Patent number: 8094725Abstract: A coding section encodes plural pieces of video data sequentially. A measuring section measures a time period which the coding section has used for coding video data. When the time period measured by the measuring section is judged to be longer than a predetermined time based on a frame rate of the video data, a control section selects at least one piece of video data to be coded after the video data coded by the coding section out of the plural pieces of video data and generates a predetermined bit stream instead of coded data of the thus selected video data without allowing the coding section to encode the selected data.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2006Date of Patent: January 10, 2012Assignee: Panasonic CorporationInventors: Yoshihiro Nakahara, Keisuke Yorioka, Manabu Kuroda, Masakazu Kanda

Publication number: 20090083748Abstract: A resource information acquiring unit acquires processor resource information from outside. A program associating unit associates the processor resource information with a program. A processor resource allocating unit allocates processor resources to the program in accordance with the processor resource information when the program is executed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 17, 2008Publication date: March 26, 2009Inventors: Masakazu KANDA, Go MAKINO, Kunihiko HAYASHI, Yoshihiro KOGA

Publication number: 20080101349Abstract: A module execution device includes: a module execution section for executing at least one of a control module and a controlled module generated by execution of the control module; inter-module communication sections of a plurality of types for performing inter-module communication between the control module and the controlled module; and an inter-module communication section selection section for selecting one of the inter-module communication sections which is to be used for the inter-module communication. The module execution device is configured so that at least one of the control module and the controlled module instructs the inter-module communication section selection section to select said one of the inter-module communication sections based on inter-module communication control information given from the outside of the control module or the controlled module.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 20, 2007Publication date: May 1, 2008Inventors: Masakazu Kanda, Masaaki Tsujino, Kunihiko Hayashi

Patent number: 7269900Abstract: A production organizing method and a method and apparatus for assembling vehicle body are provided. The production line organizing method comprises the steps of classifying all parts for all types of vehicles to be assembled into groups of main part, synchronous subparts, and non-synchronous subparts, and the manhour for the non-synchronous subparts are assigned to the difference in manhours for assembly of main parts and synchronous subparts. In addition, a vehicle body assembly method and a vehicle body assembly line are also provided, which are capable of reducing a length of a main line and increasing the productivity by classifying all of the parts used for all vehicle types into three groups of main parts and two groups of subparts including non-synchronous main parts and subparts, and by assembling and storing the non-synchronous main parts and subparts in the separate section and supplying the sub-assembled non-synchronous subparts to the main line when necessary.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2005Date of Patent: September 18, 2007Assignee: Honda Giken Kogyo Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Fumio Moriya, Takehiro Kouno, Kiyoshi Ikumi, Hiroshi Miyashita, Haruji Yoshida, Tatsuaki Son, Kouichi Hosono, Masakazu Kanda, Gengo Kajima, Tomoyoshi Takeuchi, Masanori Yoshida, Jyun Toyoda, Kenji Tatsuda, Yasuo Miyaoka, Michinao Iwami, Ikuo Kanazawa

Publication number: 20060245735Abstract: Provided are an image recording device having an image quality checking function of previously checking a quality of the image to be replayed when the image is recorded in a recording mode having been set, the image recording device being capable of preventing a circuit size from increasing when the image quality checking function is additionally provided, and capable of preventing power consumption from increasing when the image quality checking function is being performed, and a method for driving the image recording device. When an image quality checking mode starting key of a user interface 3 is operated, a control section 4 causes at least a portion of a data compression unit 51 and a local decoder, which are provided in an encoder 5, to be in driven states. Furthermore, a retrieve/display control section 7 retrieves an image stored in a frame memory 27 and displays the retrieved image.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2006Publication date: November 2, 2006Inventors: Masakazu Kanda, Manabu Kuroda, Kengo Nishimura, Kunihiko Hayashi
