When license information is transferred between a server machine and a client machine, an identifier which is unique to a series of communication sequences is provided. The identifier is sent when a communication is performed between the two machines, as well as when the license information is updated. Therefore, when a message for transferring the license information is received by the use of the same identifier, a response message is returned without updating the license information.

A management device of a license management system acquires a usage request of a content from an SD card or a printer via a relay device, analyzes the acquired usage request, acquires usage environment information of the SD card or the printer from the relay device, analyzes the acquired usage environment information, generates license information including a usage rule corresponding to the analysis results of the usage request and the usage environment information, generates instruction information indicating how to handle the license information in the relay device based on the analysis result of the usage environment information, embeds the generated instruction information in the license information, and sends the license information to the relay device. The relay device receives the license information in which the instruction information is embedded, and transfers the received license information to the SD card or the printer according to the instruction information which is embedded in the license information with performing certain processing or without performing any processing to the license information.
摘要:
A method for judging use permission of information on one or more terminal apparatuses which uses content provided by a content provider and metadata provided by a metadata provider and supplementing the content, the method comprising: metadata use permission judgment judging use permission of the metadata based on usage control information regarding use control of the metadata; and using the metadata in the case where in said metadata use permission judgment, the use of the metadata is permitted. Specifically, the usage control information includes the first signer identification information which identifies the range of the provider of the metadata that can be used. The metadata includes a signature of the metadata provider identified in the first signer identification information, and the second signer identification information identifying the signer of the signature. And, said metadata use permission judgment judges the metadata use permission based on the metadata provider identified in said first signer identification information, said second signer identification information, and signature verification.

A receiving apparatus includes an information receiving portion for receiving images, speech, text, data and the like, an additional information receiving portion for receiving additional information comprising a next key word indicating the contents of information scheduled for the next transmission, a received information synthesizing portion for synthesizing the information received by the information receiving portion and the additional information received by the additional information receiving portion and a display portion for displaying the information synthesized by the received information synthesizing portion. A user can look at the information displayed on the display portion along with the contents of the information scheduled for the next transmission.
摘要:
An information forwarding system and method including an information input device for inputting search conditions to a remote data base. The remote data base includes a search device for searching the data base based on the search conditions so as to gain search results. The information forwarding system includes an information display for displaying the search results; a selector for selecting one, or more, search results from among the search results; and an output device for sending the designated contents selected by the selector to a separate supply device so as to designate the operation of the separate supply device.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus comprises an indication means placed on a manuscript; a reading unit for reading information on the manuscript; an indication means detection unit for detecting the indication means placed on the manuscript, thereby detecting a region indicated by the indication means on the manuscript; and an information processing unit performing a predetermined process to the information obtained from the region indicated by the detected indication means, amongst the information on the manuscript read by the reading unit. Therefore, by only placing the indication means on a target portion to be processed on the manuscript, the portion is detected by the indicated means detection unit to be subjected to a process such as scale-up by the information processing unit.

摘要:
A process cartridge detachably mountable to a main assembly of an electrophotographic image forming apparatus includes a positioning portion for positioning the process cartridge when mounted to a mounting position of the main assembly. The positioning portion is engageable with a positioning member provided in the main assembly of the apparatus, and is projected from the cartridge coaxially with and at one longitudinal end side of a electrophotographic photosensitive drum. A drum driving force receiving member receives driving force for rotating the drum from the main assembly when the process cartridge is mounted, the drum driving force receiving member being juxtaposed with the positioning member coaxially with the drum and projected outwardly beyond the positioning member. A transporting member driving force receiving member receives driving force for rotating a toner transporting member from the main assembly when the process cartridge is mounted, wherein the transporting member driving force receiving member is disposed at the same side as the drum driving force receiving member disposed in a longitudinal direction of the drum.
