A storing unit stores a data set including a plurality of data elements and a first Bloom filter used to determine whether a query-target data element is present in the data set. A calculating unit deletes, when some data elements are deleted, a first bit array from the first Bloom filter. The first bit array has the number of bits corresponding to the number of deleted data elements. When a query-target first data element is entered, the calculating unit adds a second bit array temporarily to a second Bloom filter obtained by deleting the first bit array. The second bit array has the same number of bits as the first bit array, with all bits set to a specific value. Using the second Bloom filter, the calculating unit determines whether the first data element is present in the data set, from which some data elements have been deleted.

A storage system includes a plurality of storage devices, including a first storage device and an information processor apparatus for managing the storage system. The first storage device is configured to select a second storage device coupled over a network with the information processor apparatus from among the plurality of storage devices, and assign a representative address such as an Internet Protocol (IP) address to be used for communication with the information processor apparatus to the selected second storage device. The second storage device is configured to receive a request addressed to the representative address from the information processor apparatus, and transfer the request to a third storage device among the plurality of storage devices to process the request. An assigned representative address may be canceled when a storage device fails and an internal IP address may be assigned. Storage devices may be selected based on load and the need for cable or hardwired connections may be reduced.

A storage system includes a plurality of storing devices configured to store data, a cache memory configured to hold data, an access control unit configured to make an access to any one of the plurality of storing devices when an access request for reading of target data or writing of the target data is made from an information processing terminal, and to store the target data in the cache memory, and a writing unit configured to write the target data stored in the cache memory in the storing device which has not stored the target data among the plurality of storing devices.

A storage control apparatus controls storage units in a storage apparatus and includes a memory unit that stores group information identifying a copy-source volume group belonging to a consistency group; and a control unit that creates based on the group information, snapshots of respective volumes of the volume group for a given time point; creates respective difference storage areas to store, as difference data, update data for the respective volumes after the given time point; and transfers to a copy-destination storage apparatus, data of the snapshots of the respective volumes. The control unit further creates snapshots of the respective volumes at an arbitrary time point after the given time point; creates respective difference storage areas to store, as difference data, update data for the respective volumes after the arbitrary time point; and transfers to the copy-destination storage apparatus, the difference data of the respective volumes for the arbitrary time point.

A parking assist system includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to detect an obstacle. The electronic control unit is configured to determine a target position of a moving path of a vehicle. The electronic control unit is configured to determine the target position at a position at which the vehicle is spaced at least a predetermined distance from the obstacle higher than a first threshold and the vehicle overlaps with the obstacle lower than the first threshold.

Parking assist system and parking assist method

A parking assist system includes an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit is configured to detect an available parking area in an area around a vehicle, calculate a parking guidance path for guiding the vehicle from a current position of the vehicle to a parking target position included in the available parking area, execute guidance control for guiding the vehicle to the parking target position by executing at least steering control along the parking guidance path, and, when an end condition for ending guidance is satisfied in the middle of execution of the guidance control, end the guidance control and carry out at least one of steering to keep a steering angle at an end of the steering control for a predetermined period or steering to gradually reduce the steering angle from the steering angle at the end of the steering control toward a neutral position.
