  • Patent number: 7761510
    Abstract: A conference system includes a terminal that displays a document presented by a presenter in a conference and that is capable of receiving writing inputs from a participant for enabling exchange of opinions, and a document storage unit that stores the document used in the conference and the written information. The document storage unit stores image data of respective pages of the document, shared overwrite data for each page including shared written information written by the presenter or participants, and personal overwrite data for each participant provided for each page and including personal memo information written by the participant. The terminal includes a read unit that selectively reads out from the document storage unit, concerning each page, the image data of the presented document, the shared overwrite data, and a participant's personal overwrite data, and a display controller that overlaps the read-out data and displays the overlapped data on a display.

  • Patent number: 7360163
    Abstract: When a user or a portable device enters work space, the user or the portable device entering the work space is detected by reading of an ID tag, and a connection interface public server for managing connection interfaces of computational resources which these user and portable device have and a coordination server for performing coupling processing are notified. The coordination server acquires the connection interfaces corresponding to the computational resources of the entering user or the portable device from the public server and couples these and thereby, it is constructed so that linkage between the computational resources shareable in the work space can be performed to make use.

  • Patent number: 7140947
    Abstract: Barrel polishing is effected while causing a mass (M) consisting of work and media (polishing material) to rotation-flow by rotating a rotary disk installed in the bottom of a polishing tank by a drive motor. A load on the drive motor for the rotary disk is preset as by a load current value, and the flow of the mass (M) in the polishing tank is controlled, thereby effecting polishing while maintaining the load on the drive motor within the preset range.
