  • Patent number: 7880752
    Abstract: A plurality of image data attached to electronic mail data is stored in a memory. A control unit identifies an image having the largest width, from among images drawn by each image data. The control unit then computes a contraction scale to be used for fitting the largest image to a display area of its own display unit, and applies the contraction process to data of each of image stored in memory using the computed contraction scale. Thus contracted image data are then displayed on the display unit.

  • Publication number: 20080275965
    Abstract: During recovery from a state where a continuous download is impossible, if the mobile communication terminal issues a request for a continuous data download, to the server (S1), function information that indicates whether the server is available for the continuous data download is sent back (S2). In cases where it is not possible to clearly judge that the server is not available for the continuous data download based on the function information (negated in S3), the TCP session between the mobile communication terminal and server is disconnected (S4) and the mobile communication terminal re-requests the download of continuous data from the server (S5). If a predetermined code that corresponds with the function of the server is sent back in response to the request (S6), the mobile communication terminal controls whether to continue or suspend the continuous data download in accordance with the code (S7 to S9).

  • Publication number: 20080065744
    Abstract: If the mobile communication terminal issues a request to resume the download, to the server, in the event of recovery from inability to continuously download during a download (S4), the server transmits an ADF that includes the latest update information for the data at a point in time to the mobile communication terminal in response to the resumption request on the basis of a predetermined procedure (S5). The mobile communication terminal judges whether the target data have been updated by comparing the latest update information in the received ADF and the latest update information of the received data (S6). In cases where the target data have not been updated, the mobile communication terminal issues a request to download only incomplete parts of target data, to the server (S7) and, in cases where the target data have been updated, the mobile communication terminal issues a request to perform a download from the start of the target data at a point in time, to the server (S9).
