    Abstract: An image retrieval method and an image retrieval apparatus are disclosed in which it is possible to identify in which image-information recording medium or in which group an image to be retrieved is included. The image retrieval apparatus has a recording controller for recording image information on a disk drive or a hard disk drive. A reduction/expansion controller generates an index picture of a predetermined group of the image information. A retrieval-information storage unit generates index picture IDs, medium IDs, and folder IDs while correlating the above different types of IDs with each other, and stores the IDs together with the index pictures. With this arrangement, a desired item of image information is retrieved by using the index pictures, the index picture IDs, the medium IDs, and the folder IDs. It is thus possible to obtain a target image by sequentially checking the index picture visually.

    Abstract: Realizing a presentation system which can present picture data and voice data in a simplified manner after shooting and picking up pictures by a digital still camera, etc. and recording voices by a voice recorder, etc. Firstly, when the presentation system executes the program, a folder will be selected to specify a recording area in the personal computer 10 (step 1). After obtaining temporal information of all picture data and voice data in the folder, the presentation system performs relating operation for pages of slides so that the picture data and the voice data correspond to the slides at the time of data presentation (step 2). Next, the presentation system makes the user select whether information processing for data will be performed or not (step 3). If the user intends to perform the information processing for data, the flow advances to step 4, in which the user can perform the information processing for data such as voice recognition, text inputting, or selecting static pictures from moving pictures, if necessary, for each of the related slide data in the presentation system.

    Abstract: Disclosed is an information processing apparatus including a device for measuring a position, a time generator for generating time data representing times of day at which the positions are measured, a storage for storing data constituted by the measured position measuring and by an output of the time generator, the two outputs having an associative relation established therebetween, and an outputting device for outputting the stored data from the storage to an external entity.

    Abstract: A computer network is provided with a RIP server connected thereto to convert page description language (PDL) data into raster image data. The network also has connected thereto an output engine which works as a network printer without a RIP means to convert PDL data into raster image data. When printing out through the output engine, the host computer outputs PDL data corresponding to print-out data to the RIP server. The RIP server converts PDL data into raster image data, and transmits it to the output engine through the network to print out. A printing system thus achieves a cost reduction as a whole.
