20080300020WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, SIM CARD, MOBILE COMMUNICATION TERMINAL, AND DATA GUARANTEEING METHOD - The loss of data stored in a secure memory card, such as a SIM card, due to the physical destruction thereof is prevented. A host unit performs card authentication of a memory card, and transmits update data for the memory card by security communication to update data when the result of the authentication is OK. Then, the host unit outputs a request for mirror-updating the card data to a base station server. When an access is permitted, the card data is transmitted to the base station server via the host unit to mirror-update the card data. When the mirror-updating of the card data is completed, the base station server returns a completion confirmation to the host unit, so that a data backup process is completed. By thus causing the base station server to mirror-update the data in the memory card, the loss of the stored data is prevented.12-04-2008

20100228887METHOD OF CONFIGURATION PROCESSING OF PCI DEVICE ON VIRTUALIZATION APPARATUS AND COMPUTER SYSTEM - To simplify the structure and improve the performance of virtualization software. There is provided virtualization unit for capturing a configuration access to a physical device from a virtual CPU, identifying a partition to which the physical device belongs from a device address of the physical device accessed by the virtual CPU, and if the physical device does not belong to the virtual CPU's own partition, replacing a content of a configuration register that identifies the physical device with information on a nonexistent dummy device, and notifying the resultant to the virtual CPU. The physical device not belonging to the virtual CPU's own partition is recognized as a named valid device by using a dummy device driver corresponding to the dummy device. The dummy device driver rejects execution of processing common to all physical devices that is requested by the virtual CPU and disturbs operation of a physical device belonging to another partition.09-09-2010

20110128440IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING THE SAME - The frame rate of a pause frame of a moving image is detected. The number of frame images of the moving image to be used in a process of increasing the resolution of a low-resolution image is determined such that a larger number of frame images is set for a higher detected frame rate. In a super-resolution process, a high-resolution image is generated using the determined number of continuous frame images including the pause frame of the moving image. This makes it possible to appropriately determine the number of frames to be referred to in the super-resolution process in accordance with the frame rate of a moving image when generating a high-resolution image from the frames of a low-resolution moving image.06-02-2011
20110267424IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - An image processing apparatus includes: a converting unit that converts a frame rate of a stereoscopic video into an N-fold frame rate of the frame rate; and an outputting unit that converts images of respective frames of the stereoscopic video subjected to frame rate conversion into a high frequency image or a low frequency image and outputs the converted images, wherein the converting unit outputs an image for left eye and an image for right eye N times each at the converted frame rate, and the outputting unit converts at least one set of consecutive images constituted by a frame of the image for right eye and a frame of the image for left eye, from among 2×N frames output by the converting unit, into the high frequency image, converts an image of a remaining frame into the low frequency image, and then outputs the converted images.11-03-2011
