Provided is a technique for reducing the calculation load in navigation management of a moving body within a freely navigable space. The system has a storage unitfor storing movement locus data showing a plurality of movement loci in which a moving body is moved in a two-dimensional or three-dimensional space in which free movement is possible; a network model management unitfor integrating sections approximated by the plurality of movement loci on the basis of the movement locus data, and generating a network model showing a route within the space; a navigation schedule calculation unitfor calculating a navigation schedule when a plurality of moving bodies planning to pass within the space navigate within that space according to the network model route; and a display processing unitfor outputting the calculated navigation schedule to a display apparatus.

Moving body management system and method

A traffic control assisting system ('assisting system') stores action data on an action of a moving object, geographic data in which geographic attribute information, which is information on a reference of movement of the moving object, is imparted to individual segments that are meshes into which a map is divided, and responsiveness data on the moving object's responsiveness to an instruction. The assisting system estimates an ideal action of the moving object based on the responsiveness data; calculates a difference between the estimated action and an action in the action data; updates the responsiveness data based on a result of the calculation; estimates probability of presence of the moving object at certain coordinates at each time point based on the action data, the geographic data, and the responsiveness data and generates a geographic E map; and predicts future coordinates of the moving object based on the geographic E map.

Traffic control assisting system

A programmable controller according to an embodiment includes: a bus for data transmission and reception; a synchronous-control signal line that transmits a synchronous control signal; a synchronous-control-signal generating unit that is connected to the synchronous-control signal line and generates the synchronous control signal on a basis of an external signal; a data holding unit that is connected to the bus and the synchronous-control signal line and latches a signal from an external device in an internal memory in synchronization with the synchronous control signal; and a CPU unit that is connected to the bus and the synchronous-control signal line and reads a value in the internal memory via the bus in synchronization with the synchronous control signal.

Programmable controller

A network address management unit () allocates, to the first edge node, a first network address () on which a physical configuration of a first edge node () is reflected. The network address management unit, when a second edge node () is coupled to the first edge node, allocates, to the first edge node, a second network address () on which the physical configuration of the first edge node is reflected with respect to the second edge node. When the first edge node receives a packet that designates the first or second network address as a destination network address, the first edge node, based on the destination network address designated by the received packet, determines whether the received packet is transferred to the second edge node and discriminates a transfer destination path in the first edge node.

Computer system, address management apparatus, and edge node

Operation management of equipment is made efficient by verifying a plurality of operation management manipulations on a plurality of equipment and optimizing a manipulation order before executing the manipulations. A status of equipment in a status table; a content of a manipulation in a manipulation table; a process time of the manipulation in a manipulation time prediction table; and a status required for the manipulation in the manipulation table are memorized on an operation model managing server. When a plurality of manipulations are input for a plurality of equipment by an operation manager via an operation managing server, correctness of the manipulations is verified and a manipulation order is decided on an operation verifying server based on the various types of memorized information. Also, a manipulation end time of each manipulation is notified to the operation manager via the operation managing server.
