Training data including a first and second group of questions each associated with an answer is read into memory by a computer. A class of answers including the answer to a question for each question is determined, where each class of answers has a class label that is associated with each of the questions, and each of the questions are classified into a respective class of answers, accordingly. First and second training data is generated including the first and second groups of questions and corresponding classes of answers for use in first and second classifiers, respectively. Each question of the first and second group of questions is classified by the second and first classifiers, respectively, where the classifying generates corresponding classification results. The first or second training data is updated based on the classification results to generate corresponding updated first or second training data, respectively.

A packet distribution system includes: a first transfer device that is placed on a boundary of a core network and near first and second terminal devices; a second transfer device that is placed on the boundary of the core network and near a content distribution device; and a control device that, when a first content packet is distributed to the first terminal device, a distribution request packet is transmitted from the second terminal device, and a second content packet newly distributed from a content distribution device to the second terminal device is detected by the second transfer device, causes the second transfer device to abandon the second content packet based on control information included in the second content packet, and causes the first transfer device to copy the first content packet distributed to the first terminal device, to the second terminal device.

Packet distribution system, control device and control method for controlling distribution of content packet

A monitoring apparatus includes a storage and a processor. The storage stores collecting apparatus information for identifying one of a plurality of collecting apparatuses collecting status information of a network. The processor acquires status information of the network from a network apparatus connected to the network. The processor acquires, from a database, collecting apparatus information for identifying each of the plurality of collecting apparatuses. The processor acquires, based on the acquired collecting apparatus information, load information indicating a load on each of the plurality of collecting apparatuses. The processor selects, based on the acquired load information, one collecting apparatus among the plurality of collecting apparatuses, to which the monitoring apparatus transmits the acquired status information. The processor stores collecting apparatus information for identifying the selected collecting apparatus in the storage. The processor notifies the selected collecting apparatus of monitoring apparatus information for identifying the monitoring apparatus.

Monitoring apparatus, monitoring system, and information setting method

A processing apparatus includes: an address converter configured to return an address in response to a search request from a server; and a substitute controller configured to control the address converter to return a first address in response to a first search request from a first server when the address converter has not received a second search request for a second address from a second server, and return the second address in response to the first search request from the first server when the address converter has received a second search request for the second address from the second server.

Processing apparatus, processing method, and communication system

An editing apparatus efficiently performs cooperative editing of a document. Multiple users can edit a document in parallel using the editing apparatus which includes a screen output section, an editing screen, a section for receiving, a selection input section for inputting, and an update section for reflecting the edited content selected by a selection instruction, and updating the document.

Joint editing of an on-line document

A processing apparatus, including: a query statistics unit which inputs a query request for querying a destination for first telephone number, and counts the number of input query requests; and a restriction control unit which transmits to a restriction control apparatus which performs outgoing call restriction, a restriction request to restrict a telephone call by second telephone number, when the counted number of the query requests is equal to or greater than a restriction start threshold, wherein the telephone call by the second telephone number is restricted by transmission of the restriction request, and a telephone call by the first telephone number is performed.

Communication system, processing apparatus, and communication method in communication system

The present invention provides a collaboration system that reduces communication traffic, is platform- and OS-independent, and has high versatility. There are provided a collaboration server connected with a plurality of terminal apparatuses through a network for obtaining, retaining, and distributing a Web page as a work screen used in collaborative work among the terminal apparatuses, and a chat server for managing chat sessions. The collaboration server participates as a chat client in a chat session managed by the chat server and distributes an operation instruction concerning the work screen as a chat message to each terminal apparatus. The work screen is reloaded into each terminal apparatus according to the operation instruction to allow the collaborative work to progress.

Collaboration server, collaboration system, and method and program for collaboration server and system, for reducing network traffic

A distributed processing system wherein client-side process is simplified and system reliability is improved. An information transmission requesting section makes a request for transmission of information, and an information providing section provides received information to a user. An information management section manages the information, and an information relaying/transmitting section relays the information to be transmitted to a client application. An account authentication section verifies authenticity of account of the client application, and an information storage section stores the information. After the authenticity is verified, a service application control section controls the start and termination at logon and logoff, respectively, of a service application corresponding to the client application.

Distributed processing system and network monitoring system

In a message control apparatus for transferring messages between objects which belong to different processes, a message distributor distributes messages to queue buffers provided for each of target objects, and a thread controller simultaneously prepares a plurality of threads less than a maximum thread allocation number predetermined for each of processes and the target objects and takes out the messages to be given to a corresponding target object. Also, the maximum thread allocation number corresponding to a CPU serviceability ratio in the processes can be designated, and a part of the thread allocation number of the target objects with few thread number used is allotted to the maximum thread allocation number of the target objects with many thread number used.

An object management system and data processing system which enable the containment relationships among a plurality of resource managers to be changed without affecting client applications which use services of those resource managers. A tree manager maintains tree structure data that defines the containment relationships among resource managers, together with identification data that is used to distinguish between them. From this tree structure data, an object manager builds a containment tree to grasp the containment relationships among the resource managers. When a client application issues an operation request to one of the resource managers, a message processor receives and forwards it to the object manager. The object manager then searches the containment tree to find identification data of a relevant resource manager for which the received operation request should be destined, thus sending the request to the found destination resource manager. This centralized approach of object management facilitates addition and removal of resource managers to/from the tree structure data.
