  • Patent number: 9032396
    Abstract: A server apparatus, a terminal apparatus and an application control system are provided. An application managing unit (11) determines an application to be transmitted to a terminal (20) on the basis of execution capability information and terminal state information received from the terminal (20). An application transmitting unit (12) transmits the determined application and a priority record of each application to the terminal (20) through a server transmitting unit (18). An installing unit (28) installs the received application. An application executing unit (29) controls execution of the application on the basis of execution priority represented by the received priority record and controls an output of image information generated by the application on the basis of display priority represented by the received priority record.

  • Publication number: 20130326601
    Abstract: A content distribution server receives from an information processing device, a first password generated from first data indicating a key and server specific information specific to the server with the use of a predetermined function. Then, the received first password and processing designation information designating processing are transmitted to a terminal. The terminal generates a second password from second data indicating a key matching with the key indicated by the first data and the server specific information obtained from the information processing device, with the use of the function. Then, the first password from the server and the generated second password are checked against each other, and whether or not to perform processing designated by the processing designation information from the server is determined based on a result of checking.

  • Patent number: 5790358
    Abstract: When a trouble occurs in a cable, a feeding pass for another cable is ensured. In a feeding pass switching circuit, optical fibers are respectively connected to the terminals A, B and C. When a negative current is applied to the system in a state where a BRANCH2 is put in an open circuit and a TRUNK is grounded, a relay K1 is activated, and then a relay K2 is activated. Successively, when a positive current is supplied from the TRUNK, a cable connected to the TRUNK and a BRANCH1 is fed from both terminals. When the positive current is supplied from the BRANCH1 in a state where the TRUNK is put in a open circuit and the BRANCH2 is grounded, a relay K3 is activated. Successively, when the negative current is supplied to the BRANCH2, a relay K5 is activated. In such a manner, the power is fed to each feeding pass from one terminal.
