  • Patent number: 11301181
    Abstract: An electronic apparatus includes a sound collecting device, a storage device, a display device, and a control device. The storage device contains a normal spectrogram representing the operation sound of each of functional units, acquired when low-speed operation is normally performed, and a timing chart indicating a timing that each functional unit operates when the electronic apparatus performs the low-speed operation. The control device analyzes frequency of the sound data collected by the sound collecting device when the electronic apparatus performs the low-speed operation, and outputs the spectrogram, decides whether abnormal noise has occurred, by comparison between the outputted spectrogram and the normal spectrogram, identifies, upon deciding that abnormal noise has occurred, the functional unit that is a source of the abnormal noise, by comparison between the timing chart and the outputted spectrogram, and causes the display device to display a first screen indicating the identified functional unit.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for use in a Simple Network Management Protocol (“SNMP”) computing environment, by which efficiency of computing systems employing SNMP may be improved. An SNMP message is parsed, and the parsed information used to construct a binary tree. By using a binary tree, which is a data object that consumes less memory resources, efficiency of interactions between elements of the SNMP computing environment are improved. A method can include receiving a SNMP request for data. Then, the SNMP request is parsed and a binary tree constructed from the parsed SNMP request. The binary tree includes a plurality of type-length-value nodes. The length value of each non-leaf node is the summation of the length values of all the child nodes below the non-leaf node; and the length value of each leaf node is the length of the data requested.
