An LLZ oxide may be a garnet-type oxide that contains Li, La, Zr and O as main constituent elements, and further contains substituent elements such as Zn in addition to the main constituent elements. The substituent elements may contain Bi, Nb, Hf and the like in addition to Zn. The LLZ-type oxide may be used, for example, as a solid electrolyte for an all-solid-state lithium ion secondary battery. The all-solid-state lithium ion secondary battery includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a solid electrolyte layer that is disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode.

Oxide, solid electrolyte and all-solid-state lithium ion secondary battery

A conference system includes: a computer processing unit (CPU) that: acquires, for each of information processing devices used by participants of a conference, information specific to a first area in which the conference is held; extracts features from the information specific to the first area; compares the features of each of the information processing devices with one another; groups the information processing devices with similar features together; assigns, for each group of the information processing devices, a work space that can be accessed by the information processing devices of each group; and notifies the information processing devices of each group of information related to the work space that allows the information processing devices of each group to access the work space assigned to each group. The information processing devices access the work space using the information related to the work space.

Conference system, conference server, and program based on voice data or illumination light

A first hardware processor included in a server determines one or more candidate apparatuses, which are candidates for being information processing apparatuses that execute a distribution process, based on performance of hardware resources, determines that an apparatus, which responds to an inquiry about whether the distribution process is executable, among the one or more candidate apparatuses is a proxy apparatus, and requests the proxy apparatus to execute the distribution process, and a second hardware processor included in each of a plurality of information processing apparatuses, in response to an inquiry about whether the distribution process is executable from the server, determines whether the distribution process is executable based on a margin of the hardware resources, and in the case where it is determined that the distribution process is executable, responds to the inquiry about whether the distribution process is executable.

Information processing system, server and non-transitory computer-readable recording medium encoded with data distribution program

An image forming apparatus having a function to communicate with a terminal is provided. The image forming apparatus includes a receiver configured to receive, from the terminal, a print command to print a rasterized image having been stored; a user interface configured to receive, from a user, an execution command to print the rasterized image after the receiver receives the print command; and a printer configured to print the rasterized image after the user interface receives the execution command.

Image forming apparatus, printing method, and non-transitory recording medium for storing computer readable program

An image forming apparatus includes: a detection unit that detects a pinch operation that is an operation of increasing or decreasing a distance between two touch positions on a touch panel; an adjustment unit that, upon reception of setting of a size of a non-standard size sheet, adjusts the set size in accordance with the pinch operation; an angle specification unit that specifies, as a pinch operation angle resulting from the pinch operation, an angle formed by a straight line connecting the two touch positions and one of two orthogonal coordinate axes of a coordinate system of the touch pad; and an adjustment amount change unit that changes an adjustment amount for the set size per operation in accordance with whether the pinch operation angle falls within a first angular range or a second angular range that does not overlap the first angular range.

Image forming apparatus and storage medium

An information processing apparatus includes an input portion for a user to enter information, the input portion including a first input portion, and a second input portion with which information being entered is hard to be seen by a person around the user as compared with the first input portion. The information processing apparatus also includes a determination portion configured to determine whether or not entry target information to be entered by the user is sensitive. The information processing apparatus further includes a call portion configured to, prior to entry of the entry target information, call the first input portion when the determination portion determines that the entry target information is not sensitive, and call the second input portion when the determination portion determines that the entry target information is sensitive.

Information processing apparatus, method for calling input portion, and computer-readable storage medium for computer program

An image forming apparatus capable of exchanging various types of information with at least one image forming apparatus includes a nonvolatile storage unit capable of higher-speed access processing than a hard disk drive of the image forming apparatus and capable of storing amount-of-use information regarding an amount of use of the image forming apparatus by each user, and a management unit configured to manage usage of the image forming apparatus by a user, by using the amount-of-use information stored in the storage unit. On a predetermined condition, the management unit shifts specific amount-of-use information to a shift destination device that is another image forming apparatus different from the image forming apparatus, the specific amount-of-use information being amount-of-use information about a specific user out of a plurality of pieces of amount-of-use information about each of a plurality of users stored in the storage unit.

Utilizing different speed memories for managing a plurality of user usage data

Condensed-hexacyclic compounds and a process therefor

Process for the preparation of tetrahydroindolizines

Described is a process for the preparation of Compound (7) in accordance with the following reaction scheme by reacting Compound (5) with ethylene glycol in a solvent in the presence of a Lewis acid, thereby obtaining Compound (6), and then reacting the resulting compound with a carbonate diester in a solvent in the presence of a metal alkoxide (R,, R,each represents a C,alkyl group or the like and R,represents H or C,alkyl group).
