Patent number: 8224467Abstract: An information processing apparatus in which its function can be improved by installing an additional module to an existing module in a module configuration system. A video information processing apparatus 100, which is an existing module, has the function of reading, from a network module 150 as an additional module, software held in the network module 150. The software held in the network module 150 includes control software for the network module and software for making the control software available to the existing video information processing apparatus 100. The software held in the network module 150 is added to the video information processing apparatus 100, and the network module 150 is operated by the video information processing apparatus 100.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2005Date of Patent: July 17, 2012Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Kiyoyasu Maruyama, Kyosuke Yoshimoto, Chihiro Morita, Tokumichi Murakami, Yoshiki Mizutani

Patent number: 7924693Abstract: An optical disk physical has a recording region divided into zones, each zone including physical tracks adjacent to each other. An integer number of sectors are provided in each physical track. The angular recording density is higher in the more outward zones such that the linear recording density is substantially constant throughout the recording region, and logical tracks are formed of a predetermined number of sectors, independent of the physical tracks. The conversion between the logical track and sector addresses read from the disk and the linear logical addresses supplied from a host device is easy. The addresses written in headers of the sectors in the logical track in which data are actually recorded, including substitute sectors used in place of defect sectors, are preferably consecutive to further facilitate the conversion between the logical track and sector addresses read from the disk and the linear logical addresses supplied from the host device.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2006Date of Patent: April 12, 2011Assignee: Mitsubishi Denki Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Kyosuke Yoshimoto, Mahesh C. Rao, Hiroyuki Ohata, Kazuhiko Nakane, Teruo Furukawa, Junichi Kondo, Masafumi Ototake

Patent number: 7599564Abstract: Image feature values Va and Vb are derived from image data, coefficients C and D are determined based on the image feature values Va and Vb, and an approximate expression expressed with the file size Sfj of the JPEG compression file and the quantization data coefficient value Aqt is derived. Next, by designating the file size of a desired predetermined JPEG compression file based on the approximate expression, the quantization data coefficient value Aqt is derived, and a first quantization table as a reference is multiplied by the quantization data coefficient value Aqt, whereby a second quantization table is obtained. Then, using the second quantization table, the image data is actually JPEG-compressed.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2004Date of Patent: October 6, 2009Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Shigeo Ando, Yasuo Maeda, Mitsunobu Yoshinaga, Kanae Ikeda, Satoshi Minami, Kyosuke Yoshimoto, Aki Kimura
