Abstract: A first icon displayed on a display is selected, and is specified by a source object specification section as a source object. Next, the first icon is dragged to the vicinity of a second icon (folder), so that the second icon is selected. Then, the first icon is dragged to the vicinity of third and fourth icons (folders) with a “Shift” key on a keyboard of an input device pressed, so that the third and fourth icons are selected. Next, the selected second to fourth icons are specified as target objects. The source object (file) is then copied to each of the target objects (folders).

Abstract: In a mobile communication system comprising a PBX connected to a mobile communication network through an interface unit and having a semi-public roaming function, a first PBX is connected to a second PBX having the semi-public roaming function with a leased circuit. The first PBX transmits a position registration/call transmission request of a PHS received by itself to a mobile communication network through the second PBX. The second PBX transmits a call reception request addressed to the PHS from the mobile communication network to the PHS through the first PBX.

Abstract: A temporarily saved band value management table for managing temporarily saved band value is provided, as is a band management table for managing empty band value in the storage device of an ATM exchange comprising a storage device, a control device, and the like. The control device selects a corresponding empty band value for a temporarily saved band value when a first camp-on request is received from a terminal, and sets the empty band value to “0.” In addition, the control device adds to the temporarily saved band value a band value released by a break in communication when a camp-on request is registered, and grants permission for communication to the terminal that has issued this camp-on request when the temporarily saved band value is higher than the band value required by a registered camp-on request. The control device determines whether or not a connection request can be accepted on the basis of the empty band value stored in the band management table.

Abstract: Disclosed is an ATM exchange for granting permission to a camp-on request in a short time.A temporarily saved band value management table for managing temporarily saved band value is provided, as is a band management table for managing empty band value in the storage device of an ATM exchange comprising a storage device, a control device, and the like. The control device selects a corresponding empty band value for a temporarily saved band value when a first camp-on request is received from a terminal, and sets the empty band value to "0." In addition, the control device adds to the temporarily saved band value a band value released by a break in communication when a camp-on request is registered, and grants permission for communication to the terminal that has issued this camp-on request when the temporarily saved band value is higher than the band value required by a registered camp-on request.
