A method and an electronic device for composing an image are provided. An electronic device includes a display configured to display an image of a user photographed by a camera; an input component configured to receive a user input; a communicator configured to facilitate a communication with an external server; and a processor configured to display the image of the user on the display, set an avatar region within the image of the user based on the received user input, generate an avatar to be displayed on the avatar region, and control the display to combine the avatar with the image of the user and to display the resulting composite image.

Method and device for combining an avatar image with a portion of a user's image

A technique for controlling an electronic device thereof is provided. The technique includes, in response to an attachment device being selected by an external device from a list of attachment devices, receiving and storing mapping information in which data configured in a first communication format and data configured in a second communication format in relation to one function of the electronic device to which the attachment device is attached are mapped. In addition, in response to the data configured in the first communication format being received from an external device which is communicably connected with the attachment device, the data configured in the second communication format corresponding to the data configured in the first communication format based on the mapping information is acquired, and the data configured in the second communication format to the electronic device to control the one function of the electronic device to be performed is transmitted.

Attachment device and method for controlling electronic device thereof

An apparatus and method for synthesizing an image and an electronic apparatus using the method are provided. The electronic apparatus includes a memory that stores pictures, a transceiver that communicates with an external server, a display that detects a user interaction, and a processor that reads pictures from the memory. The processor first selects pictures based on a weighted value, determines first attribute information and second attribute information from the first selected pictures, stores the first attribute information and the second attribute information in a database form, second selects at least one picture from among the first selected pictures based on the first attribute information, the second attribute information and user context information, controls the transceiver to receive a product image corresponding to the second selected picture from the external server, and creates a composite image by synthesizing the second selected picture and the product image.

Method for synthesizing image and an electronic device using the same

A user terminal device includes a touch screen including a main display area and an auxiliary display area including a curved portion extending from the main display area, and a processor configured to, in response to an input for moving an icon displayed on the main display area to the auxiliary display area, control the touch screen to display the icon on the auxiliary display area.

User terminal device and displaying method thereof

Provided is a display device for efficiently providing content to a user using a transparent display. The display device includes: a transparent display; a direction determiner configured to determine a user-facing surface among a first surface and a second surface of the transparent display, the user-facing surface referring to a surface which faces a user; and a controller configured to render first content on the transparent display in a direction corresponding to the first surface if the first surface faces the user, and configured to render second content on the transparent display in a direction corresponding to the second surface if the second surface faces the user.

Display device having a transparent display and a method for controlling the display device to render content on a surface of the transparent display that a user faces

Provided is a method of transmitting a message. The method includes: obtaining identification information used to identify a user based on bio information of the user that is obtained by a device; determining whether control over an external device is approved based on the identification information; obtaining control information used to control an operation of the external device based on the determination; and transmitting a message including the control information to the external device.

Device and method for transmitting message

A method for performing a function of a display apparatus including, displaying, in response to a first user input being received on an edge area among a plurality of edge areas of a screen, a menu on the screen, the displayed menu comprising at least one item, and performing, in response to a selection of the at least one item from the displayed menu, performing a function corresponding to the selected item, and when an item is selected from the menu, a function corresponding to the selected the at least one item, wherein the displayed menu corresponds to the edge area among the plurality of edge areas where the first user input is received, and wherein at least one other menu corresponds to at least one edge area among the plurality of edge areas where the user input was not received.

Display apparatus and method for improving visibility of the same

Provided are a portable device, a wearable device, and a system including the same for setting a reception of a notification message in the wearable device. The portable device includes: a wireless communicator configured to receive, from a wearable device via wireless communication, information regarding a notification setting; and a controller configured to identify an event and to determine, based on the received information, whether to transmit a notification to the wearable device in response to the identified event.

Wearable device and method of setting reception of notification message therein

Display screen or portion thereof with icon

Display screen or portion thereof with graphical user interface

An instruction compressing apparatus and method for a parallel processing computer such as a very long instruction word (VLIW) computer, are provided. The instruction compressing apparatus includes a bundle code generating unit, an instruction compressing unit, and an instruction converting unit. The bundle code generating unit may generate a bundle code in response to an input of instructions to be compressed. The bundle code may indicate whether a current instruction group is terminated, and also whether an instruction group following the current instruction group is a no-operation (NOP) instruction group. The instruction compressing unit may remove a NOP instruction and/or a NOP instruction group from the input instructions according to the generated bundle code. The instruction converting unit may include the generated bundle code in the remaining instructions which have not been removed by the instruction compressing unit.
