Abstract: To provide a program viewing-recording system which executes program viewing or recording without a failure when a program is viewed or recorded using a program list created by a third party. In response to a user operation or an instruction from an application (107), a program information adjustment unit (110) obtains program information included in a program list from a program list management unit (109), compares the program information with broadcast program information held by a broadcast program information management unit (106), and corrects the program information on the basis of terminal setting data. When it is determined that the program information cannot be corrected using the information held by the broadcast program information management unit, the program information adjustment unit sends the program information and the terminal setting data to an external program information correction server (400) and requests the server to correct the program information.

Abstract: The invention is to solve a problem such that a server application that a secure device has cannot be used by a client application that a different secure device has. A secure device according the invention has an application storage section 202 for storing a client application of an application for performing data processing; an address calculation section 205 for determining whether or not the application storage section 202 has a server application for transferring data to and from the client application; and a referent existence determination section 210, when the address calculation section 205 determines that the application storage section 202 does not have a first server application for transferring data to and from a first client application, for determining whether or not a different secure device has the first server application.

Abstract: An information processing server (100), which selects and presents appropriate content when presenting, in a digital broadcast receiver, identification information of content on a network related to a certain broadcast program of interest to a user, is a server that transmits information to a program receiving terminal (101) that receives the broadcast program, and includes: a related content search unit (122) that searches out related content that is related to a broadcast program from content held by a server group (140) connected to the information processing server (100) via a network; a matching determination unit (123) that determines, from among the related content searched out by the related content search unit (122), matching content that is content having no possibility of interfering with viewing of the broadcast program; and an output unit (110) that transmits identification information for identifying the matching content, to the program receiving terminal.

Abstract: The present invention intends to hold safely string information such as secret information, or the like, and also to lessen user's burden of storing the information in connection to the string information. In registering the secret information, a coding section 16 synthesizes input correct secret information SD and individual characteristic information under a predetermined rule, and produces a code word S16. A check symbol for error correction is produced in the course of the coding of the coding section 16, and this check symbol is stored in a storing section 20. In reproducing the secret information, an error correcting section 22 applies an error correcting process using the check symbol stored in the storing section 20 to a code word, which is produced by the coding section 16 based on the input secret information SD and the individual characteristic information, as the object. Accordingly, the correct secret information is reproduced.

Abstract: The invention is to solve a problem such that a server application that a secure device has cannot be used by a client application that a different secure device has. A secure device according the invention has an application storage section 202 for storing a client application of an application for performing data processing; an address calculation section 205 for determining whether or not the application storage section 202 has a server application for transferring data to and from the client application; and a referent existence determination section 210, when the address calculation section 205 determines that the application storage section 202 does not have a first server application for transferring data to and from a first client application, for determining whether or not a different secure device has the first server application.

Abstract: The present invention has an object to provide a communication terminal, a secure device, and an integrated circuit, by which before data is transmitted by a transmission-sided communication terminal, a security process operation is carried out under environment of a communication terminal having a possibility of using the data with respect to threats caused by computer viruses and the like, which are operated in an illegal manner and are operable in correspondence with various sorts of platforms, and thus, safety characteristics with respect to the data can be assured. When a portable telephone 101 transmits data, a data analyzing unit 113 extracts identification information of a communication counter terminal 103 described in transmission data, and selects a predetermined verifying operation in response to an environment of the communication counter terminal 103 by referring to a permission information database 114.

Abstract: A secure device capable of reducing influences by interruptions of communication with an external device and allowing a user to install a desired application program speedily and safely. Command storage section (106) of this secure device (100) stores command groups for executing card issuance. Card issuance section (104) extracts a series of card issuance commands corresponding to a function of a card to be acquired from the command group stored in command storage section (106) and writes the commands into a buffer of card management section (102), Card management section (102) executes each card issuance command written by card issuance section (104). Card issuance is completed through internal processing of secure device (100).

Abstract: When a special relationship is present between IC card owners, authority of one of the IC card owners cannot be easily given to the other owner of the IC card. However, an IC card of a second owner can issue a public key certificate of the IC card of a first owner so that the IC card of the first owner can be recognized as a child card of the IC card of the second owner. Thus, the first generation card authenticated by a route authentication station is set as an ancestor which can generate a descendent card which receives the authentication. By checking which parent card has issued the public key authentication owned by the child card, it is possible to given the authority of the parent card to the child card.
