Abstract: A polymer compound for use in an electroluminescent device may improve the durability (particularly the luminescence lifespan). The polymer compound includes Structural Unit (A) represented by Chemical Formula (1). In Chemical Formula (1), the definition of each substituent is as described in the detailed description.

Abstract: Upon receiving, from application software, a first request for writing data stored in a first storage-region of the application software, an apparatus acquires a second storage-region, and copies the data to the second storage-region. The apparatus transmits, to one of drivers associated with each of redundant storage-devices on which mirroring is to be performed, a second request for writing the copied data to the each redundant storage-device, transmits, to the application software, a response indicating that writing of the data has been successfully performed in a case where a data-writing process for at least one of the redundant storage-devices is completed when a predetermined time has elapsed after the second request is transmitted to the drivers and before a retry-over time at which retry of the data-writing process is performed predetermined times, and excludes, from the redundant storage-devices, a storage-device for which the data-writing process is not completed.

Abstract: An information processor coupled to a storage apparatus that stores information, includes: a creation unit configured to create a snapshot of a file system that manages first information stored in the storage apparatus and to output the snapshot to the storage apparatus; a writing unit configured to write second information stored in cache memory onto the storage apparatus after the snapshot has been created; and a replication instruction unit configured to instruct the storage apparatus to create a replication of the first information stored in the storage apparatus after the second information has been written and the snapshot.

Abstract: A semiconductor integrated circuit device reduces resources of an external memory and an amount of data of test patterns. A semiconductor integrated circuit device comprises: a terminal BSIN to input serial data from a boundary scan register circuit of the former stage, a terminal BSOUT to output the serial data to a boundary scan register circuit of the latter stage, a flip-flop circuit 21 as a first register to store data for a boundary scan and connected to the terminal BSIN, flip-flop circuits 24a and 24b as a second register to store configuration data for an IO circuit and connected to the terminal BSIN, and a selector 27 to select data output from the first register and the second register and output the data to the terminal BSOUT.
