Abstract: Using image data generated by an image generating device, and image generation
record information that is associated with the image data and that includes at least subject
area information indicating a subject area in the image, hue of each pixel in the subject
area is calculated, and in the event that the proportion of pixels having hue of a

quality adjustment process appropriate for an image containing a subject identified by the
predetermined color range is executed. In preferred practice, the predetermined color
range is the skin color range, and the image quality adjustment process is a process
appropriate for a portrait image. When the image quality adjustment process appropriate
for a portrait image is not executed, and in the event that the proportion of pixels having
hue in the green range is greater than a second predetermined threshold value or in the
event that the proportion of pixels having hue in the sky blue range is greater than a third
predetermined threshold value, an image quality adjustment process appropriate for a

Abstract: The invention relates to the technical field of domestic networks. A domestic network based on the present UPnp-Standard allows AV connections to be set up between two network subscriber stations- Network connections such as these are set up and managed under the control of a network station which is in the form of a control point. In this case, the UPnP-Standard allows the network station which is the form of a control point to log off the network after setting up an AV connection, and thus to be inactive while the AV connection that has been set up is in existence. This results in the problem that an AV connection which has been set up unnecessarily remains in existence even after the desired AV data stream has been transmitted, so that further connection requests for such stations must be answered with a rejection. The invention solves this problem in that it provides additional monitoring means in the network subscriber stations which determine whether the connection has remained unused for a specific time. If yes, a signaling request is sent to all the network subscriber stations. If the connection partner station does not then respond, the connection which has been set up can likewise be added autonomously by the requesting station.

Abstract: The invention is directed to a process for transferring data packets through a protocol stack employed by the device for transmitting packets on a packet connection to a wireless network, said wireless network operating at least two, distinct wireless access technologies such as GSM/GPRS and UMTS. The packet transfer process generally comprises each layer of a protocol stack for a currently active packet connection path providing confirmation to a next, higher layer in the stack of successful reception of a data packet from that layer, thereby confirming successful transfer of the data packet through the stack. The first layer of the stack stores a copy of a transferred packet until such time as its receives confirmation from the next, lower layer of successful transfer of the packet of the stack. In the absence of such confirmation and on the occurrence of a switch (hand-off) of the packet connection to a new connection path, particularly one of a different wireless access technology, the stored packet is transferred to the protocol stack to be employed by the wireless device for the new packet connection path. Consequently, the packet transfer process avoids packets being lost on the occurrence of a switch between different technology wireless access packet connection paths.
