Inventor: OZAWA KAZUNORI
IPC: H04N19/44
Filed: 2004-10-27
Abstract: An apparatus and a method in which, even in case the transmitted speed on a transmission channel is low and hence it is not possible to provide a sufficient number of frames, a receiving side is able to restore a picture, which has not been received, with the use of a characteristic parameter, in such a manner that motion can be expressed sufficiently satisfactorily on the receiving side to improve the quality of a moving picture. The apparatus includes a decoder 200 for receiving a bitstream, obtained on compression/encoding of a moving picture, and for decoding a picture image from the bitstream; a characteristic parameter extractor 210 for extracting a characteristic parameter from a picture image restored, a moving picture reconstructor 212 for carrying out preset processing, using one or both of a temporally past characteristic parameter and a temporally future characteristic parameter, for restoring a picture image which has not been received.

Abstract: Described are sequence numbers for client-server communication, to control a client's use of server resources. A server grants the client credits, and the client consumes a credit for sending each command to the server. Each credit corresponds to a sequence number, with the set of sequence numbers forming a valid command window. The server enforces that for each received command, the command includes a sequence number that is within the valid command window and that the sequence number has not been used with another command. The server may also maintain a maximum window size, such that clients with credits cannot send a command with a sequence number that beyond a maximum sequence number. When incorporated into a data communication protocol, quality of service, combating denial of service, detection of message loss, division of server resources, secure message signing, and other numerous benefits result.
