Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium, and network traffic management apparatus that receives an authentication request from a user of a client computing device, the request comprising credentials for the user. A connection is established with a selected one of a plurality of active directory servers using a stored Internet Protocol (IP) address for the selected active directory server. At least a portion of a fully qualified domain name of the selected active directory server is received in response to an anonymous lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP) query sent to the selected active directory server using the established connection. The user of the client computing device is authenticated using the at least a portion of the fully qualified domain name and the credentials.

Abstract: A method, non-transitory computer readable medium and application management computing device includes receiving at an application management computing device a request from a client computing device which requires authentication. A determination is made by the application management computing device whether user network identification information currently is stored for the requesting client computing device. The stored user network identification information for the authentication is obtained by the application management computing device when the user network identification information is determined to be currently stored for the requesting client computing device. The authentication is completed by the application management computing device with the obtained user network identification information.

Abstract: A work vehicle includes a drive source, a travel device, a hydraulic pump, a work implement, a traction force detector, a lift force detector and a controller. The traction force detector is configured to detect traction force of the work vehicle. The lift force detector is configured to detect lift force for raising the work implement. The controller is configured to compare a predetermined threshold and a ratio between the lift force and the traction force, and to execute traction force reduction control for reducing the traction force when an increase in the lift force is required.

Abstract: A work vehicle includes a controller. The controller is configured to determine whether low-load conditions indicating that the work vehicle is in a low-load state are satisfied. The controller is configured to control an engine so that an upper limit value of an output torque of the engine when the low-load conditions are satisfied is made less than when the low-load conditions are not satisfied. Also, the controller is configured to vary a reduction amount of the upper limit value of the output torque of the engine when the low-load conditions are satisfied, in accordance with variation in at least one of vehicle speed, vehicle acceleration, and engine-rotation-speed acceleration, and in accordance with variation in engine rotation speed.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method of capturing and reading a pattern image having three or more pages generated from predetermined information using a capturing section provided in a reading apparatus. The pattern image is configured such that each page includes relevant page information indicating a position of the relevant page and the pages are displayed on a display screen sequentially and successively at a time interval and cyclically and repetitively. The method includes a step of, when two pages of the pattern image have been read, causing the reading apparatus to predict a capturing timing by the capturing section for each remaining unread page from a capturing time interval between the two pages and the relevant page information of each of the two pages, and to perform control such that each remaining unread page of the pattern image is captured and read by the capturing section with the predicted capturing timing.

Abstract: Low bit rate contents data as pre-data corresponding to a series of stream data are preliminarily stored in a mobile phone. In order to reproduce certain contents, a transmission request of a high bit rate contents data block having the same contents as those of the low bit rate contents data block is transmitted to the delivery source indicated by the transfer source information added to the pre-data upon reproduction thereof. If the high bit rate contents data block is received from the delivery source, the high bit rate contents data block is reproduced. Meanwhile, if the high bit rate contents data block is unreceived from the delivery source, the low bit rate contents data block having the same contents as those of the high bit rate contents data block is detected from the pre-data so as to be reproduced in place thereof.

Abstract: A design professional such as an interior designer running a browser program at a client computer (i) optionally causes a digital image of a room, or a room model, or room images to be transmitted across the world wide web to a graphics server computer, and (ii) interactively selects furnishings from this server computer, so as to (iii) receive and display to his or her client a high-fidelity high-quality virtual-reality perspective-view image of furnishings displayed in, most commonly, an actual room of a client's home. Opticians may, for example, (i) upload one or more images of a client's head, and (ii) select eyeglass frames and components, to (iii) display to a prospective customer eyeglasses upon the customer's own head. The realistic images, optionally provided to bona fide design professionals for free, promote the sale to the client of goods which are normally obtained through the graphics service provider, profiting both the service provider and the design professional.
