A solid-state imaging element includes a pixel array unit having pixels arranged in a matrix, each pixel including a photoelectric conversion element, and a pixel drive control unit capable of controlling driving of the pixel array unit so as to perform a read or reset access operation of the pixel array unit in accordance with specified address information. The pixel drive control unit is capable of setting a desired region in the pixel array unit as a window region to be accessed. The pixel drive control unit includes a function for performing, concurrently with access to the window region and output processing, read or reset access on at least one adjacent outer row that is adjacent to the window region.

Solid-state imaging element, driving method therefor, and camera system with a pixel drive control unit concurrently accessing a window region and the adjacent outer row

The present invention relates to a gateway system which relays a request from a user for a service provided by another system and to a recording medium therefor. An object of the present invention is to provide a desired information service with a single user ID and password entered on the side of each user by transmitting a request from each user received by a gateway to another desired information provider server or gateway with the user ID and password being converted and by returning a response to the request to the user through a reverse conversion process when the response is received. The gateway system according to the present invention includes a unit which authenticates the user upon receiving the request from the user, a unit which makes the request using link information and authentication information corresponding to the requested service, and a unit which incorporates link information concerning the gateway system into link information included in returned data corresponding to the requested service.

When an accounting process is performed through connectionless communications such as a WWW, etc., a retrieval CGI stores a retrieval result in a file having a file name generated from a process ID and a user ID. Then, a retrieving/accounting process is performed in units of a user ID and a process ID. A session is managed using the process ID as information to be exchanged, thereby requiring no resident combinational software. Furthermore, a volume-dependent accounting can be realized even when communications are disconnected.
