Abstract: A powder of a titanate compound of an alkaline earth metal (MTiO3: M is one or two or more selected from the group consisting of Ba, Sr, Ca and Mg), having an average particle diameter of 50 nm or smaller, an average aspect ratio of 1.0 to 1.2 and a refractive index of 1.8 to 2.6, is useful as a high-refractive index powder.

Abstract: A method and system for relaying communications between a communication terminal and a server. The relay apparatus receives from the communication terminal an access request for a service to be performed by the server. The access request identifies the server and the service, designates use of an inter-server encrypted communication system, specifies performing authentication of the relay apparatus, and specifies an authentication server to issue ticket information including an identification (ID) character string that identifies the relay apparatus. The relay apparatus receives the ticket information from the authentication server. The relay apparatus, encrypts the access request and transmits the encrypted access request and the ticket information to the server. The server uses the ticket information to authenticate the relay apparatus. The relay apparatus decrypts the access reply and transmits the decrypted access reply to the communication apparatus.

Abstract: Social user script service by service proxy receives a request from a user for an electronic document, and selects one or more user scripts from the plurality of user scripts that are authored by an experienced user and stored. The selected user scripts are embedded into the requested electronic document and transmitted to the user. The service proxy selects the user scripts to embed based on the user registration information.

Abstract: Efficient access processing is performed when the service level of a server apparatus is low. There is provided a proxy apparatus including: a request sending unit for sending a first server request message based on a first client request message received from an information terminal to a destination server apparatus; a server status information storage unit for storing timeout information of the destination if a timeout of a first server request message is detected; a request monitoring unit for deciding to time out a second client request message received from an information terminal if timeout information of the destination of the second client request message is stored; and a proxy timeout response unit for sending a timeout response message corresponding to the second client request message that is decided to be timed out to the requesting information terminal.

Abstract: A web-crawling robot retrieves information from a web server that tailors information content to the capability of an accessing device. A link deriving unit in a proxy server for relaying data exchanged between the robot and the site analyzes a response from the site to the robot, and acquires information on a user agent corresponding to a particular kind of content of a link destination. On the basis of the information, a user agent information editing unit in the proxy server adds user agent information to the content retrieval request from the web-crawling robot to the site so as to disguise it as a content retrieval request issued from a given user agent, thereby acquiring a response corresponding to capabilities of the user agent.

Abstract: To provide a telephone information service system capable of providing good operability and rendering information services containing attractive services without placing any burdens on a user. A telephone information service system is disclosed, which allows a user to select and use various service items from the menu of a host system by telephone. The telephone information service system comprises first and second functions in the host system. The first function is a trigger restarting function for dynamically changing a menu composition for the user by bringing a service item hit by a trigger to the head of the menu when a trigger condition is established for a service item selected by the user, and starting up the target service item by notifying the user of the establishment of the trigger condition.
