摘要:
A distributed memory computer system periodically performs memory copy among a plurality of computers by using general-purpose communication control devices and a transmission line of the CSMA/CD type. A master computer periodically generates a synchronizing packet, and transmits data for memory copy and normal data in a time slot immediately after the transmission of the synchronizing packet. Each computer other than the master computer transmits the data for memory copy and the normal data in its own time slot after the elapse of a predetermined time. The respective computers complete their transmissions within predetermined times. Since the time slots are assigned to the respective computers, the number of computers which may compete with each other on a transmission line can be restricted and each computer can be assured a periodic opportunity to transmit data.

A network interface apparatus connected between a LAN adaptor possessed by a computer and a transceiver provided on a network includes a buffer memory for storing data, a first control circuit for communicating with the LAN adaptor, a second control circuit for communicating with the transceiver, and a processor for controlling the first and second control circuits to control the transfer of data between the LAN adaptor and the transceiver. The processor causes the buffer memory to store transmit data transmitted from the LAN adaptor and transmits the stored transmit data in the buffer memory to the transceiver in a transmission time zone which is allotted beforehand. The transmission time zone is determined by the processor on the basis of the reception of a synchronizing packet which is transferred on the network. Receive data received from the transceiver is selected by the processor so that only the selected receive data is sent to the LAN adaptor. A reference for the selection may include a protocol type, a port number on TCP/IP or the like.
摘要:
A method or system to change a display output by a program without modifying the program. The invention also provides a program or computer to accomplish this change in display output. The invention intercepts and converts a graphics display command into the desired configuration and also performs reverse conversion of input data in compliance with computer environment assumed from the program. Additionally the invention converts data exchanged between the program and computer system mutually as needed.

It is designed to connect a duplicated LAN to a network terminal such as a controller having a standard serial or parallel interface, a computer having only one LAN interface, or a computer having only one communication line interface. The network interface apparatus for connecting a network terminal and a duplicated LAN comprises a device for controlling interfaces with the network terminal and the LAN transmission line of each of the duplicated LAN, a buffer, and a sending device to both, and the data from the network terminal is buffered in the buffer, and when the buffered data reaches a fixed amount, the data is sent to both LANs of the duplicated LAN. On the other hand, with respect to the data received from each LAN transmission line of the duplicated LAN, only the data which is judged as earlier arrival data is sent to the network terminal.

A network system having a plurality of interconnected networks each having a policy server. The policy server sets a quality-guaranteed path in the network according to a policy held in the policy server. The policy server includes: a policy holding unit to hold a policy defining a quality that can be guaranteed in its own network, or local network, for an inter-network communication; a policy publicizing unit to make public the policy held in the policy holding unit to the policy servers of other networks; a guaranteed quality calculation unit to calculate, from a policy publicized by a policy server of a network on a path between the local network and other network, a quality that can be guaranteed for the path between the local network and the other network; and a quality-guaranteed path setting unit to provide a quality-guaranteed path, the quality-guaranteed path having a guaranteed quality within the quality calculated by the guaranteed quality calculation unit for the path between the local network and the other network.

An information service system including a plurality of receiving stations and information service facilities. The information service facilities include a memory circuit which stores beforehand a distribution destination information set of receiving station identifiers allocated to the receiving stations, distribution destination information set being disposed in a predetermined order within the memory circuit, a memory circuit for storing a plurality of information to be supplied to receiving stations, an enciphering circuit for generating an enciphering key for optical receiving stations within a group which performs broadcast communications, and enciphering the service information with the enciphering key, and a circuit for transmitting the enciphered service information and service destination codes of service destination receiving stations encoded from the distribution destination information set, through broadcast communications. Each receiving station includes a memory circuit for storing beforehand its own identifier and the distribution destination information set of the group which performs broadcast communications, a receiver unit for receiving the enciphered service information and the service destination codes from the information service facilities, and a deciphering circuit for generating a deciphering key corresponding to the distribution destination information set in accordance with the received service destination codes and the corresponding, and previously stored distribution destination information, only when the own identifier of the receiving station is contained in the service destination codes, and the deciphering the enciphered service information with the deciphering key.

In view of providing a network system enabling communication having passed fire walls (repeaters) and assuring high security and operation flexibility through access control based on users and applications, a user-held table indicating correspondence between repeaters and passwords, a repeater-held table indicating correspondence between users and passwords and a table indicating access regions are defined respectively for users, departments of users and official positions of users and a route control information storing table indicating correspondence between networks and next transmitting destination is also provided to execute the access control for each user. Moreover, the repeater is provided with the repeating route control table so that a repeater located in the course of route to the transmitting destination computer and allowing communication from the transmitting side computer is selected from the data repeating control table and the process for requesting the repeating operation of communication with the destination is executed to the selected repeater.
摘要:
A shared window of the same content is displayed on each display device of a plurality of computers connected through a communication network for use in a collaborative work and objects are displayed on the window. Each object is displayed based on object management data having a plurality of types of attributes set therein and the shared windows on which the objects are displayed are limited by the attribute values of the attributes. Further, participants of the collaborative work who are permitted to erase the objects are limited by the settings of the attribute values of the attributes.
