Patent application number | Description | Published |
20090016566 | Apparatus for processing images, and method and computer program product for detecting image updates - The address calculating unit calculates a virtual address of a page for each pixel of a rectangular region of a predetermined size that is included in a screen. The acquiring unit acquires a physical address in correspondence with the virtual address of each pixel of the image information for which writing is requested, in accordance with a conversion table. The writing unit writes the image information for which writing is requested at the acquired physical address. The detecting unit detects an updated portion of the image information the content of which does not match before and after the writing, in units of pages. The compressing unit compresses the image information of the updated portion that is detected. | 01-15-2009 |
20090198809 | Communication device, method, and computer program product - A communication device includes a receiving unit that receives, from a computer running a virtual machine that can be switched between an active state and a stopped state, screen information provided by the virtual machine; a display unit that displays the screen information; a judging unit that, from the screen information displayed by the display unit, based on a number of operation procedures required for a process to be performed, judges whether the virtual machine performing the process by the operation procedures is to be stopped; and a transmitting unit that transmits a signal to the computer running the virtual machine judged to be stopped for stopping the virtual machine. | 08-06-2009 |
20100050006 | Communication apparatus, power supply control method, display apparatus, communication method, and computer program product - The detecting unit detects a disconnection of communications that have been established with a display apparatus. When the disconnection of the communications is detected, the message generating unit generates a confirmation message that confirms whether the communications should be reestablished. The transmitting unit transmits the confirmation message to the display apparatus. The receiving unit receives a reply message that indicates whether the communications should be reestablished from the display apparatus. The main power supply controlling unit shuts down the main power supply when the reply message indicates that the communications should not be reestablished, or when no reply message is received. | 02-25-2010 |
20100053472 | Image content transmitting server, image display apparatus, image content transmitting method, and image displaying method - An image content transmitting server includes a remote control service unit that transmits, to an image display apparatus connected via a network, data of a desktop screen displayed on another display apparatus, and receives an input from an input unit connected to the image display apparatus; an image-content transmission service unit that transmits a list of identification information of image contents to the image display apparatus, and transmits the image contents to the image display apparatus, based on the identification information of the image contents included in the list of identification information; and a service advertising unit that advertises services implemented by the remote control service unit and the image-content transmission service unit to the image display apparatus in accordance with a discovery protocol for finding the services. | 03-04-2010 |
20110310965 | COMMUNICATION DEVICE, COMMUNICATION METHOD, AND COMMUNICATION PROGRAM PRODUCT - According to one embodiment, a communication device includes an image storage unit storing a display image, an update image generation unit generating an update image used to update the display image, a detection unit detecting a difference region representing a region in which pieces of pixel information do not match between the update image and the display image, and a compression image generation unit generating a difference region compression image. The communication device further includes a moving picture generation unit generating a moving picture at a designated frame rate, a control unit comparing the size of the difference region with a first threshold and performs control of decreasing a frame rate designated to the moving picture generation unit when the size of the difference region is larger than the first threshold, and a transmission unit transmitting the compression image and the moving picture to the display device. | 12-22-2011 |
