Abstract: A navigation system is provided which facilitates discrimination between an icon of a facility associated with a route, along which the user is expected to move from now on, and an ordinary icon. To achieve this, it includes a destination estimating unit for acquiring information about a driving history and for estimating a destination from the information about the driving history acquired; a drawing decision changing unit for drawing a destination candidate estimated by the destination estimating unit in a form different from an icon of a non-destination candidate; and an information display unit for causing the icon drawn by the drawing decision changing unit to be displayed.

Abstract: In an information distribution device for supporting an individual-adaptive system, when a car navigation system is employed as an individual-adaptive system, the system includes an individual identification section which can be connected to a portable cellular phone, enables entry of a portable cellular phone number from the portable cellular phone, and determines a setting status of a device in accordance with the input phone number; and an operation control section which controls the setting status of the device in accordance with the setting status determined by the individual identification section.

Abstract: A number-of-commands counter counts number of commands received during a predetermined measurement period, which is timed by a timer. An access interval determiner determines command reception frequency from the count result, and decides on an optimum access interval time. An MIB update unit updates <access interval MIB> based on the optimum access interval time. An SNMP agent responds to an obtaining command and transmits <access interval MIB>. An MIB receiver receives <access interval MIB> and an MIB obtainer analyzes <access interval MIB> to recognize the access interval time. A timer setter sets the recognized access interval time at a timer as a timer setting.

Abstract: When a multifunction apparatus transmits a request for a menu to a network menu server, the network menu server transmits a network menu data table including functions provided in the multifunction apparatus and functions provided in the network menu server. When the network menu is displayed on a panel, a function can be selected from the panel of the multifunction apparatus. When the selected function is provided in the multifunction apparatus, the function is executed by the multifunction apparatus. When the selected function is provided in the network menu server, the function is executed by coordination of both the network menu server and the multifunction apparatus.

Abstract: Each operation screen for jobs to be executed by a multifunction apparatus is layered, according operation steps of the multifunction apparatus, and registered in a distribution server. Menus for displaying the operation screens are also registered in the distribution server, the menus being arranged in a tree-shape configuration. Corresponding to an operation on the multifunction apparatus, the menus are sequentially delivered from the distribution server to the multifunction apparatus, starting from a menu in the top layer. The multifunction apparatus displays each operation screen based on the delivered menus. Menu includes display text (text displayed on the operation screen), next screen name (screen name of the subordinate screen displayed on the operation screen), and action (command for the multifunction apparatus to execute).
