  • Publication number: 20090085930
    Abstract: A writing control system includes a display holding medium, a reading unit, an identifying unit, a control unit and a writing unit. The display holding medium includes a display section capable of displaying and holding an image in a no-power state and a storage section having a storage area for storing information that identifies an electronic document associated with it. The reading unit reads the information from the storage section when the display holding medium is located in a predetermined position. The identifying unit identifies the electronic document associated with the display holding medium, based on the information read from the display holding medium. When the electronic document associated with the display holding medium is not identified, the control unit performs control so that a page image, which has not been written, of an electronic document, which is used in last image writing, is set as a writing target.

  • Publication number: 20090083329
    Abstract: A content management system includes a conversion a section, a display data storing section, a field section, an operation section and a management section. The conversion section converts content data into display data which is to be written into an electronic paper. The display data storing section stores the display data. The field storing section stores field data which includes identification information of a first user belonging to a field and identification information of the display data. The operation section accepts a request from a second user. The management section that allows, when the identification information of the first user contained in the field data coincides with identification information of the second user contained in the request accepted by the operation section, the display data indicated by the identification information contained in the field data to be written into the electronic paper.
