  • Publication number: 20220413480
    Abstract: A time series data processing system according to the present invention includes a learning unit configured to learn so as to generate a model that takes, of time series data measured from a measurement target, boundary period time series data that is time series data of a boundary period between a normal period and an anomalous period as an input and outputs a teaching signal determined by a preset function in accordance with change of time of the boundary period time series data. The normal period is a period in which the measurement target is determined to be in a normal state. The anomalous period is a period in which the measurement target is determined to be in an anomalous state.

  • Publication number: 20160241469
    Abstract: [Problem] To provide a multi-layer network control method and device whereby it is possible to add a lower layer path in accordance with a path which is requested in an upper layer. [Solution] With respect to controlling a multi-layer network formed from networks of a plurality of layers, virtual links (L901-L903) are generated in an upper layer network on the basis of topology information of a lower-order network. If at least one virtual link is included in a given path (F701) in the upper layer network, lower layer paths (L601, L602) corresponding to the virtual link are set in the lower layer network.

  • Publication number: 20100208722
    Abstract: A route decision system is arranged in each domain of a multi-domain network. The route decision system comprises a topology information collecting unit which collects topology information, a route calculation request responding unit which receives a route calculation request requesting route calculation of a redundant path from a start node to an end node, and a route calculating unit which performs route calculation in response to the route calculation request using the topology information in consideration of a restriction. After a domain from a starting point domain where the start node is present to an end point domain where the end node is present is set, route calculation of the redundant path is sequentially performed at each domain from the end point domain toward the starting point domain through an intermediate domain.
