20110306294 | PORTABLE INFORMATION TERMINAL, PORTABLE INFORMATION SYSTEM, AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING STORED THEREON PORTABLE INFORMATION TERMINAL CONTROL PROGRAM - When a portable information terminal operates in an unused state, a predetermined access point is searched for. As a result, when the predetermined access point is detected, a connection to the predetermined access point is established, and a predetermined data communication process is performed. | 12-15-2011 |
20110307892 | PORTABLE INFORMATION TERMINAL, COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING STORED THEREON PORTABLE INFORMATION TERMINAL CONTROL PROGRAM, PORTABLE INFORMATION SYSTEM, AND PORTABLE INFORMATION TERMINAL CONTROL METHOD - First, one or more tasks each representing process contents of transmission or reception of data are set. Next, an access point is searched for, and a connection to the access point is performed if the access point is found. Then, before the one or more tasks are executed via the access point, an execution control parameter, for at least one of the one or more tasks, which indicates at least one of an execution instruction, whether or not to execute the task, and an execution priority, is obtained in accordance with an access point identifier. Then, transmission or reception of data is performed via the access point by executing at least one of the one or more tasks on the basis of the execution control parameter. | 12-15-2011 |
20120021703 | Portable Information System - An example portable information terminal has a used and an unused state and includes a wireless communication module configured to search for a predetermined access point at least when the portable information terminal operates in the unused state and a processor configured to, when the predetermined access point is detected, connect to the predetermined access point and perform a data communication process. | 01-26-2012 |
20120028717 | GAME APPARATUS AND STORAGE MEDIUM STORING A GAME PROGRAM FOR CONDUCTING DATA COMMUNICATIONS WITH A NETWORK - A game apparatus includes an input-output processor, and by following an instruction from the input-output processor, messages are transmitted and received with other game apparatus | 02-02-2012 |
20120102028 | COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING STORED INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM THEREIN, INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM - A computer-readable storage medium having stored an information processing program therein, an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and an information processing system, which can efficiently prevent output of inappropriate contents to a recipient. Data including a content is assigned creation information indicating information related to a time when the content is created. Identification information for identifying a content which is inappropriate to be outputted to a user, among contents included in the data received from another information processing apparatus, is previously registered. A content identified on the basis of the previously registered identification information is set so as not to be outputted, whereby only a content which is not set so as not to be outputted can be outputted to the user. | 04-26-2012 |
20120221637 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM STORED THEREIN, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM - State change means changes a state of an information processing apparatus between an unused state and a used state. First communication means automatically performs communication with another portable information processing apparatus. Second communication means automatically performs communication via an access point. Communication control means performs control such that the communication by the first communication means is preferentially performed when the information processing apparatus is in the unused state and the communication by the second communication means is preferentially performed when the information processing apparatus is in the used state. | 08-30-2012 |
20120221734 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM STORED THEREIN, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM - A search for another information processing apparatus and a predetermined access point is automatically performed. When a result of the search is the other portable information processing apparatus, a process of automatically performing data communication with the other information processing apparatus is performed. On the other hand, when the result of the search is the access point, a process of automatically performing data communication via the access point is performed. | 08-30-2012 |
20120222045 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING INFORMATION PROCESSING PROGRAM STORED THEREIN, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM - Application process means executes a predetermined application program. Communication process means performs a predetermined data communication process with another communication target. Communication stop determination means determines whether or not to stop the data communication process performed by the communication process means, on the basis of an instruction from the application process means. When it is determined by the communication stop determination means to stop the data communication process, the data communication process is stopped. | 08-30-2012 |
20140315493 | Information Processing Apparatus, Computer-Readable Storage Medium Having Information Processing Program Stored Therein, Information Processing Method, And Information Processing System - A search for another information processing apparatus and an access point is performed. When a result of the search is the other portable information processing apparatus, a process of performing data communication with the other information processing apparatus is performed. On the other hand, when the result of the search is the access point, a process of performing data communication via the access point is performed. | 10-23-2014 |
20140328337 | PORTABLE INFORMATION TERMINAL PORTABLE INFORMATION SYSTEM AND COMPUTER-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM HAVING STORED THEREON PORTABLE INFORMATION TERMINAL CONTROL PROGRAM - When a portable information terminal operates in an unused state, a predetermined access point is searched for. As a result, when the predetermined access point is detected, a connection to the predetermined access point is established, and a predetermined data communication process is performed. | 11-06-2014 |
