Abstract: A screen display control device includes: a compression unit which compresses input image data in a line unit; a rewritable image memory to which the compressed data compressed in the line unit by the compression unit is written in non-synchronization with a reading process; a decompression unit which decompresses the compressed data periodically read from the image memory in synchronization with screen display to restore original image data; a display unit which displays an image of the image data decompressed and restored by the decompression unit; a buffer memory which temporarily maintains compressed one-line data compressed by the compression unit; and a writing/reading control unit which controls the processes of writing and reading the compressed data to and from the image memory and processes of writing and reading the image data to and from the buffer memory. When the processes of reading and writing the compressed data of the same line to and from the image memory compete with each other, the writing/reading control unit controls the image data of the line to be written so as to be maintained in the buffer memory. The writing/reading control unit controls the process of reading the compressed data of the line maintained in the buffer memory upon reading the compressed data of the line.
