I would like to briefly introduce the city in this article.<\/p>\n<p>I arrived at Cambridge on 1st July, and now I&#8217;m staying in one of several dormitories called &#8220;college&#8221;. I could fortunately book a single room in Wolfson college for a month, thanks to current long vacation until October.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/f.hatena.ne.jp\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718022704\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn-ak.f.st-hatena.com\/images\/fotolife\/T\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718\/20110718022704.jpg\" alt=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022704j:image:w360\" title=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022704j:image:w360\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" width=\"360\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Picture 1: Entrance of Wolfson College <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/f.hatena.ne.jp\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718022702\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn-ak.f.st-hatena.com\/images\/fotolife\/T\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718\/20110718022702.jpg\" alt=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022702j:image:w360\" title=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022702j:image:w360\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" width=\"360\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Picture 2: Inner court<\/p>\n<p>I am staying here as an academic visitor (\u5b66\u8853\u7814\u7a76\u54e1) to the Institute for Manufacturing (IfM) within Department of Engineering, University of Cambridge. My work here is mainly to examine decision-theoretic approach for &#8216;maintenance&#8217; on products. Of course I will apply the approach to the case of residential solar power systems, that is main objective of my PhD research in Tokyo Tech. <\/p>\n<p>I think the past 2 weeks were fruitful. I&#8217;ve had one meeting with adviser here and will have next meeting in next week with a PhD student here who have done similar research&#8230; These days I&#8217;m making every effort to read books\/papers and understand what previous studies have done in this field.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/f.hatena.ne.jp\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718022700\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn-ak.f.st-hatena.com\/images\/fotolife\/T\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718\/20110718022700.jpg\" alt=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022700j:image:w360\" title=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022700j:image:w360\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" width=\"360\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Picture 3: IfM (Alan Reece Building)<\/p>\n<p>Basically the city is filled with nature and magnificent buildings. <\/p>\n<p>On the way to the IfM, I&#8217;ve seen rabits several times. <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/f.hatena.ne.jp\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718022701\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn-ak.f.st-hatena.com\/images\/fotolife\/T\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718\/20110718022701.jpg\" alt=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022701j:image:w360\" title=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022701j:image:w360\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" width=\"360\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Picture 4: Road to IfM<\/p>\n<p>In the city center, especially on Sunday, there are lots of tourists.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/f.hatena.ne.jp\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718022659\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/cdn-ak.f.st-hatena.com\/images\/fotolife\/T\/TokyoTechAbeLab\/20110718\/20110718022659.jpg\" alt=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022659j:image:w360\" title=\"f:id:TokyoTechAbeLab:20110718022659j:image:w360\" class=\"hatena-fotolife\" width=\"360\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Picture 5: King&#8217;s Chapel &#038; College<\/p>\n<p>I would report my life in this blog occasionally, perhaps monthly.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Toshihiro Mukai (\u5411\u4e95\u767b\u5fd7\u5e83)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi everyone.
