Abstract: Preventing blood flow artifacts from being increased in an imaging plane allows reduction of the blood flow artifacts in the cross section subsequently excited. In the imaging using a spin-echo (SE) pulse sequence, an excitation width of a 90° pulse is extended from an imaging plane to one side. This one side indicates a downstream side of the blood flow with respect to a vessel of interest. In imaging multiple slices, the order of measuring the multiple imaging slices is set along the direction in which the width is extended.

Abstract: An opening end of an inboard section includes: an end surface composed of a plane positioned farthest from the center of a differential device in the axial direction and perpendicular to the axial direction; a ledge positioned adjacent to the end surface in the circumferential direction of the opening end and closer to the center than the end surface in the axial direction; and a tapered section in a slope shape formed continuing to the inner diameter side of the ledge at the opening end, slanting toward the inner diameter side of the opening end and approaching the center. Lubricating oil supplied to the opening end of the inboard section flows to the tapered section via the ledge and flows from the tapered section into a spiral groove formed on an inner periphery of the inboard section.

Abstract: If the operations manager makes configuration changes of the log database through configuration management interface, the configuration management interface records configuration information thereof on an management database. Furthermore, when log data of a monitoring target device are collected in a log collection unit through the log database, a log data volume analysis unit reads utilization information of data volume of the log database, and records the reading on a management database. A configuration changes proposal generating unit automatically generates configuration changes proposal of the log database based on the information recorded on the management database.

Abstract: A database server includes a database capable of storing multi-version data with respect to various time-series data, and a database management server that manages the database. The database management server includes search means capable of designating a merge policy defining a policy whether mixing of the multi-version data is acceptable in addition to a search condition of the database. The search means generates a result of merging of the multi-version data in the time range contained in the search condition as the data acquisition history so as to be recorded in the database.

Abstract: In a hybrid drive apparatus, a first planetary gear mechanism transmits rotation of a first main shaft to which the engine driving force is inputted to a main speed-changing part at an equal speed due to engagement of a first clutch, and transmits the rotation of the first main shaft to the main speed-changing part and a first motor/generator at an increased speed due to engagement of a second clutch. This enables the range of gear ratios of the transmission to be extended and the degree of freedom in setting a gear ratio or a step ratio to be increased, and enhances the power generation efficiency by rotating the first motor/generator at a high speed without using a special speed increase device.

Abstract: A failure factor can be promptly carved up by effectively prioritizing the ports to which MEPs are assigned in a condition where the maximum number of MEPs is limited. A network monitoring server monitors a network having plural switch devices. The plural switch devices each have a communication confirmation function using transmission and reception of a monitoring frame between ports. An upper limit is set to the number of ports to which maintenance end points (MEPs) are assignable among the respective ports of the plural switch devices. The network monitoring server calculates, for each of the plural switch devices, a monitoring priority corresponding to the probability of failures of a device connected to a network path including the port or the port, and generates data for displaying the calculated monitoring priority of each port in association with each port.

Abstract: There is provided a history database for recording a history of a data operation with respect to a database. A workflow generation server quantifies a relation between the multiple data operations that are recorded in that operation history. A data definition and a history of an operation schedule on data in the database are used for this quantification. Then, a workflow is generated based on a numerical value that results from the quantification. Then, the workflow generation server compares the generated workflow and workflow data in a workflow database and performs recommendation of the workflow that has to be newly defined and recommendation of an amendment to the existing workflow, based on the result of the comparison.
