Abstract: A component manufacturing system includes a main base, a first production base and a second production base. The main base designs a common wire harness and optional wire harnesses. The main base has a first order function of determining the number of common wire harnesses to be produced based on temporary order information and placing an order with the first production base, and a second order function of acquiring order confirmation information from the customer at a timing closer to a delivery date than the temporary order information and placing an order with the second production base for the completed wire harness based on the confirmation information.

Abstract: The radiator pipe holding structure is equipped with a square cylindrical shaped air guide duct. The air guide duct is located between the radiator and the front grille. The air guide duct extends in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. Furthermore, the air guide duct surrounds the front surface of the radiator. The air guide duct also has a duct wall. The duct wall is part of a square cylindrical shape. The duct wall has a retaining portion. The retaining portion holds the cylindrical pipe. The portion has a partially cut bellows. The shape of the ridge and valley portions is an open ring with the ridge and valley portions partially removed.

Abstract: A wire harness designing method includes, extracting, as a primary common component, a component commonly provided in the wire harnesses of all the product numbers, and determining a configuration of a basic part; classifying, as an optional component, the rest of the primary common component among all the components that form the wire harnesses of all the product numbers; extracting, as a secondary common component, component groups commonly provided in product numbers among the optional components of which the usage rate is equal to or higher than a predetermined value, and determining a configuration of an additional part; classifying, as an additional component, each component of the rest of secondary common components among the optional components; and forming the whole wire harness of each product number with a combination of the wire harness of the basic part, the wire harness of the additional part, and the additional component

Abstract: A resource reservation for a file transfer at an ingress node, core nodes, and an egress node on a file transfer route in a packet switching network is realized by sequentially carrying out a control processing for determining a reserved rate function rrsv(t) indicating an output bandwidth at each node as a function of time t according to an input rate function rin(t) indicating an input bandwidth at each node as a function of time t and a vacant rate function r&phgr;(t) indicating a vacant bandwidth at each node as a function of time t, and judging whether it is possible to accept the reservation request at each node or not according to whether a difference between the input rate function and the output rate function exceeds a buffer capacity available at each node or not.

Abstract: The high speed batch file transfer method according to the present invention comprises a procedure for transferring file data, using a first storage medium and a second storage medium possessing a faster input/output speed than this first storage medium, to a second storage medium while conducting processing such as compression and the like with regard to this file data within a first storage medium before designating a communication link at the first terminal source; designating a communication link following completion of processing with regard to the file data; and batch transferring the file data within the second storage medium to a network card without processing this data; and a mechanism for batch transferring to a second storage medium the aforementioned file data transmitted without processing to the network card, and then transferring this file data to a first storage medium while conducting processing such as expansion and the like.
