At member registration step, a master transmits a certificate and a priority to a slave. The certificate indicates that the slave receiving it belongs to the same data synchronization group as the master. The priority is used to solve a data conflict. At data synchronization, after it is determined that members belong to the same data synchronization group by the certificate, data synchronization processing is performed between arbitrary members in which an input device and a display device such as a wrist watch are limited. Data synchronization does not require a specific server.

Communication method for data synchronization processing and electronic device therefor

A continuous data server apparatus incorporating a plurality of buffer memory units for storing the continuous data read out by the data memory control units and to be given to the communication control unit, at least one buffer memory unit being provided dedicatedly for each combination of one data memory control unit group formed by at least one data memory control unit and one communication control unit group formed by at least one communication control unit. The apparatus may further incorporate a plurality of calculation units connected in series, where each calculation unit is connected between corresponding one data memory control unit group and at least one buffer memory unit, and carrying out a prescribed calculation processing. The continuous data can be arranged over a plurality of data memory control units in word units, such that the data memory control units read out the continuous data in block units, the buffer memory units store the continuous data in block units, and the communication control unit transfers the continuous data obtained by reading out data the buffer memory units sequentially in word units.

Continuous data server apparatus and data transfer scheme enabling

This invention relates to a display method, and in particularly, to an output display method for a machine translation system, Display section has a predetermined portion for translated sections, and identifies original sentences or characters when a referring request is made to a part of the translated sentences. Highlight display of original sentences may be scrolled synchronously with the scrolling of the translated sentences or independently.

Machine translation method and apparatus

A method and apparatus for machine translation of a language capable of dealing efficiently with situations which conventionally required repetitions of similar translations, including the steps of: searching, for each new original document to be translated, the stored original documents which are utilizable in translation of the new original document to be translated; and translating the new original document to be translated by utilizing the stored translated documents corresponding to the stored original document found by the search.

Method and apparatus for machine translation utilizing previously

A machine translation processor according to the present invention includes an input section having a keyboard with a partial translation command key, a translation processing section having dictionaries for performing translation of an original sentence, a time measuring section for measuring the actual translation time performed in the translation processing section, a memory for storing both the original and translation sentences, a dividing section for dividing the original sentence into phrases in accordance with a predetermined rule for division, and a control section for controlling the translation of the original sentence such that when the partial translation command key is operated or the actual translation time measured reaches a predetermined maximum translation time, the original is divided into phrases by the dividing section and the phrases are translated by the translation processing section. Overall translation time is reduced by dividing the difficult original sentence into phrases that may easily translated.

Processing method and processor for machine translation

A machine translation system having input means having different function keys, edit keys, cursor keys as well as having normal character keys and numeric keys, for performing various functions for translation, edit control means for controlling the edition operation of the system, translation means coupled to the edit control means, for executing the translation processing in accordance with control signals from the edit control means, and dictionary means having at least a first dictionary for storing various words in various parts of speech in a first language and their translation in a second language corresponding to the words in the first language, and a second dictionary for storing various terminology in noun in the second language corresponding to the words in the first language as well as storing various grammars for the analysis of the languages with this constriction, the meaning of particular kinds of the parts of speech other than a noun takes precedence of the meaning of the Noun when determining words and idioms to be picked up from the first dictionary and when same terminology as a noun as that stored in the first dictionary is found in the second dictionary, the meaning of the terminology in the second dictionary takes precedence of the meaning of that stored in the first dictionary when producing the translated sentences, thereby performing a correct translation in high speed.
