摘要:
Service life of a semiconductor flush memory is extended by averaging the number of times of rewrite operation and non-uniformity of time associated with a synchronization processing is eliminated. The invention provides a mapping rule such that when a space bitmap recorded to a semiconductor flush memory spreads over three erase blocks in the semiconductor flush memory using a UDF file system as a file system, a Root directory is recorded to partial DSA1 corresponding to partial SBM1, a first file directory group is recorded to only partial DSA1 and partial DSA2 corresponding to partial SBM1 and partial SBM2, and a second file directory group is recorded to only partial DSA1 and partial DSA3 corresponding to partial SBM1 and partial SBM3.

The present invention improves user-friendliness and protect content with increased reliability when judging whether network devices belong to the same home network. While the connection to a network is established, each network device uses a peripheral device information collection unit to collect peripheral device information indicating which ones of devices are connected to the network, and store the collected information in a peripheral device information storage unit as home network information. When the belonging of a remote device is to be judged, the home network information stored in the remote device is received. A peripheral device information collation unit collates the received home network information with the home network information stored in the peripheral device information storage unit to judge whether the remote device belongs to the same network as the local device.

There are disclosed a digital device in compliance with UPnP and its telecommunication method for restructuring a device description in accordance with a change of arrangements of own digital devices, such as a change of connection of extended peripheral devices, for example, and transmitting and reflecting a restructured device description to other digital devices. It is determined whether or not a change for the peripheral device of the own digital device is made by referring to a device information table stored in a memory for storing information for the peripheral device included in the own digital device. If it is determined that there is a change for the peripheral devices as a result, the device description is obtained and further a device name of the peripheral device associated with the change is obtained from the device information table. Then, the device description is updated by executing a procedure for information for the device description based on the obtained device name. Information for indicating a location for storing the updated device description, such as a new advertise message describing URL, for example, is transmitted from the own digital device to a network.

The invention provides a stream data control module which can easily achieve a function expansion of a digital device and can simply, safely and inexpensively realize the recording and reproducing of stream data for a storage device. A stream data control module includes a stream I/F unit exclusively inputting and outputting stream data, a non-stream I/F unit inputting and outputting non-stream data, a device I/F unit providing an interface to data storage means, and a control unit executing a transfer process of the stream data in response to a recording command and a reproducing command given from host means. The control unit has a stream arrangement management unit managing a storing position of the stream data in the data storage means, a scheduling unit controlling a transfer order of the stream data and the non-stream data, and a command processing unit interpreting various commands given from the host means.

An electronic data storage system using an electronic tally system capable of managing electronic data in a safe manner without deteriorating a user friendly function thereof, and an information terminal apparatus to which the electronic data storage system has been applied are provided. An information terminal apparatus includes an electronic tally processing unit, a data storage unit, a data input/output unit and an access control unit for controlling a reading operation of the electronic tallied data which is stored in the data storage unit.
摘要:
Since a nonvolatile RAM allows random reading and writing operations, an erasing mode is unnecessary. From the system side, however, it is desirable to have the erasing mode because of its nonvolatile characteristic. Moreover, the erasing operation is desirably carried out at high speed with low power consumption. Therefore, memory cell arrays COA and DTA containing a plurality of memory cells MC each having a magnetoresistive element are provided, a series of data is written to the memory cell arrays COA and DTA, and at the time of erasing, an erasing operation is carried out by writing predetermined data only to the memory cell array COA.

In an apparatus of reproducing contents in which an encryption key is to be changed at predetermined intervals for copyright protection purpose, the contents can be reproduced or specially reproduced with no problem such as fast forward, and fast rewind. For special reproduction, data and key information needed therefor are made ready in advance, and using the data and the key information, the contents are specially reproduced. Alternatively, an encryption key generation rule is defined in advance for use in generation of an encryption key. By making any needed key information ready in advance from this rule, the contents can be reproduced and specially reproduced with no problem.
