  • Patent number: 7460630
    Abstract: A data transmitter and a data receiver generate respective synchronous signals from a common reference signal. The data receiver adjusts a phase of a first clock signal using each one of one-bit data signals each consisting of a single bit of received parallel data, so that a setup time and a hold time are ensured for the each one-bit data signal, and loads each one-bit data signal into a data buffer in accordance with the adjusted clock signal. Then, the data receiver reads the data held in the data buffer, in accordance with a second clock signal and in synchronization with the receiver synchronous signal. A memory position where the data signal is to be loaded is initialized when a training pattern transmitted in synchronization with the transmitter synchronous signal is detected.

  • Publication number: 20080222301
    Abstract: Stream data is transmitted from a distribution server to a client without any loss of data. The capacity of a reception buffer to be prepared at the client can be made small and the network bandwidth necessary for data redistribution can be narrowed. A relay server interposed between the distribution server and client buffers stream data in an auxiliary storage device. When the relay server or client detects a loss of stream data, a redistribution request is transmitted to the distribution server or another relay server at the preceding stage.
