Abstract: A video processing device includes a video obtaining unit configured to obtain video data by capturing video of a specific area, a video accumulating unit configured to accumulate the video data obtained by the video obtaining unit, a data input unit configured to input event occurrence data indicating an event that has occurred in a video image corresponding to the video data obtained by the video obtaining unit and object specifying data for specifying an object relating to the event, and an addition processing unit configured to add the event occurrence data and object specifying data input by the data input unit to the video data accumulated in the video accumulating unit using a predetermined format through provision of link data for linking the video data to the event occurrence data and the object specifying data.

Abstract: A video processing device includes a video accumulating unit configured to accumulate video data obtained by capturing video of a specific area, event occurrence data indicating an event that has occurred in a video image corresponding to the video data, and object specifying data for specifying an object relating to the event, a video processing unit configured to apply a predetermined effect to the video data accumulated in the video accumulating unit in accordance with the event occurrence data and the object specifying data that are added to the video data accumulated in the video accumulating unit to produce a modified video image, and a video output unit configured to output the modified video image to which the effect has been applied by the video processing unit.

Abstract: A file system that is organized in an operating system to manage a file to be recorded in a recording device in compliance with a file access request from an application. The file system includes a first recording section recording in a recording device a file that includes a management information section and a data section. A second recording section, which, when the first recording section records the file that includes the management information section and the data section, adds, as needed, an extended management information section that records information other than the management information section about the data section.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a video monitoring system including: a camera connected to a network; a recorder configured to record, via the network, a video image captured by the camera; a displayer configured to display a video image captured by the camera; and a controller configured to execute control such that at least one of a current video image captured by the camera and a past video image recorded to the recorder onto be displayed on the displayer. In the monitoring system, if displaying of a past video image is specified with a current video image displayed in a window on the displayer, the controller executes control such that, while maintaining a display status of the window, the specified past video image be displayed in the window.

Abstract: A video monitoring system includes a camera connected to a network; a recording unit recording, via the network, video images captured by the camera; a display unit displaying video images captured by the camera; a control unit controlling display of video images on the display means; and a joystick controller changing the operation of a joystick according to a control mode selected by the control unit. The joystick controller performs control such that when the joystick controller is controlled in a camera control mode by the control unit, a video capturing operation of the camera is controllable with the joystick, and when the joystick controller is controlled in a function setting mode by the control unit, the operation of a pointer displayed on the display unit or selecting operation for selecting a list item is controllable with the joystick.

Abstract: A hierarchical storage management apparatus manages data access to a plurality of hierarchical storage devices that have different performances. The hierarchical storage management apparatus includes the following elements: an access history recorder that records an access history of a data file stored in one of the plurality of hierarchical storage devices, the access history being recorded when the data file is accessed and including information about a hierarchical level in which the accessed data file is stored; and an image data generator that generates image data that shows an access status using information about one or more specified arbitrary hierarchical levels, each piece of the information being extracted from the access history.

Abstract: When the size of a file which has been read out from a magnetic disc unit less than a predetermined value, a CPU the file onto a magnetic tape of a magnetic tape unit as an archive file of a standard form to which attribute information where its size is represented by octal numeral is added. On the other hand, when the size of the file is the predetermined value or more, the CPU records such a file onto the magnetic tape as an archive file of an expanded form to which attribute information where the size of the file is represented by hexadecimal numeral and including identification symbol indicating hexadecimal representation is added. Where the attribute information of the recorded archive file does not include identification symbol, the archive file is reproduced as a standard form. Where the attribute information includes identification symbol, the archive file is reproduced as an expanded form.

Abstract: When the size of a file which has been read out from a magnetic disc unit (5) is less than a predetermined value, a CPU (3) records file onto a magnetic tape of a magnetic tape unit (6) as an archive file of a standard form to which attribute information where its size is represented by octal numeral is added. On the other hand, when the size of the file is the predetermined value or more, the CPU (3) records such a file onto the magnetic tape as an archive file of an expanded form to which attribute information where the size of the file is represented by hexadecimal numeral and including identification symbol indicating hexadecimal representation is added. Further, in the case where attribute information of the archive file recorded on the magnetic tape does not include identification symbol, the archive file is reproduced as an archive file of a standard form.

Abstract: The invention is equipped with setting means for setting whether files under the same custody structure are preferentially selected, procuring means for procuring information on a day on which the last access was made and information on the file size regarding each one of the respective files stored in the memory means, calculating means for calculating a score regarding each of the respective files according to the number of days that have lapsed from the day of the last access and the file size, and selecting means for selecting a desired file from among the respective files by using the score and the result of the setting performed by the setting means. With this construction, when in the computer of hierarchy storage management type collectively replacing a file within the buffer memory with a file that is newly transferred from the main memory, it is so arranged that a plurality of files under the same directory can be collectively replaced.
