There is provided a cellular phone taking into consideration enhancement in processing speed and reduction in current consumption, and the cellular phone comprises a processing unit capable of executing plural kinds of processing, an oscillator for generating a clock signal to be fed to the processing unit, and a clock controller for converting the frequency of the clock signal received from the oscillator, wherein the clock controller changes the frequency of the clock signal for each of the plural kinds of the processing in response to the control by the central processing unit.

Mobile terminal

Image data compression method and apparatus which improves image quality in a scene where image greatly changes and reduces the image data, and image transmission system and monitoring system using the method and apparatus. The image data compression apparatus which compresses input image data and outputs compressed image data comprises a detection unit which detects a motion or change of each scene, a determination unit which determines the detected motion amount or change amount, a switch circuit which controls a frame rate in accordance with the results of determination, and a compression encoding unit which compression-encodes the image data. The apparatus performs control such that an image having small motion amount and small change amount with respect to a predetermined image is not compression-encoded, so that the frame rate in a scene where the motion or change is large is higher than that in a scene where the motion and change are small.

Image data compression or expansion method and apparatus, and image transmission system and monitoring system using the method and device

An image data expansion apparatus including a decoder for decoding compressed image data at a frame rate controlled to be lower in a scene where the change is small than that in a scene where the change is large; an expander for expanding the compressed image data decoded by the decoder, the input image data being reproduced such that the frame rate is lower in a scene where the change between images is small than the frame rate in a scene where the change between images is large; and an image interpolator for generating an interpolation image from the input predetermined compressed image data in accordance with the information on the frame rate outputted with the compression image data. The reproduced input image data is interpolated with an interpolation image generated by interpolation processing by the image interpolator, and the interpolated image data is outputted.

In a document processing apparatus wherein when a format of a document or the like is set, a plurality of format patterns are simultaneously displayed, a selection is made of a desirable format pattern among said format patterns so as to perform a format setting operation, displays of the format patterns are subdivided into a plurality of screens based on a purpose or usage of a document to be formed. After selecting or designating the purpose or usage of the document, the above-described format pattern is displayed. The document format setting operation which was cumbersome in prior art can be readily performed by selecting a desirable format sample from the format samples which have been categorized based upon the usage thereof, and also by adding an item capable of freely setting a format into the format samples.

Document format setting method and apparatus

In a document processing apparatus wherein a format of a document or the like is set, a plurality of possible format patterns are simultaneously displayed, and a selection of a desirable format pattern among said format patterns is made so as to perform a format setting operation. Displays of the format patterns are subdivided into a plurality of screens based on a purpose or usage of a document to be formed. After selecting or designating the purpose or usage of the document, the above-described format pattern is displayed. The document format setting operation which was cumbersome in prior art can be readily performed by selecting a desirable format sample from the format samples which have been categorized based upon the usage thereof, and also by adding an item capable of freely setting a format into the format samples.
