A pseudo node receiving a management message with the same protocol as a general node is added, in interdomain management information from an own domain, the other domain part in management information is received as the management information by the pseudo node (the other domain part is concealed) and when interdomain management information is transmitted to the other domain through the pseudo node by a federation protocol and the pseudo node and the interdomain management information is received from the other domain, the other domain part in the management information is bound as the management information of the pseudo node (the other domain part is concealed) and transmitted to a management server of an own domain.11-21-2013
20140068045NETWORK SYSTEM AND VIRTUAL NODE MIGRATION METHOD - A disclosed example is a network system including physical nodes. The network system provides a virtual network system including virtual nodes allocated computer resources of the physical nodes. In a case where the network system performs migration of a first virtual node for executing service using computer resources of a first physical node to a second physical node, the network system creates the communication paths for connecting the second physical node and the neighboring physical nodes on the physical links, starts the service executed by the first virtual node using the computer resources secured by the second physical node, switches communication paths to the created communication paths for switching the virtual links.03-06-2014
20140298303METHOD OF PROCESSING PROGRAM AND PROGRAM - A method of processing a program for achieving programming with a low dependency on a hardware is provided. A plurality of types of data representations are provided to a packet in accordance with a type of a memory storing the packet. When an operation is performed for the packet, the data representation provided to the packet is identified, and the processing is performed in accordance with the identified data representation. In this manner, the program with the low dependency on the hardware such as a memory can be developed. Also, in a method (compiler) of processing the program used for the development of the program, a precondition is recognized when the processing for the packet is performed, so that a speed of the created object program is increased.10-02-2014

201503527923D modeling and printing methods based on specification of height and width of each part - The purpose of this invention is to enable forming 3D objects by a 3D printer with preserving 3D-printability by drawing free curves and lines by the nozzle, by keeping printed filament at the designed location, and by printing automatically without disturbed by obstacles.12-10-2015
201503527973D printed objects and printing methods that controls light reflection direction and strength - The purpose of this invention is to enable forming 3D objects by a 3D printer with controlling the strength and the direction of the light reflection and to enable forming 3D-printed objects with brilliant reflections of various directions.12-10-2015
201503675713D printing method that enables arraying horizontal filaments without support - The problem to be solved is, when printing a 3D object by using a 3D printer of fused-deposition-modeling type or another type, to enable printing it even when the filament is not supported from underneath by avoiding filament drop by generating force to push the extruded filament to the neighbor filament, and to enable arraying the filaments to a horizontal direction.12-24-2015
