Abstract: In one example embodiment, a microscope control device a controller configured to store a plurality of images having different depth positions. In one example embodiment, the microscope control device divides the plurality of images into a plurality of sub-regions. In one example embodiment, the microscope control device, for each sub-region, generates in-focus position information which corresponds to a depth position.

Abstract: There is provided a PC including a guest OS group which manages a group including an OS executed in an office, an information-management section which manages communication capability information which is set to communication-capable information or communication-incapable information, a being-inside-office determination processing section which determines whether or not the PC is used in the office, which sets the communication capability information to the communication-capable information when the being-inside-office determination processing section determines that the PC is used in the office, and which sets the communication capability information to the communication-incapable information when the being-inside-office determination processing section determines that the PC is not used in the office, and a communication control section which controls communication with another device performed by an OS execution section which executes the OS included in the group based on the communication capability infor

Abstract: A communication processing apparatus that acts as a server for transmitting data to a client includes a data transceiver configured to carry out communications with the client; a rate controller configured to control a bitrate of data transmitted to the client; and a data processor configured to prepare data to transmit in accordance with the bitrate. The rate controller includes a throughput calculator configured to extract an effective data transmission and reception period not including an ineffective data transmission and reception period in a period during which a communication connection is maintained between the server and the client, and to calculate a maximum throughput on the basis of the length of the effective data transmission and reception period and the amount of data transmitted; and a bitrate setter configured to set a bitrate within a range of up to a maximum allowable bitrate corresponding to the maximum throughput calculated by the throughput calculator.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a content distribution system including: a content distribution server; a sender terminal; and a receiver terminal; wherein the content distribution server including a communication block; a recording block; a content management block; a content encryption block; and a key management block; wherein the sender terminal including a communication block; a terminal detection block; a recording block; and an extraction block; wherein the receiver terminal including a terminal detection block; a recording block; a decryption block; and a content reproduction block; wherein, if the sender terminal is located inside a communicable range in which data can be transmitted and received with the receiver terminal, the sender terminal distributes the content and the receiver terminal, if located inside the communicable range, reproduces the decrypted content.

Abstract: A communication system includes a server that receives broadcast data and outputs the received data to a network-connected client and a client that performs reproduction or recording of the data received from the server. The server includes a broadcast receiving unit that receives the broadcast data and a server-record-scheduling-information managing unit that creates a record scheduling list. The client includes a client-record-scheduling-information managing unit that acquires the record scheduling list from the server and a record processing unit that executes an acquisition request for record-scheduled contents.

Abstract: An information processing unit includes an application data receiving buffer to temporarily store data transmitted from a client device for initiating a connection, an application data receiving section to acquire the data transmitted from the client device from the application data receiving buffer and transmit the data to an upper layer application, and a flow control reception management section to transfer the data transmitted from the client device to the application data receiving buffer and monitor a free space in the application data receiving buffer and supply a data size receivable by the application data receiving buffer to the client device.

Abstract: A receiving apparatus of the present invention includes: a relayed dummy data receiving unit for receiving relayed dummy data including dummy data of n bytes (n?1) and/or dummy data of N bytes (N?n) sequentially and repetitively transmitted from a transmitting apparatus to a relay server from the relay server; and a buffer setting detecting unit for detecting a buffer setting of the relay server based on a first size value indicative of data size of relayed dummy data received for the first time by the relayed dummy data receiving unit and a second size value indicative of not larger data size of relayed dummy data received for the second time and relayed dummy data received for the third time.
