Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A communication method for a transmission-side node and a reception-side node performing transmission and reception via a communication line in a predetermined cycle includes: causing the transmission-side node and the reception-side node to transmit identification information indicating a status of an event of transmission of object data to the communication line in the predetermined cycle; if a new event of transmission of the object data occurs, causing the transmission-side node to update a value of the identification information and transmit the updated identification information together with the object data to the communication line in the predetermined cycle; and causing the reception-side node to receive the object data and the updated identification information, and upon completion of reception of the object data corresponding to the updated identification information, update a value of the identification information and transmit the updated identification information to the communication line in the predetermined cycle.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1 . A communication method for a transmission-side node and a reception-side node performing transmission and reception via a communication line in a predetermined cycle, the communication method comprising: causing the transmission-side node and the reception-side node to transmit identification information indicating a status of an event of transmission of object data to the communication line in the predetermined cycle; if a new event of transmission of the object data occurs, causing the transmission-side node to update a value of the identification information and transmit the updated identification information together with the object data to the communication line in the predetermined cycle; and causing the reception side node to receive the object data and the updated identification information, and upon completion of reception of the object data corresponding to the updated identification information, update a value of the identification information and transmit the updated identification information to the communication line in the predetermined cycle. 2 . The communication method according to claim 1 , wherein if the transmission-side node receives the updated identification information from the reception-side node after start of transmission of the object data due to the occurrence of the event, the transmission-side node terminates the transmission of the object data. 3 . The communication method according to claim 1 , wherein the event is an event of screen transition and the object data is data for screen display. 4 . The communication method according to claim 1 , wherein: the object data includes a plurality of element data, and the transmission-side node provides identification information to each of the element data and transmits the identification information for the respective element data together with the element data; and upon completion of reception of the element data corresponding to the identification information for the respective element data, the reception-side node updates the identification information for the object data. 5 . The communication method according to claim 4 , wherein the object data is data for displaying a screen, data for displaying elements included in the screen is the element data, and identification information is provided to each of the element data. 6 . The communication method according to claim 4 , wherein if the element data is divided and transmitted in a plurality of data frames, at least one of information indicating serial numbers provided to the respective data frames in which the element data is divided, information indicating a last data frame of the data frames in which element data is divided and information indicating a total number of the data frames in which the element data is divided is added to the identification information for the respective element data.
