  • Patent number: 11943233
    Abstract: An electronic control unit is connected to a network in an in-vehicle network system. The electronic control unit includes a first control circuit and a second control circuit. The first control circuit is connected to the network via the second control circuit. The second control circuit performs a first determination process on a frame to determine conformity of the frame with a first rule. Upon determining that the frame conforms to the first rule, the second control circuit transmits the frame to the first control circuit. The first control circuit performs a second determination process on the frame to determine conformity of the frame with a second rule. The second rule is different from the first rule.

  • Patent number: 10002111
    Abstract: A cellular phone apparatus includes a screen A and a screen B. In a state where an overview of data for a screen with a large amount of information is guide displayed on the screen B (screen for user selection), every time an arbitrary content is selected, the cellular phone apparatus changes the data for the screen with the large amount of information to data for a screen with a small amount of information while arranging and displaying the selected content obtained via a Web server on the screen A. Accordingly, when data for the screen with the large amount of information is changed to data for the screen with the small amount of information in response to an instruction on a user side, a change that reflects the intentions of the user can be easily achieved.
