Notes & Inquiries【Guide for User Report Content】
This document serves as a guide for generating a 'user report' rather than a conventional research
paper. It primarily focuses on outlining the utilization of shared facilities within the ARIM- support
implementing institution. Please provide a thorough description of your research findings within
this framework.
【Information Disclosure Notice】
The information provided in the user report, including your name and affiliation, will be madepublicly accessible on the webpage after a suitable period. It will be freely available for viewing
and downloading unless certain items are specified otherwise. Please exercise caution to avoid
including excessive personal or sensitive information. All provided information may be shared andreused within the ARIM - participating institutions.
【Deferment System for Public Disclosure】
 However, in instances where there are legitimate reasons preventing the immediate release of
the proposal, such as those outlined below, the release may be postponed for a maximum of
two years:
１）A scheduled patent application filing.
２）A scheduled conference presentation or paper publication.
 Please be aware that the postponement of publication is temporary. During this period, it isrequired to prepare a formal report using a designated form. This report should be submitted
to the support implementing institution within the fiscal year. We will store it without publicly
disclosing within the supporting implementing institution.
 After the grace period (up to two years), you will be requested to resubmit a formal report withthe same proposal number. During this resubmission, you will be prompted to include any new
developments, such as patent applications, conference presentations, papers, etc., that haveoccurred during the grace period.
