Abstract: A communication method for a transmission-side node and a reception-side node performing transmission and reception via a communication line in a predetermined cycle includes: causing the transmission-side node and the reception-side node to transmit identification information indicating a status of an event of transmission of object data to the communication line in the predetermined cycle; if a new event of transmission of the object data occurs, causing the transmission-side node to update a value of the identification information and transmit the updated identification information together with the object data to the communication line in the predetermined cycle; and causing the reception-side node to receive the object data and the updated identification information, and upon completion of reception of the object data corresponding to the updated identification information, update a value of the identification information and transmit the updated identification information to the communication line in th

Abstract: The redundant power supply system, in which a predetermined power is supplied via a first DC-DC converter (DDC) to a first battery and a first load of a primary system and the predetermined power is supplied via a second DDC to a second battery and a second load of a secondary system independent of the primary system, includes: a first switching element interposed between the second DDC and the second battery; a first diode which is connected in parallel to the first switching element and performs rectification in a direction from the second battery toward the second DDC; and a control section which turns off the first switching element when the second battery is in a first state where a stored power amount thereof is not smaller than a predetermined first threshold value, and turns on the first switching element when a state other than the first state is assumed.

Abstract: An output processing device according to an embodiment includes reception, setting, decision, and adjusting units. The reception unit receives an output request including (i) output information to be output from at least one of a plurality of output units and (ii) information on a priority for outputting the output information. The setting unit sets a threshold of the priority for each of the plurality of output units. The decision unit decides from among the plurality of output units, based on the threshold set by the setting unit, an output destination of the output information included in the output request. The adjusting unit executes based on the priority, when the output unit, which is the output destination decided by the decision unit, is outputting other output information, an adjustment of whether to output, in an interrupted manner, the output information included in the output request received by the reception unit.

Abstract: An output processing apparatus according to one aspect of an embodiment includes an acquisition unit and an output processing unit. The acquisition unit acquires, from an external apparatus, extended application information. The extended application information includes (i) a display component that is used in operating an extended application included in the external apparatus and (ii) a descriptor that specifies a screen hierarchy of the display component. The output processing unit displays the display component in the screen hierarchy specified by the extended application information acquired by the acquisition unit.

Abstract: An information processing device and an information processing method are provided that do not have to execute a design change in a case where a mode is newly added. An information processing device according to an embodiment includes a processor. The processor sequentially accepts execution requests of a plurality of information processes where two or more pieces of information that indicate a priority are allocated thereto, respectively. Then, the processor executes, in a case where an execution request of a second information process is accepted during execution of a first information process among the plurality of information processes, adjustment between execution of the first information process being continued and the second information process being executed instead of the first information process, based on the two or more pieces of information.
