Abstract: Disclosed is a resin-metal bonded body of an aluminum metal member and a thermoplastic resin member, which has improved bonding strength and good durability. Also disclosed is a method for producing such a resin-metal bonded body. Specifically disclosed is a resin-metal bonded body which is obtained by bonding an aluminum metal member with a thermoplastic resin member. In this resin-metal bonded body, the aluminum metal member and the thermoplastic resin member are bonded together by an anodic oxide coating having a film thickness of 70-1500 nm or an anodic oxide coating having a triazine thiol in the inner and upper portions. The anodic oxide coating has an infrared absorption spectrum peak intensity ascribed to OH group at 0.0001-0.16.

Abstract: A transmitting section of the present invention initiates transmission of a second video continuously after completing transmission of a first video being transmitted, in a case that a reproduction position of the first video being transmitted is beyond an end point of the first video, when a video recording start time of a second video stored in a video storage section and a video recording end time of the first video being transmitted coincide within a predetermined time difference.

Abstract: This invention provides a method for measuring human megalin that can be performed in a simpler manner within a shorter period of time than is possible with conventional techniques, and that can also quantify human megalin. This invention also provides a method that enables diagnosis of functional diseases, which are specific to cells, tissues, or organs, in a site-directed manner at an early stage. Measurement of human megalin enables detection of a disease in an organ in which megalin expression is observed.

Abstract: A service provider server has management means which manages a user ID corresponding to a service user and a device IDs corresponding to an information processing terminals of the service user in association with each other.

Abstract: A processing state management apparatus to be connected to a distribution server that carries out a transaction to register or delete content to be distributed, includes a transmitter which transmits a request requesting the distribution server to carry out the transaction, and a state updater which, after the processing state management apparatus has requested the distribution server to carry out the transaction, holds state information indicative of the state of the transaction in the distribution server as representing processing in progress until the processing state management apparatus receives a notification of completion of the transaction from the distribution server.

Abstract: A content distribution system. A distribution management and unauthorized operation management device generates a one-time URL by using URL of content information specified by a user terminal and transmits the one-time URL and bandwidth information concerning the content information to the user terminal.

Abstract: Disclosed is a resin-metal bonded article which is improved in adhesion between a copper component and a PPS or PBT resin. Also disclosed is a method for producing such a resin-metal bonded article. The resin-metal bonded article is obtained by bonding the resin component onto the surface of the copper component through a copper component bonding surface where there is copper oxide in the following range: 10%?Cu2O/(Cu2O+CuO)?75%. Preferably, this resin-metal bonded article further contains a triazine thiol derivative in the resin-component-side bonding surface of the copper component.

Abstract: A video and audio stream is predicted that is to be selected for reception next to a video and audio stream that is being received by the terminal or that is after a video and audio stream that has been selected for reception by the terminal. Resources necessary for delivering the predicted video and audio stream, in addition to resources necessary for the video and audio stream that is being received by the terminal or that has been selected for reception by the terminal, are secured in advance before a user of the terminal selects the next video and audio stream. The predicted video and audio stream is not delivered to the terminal before it coincides with a video and audio stream that is selected at the next zapping.

Abstract: This invention provides a photocatalyst material, which can be produced at low cost without using platinum, particularly a visible light response-type photocatalyst material, a material having a photocatalyst mechanism not possessed by the conventional photocatalyst material, a process for producing the material, and a method for decomposing a contaminant using the material. The photocatalyst material comprises a) an oxide of a first metal and b) an aqua complex salt of a second metal. In this case, for the oxide of a first metal, the redox potential of a conduction band lower end in the oxide is on a rather negative side than 0.2 V (a value as measured at pH=0, vs. reference electrode potential). For the aqua complex salt of a second metal, the redox potential of a second metal ion in the aqua complex salt is on a rather negative side than 3.0 V (a value as measured at pH=0, vs. reference electrode potential).

Abstract: The present invention aims to realize a system and method of reliably performing multicast communication via a bandwidth-guaranteed network, and provides a multicast communication system for performing multicast communication via a bandwidth-guaranteed network, the system including: a multicast proxy response device added with a group address destination identifier; and a multicast client, wherein the multicast proxy response device transmits a session connection request to the group address destination identifier of the multicast proxy response device when starting reception, the multicast proxy response device which has received said session connection request transmits a session connection response to said multicast client, and the multicast client receives multicast data through a bandwidth secured in the bandwidth-guaranteed network by the session connection response.

Abstract: A first communication apparatus executes a session control protocol thereby to determine a session identifier which identifies a session for media-related protocols for transferring the data when the session is established, and thereafter executes the media-related protocols thereby to perform communications for transferring the data on the session. A second communication apparatus executes the session control protocol thereby to establish a session for the media-related protocols with the first communication apparatus, and thereafter executes the media-related protocol thereby to perform communications for transferring the data with the first communication apparatus on the session.

Abstract: A service providing system is connected to a user terminal via a network, acquires a request message described with an upper layer protocol exceeding three layers for requesting desired data and transmitted by the user terminal, and analyzes the content of a body portion of the message. In the case where unwanted information or unusual information is contained in request content, the unwanted information or the unusual information is eliminated by subjecting the request message to a predefined process.
