Publication number: 20070180395Abstract: A display screen management unit is provided which can reduce a screen resource required to switch screens and simultaneously display a pre-transition screen and a post-transition screen. When instructed to switch screens, a screen control section (103) requests a screen discard determination section (105) to determine whether or not a currently displayed screen is discarded. The screen discard determination section (105) compares currently displayed screen information with switching target screen information, and when the currently displayed screen is completely hidden by the switching target screen, determines that the currently displayed screen is discarded. The screen control section (103) discards a screen resource for the screen determined to be discarded, from a screen resource saving section (107). The screen control section (103) generates a screen resource for the switching target screen, and saves the screen resource into the screen resource saving section (107).Type: ApplicationFiled: March 29, 2005Publication date: August 2, 2007Applicant: Matsushita Elecctric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ken Yamashita, Hidehiko Shin

Patent number: 6980213Abstract: In a mobile communication terminal device that obtains data including text or an image from an external server through a digital network, a display displays display data DD generated based on data in a first storage unit. A plurality of display modes are predetermined in a display mode switching unit. When instructed by a user while the display data is displayed on the display, the display mode switching unit switches the display mode according to a predetermined order. A display data generator generates the display data DD according to the next display mode. The display displays the display data DD generated by the display data generator. It is thus possible to provide a mobile communication terminal device capable of displaying data while switching among a plurality of display modes (character sets or image display forms) through simpler operation.Type: GrantFiled: May 8, 2000Date of Patent: December 27, 2005Assignee: Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd.Inventors: Takako Hirose, Hiromi Wada, Hidehiko Shin, Atsunobu Kato

Publication number: 20020116633Abstract: Command data 111 includes an address of terminal data 112 to be received. A data processor 100 first verifies a signature applied to the received command data 111, and then receives the terminal data 112 specified by the command data 111. Thus received terminal data is used for controlling the data processor 100 such as screen display. At this time, the received data may be segmented into a protected data region and an unprotected data region, and any data type included in the unprotected data region may be listed as an unprotection list. If listed, the unprotection list may be arranged in the protected data region. Alternatively, a signer certificate may indicate, by type, what data is signable by its signer, and at the time of data reception, determination may be made whether the signer has an authorization for signing the data classified under the type.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2002Publication date: August 22, 2002Inventors: Takuya Kobayashi, Satoshi Inami, Masashige Mizuyama, Atsunobu Kato, Hidehiko Shin, Hiromi Wada
