Abstract: An image processing apparatus displays a list of document data managed by a document management system, checks-out the document data selected from the list, and prints it. When a check-in is performed, a print document is scanned and scan data obtained by the scan is checked-in to the document management system.

Abstract: Scan information which is to be used to generate a scan ticket for instructing a scan of a paper document and includes position information of a portable terminal is transmitted to a scan ticket server, the scan ticket is generated from the received scan information by the scan ticket server, the generated scan ticket is transmitted to an image processing apparatus, a scanned image of the paper document and attribute information including the position information are generated based on the scan ticket by the image processing apparatus, and the scanned image and the generated attribute information are transmitted to a map management server.

Abstract: A video coding device has an image motion detector, an inter-frame differencer, a discrete cosine transforming unit, and a variable length coder mounted on a single LSI. The video coding device further includes a first memory for storing a video signal block composed of a luminance signal and two color difference signals of the current frame, a second memory for storing a searching area for the luminance signal block of the previous frame, and a third memory for storing blocks of the luminance signal and two color difference signals corresponding to the detected motion vector.

Abstract: The high speed semiconductor memory includes at least one memory module and a cache controller. The at least one memory module includes a plurality of memory cells for storing data and a cache memory for storing part of the data stored in the plurality of memory cells, The cache controller includes a hit ratio counter for obtaining an average cache hit ratio and a comparator storing a desired threshold hit value and comparing the average cache hit ratio with the desired threshold value. The cache controller determines whether data corresponding to an input address are stored in the cache memory and allows to readout such data from the cache memory, otherwise controlling the read-out of data from the plurality of memory cells for storage in the cache memory so as to update the contents of the cache memory. A request signal for transferring data from the memory cells to the cache memory is generated when the average cache hit ratio is lower than the desired threshold value.

Abstract: An apparatus for detecting a motion of an image includes a first unit for calculating first partial accumulates of one block, a second unit for calculating second partial accumulates about candidate value of first partial accumulates selected in order from the smallest value and for storing total accumulates which are sums with the first and second partial accumulates, a unit for selecting a minimum total accumulate from the total accumulates stored in the second unit and for outputting the minimum total accumulate together with a location coordinate corresponding to the minimum total accumulate.
