Abstract

According to one embodiment, an image display control system includes a transmitting-side information processing device comprising shared data and a receiving-side information processing device viewing the shared data via a network. The transmitting-side information processing device further comprises transmission means for, upon receiving an access from the receiving-side information processing device, transmitting list information of the shared data and local time information in a location where the transmitting-side information processing device is provided, to the receiving-side information processing device making the access. The receiving-side information processing device includes storage means for storing time-corresponding data, and display means for associating the time-corresponding data which are read with the received list information of the shared data, and displaying the shared data together with the time-corresponding data.

Claims

1. An image display control system including a transmitting-side information processing device comprising shared data and a receiving-side information processing device viewing the shared data via a network,

the transmitting-side information processing device further comprising transmission means for, upon receiving an access from the receiving-side information processing device, transmitting list information of the shared data and local time information in a location where the transmitting-side information processing device is provided, to the receiving-side information processing device making the access,

the receiving-side information processing device comprising:

storage means for storing time-corresponding data;

reading means for receiving the list information of the shared data and the local time information in a location where the transmitting-side information processing device is provided, transmitted from the transmission means, and reading the time-corresponding data that correspond to the received local time information from the storage means; and

display means for associating the time-corresponding data which are read by the reading means with the received list information of the shared data, and displaying the shared data together with the time-corresponding data.

2. The system according to claim 1, wherein the transmitting-side information processing device and the receiving-side information processing device are connected, at local places having a time difference, via the network.

3. The system according to claim 1, wherein the time-corresponding data are at least one of image data corresponding to time, shape data corresponding to time, and color data corresponding to time.

4. The system according to claim 2, wherein the shared data are at least one of predetermined files, login information for each of the transmitting-side information processing device and the receiving-side information processing device, and use information of a predetermined server.

5. An image display control method of an image display control system including a transmitting-side information processing device comprising shared data and a receiving-side information processing device viewing the shared data via a network, the method comprising:

storing time-corresponding data in storage means of the receiving-side information processing device;

upon an access from the receiving-side information processing device to the transmitting-side information processing device, transmitting list information of the shared data and local time information in a location where the transmitting-side information processing device is provided, to the receiving-side information processing device making the access;

receiving the transmitted list information of the shared data and the transmitted local time information in the location where the transmitting-side information processing device is provided, and reading the time-corresponding data that correspond to the received local time information from the storage means; and

associating the time-corresponding data which are read by the reading means with the received list information of the shared data, and displaying the shared data together with the time-corresponding data on the receiving-side information processing device.

6. The method according to claim 5, wherein the transmitting-side information processing device and the receiving-side information processing device are connected, at local places having a time difference, via the network.

7. The method according to claim 5, wherein the time-corresponding data are at least one of image data corresponding to time, shape data corresponding to time, and color data corresponding to time.

8. The method according to claim 5, wherein the shared data are at least one of predetermined files, login information for each of the transmitting-side information processing device and the receiving-side information processing device, and use information of a predetermined server.

9. A program for urging a computer to execute:

storing time-corresponding data in storage means of a receiving-side information processing device;

upon an access from the receiving-side information processing device to a transmitting-side information processing device comprising shared data, transmitting list information of the shared data and local time information in a location where the transmitting-side information processing device is provided, to the receiving-side information processing device making the access;

receiving the transmitted list information of the shared data and the transmitted local time information in the location where the transmitting-side information processing device is provided, and reading the time-corresponding data that correspond to the received local time information from the storage means; and

associating the time-corresponding data which are read by the reading means with the received list information of the shared data, and displaying the shared data together with the time-corresponding data on the receiving-side information processing device.
