Installing a management agent with a virtual machine

A management service can install one or more third-party agents and any number of customizations for an operating system / virtual machine at the same as the system / machine is installed. In one implementation, a management service places (e.g., from a remote location) an operating system / virtual machine image in a mounting location. Before installing the corresponding system (OS or virtual machine), the management service also inserts one or more third-party agents into the image, as well as any number or type of policies and customizations. The management service then directs installation of the combined image (including rules, policies, and customizations) so that the operating system, third-party agents, and provided customizations, are all installed together during the same installation process. Accordingly, the management service allows for agents to reliably and immediately begin executing with installation of the operating system / virtual machine.

Content distribution system, content distribution method, information processing apparatus, and program providing medium

A content distribution is performed by a secure container including a content encrypted by a content key and container information set for a content transaction. The container information includes a person identification certificate identifiers list. Usage control status information including the list is generated and stored in a device during a secondary distribution among user devices after a primary distribution of the content. In the distribution among the user devices, identifying an identification certificate in reference to the list and performing a person authentication based on the identification certificate allows each of the user devices to use the transmitted content, when the authentication is affirmative.

Person authentication system, person authentication method and program providing medium

An entity which executes person authentication such as a service provider (SP) and a user device (UC) receives a request for person authentication from an entity which requests person authentication. The entity which requests person authentication can vary in form. The entity which executes person authentication decrypts the template by using a person identification certificate that can be owned by the entity which executes person authentication or provided from the outside, compares the template with sampling information input by a user and notifies the entity which requests person authentication of the result of comparison. The data for person identification is provided as encrypted information that can be decrypted only by the entity which executes person authentication, thereby performing safe authentication in various locations or devices, while preventing the template information from leaking out.

Control device for spark-ignition engine

A control device switches an engine between normal operation mode and special operation mode. In the normal operation mode, an independent cylinder configuration is formed to produce combustion independently in individual cylinders. In the special operation mode, a two-cylinder interconnect configuration is formed so that burned gas discharged from preceding cylinders currently in an exhaust stroke is introduced into following cylinders currently in an intake stroke through intercylinder gas channels, a lean mixture having a high air-fuel ratio is combusted in the preceding cylinders, and a mixture produced by supplying fuel to the burned gas is combusted in the following cylinders. When the engine is switched between the special operation mode and the normal operation mode, the control device selects transitional operation mode, in which the two-cylinder interconnect configuration is formed, and interrupts combustion in the preceding cylinders while producing combustion in the following cylinders by compression ignition.

Person authentication system, person authentication method, and program providing medium

A person authentication system includes a person identification authority. In the system, a service provider, a user device, or the like performs person authentication by acquiring a template from a person identification certificate created by the person identification authority, which is a third-party agency. The person identification authority identifies a person who requests issue of the person identification certificate, creates and registers the person identification certificate. Furthermore, the person identification authority deletes and changes the person identification certificate and performs registration, addition, deletion, invalidation process, and re-validation process of the template stored in the person identification certificate.

Device and method for acoustic diagnosis and measurement by pulse electromagnetic force

The invention provides an acoustic diagnosis / measurement apparatus / method using a pulse of electromagnetic force, capable of non-destructively and precisely diagnosing or measuring corrosion, adhesion, the cover depth, and / or the diameter of a reinforcing iron rod in a structure made of reinforced concrete. A coil 12 is attached to a surface of a structure 11 including a conductor 11a and a non-conductive material 11b covering the conductor 11a. A current pulse is applied to the coil 12 thereby generating a magnetic field pulse. The magnetic field pulse causes an eddy current to be induced in the conductor 11a. The conductor 11a is oscillated by interaction between the eddy current and the magnetic field pulse. As a result, an acoustic signal is generated by the conductor 11a and the acoustic signal is converted into an eclectic signal by an acoustic transducer 14 disposed to the surface of the structure 11. The resultant electric signal is measured by a measurement unit 15 to diagnose / measure the location of the conductor 11a or the state of the structure 11.

Rock Core Removal Method and Apparatus

A rock core removal method and apparatus allows efficient, safe, and reliable removal of a rock core sample. An inner collet tube and an outer ground tube, within a drill tube, protect the core sample during drilling. At depth, the collet tube is raised with respect to the ground tube so that the conical wall of the ground tube pushes constricting fingers on the collet tube inward, gripping the core sample within. The collet tube and ground tube are then raised, rotated, or raised and rotated, applying the necessary force to break the core sample off of the substrate. After retracting the tubes, the collet tube is lowered with respect to the ground tube to release the core sample. An ejection rod then pushes the core sample out of the collet tube. The ground tube may also act as the actuating means for a quick-change drill-bit release feature.
