Provided is an information processing apparatus for displaying a state of a machine facility including a plurality of devices, on a display unit. An operation time for an operation of one predetermined device among the plurality of devices and signals relating to the operation are displayed on the display unit.

Information processing apparatus, method of controlling information processing apparatus, production system, method of manufacturing article, and recording medium

An information processing system includes a first controller that controls access to resources on a network based on authority to use the resources, a first manager that registers and manages users who access the resources via the first controller, a second controller that controls, independently of the first controller, access to the resources on the network based on authority to use the resources, a second manager that registers and manages users who access the resources via the second controller, and an identifier that identifies, in response to second authority to use a resource in the second manager being set for a user, first authority of the user to use the resource in the first manager.

Information processing system, information processing apparatus for controlling access to resources and functions for managing users allowed to access the resources

An information processing system includes one or more virtual machines, a container scaling apparatus, a virtual-machine scaling apparatus, a calculating unit, and a reflecting unit. The container scaling apparatus performs autoscaling of a container that runs on the one or more virtual machines. The virtual-machine scaling apparatus performs autoscaling of the virtual machines in accordance with a difference in a necessary number of virtual machines and a number of virtual machines that are currently running. The calculating unit calculates, from a necessary number of containers calculated by the container scaling apparatus, a number of virtual machines that is necessary to cause the necessary number of containers to run thereon. The reflecting unit reflects the number calculated by the calculating unit to the necessary number of virtual machines to be used by the virtual-machine scaling apparatus.

Information processing system, autoscaling association apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium for determining a necessary number of virtual machines

A first updating unit updates the state of access control of the data to be edited set up in the memory to an exclusive state in response to an exclusion request to the data to be edited. A second updating unit updates the state of access control of the data to be edited set up in the memory to an exclusion removal standby state in response to an exclusion removal request to the data to be edited in which the state of access control is in the exclusive state. A third updating unit updates the state of access control to all data to be edited from the exclusion removal standby state to an exclusion removal state when the data to be edited in which the state of access control is updated.

System and method for controlling access to a document being edited

Providing an objective lens capable of achieving reliable centering during formation, allowing high-precision formation, and improving durability of a manufacturing apparatus, and providing an optical pickup apparatus and an optical disk apparatus using that objective lens. According to the present invention, an objective lens is formed so as to satisfy condition 0.3&#x2266;Z/D&#x2266;0.5, where Z is a sag amount equivalent to a length of a convexly curved optical surface along an optical axis, and D is an optically effective diameter equivalent to a length which is optically effective for the optical surface and is orthogonal to the optical axis. It is possible to reliably perform centering during fabrication of the objective lens and allow high-precision formation for decreasing the lens aberration.

Optical lens, optical pickup apparatus, and optical disk apparatus using the same

Disclosed are a lens efficiently manufactured into an accurate shape at a low cost, a manufacturing method thereof, and an optical pickup using the lens. The lens includes a geometrical optics portion for converging light having been incident thereon from its light incoming plane, and two diffraction optics portions provided on the light incoming plane and a light outgoing plane of the geometrical optics portion, wherein the diffraction optics portions are made from a material different from that of the geometrical optics portion.

Lens, manufacturing method thereof, and optical pickup

Lens manufacturing method thereof, and optical pickup

A printing apparatus system includes a plurality of type units each having a plurality of type elements and each being different from the others. Each type unit may be mounted in the apparatus. A detector detects which of the type units is so mounted and produces a detection signal representative thereof. The printing pressure with which each type element is imprinted on a print medium is determined in accordance with the particular type wheel mounted in the apparatus as indicated by the detection signal. Additionally, the amount of advance of an ink ribbon for imprinting a type element on a type unit is determined in accordance with the particular type unit mounted in the apparatus, again as indicated by the detection signal.

Serial printing apparatus with sentence memory and display

There is provided a printer comprises a first type group having a first font; a second type group having a second font; a first read only memory in which a space traveling amount corresponding to each type of the first type group has been stored; a second read only memory in which a space traveling amount corresponding to each type of the second type group has been stored; and a microprocessor which selects the 1st read only memory when the 1st type group is used, thereby allowing the propotional spacing operation corresponding to each type of the 1st type group to be performed, and which selects the 2nd read only memory when the 2nd type group is used, thereby allowing the proportional spacing operation corresponding to each type of the 2nd type group to be performed. Since the invention can be constituted by a simple hardware, by merely adding this hardware to a conventional printer such as an electronic typewriter, the fine proportional spacing can be executed for each type of various kinds of fonts.

Printer in which the amount of carriage travel can be changed for

A document processing apparatus has a floppy disc for storing document information in one format, a key stroke train converter for reading the information from the floppy disc and converting it into information in another format, a processor for processing the information, and another floppy disc for storing the processed information.

Document processing apparatus for processing information having

A text processing apparatus allowing a line-end process to be performed easily, namely the division of a line-end word and hyphening. If a word at the end of a line exceeds the area of display or printing, the word is automatically transferred to a next line, but a part of the word that can be returned to the end of the original line is identified, and the operator can insert a hyphen after that part. Upon insertion of the hyphen, the above-mentioned part is returned to the end of the original line, and the remaining part of the word is displayed on the next line. In this manner the hyphenating of line-end word is made easy to perform on the display, and printing can be obtained in the form as displayed.

Text processing apparatus

There is disclosed a printer with a reciprocating printing head for printing in both directions, capable of achieving satisfactory print precision without complicated positioning device. In case of printing certain particular information, if the printing head is moved to the corresponding print position in a particular direction, the printing head is moved further in the particular direction and is then returned to the corresponding print position.

Printer carriage movement for particular characters

Serial printing apparatus with sentence memory and display having

Document processing apparatus and method for printing a document read

An output apparatus provided with an input unit for entering character information, a printing unit for printing the character information entered by the input unit, a memory unit for storing the character information entered by the input unit, and a selection unit for selecting a part of the character information printed by the printing unit, wherein the part, selected by the selection unit, of the character information can be re-printed by the printing unit.
