Patent number: 11477340Abstract: An information processing system is proposed. A manager manages a workflow defined by combining units of processing and generates a job to execute the workflow. A memory provides the manager to store a status of each unit of processing according to the job. Plural processors each executes a corresponding unit of processing. A processing request storage provides the manager to store a unit of processing as an execution request. A processing result storage provides each processor to store a processing result of a corresponding unit of processing after extracting the unit of processing from the processing request storage and executing the unit of processing. At a predetermined timing or when the information processing system is restarted after an occurrence of an error, an output unit outputs information indicating a status of a corresponding unit of processing, based on storage statuses of the processing request storage and the processing result storage.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 2019Date of Patent: October 18, 2022Assignee: FUJIFILM Business Innovation Corp.Inventor: Yumi Sekiguchi

Patent number: 7304756Abstract: A sender device 1 stores, in header information about image information, information indicating that attribute information and image data rearranged in sequence, and produces image information by means of storing attribute information and image data in a predetermined sequence. The thus-produced image information is sent to a receiver device 2 by way of a network line 3. When receipt of image information is initiated, the receiver device 2 refers to the header information, thereby determining presence/absence, in the header information, of information indicating that attribute information and image data are stored in a predetermined sequence. When it has been determined that attribute information and image data are arranged in a predetermined sequence, image data included in the received image information are immediately decompressed, and the thus-decompressed image data are output in the form of a record or display.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2001Date of Patent: December 4, 2007Assignee: Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masayuki Hisatake, Shinichi Saito, Koichi Miyazaki, Kunikazu Ueno, Hideki Baba, Yumi Sekiguchi

Patent number: 6437881Abstract: An image of an original document supplied from a scanner portion or the like is, in an attribute-determining portion, subjected to a process for determining whether each pixel is a character pixel or a picture pixel. Thus, separating information is transmitted to a two-layer separating portion and transmitted to a resolution converting portion as data of a separating information plane. The two-layer separating portion separates the image of the original document into a character information plane and a picture information plane in accordance with separating information. The resolution converting portion has a plurality of resolution converting methods. In accordance with transmission attribute information supplied from outside, a transmission-attribute-information recognizing portion selects a resolution converting method independently for each plane. The resolution converting portion uses the selected resolution converting method to subject each plane to the resolution converting process.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 1998Date of Patent: August 20, 2002Assignee: Fuji Xerox Co., Ltd.Inventors: Hideki Baba, Hiroshi Sekine, Noriyuki Kurabayashi, Yumi Sekiguchi, Mikihiro Mori

Patent number: 5366211Abstract: A fluid-filled elastic mount wherein an elastic body elastically connecting a first and a second support partially defines a fluid chamber filled with a non-compressible fluid. The elastic mount further includes an oscillating plate which partially defines the fluid chamber and which is supported by the second support such that the oscillating plate is displaceable relative to the second support, and an electrostrictive/magnetostrictive element for oscillating the oscillating plate to thereby change a pressure of the fluid in the fluid chamber. The second support has a small-diameter cylindrical portion to which the elastic body is secured, and a large-diameter cylindrical portion in which the oscillating plate having a large surface area is accommodated. The electrostrictive/magnetostrictive element is interposed between the oscillating plate and a support member fixed to the second support.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 1994Date of Patent: November 22, 1994Assignee: Tokai Rubber Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Masaaki Hamada, Yumi Sekiguchi
