Abstract: A computer-readable recording medium on which a program is recorded for causing a computer to execute a data management method includes the steps of obtaining document identification data used for identifying a target document, obtaining page identification data used for identifying a page of the target document, obtaining document use data indicating a display time and a display location in which the page of the target document has been displayed, obtaining recording data indicating a recording time and a recording location in which AV (Audio Visual) data has been recorded in a case where the recording location is within a predetermined range from the display location, identifying a portion of the AV data corresponding to the display time of the page of the target document, and outputting access data that provides access to the portion of the AV data.

Abstract: An information editing device includes an index generating unit that generates, in a plurality of different formats, a plurality of pieces of index information indicative of a list of the pieces of screen image information each for one scene; and a display controlling unit that switches the pieces of index information generated by the index generating unit based on an input instruction of a user.

Abstract: A contents management apparatus that manages contents including a plurality of contents elements representing information to be provided to a user includes a contents request acquiring unit that acquires contents request information from the user, a contents element extracting unit that extracts the contents elements based on the contents request information when the contents request acquiring unit acquires the contents request information from the user, and a contents restructuring unit that restructures new contents from the contents elements extracted.

Abstract: The video index information has a tree structure comprising frame information, sound information, segment information, and package information each as a structure element object. The segment information manages package information for managing a plurality of other segment information as a group, and in the tree structure, the package information is allocated in addition to the frame information and sound information under one segment information, and the video information is managed by using the tree structure of the video index information and structure element objects therein.

Abstract: A content reproducing apparatus includes an HDD that stores therein content file data that includes plural screen image data at a scene that changes over time and plural moving image data shot at a scene corresponding to the screen image data. Moreover, a display controller reproduces a content file and displays the plural screen image data and the plural moving image data on a display device in turn over time scene by scene and displays, during reproducing the content file, a page for printing in which a list of contracted images of the plural screen image data are arranged in a layout format when printing on the display device.

Abstract: An external storage medium storing a computer readable access control program and a plurality of files. The access control program performs a first accessing process permitting a computer to access only the access control program when the computer attempts to access any of the files. A file view process is performed so as to display a view of the files when the computer accesses the information via the access control program. A second accessing process is performed when the computer accesses the information via the access control program while a user designates a prescribed file from the file view. The access control program stores information related to accessing executed by the second accessing process in the storage medium as access usage information.
