摘要:
The data that a user wants are reliably provided, while avoiding any fraudulent use of the provided data. The present invention provides a data storage apparatus to be connected to an external apparatus by way of a predetermined connection interface, the apparatus comprising a data storage section including a first storage area adapted to be used for freely writing data from the external apparatus connected to the data storage apparatus and limit reading of the written data in the data format used by the external apparatus and a second storage area storing software for executing an operation of reading out the data written in the first storage area, and a control section that controls the operation of the data storage section of reading out the data written in the first storage area by executing the software stored in the second storage area in response to a request from the external apparatus to read out the data written in the first storage area and transmitting the read out data to the external apparatus connected to the data storage apparatus after converting the read out data into a signal of the output format of the external apparatus without fail.

A password is effectively prevented from being leaked to enhance the degree of security and, at the same time, can be input without difficulty. There is provided a removable information storage apparatus equipped with a predetermined interface for connecting itself to an external appliance and a security section with limited accesses from the external appliance, which includes a password input unit to be used that inputs a password of a predetermined number of words to be notified only to the information storage apparatus without being output to the external appliance connected to it by way of the predetermined interface, a password collating unit that collates the password input by way of the password input unit, and an access authorizing unit that authorizes an access to the security section from the external appliance connected to it by way of the predetermined interface in response to the collation of the password by the password collating unit. The password input unit is adapted to be used for inputting a password of not greater than a predetermined number of words as the password to be collated by the password collating unit, and the password collating unit is adapted to collate the password of not greater than the predetermined number of words input by way of the password input unit.

A storage device that can be attached and/or detached to and/or from an information-processing device is provided. The storage device includes a storage unit including a first area provided to store an encryption key used to encode first information and first authentication information used to perform authentication, and a second area storing second information encoded by the information-processing device by using the encryption key, an authentication unit configured to authenticate a user based on second authentication information generated by the information-processing device based on third information input by the user and the first authentication information, a transmission unit configured to transmit the encryption key to the information-processing device when validity of the user is confirmed through the authentication, and a control unit configured to have control over writing and/or reading the encoded second information into and/or from the second area.
摘要:
Quality of a plurality of images having a common characteristic is confirmed collectively and the images after the confirmation are transferred collectively. Images acquired by a reading apparatus are input to a workstation and stored in a recording apparatus. At the time of image confirmation, the workstation groups image data representing the images stored in the recording apparatus into image groups classified by examination. For an image group including a plurality of images, the images included therein are displayed and their quality is judged by comparison therebetween. When the images are judged to be appropriate, the images are transferred collectively as the image group to a transfer destination apparatus.
摘要:
A plurality of radiation image signals respectively representing a plurality of radiation images of an object, which radiation images have been formed with several kinds of radiation having different energy distributions, are obtained. An energy subtraction image signal, which has been formed from the plurality of the radiation image signals, is also obtained. Compression processing is performed on the plurality of the radiation image signals and the energy subtraction image signal. The energy subtraction image signal is compressed with a compressibility higher than the compressibility with respect to each of the radiation image signals.
摘要:
In an image processing method, a direction transforming process is performed on an image signal representing an image and in accordance with information giving specifics about an image recording technique. In cases where a marker pattern, which is represented by a marker signal, is to be appended to the image represented by the image signal, the direction and the appending position of the marker signal are determined in accordance with the information giving specifics about the image recording technique. The marker signal is appended to the image signal in accordance with the thus determined direction and the thus determined appending position of the marker signal. The marker signal is thus appended to the image signal in an appropriate state in accordance with the specifics about the image recording technique.
