Abstract: Provided are an analysis method, an analysis apparatus and a computer readable medium storing a computer program which output a more objective and more appropriate analysis result. The analysis method comprises: reading data from a database stored attribute data of a plurality of organizations including the target organization and other organization and transaction data related to a transaction of the plurality of organizations; deriving an index related to growth of the target organization based on the read data; creating a network connecting the plurality of organizations according to a transactional relationship; deriving a propagation degree of growth from the target organization to the organization which has the transactional relationship with the target organization, based on the created network; and outputting the derived index of the target organization in association with descriptive data of the network and the propagation degree.

Abstract: Provided are a display method, an information apparatus, and a computer readable medium for outputting a more objective and more appropriate analysis result. The display method comprises: displaying a network composed of nodes and edges, the nodes representing the plurality of organizations respectively and the edge representing transactional relationships between the plurality of organizations, with an object indicating direction which highlights the edge according to the number of transactions, the transactional relationship and a transactional direction; and displaying a text or an image, for one of the nodes, indicating an index related to growth derived for a target organization corresponding to the one of the nodes and a propagation degree of growth on the organization which has a transactional relationship with the target organization.

Abstract: An aluminum-diffusion coated steel pipe having an aluminum-coated layer on at least the inner surface of the steel pipe to be in contact with molten metal is used as a gating pipe system in a casting mold comprising a mold body and a gating system for pouring molten metal into the mold body. This aluminum-diffusion coated steel pipe can be further subjected to a secondary heat treatment in a high-temperature oxidizing atmosphere.
