A method for purifying an organic solvent has a first treatment of bringing an organic solvent to be treated into contact with an H-type cation exchanger, and a second treatment of bringing a treated liquid from the first treatment into contact with an anion exchanger and an H-type strongly acidic cation exchanger. According to the present application, the provided method and an apparatus for purifying an organic solvent remove metal impurities of both metal species of monovalent and polyvalent metals in the organic solvent.

There is provided a frequent pattern extraction apparatus. In the apparatus, time series data for an item operation is divided into a plurality of item operation sets. Using a set degree of similarity between the item operation sets, an abstract item operation set is generated. A pattern of sequences that frequently appear is extracted from the sequences in the abstract item operation set. Using the pattern of sequences that frequently appear, an item as well as an item operation are recommended to a user.

A storage device has plural data disks including a primary data area and a backup data area. Performance and reliability are secured while conserving power. A system management means includes a disk rotational state detection means, a disk rotational state control means for rotating or stopping a data disk, and a data placement control means for accessing the data disk to move the data. The data placement control means, if the data disk of the primary or backup side has been stopped at writing time, spins up and accesses thereof, and if the data disk of the primary or backup side has been stopped at reading time, prioritizes the side that is being rotated and accesses thereto, and if the data disk of the primary and backup side have both been stopped at reading time, spins up and accesses the side that has been stopped for the longer time.
