  • Patent number: 8261111
    Abstract: There is provided a terminal automatically executing access processing to a URL registered in advance on a network in response to the cancellation operation of the power saving mode. This enables to execute accessing the predetermined URL on the network only by the cancellation operation of the power saving mode without need of an extra operation for the processing. Also, in a terminal having a folding mechanism, predetermined processing is automatically executed in response to the open motion from the closed condition. This enables to execute the predetermined processing only by the open motion without need of an extra operation for the processing. Thus operability of the terminal is improve, and as a result, convenience for the user is improved.

  • Publication number: 20100141588
    Abstract: In a portable electronic apparatus, a second keyboard to be manipulated with a right hand is joined to a first keyboard unit including a first keyboard to be manipulated with a left hand so that the second keyboard can be turned down. A display unit having a built-in liquid crystal display is joined to the first keyboard unit so that the display unit can be tuned down. When the display unit is turned down, the display unit engages with the second keyboard unit that is turned down. When all the parts of the electronic apparatus are closed, the electronic apparatus serves as a CD player of a CD jacket size. When the display unit is opened, the electronic apparatus has not only the capability of a DVD player but also the capability of a simple personal computer. When all the parts are left open, the electronic apparatus serves as a personal computer having a full keyboard.

  • Patent number: 7478050
    Abstract: A system manages resources among groups of workers that are connected to one another through a network. The system maintains the security of the resources and improves the operations of the groups. Each group manages the rights to use resources such as windows, objects, and data belonging to the group. Each group is allowed to use only resources whose rights to use are allocated to the group. The groups may exchange the resources among them through a job monitor (2). The job monitor automatically handles the rights to use the resources among the groups according to the working conditions of the groups, procedures, and a job definition form (11). The groups independently and cooperatively carry out jobs. The system employs telephones and pagers to access the members of the groups if they are absent from predetermined locations, to improve the operations of each group.

  • Patent number: 7293268
    Abstract: Without letting a user execute a cumbersome judgment of a version, an application program of the most suitable version is installed for data file automatically, thus an automatic activation of the application becomes possible. Firstly, a document file of a readout target is analyzed, a feature point as reserved word of macro instruction is extracted, and a version of an application suited for the document file is distinguished by an extracted feature point. Secondly, it is judged whether an application program of the version distinguished mentioned above is installed already. When found not being installed based on this judgment result, an application program of the version is newly installed.
