Abstract: A motion locus creation system which is capable of displaying the trajectory of movement of an object to be tracked in an understandable way even if using no 3D model information. A camera unit forms a detection flag indicating whether or not the object to be tracked has been able to be detected from a captured image. A motion locus-type selection section determines the display type of a motion locus according to the detection flag. A motion locus creation section produces a motion locus according to coordinate data acquired by a tag reader section and a motion locus-type instruction signal selected by the motion locus-type selection section.

Abstract: A communication control apparatus, communication terminal apparatus, server apparatus, and communication control method are provided that continue video and/or voice communication in a way that feels seamless to the user even when communication conditions change in a mobile environment. Newly introducing a lower layer management section that notifies an upper layer of lower layer information such as field intensity and network congestion into a conventional communication terminal apparatus, which is configured in such a way that this lower layer information is concealed from the application, enables the connection control section that provides the application's service generation environment to recognize lower layer information directly, and makes possible various kinds of status determination and control changes based on lower layer information at the application level.

Abstract: Based on traffic that includes a plurality of types of calls and varies with time, resources are located efficiently in a base transceiver station that has a plurality of cards that perform baseband signal processing, and prevention of the occurrence of call loss is contrived.

Abstract: It is an object to achieve both improvements in system capacity and load distribution, by allocating resources so as not to generate the call loss as possible. A protected call is set, the resource allocating scheme is varied according to the resource state of each card, call allocating processing is performed to distribute loads at the low traffic time, while being performed to use up as possible resources of a card with a high in-use rate at the high traffic time, and it is thereby possible to obtain the advantageous effect of using resources with high efficiency to enable the load distribution over signal processing cards without generating the call loss as possible.

Abstract: A switching system capable of carrying out call recording without producing any reception delay in communication data. In this system, upon reception of a call connection request from a communication terminal 210, a call control apparatus 250 selects a multicast address, notifies the multicast address to all communication terminals 230 involving in the call connection and joins a multicast group indicated by the address. The communication terminal 210 transmits all voice data of the call using the address while the call is connected and the call control apparatus 250 mixes the voice packet directed to the own apparatus sent to the address and stores the voice packet in a user data voice storage database 160.

Abstract: A network server 110 for managing a terminal connected to a local IP network 111 comprises: a signaling control section 109 for receiving a registration request, sent from a mobile device 120 which has just been connected to the local IP network 111, requesting registration as a terminal connected to the network; an equipment information management section 107 for obtaining, as equipment information, information about pieces of equipment 112 to 117 connected to the local IP network 111; and a signaling control section 109 for sending to the mobile device 120 a response to the registration request, the response including equipment information obtained by the equipment information management section 107. A network server capable of using equipment in a network with ease can thus be provided.

Abstract: A base transceiver station enabling increases in the number of calls that can be accommodated at the same time. In the apparatus, each of signal processing cards 103-1 to 103-M has a predetermined number of resources to perform baseband processing on a call. Group creating section 108 compares the number of required resources of a call with a predetermined number, and sorts the call to a group corresponding to a result of the comparison. Resource control section 104 allocates a call to connect to either of signal processing cards 103-1 to 103-M. Further, resource control section 104 reallocates the call to another signal processing card of signal processing cards 103-1 to 103-M, according to the group to which the call, allocated to either of signal processing cards 103-1 to 103-M, is sorted.

Abstract: A vector block information indicating a plurality of line segment rows is read out from a block map. Each line segment row divides an area of a block from an area of a road in an image drawing region. Each point at which one end of a line segment row contacts with a boundary line of the image drawing region is set as a boundary point. In this case, a road crossing the boundary line of the image drawing region is indicated by a pair of line segment rows having a pair of boundary points close to each other. To determine an area of the road, the pair of boundary points are connected with each other through a connecting line segment. Therefore, a road area in the image drawing region can be automatically extracted from the block map.

Abstract: A map editing apparatus is provided with various sections having respective editing functions which can be selectively specified for operating on one or more user-selected elements of a displayed map, with each editing function serving to automatically execute a specific editing operation, which may utilize one or more predetermined parameters. The apparatus includes a conformity management section having a function for detecting when execution of an editing operation will result in nonconformity in the map, such as mutual overlapping of map elements, and for automatically causing such an editing operation to be executed in a modified form, such as to prevent occurrence of the nonconformity.
