- determining and “determining” used in this disclosure may include a wide variety of actions.
- “Judgment” and “decision” are, for example, judgment (judging), calculation (calculating), calculation (computing), processing (processing), derivation (deriving), investigation (investigating), search (looking up, search, inquiry). It may include (eg, searching in a table, database or another data structure), ascertaining as “judgment” or “decision”.
- judgment and “decision” are receiving (for example, receiving information), transmitting (for example, transmitting information), input (input), output (output), and access. It may include (for example, accessing data in memory) to be regarded as “judgment” or “decision”.
- judgment and “decision” are considered to be “judgment” and “decision” when the things such as solving, selecting, choosing, establishing, and comparing are regarded as “judgment” and “decision”. Can include. That is, “judgment” and “decision” may include considering some action as “judgment” and “decision”. Further, “judgment (decision)” may be read as “assuming", “expecting”, “considering” and the like.
- the term "A and B are different” may mean “A and B are different from each other”.
