Abstract: In the present specification, degradation of a battery is suppressed in a hybrid vehicle having an EV mode in which the hybrid vehicle runs without using an engine and an HV mode in which the hybrid vehicle runs using both the engine and a motor. A controller of the hybrid vehicle is configured to limit a usage range of the battery in the EV mode with an execution request of the EV mode having been made by an information input from outside to the vehicle than in the EV mode with no execution request. The degradation of the battery is suppressed by limiting the usage range of the battery.

Abstract: A hybrid vehicle for reducing a variation in accelerator position when an EV mode is switched to a HV mode is provided. A controller executes the following process during running in the EV mode. The controller sets an increase of the accelerator position from a first accelerator position to a switching accelerator position at which a switch to the HV mode is to be made as a first increase when an output of a motor has reached an output upper limit at the first accelerator position. The controller sets an increase of the accelerator position from a second accelerator position to the switching accelerator position as a second increase which is smaller than the first increase when the output of the motor has reached the output upper limit at the second accelerator position which is larger than the first accelerator position.

Abstract: A radio wave intensity measuring device includes a radio wave absorber (100) configured to include a plane having a plurality of cells (CL11, CL12, . . . ) and to absorb a radio wave entering the plane, and a measurer (200) configured to measure radio wave intensities in a plurality of cells.

Abstract: An LNG vaporization equipment is provided with: a nitrogen supply apparatus (2); a heating apparatus (4) that heats nitrogen supplied from the nitrogen supply apparatus; vaporizers (6A, 6B, 6C) that vaporize LNG by means of a heat exchange between the nitrogen heated by the heating apparatus and the LNG that is fed out from an LNG tank (1); and a recirculation line (7) which, after the nitrogen after the heat exchange that has been discharged from the vaporizers has been used to reduce the amount of BOG that is generated or has been used for reliquefaction, recirculates it to the heating apparatus. By employing this structure, it is possible to provide the LNG vaporization equipment that is able to use the cooling energy of LNG to reduce the quantity of BOG that is generated, or for reliquefaction.

Abstract: A data protection program is able to effectively restrict an unauthorized access to a resource to be protected even when the resource to be protected is in a state legitimately accessed by a user. The identification information about a program capable of accessing the resource to be protected is registered in an access permission management table. If an access request to access the resource to be protected is subsequently received, then identification information about a request source program which has outputted the access request is acquired. Then, it is determined whether access to the resource to be protected is permitted or not based on whether the identification information about the request source program has been registered in the access permission management table or not. If access to the resource to be protected is permitted, data in the resource to be protected is processed in response to the access request.

Abstract: A cryptographic communication method is provided in which a cryptographic communication is performed by an easy operation even if both enciphered data and unenciphered data are mixed to be handled. In the transmission side, a communication key is used for enciphering data to be transmitted, and in the reception side the same communication key as in the transmission side is used for decoding received data. In the transmission side, an individual key that is different from the communication key is used for enciphering the data to be transmitted, the enciphered data are decoded by using the individual key first, and then the decoded data are enciphered by using the communication key so that the enciphered file can be transmitted.

Abstract: Based on user permission information read from a write-protected portable medium, it is determined whether an application is permitted to use a resource. If the application is permitted to use the resource, the write protection of the portable medium is released, usage log information is written into the medium.
