Abstract: An operation device according to the present invention is an operation device including an operating unit capable of an opening-and-closing operation to operate opening and closing of a window mounted on a vehicle. The operating unit is configured to be capable of the opening-and-closing operation at a reference position, and is configured so that the operating unit itself shifts from the reference position to another position by a shifting operation and, when the shifting operation is canceled, the operating unit itself returns from the other position to the reference position. Furthermore, the operating unit is configured to accept the opening-and-closing operations when the operating unit is located at the reference position before and after shifting to the other position by the shifting operation as operation instructions to open and close different windows, respectively.

Abstract: A client (such as a PC, portable telephone, PDA, electrical appliances), to which a device such as a IC card is connected, starts a handshake protocol to request a server to start communication. When communication is established via the handshake protocol, the initiative of communication is transferred to the server, and the state changes into a neutral state. In this neutral state, a control packet including a particular number of messages and a finished message is transmitted from the server to the client. If the client receives the control packet, the client performs a process according to the messages included in the control packet. This makes it possible to remotely control a device via a network in a highly reliable and efficient manner.
