  • Publication number: 20150082299
    Abstract: A system of this invention is directed to an information processing system that allows a client to enjoy the execution result of a program acquired or to be acquired by the client, even if the program cannot be installed or executed in a client apparatus. In the information processing system, a first information processing apparatus and a second information processing apparatus are connected via communication media. It is requested, from the first information processing apparatus to the second information processing apparatus, to install a program acquired but inexecutable by the first information processing apparatus into the second information processing apparatus. Execution of the program installed in the second information processing apparatus in response to the request is synchronized with an operation for the program in the first information processing apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20150065111
    Abstract: An apparatus of this invention is directed to an information processing apparatus that selects an appropriate combination of a device connected to a mobile terminal and a program used in the information processing apparatus to operate the device via a network and the mobile terminal, based on a history of the combination. The information processing apparatus accumulates the history of the combination of the device connected via the network and the mobile terminal, and the program used in the information processing apparatus to operate the device. When receiving information about the device connected to the mobile terminal from the mobile terminal via the network, the information processing apparatus selects the combination of the device and the program based on the history of the combination of the device and the program accumulated in an accumulator.

  • Publication number: 20150056978
    Abstract: When an input device is connected via a communication interface, a mobile phone determines whether a local device can control the input device. When it is determined that the local device cannot control the input device, the mobile phone requests a server connected via a wireless communication network to control the input device. The mobile phone controls signal transfer between the input device and the server via the communication interface and the wireless communication network so that the server can control the input device by establishing communication between the input device and the server. In response to the request from the mobile phone, the server controls the input device via the established communication with the input device.

  • Patent number: 8630282
    Abstract: Voice data from speech start till mute are transmitted as a section voice file to the opposite side voice data transmitting and receiving system, thus permitting voice data transmission free from voice interruption. By transmitting voice data from the speech start till the mute it is possible to eliminate packet losses in the data transmission channel and perform voice communication in the same voice quality as in the transmitting side. Besides, because of the use of HTTP communication port it is possible to obtain voice communication exceeding the rooter without any special setting.

  • Patent number: 8524576
    Abstract: In a wafer processing method, the back side of a wafer having a plurality of devices on the front side thereof is ground, thereby reducing the thickness of the wafer to a predetermined thickness. The back side of the wafer is polished after performing the back grinding step, thereby removing a grinding strain, and a silicon nitride film is formed on the back side of the wafer. The thickness of the silicon nitride film to be formed in the silicon nitride film forming step is set to 6 to 100 nm. Thus, the silicon nitride film having a thickness of 6 to 100 nm is formed on the polished back side of the wafer from which a grinding strain has been removed. Accordingly, each device constituting the wafer can ensure a sufficient die strength and a sufficient gettering effect.

  • Patent number: 8461020
    Abstract: In a device processing method, a laser beam is applied to a wafer along division lines from the back side of the wafer, thereby forming a division start point inside the wafer along the division lines at a depth not reaching the finished thickness of each device. A protective member is attached to the front side of the wafer before or after performing the division start points are formed. An external force is applied through the protective member to the wafer, thereby dividing the wafer along the division lines to obtain the individual devices. The back side of the wafer is ground to remove the modified layers, and a silicon nitride film is formed on at least the side surface of each device. The silicon nitride film has a gettering effect and is formed on the side surface of each device, which surface is formed by a cleavage plane.

  • Patent number: 8337756
    Abstract: For manufacture of solid fuels by solidifying processing-object materials containing plastics, waste paper and waste wood, the processing-object materials inputted through an input port 12 are subjected to water injection so that their water content becomes 15 wt % or more, preferably 20 wt % or more, and then kneaded, compacted and extruded in three turns or less, being extruded from molding nozzles 53 of an end face plate 5. The water injection is performed by a water injection nozzle 31 from the input port 12 into a casing 11. Opening and closing of a solenoid valve 33 interposed on a water injection pipe 32 adjoining the water injection nozzle 31 is controlled based on a signal S1 derived from a temperature sensor 55 provided at a molding nozzle 53 of the end face plate.

  • Publication number: 20120275324
    Abstract: This invention provides a simultaneous packet transmission system and a simultaneous packet reception system which enable a reception side to receive simultaneous packets without transmitting a retransmission request to retransmit discarded simultaneous packets even if part of simultaneous packets are discarded. A wireless LAN base station multicasts a simultaneous packet which is obtained by allocating a sequence number to a LAN packet a plurality of times. If a wireless LAN terminal receives the same simultaneous packets a plurality of times, the wireless LAN terminal discards duplicated simultaneous packets and leaves only one simultaneous packet. Since the simultaneous packet is multicast a plurality of times, the wireless LAN terminal can receive the simultaneous packet as long as all the same simultaneous packets are not lost.

  • Patent number: 8234364
    Abstract: In an internet connection system for connecting a terminal in each of a plurality of predetermined locations to internet accessed by the terminal, each location, in which a terminal in communication is provided, is discriminated. The used communication band is recorded for each location, and a communication fee is determined based on the used communication band recorded for each location. The communication extent of the access line connected via the gateway is compared for each location, and the terminal is connected to internet via the gateway, to which a less communication extent access line is connected.
