The information processing apparatus executes a predetermined workflow including a component whose usage history is to be counted, transmits to a user terminal through a communication network, count target contract input screen information for displaying a count target contract input screen on a display of the user terminal, the count target contract input screen associating a predetermined count target contract with the predetermined workflow, in response to an operation on the count target contract input screen displayed on the display of the user terminal based on the count target contract input screen information, associates the predetermined workflow with predetermined count target contract information indicating the predetermined count target contract, and in response to an execution of the predetermined workflow, counts the usage history of the component included in the predetermined workflow in association with the predetermined count target contract.

A logistics operation optimization apparatus computes, for each operation process, a deviation degree between turns of articles of overall optimum proposals indicated by an overall optimum proposal list and turns of the articles in each operation process, estimation operation time, and an error of the estimation operation time from the overall optimum proposal, and the number of combinations of turns that are defaulted from an overall optimum plan indicated by an overall optimum plan list in the past, evaluates the overall optimum proposal according to an evaluation expression of a weighted linear sum including the deviation degree, the estimation operation time, and the error of the estimation operation time from the overall optimum proposal, and the number of combinations of the turns that are defaulted, and creates an overall optimum plan list of the best overall optimum plan, from the overall optimum proposals indicated by the overall optimum proposal list.

The present invention provides a glove/logging system capable of accurately determining periods for glove airtightness inspection and replacement and improving the safety of a work glove in use and the work efficiency by recording and storing the status of use such as the operator name, the frequency of use, the period of use, and the details of work for an individual pair of work gloves attached to an equipment such as an isolator, and retroactively checking improper work and equipment abnormalities by tracing glove operations upon occurrence of operational abnormalities.

The glove/logging system is configured to record and store information on the status of use for a work glove, and include an operator tag, a glove tag, a reader for reading information from the tags, and an information device for recording and storing information. The reader is configured to receive information from the operator tag that passes through the reception region or stops therein or the glove tag via the antenna to communicate the information with the information device.

Meta data is provided flexibly according to an application A related data extraction apparatus for extracting related data which is given to data collected from a target system and is related to the data includes: a configuration data accumulation unit that manages configuration information of the target system; a configuration data input unit that accepts input of registration or update of the configuration information; an application linkage unit that accepts a request for the related data given to the data by an application for analyzing the data; and a related data extraction unit that extracts the related data from the configuration information on the basis of the request.

A method for forming aggregates of food pieces by arranging a plurality of food pieces such that the food pieces at least partially overlap one another is provided. The method automatically changes the number of food pieces forming each aggregate and a pitch at which the food pieces are arranged so as to limit the weights of the aggregates within a predetermined permissible range and to form each aggregate such that the total length of the aggregate is a preset length. The method also automatically changes the number of food pieces forming each aggregate and the pitch at which the food pieces are arranged according to the length of the food piece in the arrangement direction.

An engineering assistant system 1 includes: an engineering server 10 that issues a work list including information related to work necessary for performing the engineering of a process control system 100; and an at least one engineering client 20 that grants work authority for each worker based on the work list issued by the engineering server 10 and makes it possible to perform work on a constituent apparatus that constitutes the process control system 100 within a range of granted work authority.

This disclosure describes manufacturing of a device configured to guide bone and tissue regeneration for a bone defect. A method may include receiving a three-dimensional digital model or scan representing an anatomical feature to be repaired, generating a simulated membrane using the three-dimensional model, the simulated membrane being configured to cover the anatomical feature to be repaired, generating a digital two-dimensional flattened version of the simulated membrane, and generating code or instructions configured to cause a three-dimensional printer or milling device to produce a trimming guide that includes an opening corresponding to the flattened version of the simulated membrane and that further includes a cut-out configured to hold a premanufactured membrane. The trimming guide may be operative as a guide for marking or cutting the premanufactured membrane through the opening while the premanufactured membrane is held in the cut-out.
