Publication number: 20180082078Abstract: Encryption methods allowing encrypted data to be stored in a database and processed in the encrypted state have been proposed. However, since it is necessary for an application to use plaintext data, usage is only possible where security is assured. When an application for processing encrypted data stored in a database is used from a user system, the application is launched from the user system via an application extension unit. When the application processes the encrypted data stored in the database, the application extension unit performs a process in which, if an encryption SQL function enabling the encrypted data stored in the database to be processed is registered, the SQL function enabling the function for processing plaintext is replaced with the encryption SQL function, and, if a substitution process is registered, the SQL function is replaced with a substitution process function enabling the substitution process to be performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 15, 2016Publication date: March 22, 2018Inventors: Takayuki SUZUKI, Go KOJIMA, Yoshinori SATOU, Keisei FUJIWARA

Patent number: 9882406Abstract: A lithium-ion battery includes a cathode active material of the Olivine-type crystal structure. The lithium-ion battery is charged under control of a charging control apparatus, which performs a charging process for charging up to a target voltage according to a constant-current and constant-voltage charging method, a negative-electrode potential evaluation process for evaluating a potential change quantity at the negative-electrode, and a voltage setting process for setting the target voltage to a lower voltage based on the potential change quantity of the negative-electrode evaluated by the negative-electrode potential evaluation process. The charging voltage is changed from the target voltage to the set voltage even when the negative-electrode potential changes with an increase in the number of charging and aging deterioration. Thus a positive-electrode potential is suppressed from rising because of less susceptibility to the increase in number of charging and aging deterioration.Type: GrantFiled: August 18, 2015Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Yoshinori Satou, Masaki Uchiyama, Nobuo Yamamoto, Koji Ohira
