Abstract: Search means (101) of a search system (1) connected to a terminal (30) via a network executes a search based on a search condition input from the terminal (30). Determination means (102) determines, based on stock information on each of a plurality of items included in search results obtained by the search means (101), whether there is a stock of each item. Advertisement acquisition means (104) acquires at least one advertisement of an item that satisfies the search condition and has a stock, based on results of determination by the determination means (102). Display control means (105) displays, on a search result screen, at least one item in stock among the search results and at least one advertisement.

Abstract: AN information providing server SA determines whether a display condition is satisfied, the display condition being a condition for displaying advertising content of a specific advertiser on a first advertising space which is set on a medium that can be displayed on a terminal. And then, the information providing server SA switches, in a case where the display condition is not satisfied, the first advertising space to a second advertising space to display advertising content of an advertiser who wins a bid on the basis of bid information.

Abstract: A management apparatus that manages a network apparatus having a packet control function, wherein the network apparatus has configuration information that sets the control function, and wherein the management apparatus has: parameter information that manages settings of the control function of the network apparatus; and an inconsistent data detection module that obtains the configuration information from the network apparatus, and upon comparison of the configuration information with the parameter information, detects, as inconsistent data, information that does not match.

Abstract: A management computer coupled to a network device comprises: a processor; and a storage unit that stores effect determination information that defines conditions for determining an effect of an operation by the network device, the conditions being applied to a combination of setting items for the network device, and wherein the processor executes: to select, from among the combination of setting items, a specific combination matching a combination of a first setting item for the network device and a second setting item associated with the first setting item; to determine whether or not the combination of the first setting item and the second setting item satisfies the conditions applied to the specific combination if the specific combination is selected; to identify the presence or absence of an effect resulting from an operation of the network device on the basis of determination results; and to output identification results.

Abstract: A network management apparatus is designed so that when reassigning the existing address, the network management apparatus extracts a link with the largest link cost from among links comprising the network based on the network configuration information and specifies a flow routed though the extracted link based on the statistic information; when receiving a path change request and a via link request to request a via link with respect to the specified flow from an external terminal, the network management apparatus selects either one of addresses of an address pair of the specified flow as a change target address; and when changing the selected change target address, the network management apparatus changes the change target address to a candidate address to be assigned by selecting an address, which is routed through a link included in the via link request and has not been assigned, as the candidate address to be assigned.

Abstract: In an MB management system, a user who wishes to use a network service sends MB requirements from a user terminal to a network management apparatus, which is managed by a provider who provides a network service. The network management apparatus returns to the user terminal abstract models as a guide for the performance and the like of MBs that are available in the network service and that meet the MB requirements. The user operates the user terminal to select an MB that the user is to use from among the provided abstract models. The user also receives via the user terminal from the network management apparatus the operational status of an instance of the MB selected from among the abstract models. This allows the user to compare the MB requirements presented by the user and the actual operational status of the MB instance.
