Abstract: An alpha channel is added in addition to multiple channels forming an image of an item. A second pixel value differing from a first pixel value, which is assigned to a defect-free region, is assigned to a region corresponding to a defect region in the alpha channel. The image including the alpha channel is divided into multiple image segments. A defect label is assigned to the image segment in which the second pixel value is included in the alpha channel, and a non-defect label is assigned to the image segment, in which the second pixel value is not included in the alpha channel. The alpha channel is removed from the image segments to generate labeled image segment data.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program that causes a processor included in a computer to execute a process, the process includes transmitting a first profile indicating a feature of a first user to a device, acquiring a second profile indicating a feature of a second user from the device, establishing communication with the device, in accordance with association between the first profile and the acquired second profile, and notifying the device having the communication established of event information corresponding to a context indicating a state of the first user.

Abstract: A packet transmission method includes receiving a packet having a first service class; determining a maximum transfer band of the first service class, based on maximum transfer band information for each of a plurality of service classes of each of a plurality of computers; determining a transfer band of the first service class, based on traffic amount information for each of the plurality of service classes; transferring the received packet in the first service class, when the transfer band is smaller than the maximum transfer band of the first service class; determining whether a second service class includes a free band, based on the maximum transfer band information, when the transfer band of the first service class is not smaller than the maximum transfer band; and transferring the received packet in the second service class, when it is determined that the second service class includes the free band.

Abstract: A packet transmission device includes a receiver which receives an encapsulated packet obtained by adding a header to a packet which includes a user signal; a memory which stores an address of a transmission source of the user signal stored in the encapsulated packet with respect to an identifier that identifies a type of the user signal included in the header; a processor which controls a band, through which the encapsulated packet passes, based on a value obtained by multiplying a number of addresses of the transmission source stored in the memory with respect to the identifier by a guarantee band allocated for the identifier; and a transmitter which transmits the encapsulated packet to a first network based on the control by the processor.

Abstract: The present invention is comprised for pre-setting bandwidth control information of each user for each of the number of normal physical links which are integrated as a Link Aggregation, recognizing the number of currently normal physical links if a failure, or recovery therefrom, of a physical link which is integrated as the aforementioned Link Aggregation, and carrying out a bandwidth control, for each user traffic, corresponding to the number of the recognized normal physical links by referring to bandwidth control information of each user for each of the number of preset normal physical links, in order to prevent an occurrence of unfairness in usable bandwidth among the users even in the case of a failure occurrence in respective physical links which are logically integrated as a Link Aggregation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a swing-type mechanical pencil wherein lead can be extended from a head member connected to an outer sleeve by swinging the outer sleeve to move a knocking hammer. The knocking hammer applies a lead-feeding action to feed the lead. A chuck shutting hammer is mounted between a spring bearing of a chuck ring sleeve retaining a chuck ring which is a component of the lead holder and a second spring connected with the chuck. An upward movement of the chuck shutting hammer forces the chuck into a chuck ring. This provides a positive action to shut the chuck preventing slipping of the lead when writing with the mechanical pencil. Manual advance of lead is provided by a slider in a recession an outer surface of the sleeve that engages the lead holder allowing the chuck to be manually opened to extend lead.

Manual advance of lead is provided by a slider in a recession an outer surface of the sleeve that engages the lead holder allowing the chuck to be manually opened to extend lead. The recess in the outer sleeve has a restriction that is engaged by a projection in the slider to lock the slider and lead holder against movement and prevent advancing of lead.
