  • Patent number: 11973688
    Abstract: A control device that controls a communication system in which a network device and a virtual network device on a cloud communicate with each other through a tunnel, the control device including: a calculation unit that calculates a predicted value of the number of future setting entries in the virtual network device; an autoscale execution unit that executes scale-out or scale-in of the virtual network device on the basis of a result of comparison between the predicted value and a threshold; and a control unit that performs routing control between an application and the virtual network device in a service platform on the cloud.

  • Patent number: 11968121
    Abstract: A control apparatus configured to, in a network constituted by the multiple communication apparatuses, control one or more anchor nodes designated in advance among the multiple communication apparatuses, includes: a route creation unit configured to create route information including labels of communication apparatuses or links to be passed through, based on an input required condition; a route compression unit configured to divide the labels included in the route information in units of anchor nodes, and compress at least a portion of the labels included in the route information into a compressed label that can be expanded in at least one anchor node among the communication apparatuses determined based on the route information, so as not to exceed a processing limit of a communication apparatus determined based on the route information; and a distribution unit configured to distribute information for expanding the compressed label to the at least one anchor node.

  • Patent number: 6186756
    Abstract: A rotor 1 forming screw teeth is projectingly provided at its outer end 2 on the axis thereof with a center shaft 3. The center shaft 3 is provided at its outer end 4 with a smaller-diameter shaft 5 or a concaved fitting hole. A separate rotor shaft 6 which is to be fitted over the smaller-diameter shaft 5 or fitted into the concaved fitting hole is provided with another concaved fitting hole 7 or smaller-diameter shaft. A metal shaft around which synthetic resin is molded is formed at its peripheral surface with a spiral groove or corrugated groove in the opposite revolutional direction with respect to the revolutional direction of the screw rotor. The spiral groove is formed with smooth arc curved line connecting profiles of adjacent grooves. The shaft is provided with a step, and synthetic resin is molded around the shaft surface to form a screw rotor.
