Abstract: An object of the present disclosure is to make it possible to measure an IP flow corresponding to time-varying, high-speed traffic. The present disclosure is a device that monitors traffic in a network, the device comprising a memory that records, for each flow in the network, metadata and flow information to be used in measurement, wherein a traffic state is forecasted using a packet flowing in the network; and a recording area for the metadata and the flow information in the memory is set based on the forecasted traffic state.

Abstract: An image restoration apparatus includes: an image acquisition unit that acquires a mask image generated by masking, by a mask region, a predetermined region of an article image in which an article is imaged; and an image output unit that outputs a restored image corresponding to the mask image acquired by the image acquisition unit by using a restorer pre-trained by machine learning so as to output the restored image, which is restored from the mask image to reproduce the article image in a pseudo manner, according to an input of the mask image.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus receives a user selection of content to be reproduced by an external device connected to the information processing apparatus. A request to reproduce the user selected content is sent to the external device. Information indicating whether the external device has started reproducing the selected content is received from the external device. In response to the external device having started reproduction of the selected content, a thumbnail image is reproduced that corresponds to the content being reproduced by the external device.

Abstract: A transmission device encodes content data, divides the encoded content data into a plurality of pieces of transmission data, and transmits the pieces to, through a plurality of uploaders and a plurality of networks corresponding to the plurality of uploaders, a distribution device configured to perform content distribution.
