  • Publication number: 20240073280
    Abstract: An edge configuration server, a multi-access system, a method, and a computer-readable medium are provided that make it possible to relocate an application context between different multi-access edge computing systems. An edge configuration server according to the present disclosure is a server included in a multi-access edge computing (MEC) system, and includes: a reception unit configured to receive, from a source-edge enabler server (S-EES) in the MEC system, an inquiry about a relocation target of an application context; and a transmission unit configured to transmit, to another edge configuration server (ECS) in another MEC system, an inquiry about the relocation target.

  • Patent number: 7037162
    Abstract: An optical fiber code holding structure, includes: an optical adapter and an optical fiber code holding member. An optical connector of an optical fiber is connected to an optical adapter. The optical connector is attached to an end of an optical fiber code of the optical fiber. The optical fiber code holding member has a light shielding device shielding lights emitted from the optical adapter and a holding device holding the optical fiber code.

  • Publication number: 20040224550
    Abstract: An insertion guide mechanism for use when inserting a plug-in unit for connection to a motherboard implemented on a sub-rack is provided to realize a highly accurate positioning during the plug-in unit insertion process, by forming a guide strip which extends toward the plug-in unit integrally with a warp preventive part provided on the motherboard; providing a slit section into which the guide strip is to be inserted without any clearance on a printed wiring board which comprises the plug-in unit; making the thickness dimension of the guide strip and the width dimension of the slit section quasi-equal to each other with great precision; and forming tapered sections on both sides of the mouth of the slit section to guide insertion of the guide strip.

  • Patent number: 6413122
    Abstract: A wrong insertion preventing mechanism for preventing a connector of a wrong board from being connected to a connector mounted on a mother board on a shelf is disclosed. A guide plate is installed at the opening of the shelf and has plural through holes mutually having different shapes. A guide pin which can be inserted into a specific through hole of the through holes of the guide plate is mounted on a board. The board is inserted in a right position on the shelf by the through hole and the guide pin and is never inserted onto the shelf from a wrong position. The guide pin has a projection at the end and the projection can be set to various angles.
