There are provided a device that collects operation data from equipment, and an information processing apparatus that detects an anomaly or an omen of an anomaly of the equipment on the basis of anomaly detection models constructed from the operation data, the information processing apparatus including means for collecting the operation data, means for learning anomaly detection models from the operation data, and means for calculating an anomaly score of respective operation data from the operation data and the anomaly detection models, the means for learning an anomaly detection model in which a dispersion of elements is small among the anomaly detection models. Thus, in an anomaly detection system, when the operation state of equipment is monitored, even if data for performing division of operation states cannot be obtained or even if division cannot be performed correctly, misdetection of an anomaly such as a malfunction or a failure or an omen of an anomaly can be decreased and the state of the system can be evaluated correctly.

Anomaly detection system

Before software for a routing protocol in a second wireless terminal receives a routing packet between a first wireless terminal and the second wireless terminal that are both included in an ad hoc network, stability determining software determines whether or not a link between the first wireless terminal, which is the source of the routing packet, and the second wireless terminal is stable. When the link is determined to be stable, the software for the routing protocol in the second wireless terminal processes the routing packet. This allows building of a route using only a stable link between adjacent nodes.

Method for building ad hoc network

The present invention provides a vehicle communication system by which even when the number of other vehicles around a traffic line is increased, it is possible to prevent occurrence of a situation that there are located vehicles the number of which is larger than the capacity of a communicable network, and it is possible to secure communications with the other vehicles. Even when it is determined that a host vehicle enters in a traffic line and a plurality of other vehicles the number of which is larger than a threshold value are located in front and rear virtual regions of the host vehicle, a transmission power is reduced to the extent that communications between the host vehicle and one of the other vehicles that is located furthest in the virtual regions can be secured.

Vehicle communication system

One objective of the present invention is to determine a location for a relay terminal in a radio network, without preparatory surveying a radio status, and to arrange the relay terminal at the location. Another objective is to provide a method for retrieving the arranged relay terminal. When a relay terminal is to be arranged, the relay terminal transmits a survey packet to examine the quality of communication with a communication terminal or other relay terminal. Where a location is appropriate, the relay terminal gives a notice. The arranged terminal relays communication. Further, when the relay terminal is to be retrieved, the relay terminal carried by a user transmits a retrieval packet to the arranged relay terminal, which notifies the user of its presence by light, sounds, or returning a packet. In this manner, a single relay terminal provides functions of arrangement, relay and retrieval.

Radio network expansion method

In a network system including a first relay connected to a wire network and a radio network, a second relay for relaying data in the radio network, a first terminal connected by wireless to the first relay, and a second terminal connected by wireless to the second relay, the first relay keeps first information indicating a correspondence between an address of the second terminal, an identifier of a group to which the second terminal belongs, and an identifier of the second relay and second information indicating a correspondence between identifiers of groups formed by virtually subdividing the wire network and an identifier of a group to which the second terminal belongs, and the first relay transmits a packet according to the first or second information.
