摘要:
Information terminal and information sharing method are provided which consider survival time of contents at a transmission destination and propagate the contents widely so as to be suitable for contents sharing. In the information terminal and information sharing method, contents allotted with survival time is received, the survival time allotted to the contents is changed, contents allotted with the changed survival time is transmitted to a different information terminal, and the contents is deleted after the changed survival time has expired.

Communication using IPv6 is carried out, and conversion is given to a prefix of an IPv6 address in a firewall. A security channel for mutual authentication with an out-of-home apparatus or the like is carried out by the firewall, and only identification of an in-home apparatus is carried out on an in-home network by the firewall. A PC is connected to a PC in-home network different from the in-home network, and communication between the PC and the in-home apparatus is always carried out via the firewall.

The present invention concerns an information processing device which checks whether the content related information retrieved by the content reproducing device is associated with the content pieces recorded in the content reproducing device and which changes the functional operation and selection operation on the screen according to the check result. More specifically, the information processing device comprises: a content related information retrieve unit to retrieve the content related information such as content evaluation results into the content reproducing device; a content management unit to manage content management information such as information about content pieces recorded or received by the content reproducing device and about licenses for the content pieces; and a content control unit to determine a method of processing the content related information retrieved by the content related information retrieve unit according to the content management information held by the content management unit.
摘要:
An information processing system is configured such that which when an application handling multimedia, especially, moving images is performed by an information processor such as a personal computer, a sufficient processing performance is realized with the conventional CPU and bus capabilities. The information processing system includes a bus adaptor or bus converter for connecting a CPU bus and a system bus. The bus converter includes an operation processing unit (ALU) capable of performing a portion of an operating function performed by the conventional CPU or a portion of an operating function performed by an image processing board connected to the system bus, whereby the bus converter takes over a portion of a processing to be performed by the CPU or I/O module. Thereby, an overhead time for data transfer through the buses is reduced so that the total performance of the system is improved. Also, since a processing unqualified for the CPU, for example, a bit operation can be performed by a dedicated hardware, the information processing performance is improved.
