Abstract: A wireless communication system includes relay communication devices including a target device; and a communication device. Each relay communication device includes: a first control unit acquiring, based on a wireless signal including origination information received from each of the target device and another relay communication device, signal intensity information relating to a signal intensity of the wireless signal; and a data adding unit adding the signal intensity information, time information, and its own identification information to the origination information, to update the origination information; and a communication unit broadcasting the updated origination information.

Abstract: When a user instructs non-linear process, controlling means (19) sends a control signal indicating the non-linear process to a clock change instruction means (183) of a display converting means (18). If the clock change instruction means (183) receives the control signal, the means (183) sends an instruction for a variable clock to clock generating means (185) and difference calculating means (184). The clock generating means (185) generates a variable clock in response to the instruction of the clock change instruction means (183) and outputs it to A/D converter (11). The clock generating means (185) generates a constant frequency clock and outputs it to a data smoothing means (12).

Abstract: Permanent recording is prohibited when copy control information with never copy information is added to an audio-visual signal (SAVin) inputted to a processor (10), so that temporary recording is made possible in more situations. A data recording/reproducing device of this invention is provided with a means for determining whether or not the video data is to be recorded with changing from a permanent recording mode to a temporary recording mode, without recording being performed in the permanent recording mode, when never copy information and information of the permanent recording mode are received as additional information. The data recording/reproducing device is further provided with a means for instructing to record the video data on a recording portion (15) in the temporary recording mode when it is determined by the determining means to record the video data with changing to the temporary recording mode.

Abstract: It is an object of the invention to provide a data processing device, a data processing method and a data processing program which can provide consistency between information of a macrovision signal and CGMS data added to an analogue video signal. A data processing device (10) receiving and analogue video signal (Sv?in#191) to which CGMS data and a macrovision signal are added is provided with a controller (33) having a determination means (33A), a rewrite means (33B) and a control means (33C). The CGMS data and the information of the macrovision signal are inputted from a CGMS decoder (31) and a macrovision detector (32), respectively, to the determination means (33A). In the determination means (33A), it is determined whether the information of the macrovision signal and the CGMS data conflict each other or not. When they conflict, the CGMS data is rewritten in the rewrite means (33B), after of which it is determined whether there is a conflict between them in the determination means (33A).

Abstract: To perform the time shift reproducing while causing the contents-provider's intention of “copy prohibition” to be reflected when the copy prohibiting information is added to an analog AV signal inputted to a processor. A processor (10) receiving analog video signal (Sv?in#191) to which copy control information is added is provided with a controller (33) having means for instructing to start storing data in a storage (15) when copy control information with copy prohibiting information is received and means for instructing to start reproducing the video data stored in the storage (15) before end of storing. The storage (15) has means for erasing from the storage (15) a reproduced portion of the video data in the storage immediately after reproduction and means for erasing the video data in the storage when reproduction has not been started before the end of storing or when reproducing the video data is not being performed at the time of the end of storing.

Abstract: To display a plurality of pictures with proper quality corresponding to a display size in the case of displaying a plurality of pictures on a screen. Resource assigning section 18 assigns a resource of decoding processing, such as inverse DCT processing or movement compensation/interframe predictive decoding processing, per a picture on the basis of display size information. Inverse DCT section 12, 13 performs the inverse DCT processing using DCT coefficient with resource assigned in the resource assigning section 18 to obtain predicted error. Movement compensation/interframe predictive decoding section 14, 15 performs the movement compensation/interframe predictive decoding processing using a motion vector and the predicted error to obtain the decoded picture. Scaling section 16, 17 performs the scaling processing to the decoded picture on the basis of the display size information.

Abstract: The present invention provides a laminated material for cups good for both hot and cold drinks comprising a base material and a resin layer laminated thereon, wherein the melting point of the aforementioned resin layer is not less than 95.degree. C. when measured by DSC, the difference .DELTA..theta. between the advancing contact angle (.theta.a) and the receding contact angle (.theta.r) for water is not more than 20.degree., and the resin layer has a heat sealability. According to the present invention, a laminated material for cups good for both hot and cold drinks can be provided, these cups being also excellent in bubble-arresting property and sliding property as well as vending property.
