  • Publication number: 20120212325
    Abstract: A communication apparatus includes: a data generating unit that generates write data to be sent to any other communication apparatus at an arbitrary timing; a communication unit that repeatedly sends a read request to the other communication apparatus until the write data is generated and, at the same time, repeatedly receives a read response sent from the other communication apparatus in response to the read request; and a data acquisition unit that acquires read data, which is sent along with the read response by the other communication apparatus, when the read data is generated at an arbitrary timing by the other communication apparatus.

  • Patent number: 8135870
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a communication processing unit configured to communicate with an external communication device and a data processing unit configured to communicate with the communication processing unit via a wired data communication path. The data processing unit is configured to interpret address information received from the external communication device. The communication processing unit includes a memory where data transmitted and received between the external communication device and the data processing unit is temporarily stored. The communication processing unit further includes a control unit configured to control data writing in and data reading from the memory, perform an error check process by a code included in a received data from the external communication device, and transmit the address information received from the external communication device to the data processing unit without interpreting the address information.

  • Patent number: 8082374
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a communication processing unit configured to communicate with an external communication device; and a data processing unit configured to communicate with the communication processing unit and carry out data processing. The communication processing unit includes a memory where data transmitted and received between a communication device and the data processing unit is temporarily stored, and a control unit configured to control data writing and data reading. When a command packet received from the communication device is a data reading request, the control unit acquires data from the memory and transmits the data to the communication device. When the command packet received from the communication device is a data writing request, the control unit stores data in the memory, acquires data from the memory in response to the request from the data processing unit, and outputs the data to the data processing unit.

  • Publication number: 20100049977
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic apparatus, an information processing method, and a program that allow a provision server of an application to be capable of easily causing an electronic apparatus having an IC chip to manage data. When a service-issuing command transmitted from a service-issuing terminal 11 is received, in a service-issuing function 21 of an IC card 2, information indicating a service data structure and a program describing a processing sequence that correspond to an identifier transmitted as a command parameter are acquired from a service definition database 23. In the service-issuing function 21, IC-card internal processing is performed, and a service data structure for managing data to be used for receiving the provision of a specific application is prepared in a file system 22. The present invention can be applied to an apparatus having an IC chip.
