Abstract: A technique for notifying a person who is engaged in a telephone call with a second
person that a third person is calling him or her is disclosed. The notification comprises not
a series of beeps but a voice - synthetically generated or pre-recorded - that has at least
one different psychoacoustic characteristic than the voice of the second person. By using a
notification that is psychoacoustically different than the voice of the second person, the
ability of the first person to simultaneously perceive and understand the notification  and 
the voice of the second person is enhanced. Example psychoacoustic characteristics of a
voice include, but are not limited to, the gender of the speaker's voice ( i.e ., male or
female), the natural language of the speaker's voice ( e.g ., English, Spanish, French,  etc .),
and the smoothness of the speaker's voice ( e.g ., silky or raspy,  etc .).

Abstract: In a computer system where a plurality of host computers (1, 1') and a plurality of storage apparatus (2, 2') are interconnected, in order to carry out data migration between the storage apparatus (2, 2') transparently to the host computers (1, 1'), a back end server (3) provides a virtual disk to the host computers (1, 1'). From the host computers (1, 1'), at first, the virtual disk looks the same as the old storage subsystem (2). When migrating the data from the old storage subsystem (2) to the new storage subsystem (2'), at first, the back end server (3) instructs the data migration unit (24) to execute the data migration processing. Subsequently, the back end server (3) switches the setting of the virtual disk, thereby causing the virtual disk to correspond to the new storage subsystem (2').
