Abstract: Disclosed are a human serum albumin mutant that can be linked to a physiologically active protein to increase the stability of the protein in the blood, as well as a resulting protein produced by linking with the mutant. The protein produced by linking with the mutant consists of a human serum albumin mutant comprising the amino acid sequence set forth as SEQ ID NO:3 or an amino acid sequence that, in comparison with it, lacks not more than 10 amino acid residues and/or has not more than 10 amino acid residues replaced, with the proviso that the asparagine residue occurring at position 318 and the threonine at position 320 from the N-terminus of the amino acid sequence set forth as SEQ ID NO:3 are preserved and linked by peptide bonds via a single amino acid residue (X) except proline placed between those two amino acid residues, and a physiologically active protein linked to the mutant.

The fusion protein comprises amino acid sequences of an anti-human transferrin receptor antibody that recognizes an amino acid sequence selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID NOs:1, 2, and 3, and of other protein that is bound thereto on the C-terminal side.

Abstract: This server for distributing messages quickly detects a performance decline in a downstream server by using a method for keeping, for each distribution-destination server, a threshold such as a connection number and a time interval separate from a response timeout, and determining that performance has declined when the threshold is exceeded. In addition, the present invention improves system availability by identifying a server group in which performance has declined on the basis of a correlation pertaining to inter-server cooperative processing, when a distribution server exhibits a decline in performance, and by the distribution server distributing a message to a server not exhibiting a decline in performance.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a distributed processing system having a master node and a plurality of worker nodes. Each worker node has an assigned identifier. A worker node caches in its own memory first output data, which is the result of the execution of a first task, and copies said first output data to another worker node. The master node selects, on the basis of the identifier information of the first worker node, a worker node to which to assign a second task, wherein the first output data is used as input data.

Abstract: In a mail system, the present invention implements a mail gateway that prevents data from being lost when a server fails and provides high delivery capability. In a mail system, the mail delivery performance of the mail gateway is increased by the communication method and data storage method used between the mail gateway and storage systems. More specifically, the mail gateway and storage system maintain a mail, which should be maintained by the mail gateway, in the volatile memory of the mail gateway and storage system. The mail that may be lost by a failure and important data such as accounting information are written in the nonvolatile memory of the storage system. In addition, the storage system processes multiple accesses to the nonvolatile memory at a time to speedily write data into the nonvolatile memory.

Abstract: In a mail gateway, a collection part collects, for each specific information contained in a mail entered into a resending queue, statistical information of the specific information. A provisional queue creation part creates a provisional queue based on the collected number of the statistical information. The provisional queue handles a mail which has a possibility of causing congestion. This can prevent a normal queue from entering into a congestion state. Also in the mail gateway, if the congestion state is brought about in the provisional queue which performs a send of a mail containing the specific information, a mail sort part restricts an entry of a mail into the provisional queue. This can limit an influence of the congestion state only to the provisional queue.

Abstract: To solve the problem with mobile phone carriers that increasing mail traffic increases storage capacity of a mail server and network load, a relay server which relays a mail transfer (SMTP communication) and a mail fetch (IMAP communication) is installed in a carrier facility network. The relay server compresses a mail including a header transferred from a mail transfer server, adds a new header to encapsulate the mail, and transmits the encapsulated mail to an IMAP server as a compressed mail. In response to a mail fetch request from a communication terminal, the relay server decapsulates and restores the compressed mail fetched from the IMAP server, and transmits the restored mail to the communication terminal. The relay server changes parameters such as the mail size, so that no inconsistency of IMAP commands occurs in compressing/restoring the mail.
