Abstract: In one general embodiment, a method includes receiving, at a data storage device that performs data operations on magnetic media, a command indicating a read range of records to read. A determination is made as to whether one or more of the records within the read range is expected to cause an error. In response to determining that one or more of the records within the read range is known to cause an error, an indication indicative of the record known to cause the error is returned.

Abstract: In a network operating system, a consumed resource manager of a slicing control device manages a resource consumed by a base station. A terminal information manager manages a type of terminal and a service in use. A cell manager manages cell information and creates a neighbor cell list. A movement information acquirer acquires movement information suggesting motion of a terminal. A motion predictor predicts, on the basis of the movement information, a future position or motion of the terminal. A resource controller and sets aside the resource in advance.

Abstract: To provide a novel crosslinking system of fluorine-containing elastomer giving a crosslinked product particularly having improved mechanical strength and compression set at high temperature. A fluorine-containing rubber composition comprising a fluorine-containing elastomer having carboxyl group and/or alkoxycarbonyl group at an end of a trunk chain and/or branched chain as a crosslinkable group.

Abstract: There is provided a material which is free from fading into white due to surface scattering and is useful as a laminated article having excellent adhesion and practical low reflection.

Abstract: The present invention provides novel fluorosulfonic acids and salts thereof having greater stability and higher acidity than conventional fluorosulfonic acids; and synthetic intermediates thereof. The invention also provides processes for producing novel fluorosulfonic acids from which various derivatives can be easily synthesized; and uses of these fluorosulfonic acids. Specifically, the invention provides a compound represented by formula (1): R—S(?O)n—CF2—SO3H??(1) wherein R is a group bound to an adjacent sulfur atom through a carbon atom, examples of R being an optionally substituted alkyl group, an optionally substituted haloalkyl group, an optionally substituted alkenyl group, an optionally substituted haloalkenyl group, an optionally substituted alkynyl group, an optionally substituted haloalkynyl group, an optionally substituted cycloalkyl group, etc.; and n is 1 or 2. The invention also provides salts of such a compound, etc.
