ID from a device information storage unit (13c), estimates a risk that the device in the network is subject to an attack on the basis of the acquired attribute information and the received observation event, and outputs the estimated attack risk to the user terminal (20).

  • Patent number: 11768730
    Abstract: A storage unit (14) stores a service procedure constituting business, a service support system used in the service procedure, and a service function constituting the service support system in association with each other, and stores a status determination checklist in which a plurality of conditions for determining whether the service procedure, the service support system, and the service function are normal are represented by a logical combination. A service function determination section (15d) determines whether a service function corresponding to the service support system is functioning normally, by using failure information of a service support system and the status determination checklist. When it is determined that the service function is not functioning normally, a service activity determination section (15e) determines whether a service procedure corresponding to the service function is normally executed, by using the status determination checklist.

  • Patent number: 7436716
    Abstract: A nonvolatile memory includes circuits each having first control transistors, memory transistors, second control transistors and memory transistors repeatedly connected in series in sequence. Inversion layers are formed in the direction intersecting the serial direction with turning on of the control transistors. A selection circuit selects a connection of the inversion layer placed under the first control transistor and its corresponding read/write circuit. The control transistors placed on both sides adjacent to the memory transistor are turned on to perform reading. The first control transistors placed on both sides of the second control transistor as viewed from side to side are turned on to perform writing into the other of the right and left memory transistors via one of the right and left memory transistors. The selection circuit connects the read/write circuit and the inversion layer in such a manner that the same read/write circuit is used in reading and writing for the same memory transistor.
