Abstract:
PURPOSE:To correct firmware incorporated in a mass-produced custom LSI. CONSTITUTION:A correction contents storage part 2, a correction address storage part 3, a comparison part 4, and an access change part 6 are added to a one-chip microcomputer 1 previously. Correction information on the firmware which is stored in a ROM 15 is written in the correction contents storage part 2 and correction address storage part 3 from outside. The comparison part 4 compares the execution address in an address bus 16 with the correction address stored in the correction address storage part 3. When both the addresses do not match each other, operation is carried out as usual. When both the addresses coincide with each other, the correction contents stored in the correction contents storage part 2 are executed under the control of the access change part 6 which inputs the coincidence signal instead of the correction part in the ROM 15.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a cellular phone terminal wherein an advantage of sorting is not spoiled based on a creation date and time information, both information created in an own device and recorded on a recording medium and information provided from the outside and recorded on the recording medium can be managed, and the sorting of information received through a network etc. can be performed exactly. SOLUTION: When an internal content file generated in own device or an external content file acquired from the outside is recorded on a recording means 10, information which shows that it is a content file generated in own device is stored and recorded on the recording medium 10 in the internal content file. Moreover, the information which shows that it is the content file acquired from the exterior is stored and recorded on the recording medium 10 in the external content file.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simply and flexibly configure processing different for every content to be managed. SOLUTION: An entry i of a content management file is comprised of a reproduction beginning script 81 which is activated before reproduction beginning of a content i when reproduction of the content i is instructed and a reproduction finish script 82 which is activated when reproduction of the content i is finished corresponding to attribute information that is comprised of a pointer to the content i, which is information that indicates a location of the content i on a recording medium 2, recording date, change date and protect information, a thumbnail of the content i, text information and operation input from a user who is received through an operation part. This method can be applied to a photographing apparatus that records image data for a photographed object into a recording medium. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for recording additional information about an imaging environment, while associating the additional information with the information of a decoding/reproducing unit, when information about a plurality of decoding/reproducing units is contained within information in a read/write unit for a recording medium, in a method for recording image data obtained by imaging by an imaging device on the recording medium. SOLUTION: Imaged information is compressed before being recorded on the recording medium. The additional information is generated that indicates the environment at the imaging of the image information corresponding to one or a plurality of decoding/reproducing units within the information of a specified plurality of the decoding/reproducing units of the compressed imaged information included in a specified time. The information of a decoding/reproducing unit and the additional information are recorded on the recording medium for each data including the information of the specified plurality of the decoding/reproducing units and the additional information.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To manage both information created by a self-machine and recorded on a recording medium and information provided from the outside and recorded on the recording medium on the basis of creating date and hour information without damaging a classification advantage so that even the information obtained through a network or the like can be accurately classified. SOLUTION: When an internal content file generated in the self-machine and an external content file acquired from the outside are recorded in a recording means 10, and at least when the internal contents file is recorded in the recording means, an original record file flag indicating a content file generated in the self-machine is stored in the internal content file and recorded in the recording medium 10.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical disk recording device and method which adopt a data recording system of 1 scene / 1 chapter (CHP) while conforming to a DVD-video format and realize the direct linking to each CHP from a main menu. SOLUTION: The optical disk recording device is furnished with a unit data group forming part for forming the unit data group consisting of at least one or more unit data, a thumb-nail picture producing part for producing the thumb-nail picture of unit data, a link information producing part for producing the unit data link information for linking to each of unit data forming the unit data group, a data group producing part for producing the data group consisting of the unit data group and the unit data link information, and a closed session process part for performing the closed session process to make the optical disk whereon at least one or more data groups are recorded, readable by another reproducing device. By the closed session process part, a menu picture including the thumb-nail picture is produced in accordance with the unit data, and also the menu picture link information for linking to the menu picture is produced, then the menu picture and the menu picture link information are recorded on the optical disk.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify management of a bus by deciding whether a channel and a bus band which are necessary for the synchronous communication are prepared according to the channel and bus using states which are acquired by an acquiring means. SOLUTION: Every node 12 other than its own one included in a communication system transmits the read instructions to a working channel register REG1 and a bus capacity register REG2 which are prepared at a bust management node 11 in an asynchronous communication packet before nodes 12 starts a synchronous communication and then reads out the contents of these instructions to confirm the numbers of unused channels and the remaining capacity of a bus. Then the write instructions are transmitted to both registers REG1 and REG2 to store the number of the channel to be used and the capacity of the bus to be used in these registers respectively as long as an unused channel and the remaining capacity of a bus are confirmed.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily manage a bus by writing a channel number and bus capacity the use of which are started in each of first and second storage means when an idle channel and idle capacity required for performing synchronous communication exist in the contents read by a reading means. SOLUTION: A value (a) of a used channel register REG1 is read by other node 12. When a bit of zero exists in the value (a), a value obtained by defining a bit of a channel which is desired to be used for the synchronous communication as 1 is defined as (b) and the value of the REG1 is rewritten to (b) by other node 12. An instruction to rewrite the value of the register REG1 to (b) is transmitted to a bus management node 11 by a node by which a channel is desired to be taken. Next, a value (c) of a bus capacitance register REG2 is read by other node 12. When the value (c) is larger than a bas capacitance to be newly used, a value obtained by subtracting the capacitance desired to be used is defined as (d) and the value of the REG2 is rewritten to (d) by other node 12.
