A transmission management system includes: a relay device management unit that manages relay device-specifying information for specifying each relay device on a communication network, for every piece of relay device-identification information for identifying each relay device; a terminal management unit that manages terminal-specifying information for specifying each transmission terminal on the communication network; a receiving unit that receives, from a transmission terminal as a predetermined request source, terminal-identification information for the request source and terminal-identification information for a transmission terminal as a destination; an extracting unit that extracts the terminal-specifying information of a corresponding transmission terminal based on the terminal-identification information for the request source; and a primary selecting unit that selects two or more pieces of relay device-identification information of relay devices, to which relay device-specifying information representing top two or more IP addresses closest to the IP address represented by the extracted terminal-specifying information, is allocated.

In a layer 2 communication device included in multiple layer 2 networks, an identifying unit identifies a layer 3 control packet from among packets passing through, and an embedding unit embeds routing control information for the layer 2 network in the layer 3 control packet. In a layer 3 communication device connected to the multiple layer 2 networks, a selecting unit selects from the multiple layer 2 networks, an optimum L2 network, that is a layer 2 network forming an optimum communication route, based on a communication destination, and a setting unit sets a packet to be transmitted to the optimum L2 network.

An image searching apparatus has a search target decision unit which decides a search target image out of images stored in an image storing unit; a search content selection unit which obtains a search condition to indicate search content specified by a user operation; a search execution unit which executes content search processing for the search target image using the search condition; and a search result display control unit which displays the search result. If a bracketed image group is included in the image storing unit, the search target decision unit sets a representative image selected from the image group to a search target image, and excludes images other than the representative image in the image group from search targets.

The invention discloses a method for applying deterministic finite element software to the analysis of a simple or large-size complicated structure containing interval parameters. The method for applying the deterministic finite element software to the analysis of the simple or large-size complicated structure containing the interval parameters comprises the following steps of (1), establishing the geometric model of the structure; (2), inputting the interval parameters of the structure; (3), selecting a unit type, a material attribute and a boundary condition, and carrying out grid discretization on the structure; (4), getting back data in steps (2) and (3) to construct an input file of the deterministic finite element software; (5), running the deterministic finite element software to generate a vertex stiffness matrix and a vertex load vector; (6), converting the static problem of the structure containing the interval parameters into a series of sub-models of the static problem of a structure containing deterministic parameters according to a vertex solution theorem; (7), solving the sub-models by adopting a parallel algorithm, so as to obtain structural static responses of all the sub-models; (8), carrying out post processing on a result to obtain the upper bounds, the lower bounds and the mid-values of the structural static responses, and carrying out result visualization as required. By using the method for applying the deterministic finite element software to the analysis of the simple or large-size complicated structure containing the interval parameters, a succinct and effective method is provided for solving the interval analysis of the complicated structure.
