Publication number: 20240067118Abstract: An occupant protection device of a configuration that protects an occupant seated on a seat, in which an airbag is held in a holding body disposed in a periphery of a hip portion of the occupant. The airbag has a bag main body, and a conduit portion that causes an inflating gas discharged from an inflator to flow into the bag main body. The bag main body is held in the holding body in a state of a completely folded body folded using a front-rear reduction folding such that a width dimension in front-rear direction is reduced from a state of a preliminary folded bag. The completely folded body is formed by a lower side rolled region which is formed by a lower side region of the preliminary folded bag being wound from a lower edge side, being stacked on an upper side rolled region which is formed by an upper side region of the preliminary folded bag.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 27, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Inventors: Yuji MATSUZAKI, Akira YASUDA, Yuto NODA, Motoyuki TANAKA

Patent number: 9501413Abstract: A cache controller controls data input/output of the storage device and causes the semiconductor storage device to function as a cache memory of the storage device. A staging controller performs, when data is staged from the storage device to the cache memory, first staging amount control until a staging amount to the cache memory exceeds a first threshold after the storage apparatus starts up; performs second staging amount control until a variation per unit time of a read amount from the cache memory falls within a predetermined range after the first period; and performs third staging amount control after the second period. With this configuration, the semiconductor apparatus can be efficiently used.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2014Date of Patent: November 22, 2016Assignee: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventor: Yuji Noda

Publication number: 20150100865Abstract: Plural control-units each perform a verification process for verifying validity of data. A first storage stores, for each control-unit, an index value indicating a load on the each control-unit activating the verification process, in association with each combination of a rate of a data-amount processed in the verification process executed by the each control-unit and a utilization rate of the each control-unit. A second storage stores, in association with each control-unit, information on a data-amount currently being processed in the verification process activated by the each control-unit and the utilization rate of the each control-unit. A first control-unit determines an index value, for each control-unit, by referring to information in the first storage based on information on a data-amount to be processed in a target verification process and information in the second storage, and determines a second control-unit to activate the target verification process, based on the determined index values.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 8, 2014Publication date: April 9, 2015Applicant: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventor: Yuji Noda

Patent number: 8880803Abstract: A generation-code storage unit stores therein a generation code in association with identification information for identifying the block datum. A generation-code managing unit assigns a new generation code to a detected consecutive data set and any block datum included in writing data other than the consecutive data set and stores the assigned generation code in the generation-code storage unit. A data writing unit adds the new generation code to the block datum or consecutive data set included in the writing data and writes it to a storage unit. A determining unit determines whether the generation code added to a read block datum or consecutive data set is accordant with the generation code of the read block datum or consecutive data set stored in the generation-code storage unit. A data transmitting unit transmits, when the generation codes are accordant, the read block datum or consecutive data set.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2011Date of Patent: November 4, 2014Assignee: Fujitsu LimitedInventor: Yuji Noda
