Abstract: A communication device may include a first type of interface and a second type of interface. The communication device may execute the communication of object data with a mobile device using the second type of interface after executing a specific process for causing the communication device to shift to a communication-enabled state, in a case where it is determined that the communication device is not currently in the communication-enabled state. Also, the communication device may execute the communication of the object data with the mobile device using the second type of interface without executing the specific process, in a case where it is determined that the communication device is currently in the communication-enabled state.

The decoder unit supplies a gate signal which activates a gate signal line corresponding to the pixel electrode part based on the gate selection signal, generates a source signal which activates a source signal line corresponding to the pixel electrode part based on the source selection signal, and supplies the image data to the pixel electrode part corresponding to the activated source signal line.

Abstract: The computer system executes environment classification of classifying a plurality of subsystems, each being a physical or virtual computer system, into one or more environment groups being one or more groups. The computer system stores classification result data which is data representing a relationship between the environment group and the subsystems belonging to the environment group. The computer system selects, from the classification result data, the environment group to which the subsystem having undergone a problem belongs. The computer system generates a reproduction subsystem which is a virtual subsystem virtually reproducing the subsystem for each of the subsystems belonging to the selected classification result group. The computer system applies the countermeasure to at least one reproduction subsystem for the purpose of verifying the countermeasure for the problem.

Abstract: The computer system executes a storage program that operates on an OS to provide a logical volume to a host. The computer system includes volume management information including information on a storage function to be applied to the logical volume provided by the storage program. Upon receiving an I/O request for the logical volume from the host, the OS determines whether it is necessary for the storage program to perform an I/O process on the basis of the information on the storage function to be applied to the logical volume by referring to the volume management information. When it is determined that the I/O process is necessary, the OS communicates with the storage program and the storage program executes the I/O process. When it is determined that it is not necessary for the storage program to perform the I/O process, the OS outputs an I/O response to the host.

Abstract: A storage system having a processor that provides a volume to be an object of an input/output (I/O) request and executes I/O in response to the I/O request includes a valid volume provided to be the object of the I/O request, and an invalid volume not being provided to be the object. A plurality of invalid volumes includes invalid volumes of a plurality of types of capacities. The processor selects, when a volume creation request is received, the invalid volume on the basis of capacity according to the volume creation request to convert the selected invalid volume into a valid volume, and provides the validated valid volume.

Abstract: By assigning a physically continuous memory area to a virtual storage apparatus operated on an OS, the performance of the virtual storage apparatus is secured. A processor operates an OS, and the processor executes a plurality of processes on the OS. The plurality of processes includes a first virtual storage apparatus. The first virtual storage apparatus executes an I/O process, and includes a cache for storing data that is subjected to the I/O process. The processor assigns a resource in a computer to the plurality of processes, and the processor creates area information that indicates physical addresses assigned to the processes in a memory. On the basis of the area information, the processor selects a continuous area, which is a physically continuous area from the memory and assigns the continuous area to the cache.
