An information processing apparatus detects an unauthorized attack and transmits attack detection information concerning the detected attack to a communication control device. The communication control device selects an attack countermeasure instruction associated with an attack detection content that matches the attack detection information and an attack countermeasure function of the information processing apparatus by using the transmitted attack detection information and the attack countermeasure information stored in advance, decides a countermeasure method to be executed against the attack, and transmits the attack countermeasure instruction information including the decided countermeasure method to the information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus is characterized to decide the countermeasure method to be executed against the attack from the received attack countermeasure instruction information and to execute the decided countermeasure method against the attack.

When a beacon (n&#x2212;1) that is transmitted from a piconet coordinator (PNC) is detected in a MAC layer of the PNC and a MAC layer of a device (DEV), a detection signal is immediately transmitted to a LINK layer. In the LINK layer, a count is made from the detection of the beacon to a predetermined timing to generate a cycle timer. The PNC adds the PNC cycle timer to the subsequent beacon (n) and transmits the beacon to the DEV. In the LINK layer of the DEV, a comparison is made between a DEV cycle timer generated according to the beacon (n&#x2212;1) and the PNC cycle timer received from the PNC and uses the value of the difference therebetween to correct the DEV cycle timer to be matched with the PNC cycle timer.

Jitter correcting apparatus capable of ensuring synchronism between transmitter apparatus and receiver apparatus

An image processing device of the present invention is provided with an area position specifying device and a computing device. When the user specifies a desired object by using the area position specifying device, the computing device generates an emphasized image, in which the specified object is emphasized, and a line image, and the computing device further produces a composite image of these images so as to achieve an illustration image. In addition to the line image, the emphasized image is produced so that it is possible to emphasize an object desired by the user regardless of a state of the line image; consequently, it is possible to generate a natural illustration image in accordance with the actual image.
