Abstract: A communication apparatus includes a communication start request receiving unit and a response notification output unit. The communication start request receiving unit receives, via a first communication path, a communication start request that is output from a source communication apparatus and is transmitted via a relay apparatus. The response notification output unit outputs a first response notification or a second response notification to the relay apparatus via the first communication path when the communication start request receiving unit receives, via the first communication path, a communication start request for starting communication using a second communication standard in a case where the number of apparatuses with which the communication apparatus is communicating using the second communication standard has reached a predetermined number. The first response notification indicates that communication is being performed.

Abstract: A communicating apparatus includes a first acquire unit that acquires a first usage bandwidth to be a usage bandwidth of the communicating apparatus; a negotiation unit that negotiates by utilizing information corresponding to the first usage bandwidth in relation to a transmission speed in an execution of a communication with another communicating apparatus connected to the communicating apparatus through a network; a second acquire unit that acquires a second usage bandwidth as a negotiation result obtained by the negotiation unit; and a communicating unit that transmits data to the another communicating apparatus at a lower transmission speed than a transmission speed based on the first usage bandwidth corresponding to information about the second usage bandwidth.

Abstract: An image communicating apparatus includes a packet control portion that transmits/receives an IFP packet by a T.38 communicating function, and an image communicating control portion. The packet control portion includes a counting unit that counts a total number of received packets and a number of loss packets in the IFP packet. The image communicating control portion includes a calculating unit that calculates a loss ratio of the IFP packet from a rate of the number of loss packets to the total number of received packets which is counted by the counting unit in a receipt of a post message; and a response signal returning unit that returns a retraining negative signal to an apparatus on a transmitting side for the image information in response to the post message, and returns a message confirming signal to the apparatus on the transmitting side in response to the post message.

Abstract: An image communicating apparatus includes: a communicating control unit that controls an internet facsimile communication for transmitting/receiving control information and a packet containing image information based on a T.38 protocol; a loss detecting unit that detects a loss of the packet transmitted from a transmitting side in a stage for receiving the image information through the packet based on the T.38 protocol; a complementing information holding unit that holds complementing information for complementing the image information contained in the lost packet; and a complementation processing unit that complements the image information contained in the lost packet with the complementing information held by the complementing information holding unit if the loss of the packet is detected by the loss detecting unit.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a receiving unit that receives, from an external device via a communication line, a signal requesting provision of various types of services; a processing unit that when the receiving unit receives the signal in a setting period of a power saving state where power consumption is lower than in a running state, returns to the running state to process the signal and provide a service corresponding to the signal; and a memory that stores a content of the service provided by the processing unit and a content of a request requested by the signal, the content of the service and the content of the request being correlated respectively, wherein when the request received by the receiving unit in the setting period of the power saving state matches the content of the request stored in the memory, the processing unit reads the content of the service correlated with the content of the request from the memory and provides the service corresponding to the content of the service t

Abstract: The information processing system includes: an information processor operating in an active state and a power saving state consuming less power than the active state, and recovering to the active state by receiving a signal in the power saving state and processing information in the signal; a signal transmitting device transmitting a signal to the information processor; and a communication line establishing communication between the information processor and the signal transmitting device. The signal transmitting device transmits the signal after appending, to a predetermined region inside the signal, the identification information for identifying a processing content of the signal.

Abstract: An information processing device includes a communication unit that communicates with a designated information processing device, and a controller that, when the communication unit attempts communication with the designated information processing device and the attempt fails, controls the communication unit so as to attempt communication with the designated information processing device by using identifying (ID) information on a transmission source used when a communication attempt with the designated information processing device has succeeded.
