Abstract: Allowing an execution of an allocation processing and allocation release the processing of a device to a service program during an execution of the service program. Under control of an execution management section (1112), in case device transmission data received is device transmission data satisfying a predetermined transition condition of a state transition, a service state of the service program is updated. Then, under control of an execution management section (1112), a notification of the service state update is transmitted to a service context determination section (113). Under control of the service context determination section (113), whether there is a change in a service context to be executed on the service program based on service context information is confirmed.

Abstract: A surrounding area monitoring apparatus receives visual field information about a driver of a surrounding vehicle of a self vehicle, and decides whether the self vehicle is outside the visual field of the surrounding vehicle or not in accordance with the visual field information. Accordingly, it can learn the present dynamic visual field range of the driver of the surrounding vehicle actually traveling around the self vehicle, and obtain more accurate visual field range. Thus, it can appropriately give information that is really necessary and suppress giving unnecessary information.

Abstract: The present invention provides an anti-human Notch4 antibody or a Notch4 binding fragment thereof that may have neutralizing activity against human Notch4, as well as a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same as the active ingredient. The present inventors obtained a mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody that has high neutralizing activity and binding affinity towards human Notch4 and determined the complementarity determining region (CDR) sequence of the mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody. This enabled the production of a humanized antibody comprising the variable region of heavy and light chains as well as the CDR sequence of the mouse anti-human Notch4 antibody.
