The image forming apparatus comprises: a user environment information acquiring unit that acquires user environment information; a user environment information reflecting unit that generates the screen representing the settings by using the user environment information; a capability acquiring unit that acquires capability information representing capabilities; a settability determining unit that determines the settability of various settings; a display control unit that is a unit displaying the screen on the display unit and further displays the screen that represents a determination result of the settability determining unit on the display unit; a search unit that searches for a first image forming apparatus; and a search result output unit that further displays the screen representing a search result of the search unit on the display unit through the display control unit.
Abstract:
Disclosed is an image processing apparatus having a function to cooperatively output, via a cooperative image processing apparatus, document data, including a data sending unit that sends to the cooperative image processing apparatus the document data to be output, for which the total limited number of output times is set, with output setting information including an allocated number of output times for the document data individually allocated for the cooperative image processing apparatus; and a number updating unit that updates the total limited number of output times set for the document data based on the allocated number of output times by subtracting the allocated number of output times from the total limited number of output times, when the data sending unit sends the document data with the output setting information to the cooperative image processing apparatus.
Abstract:
According to one embodiment, a software conversion program product having a computer readable medium including programmed instructions, wherein the instructions, when executed by a computer system including a host processor and one or more accelerator processors, causes the computer system to perform: analyzing input software and obtaining a compute intensity calculated by dividing the number of arithmetic processing times in a loop by the size of data accessed in the loop and a data reference area size that is a total size of areas where data is referred to; determining a processor that executes loops on the basis of obtained values and a preliminarily prepared win-loss table in which wins and losses of execution times between the host processor and the accelerator processor are defined; and converting the input software so that the determined processor executes the loops.
Abstract:
A real-time system includes a plurality of processors for executing jobs of a plurality of periodic tasks each having predetermined period, assigns each job in a period of each of the tasks to the processors, calculates distribution of execution times during which jobs assigned are executed on the processors, determines, based on the distribution, whether each of the jobs finishes by a deadline within the period, determines that scheduling is impossible, when one of the jobs is determined not to finish by the deadline, determines whether the distribution of the execution times of the jobs each determined to finish by the deadline converge, and determines that scheduling is possible, when the distribution converge.
Abstract:
A write control method of exclusively controlling write requests from a plurality of user terminals to an identical structured document is disclosed. The identical structured document includes a plurality of elements each containing document content. A monitor field is set in units of the elements within the identical structured document. Upon accepting one write request from one user terminal, it is determined if the one write request is directed to the document content under monitoring by referral to the monitor field. Then, the one write request is handled to reject overwriting of the document content despite the one write request if the document content has been rewritten by another write request from another user terminal in advance.
Abstract:
An instrument includes a holder for holding a medium, a cap capable of covering a tip end portion of the medium, and a knock member provided to be capable of knocking to attach and detach the cap. The cap is connected to the knock member via a rotational transform mechanism. The rotational transform mechanism advances the cap in accordance with one knock of the knock member in the axial direction, the rotational transform mechanism rotates the cap around an axis parallel to the axial direction, then retreats the cap, so that the state in which the cap covers the tip end portion of the medium and the state in which the cap allows the tip end portion of the medium to be exposed are switchable for each knock of the knock member.
Abstract:
Schedulability determination method of determining whether real-time scheduling of tasks is possible using processors, includes calculating Lk and Σi=1 . . . NMi*Uk,i, (1≦k,i≦N;k,i:integer) where Lk corresponds to task-k, Mi represents number of the one or more processors simultaneously used by task-i, Uk,i corresponds to task-k and task-i, and N represents number of tasks, and determining that real-time scheduling of tasks is possible using processors, if tasks all satisfy conditions, Σi=1 . . . NMi*Uk,i≦Lk for all k (1≦k≦N), wherein Lk corresponds to task-k which is to be detected to satisfy corresponding one of conditions, Lk being expressed as follows if Mk≦(M+1)/2, Lk=(M−Mk+1)−(M−2Mk+1)Ck/Dk, andUk,i is expressed as follows if Mk≦(M+1)/2, Mi
Abstract:
An image processing system includes a generating unit and a storing unit. The generating unit determines a subject included in a wide-angle image and generate a partial image including the subject from the wide-angle image. The storing unit stores the partial image in association with the wide-angle image from which the partial image is extracted.
Abstract:
An information processing method is performed by an information processing apparatus including a communication interface and an imaging device. The method includes acquiring a wide-angle image from an external imaging device via the communication interface; invoking an imaging function implemented by the imaging device; acquiring a captured image imaged by the imaging device; and associating the acquired wide-angle image with the acquired captured image.
