Abstract: An information processing device includes: a memory that stores function identifiers assigned to functions built into the information processing device, and function identifiers assigned to functions not built into the information processing device; a display controller that causes a display unit to display the function identifiers stored in the memory; a manipulation unit that accepts manipulation for specifying one of the function identifiers displayed by the display controller; and a transmission unit that transmits, if the one of the function identifiers which has been specified by the manipulation is assigned to one of the functions not built into the information processing device, the specified one of the information identifiers or an information item indicating one of the functions to which is assigned one of the information identifiers which has been specified by the manipulation, to a predetermined device.

Abstract: The controlling apparatus is provided with: a memory that stores application software; a setting part that sets an operational manner related to power consumption of an apparatus running the application software, corresponding to the application software stored in the memory; and a controller that controls the power consumption of the apparatus according to the operational manner set by the setting part.

Abstract: There is provided a data change device that includes a storage unit that stores a manipulation explanation data set and a result explanation data set related to each other, the manipulation explanation data set including at least an instruction acceptance image indicating an instruction acceptance unit for accepting an instruction to the data change device or an external device and a manipulation explanation image for explaining a manipulation of the instruction acceptance unit, and the result explanation data set indicating a phenomenon that results from a manipulation indicated by the manipulation explanation data set, a change acceptance unit that accepts a change to be made to the instruction acceptance unit, and a manipulation explanation data change unit that changes the manipulation explanation data set in accordance with the change if the change is accepted by the change acceptance unit.

Abstract: An apparatus for language translation is arranged such that phrases having identical meanings in different languages are stored by category. Following inputs of a phrase, a user selects a language by a language selecting button, observes a translation of the input phrase and selects a response phrase by up/down, left/right scroll buttons. On the basis of this selection, the selected response phrase in the particular language is read out from a storage device, is displayed on a display, and an address number of this phrase is transmitted to a remote plate by making use of a telephone line or the like. A receiver in the remote place outputs a received phrase in a particular language from its storage device on the basis of the received phrase number and the designation of the particular language.
