Abstract: To detect an unauthorized access easily, conveniently, and reliably, an unauthorized access detection system stores data indicating an access destination of an unauthorized access to be detected, detects an access request, determines whether an access source indicated by the access request matches an access source stored in advance and also whether an access destination indicated by the access request matches the data stored, suspends an access to the access destination requested by the access request if it is determined that the access source indicated by the access request matches the access source stored in advance and also that the access destination indicated by the access request matches the data stored, receives an input of biometric information from a user, performs authentication based on the biometric information inputted, and controls the suspended access according to a result of the authentication.

Abstract: A sacrificial memory opening fill structure for a multi-tier memory device may include a semiconductor fill material portion a metallic fill material portion to enhance control of a vertical cross-sectional profile of an inter-tier memory opening. Multiple inter-tier dielectric layers may be employed to reduce sharp corners in a memory opening fill structure. Alternatively or additionally, a combination of an isotropic etch process followed by an anisotropic etch process may be used to form a first-tier memory opening.

Abstract: A server informs a vehicle of chargers, the vehicle being mounted with a battery. The vehicle includes a fatigue detection device configured to detect a fatigue level of the driver. A server includes a communication device configured to receive information indicative of the fatigue level of the driver from the vehicle, and a processor configured to extract at least one charger from among multiple chargers installed within an access range of the vehicle if the driver's fatigue level is above a given reference value, and inform the vehicle of the extracted charger, the access range being determined by power stored in the battery and the current location of the vehicle.

Abstract: A server calculates, for each of a plurality of vehicles, a total number of chargers within an accessible range of a vehicle to calculate a reduced number so that the greater the total number of chargers is, the less the reduced number is, the reduced number representing a likelihood that the vehicle would arrive at each of the chargers. The server calculates, for each of the at least one charger, an effective number of vehicles which may use a charger to conduct external charging, by summing reduced numbers. The server calculates an index indicating a potential demand for external charging at the at least one charger based on the effective number.
