20100067915 | PHOTOELECTRIC COMPOSITE WIRING COMPONENT AND ELECTRONIC APPARATUS EMPLOYING IT - To provide a photoelectric composite wiring component combining both characteristics of low power consumption of transmission over electrical wiring and large transmission capacity of optical transmission over optical wiring, and exhibiting a high power efficiency for the transmission capacity. A mechanism for switching between transmission of a transmission signal over an electrical transmission path and that over an optical transmission path depending on the modulation rate or the transmission rate of the transmission signal is provided. When the modulation rate or the transmission rate of the transmission signal is low, power supply to an optical transmitting/receiving section is stopped and the signal is transmitted over the electrical transmission path, thus achieving low power consumption. When the modulation rate or the transmission rate of the transmission signal is high, the signal is transmitted over the optical transmission path, thus achieving a large transmission capacity. | 03-18-2010 |

Historical traffic information is used to perform component analysis for a group of links that are targets of unexpected incident detection, and recovered traffic information for the historical traffic information is determined from computed top bases of the traffic information about the group of links. Difference statistical traffic information is generated from the difference between the historical traffic information and its recovered traffic information. For real-time traffic information, recovered traffic information for the real-time traffic information is determined from the top bases. The difference between the real-time traffic information and the recovered traffic information is compared with the difference statistical traffic information, and if the difference of the real-time traffic information is larger, the occurrence of an unexpected incident is determined. | 03-26-2009 |
