Abstract:
A portable terminal stores a first URL which specifies personal information of a user stored in a personal server, and transmits the first URL to a settlement device. The settlement device serves as a network access port for the portable terminal. The personal server is a server which manages personal data of the user that is identified by the first URL, and communicates with the settlement device and a service server via a network. The service server is a server for performing processing identified by a second URL. The service server executes the processing thereof by communicating with the settlement server and personal server via the network. Thus, the user can receive various types of services. Accordingly, a service providing system can be used with a portable terminal that does not hold any personal information therein.
Abstract:
History memory 430 correlates the input values and execution result of a function for each piece of function identification information, and holds as an execution history. A command decoder 320 supplies function identification information included in a previous notice command for predicting the function from a fetch unit 310 to an execution history search unit 410. Also, the command decoder 320 causes the execution history search unit 410 to obtain the input value output from an input selecting unit 332 based on, of commands to be read out after the previous notice command, an input value setting command for setting a function input value. The execution history search unit 410 searches an execution history agreeing with the obtained identification information and input values thereof before a function call-up command. An execution result output unit 420 outputs the execution result detected by the execution history search unit 410 to an executing unit 330. The fetch unit 310 reads out a command to be read out following the function.

Abstract:
An image processing apparatus capable of performing flexible, high speed processing, wherein a memory region emptied due to a change of display resolution can be used as a texture memory, increase of an overhead such as switching pages can be prevented, and a decline in the performance is not caused. A built-in DRAM inside a semiconductor chip has a configuration for storing display data and the texture data required by at least one graphic element. The texture data can be stored in portions other than the display regions, so the built-in DRAM can be used efficiently and an image processing apparatus achieving both high speed operation and a reduction of power consumption can be realized.
