Abstract
A method and apparatus for storing and rewriting programs in an IC card. The system provides for storing programs in subdivided portions identified by attribute information including a program number, size and address. The system enables the rewriting of constituent elements of programs without the need for rewriting larger portions. The information identifying the programs parts is stored in an attribute information table in which said sub-area discrimination information and said management information are stored in combination.
