First Exemplary Embodiment
[Exemplary Configuration of Image Forming System]
[0066]FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of a configuration of a system including a digital multifunction apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0067] In FIG. 1, reference numeral 304 denotes an Internet communication network. Reference numeral 303 denotes a firewall that connects a LAN 40 to an external communication network (Internet 304) and manages communication security. Reference numeral 302 denotes a device management server that manages devices 10, 20, 21, and 301 connected via the LAN 40. Reference numeral 301 denotes a file server that allows a plurality of users to share data via the LAN 40.
[0068] Reference numeral 10 denotes a digital multifunction apparatus (also called a multifunction peripheral (hereinafter, referred to as an MFP)) capable of inputting / outputting image data. In the MFP 10, an operation unit 180 is used by a user to input an operation command
Example
[0160] In the first embodiment described above, loading of programs is managed using the program load request flag 1700 and the program load management flags 1710. Instead, in a second embodiment described below, loading of programs is managed in accordance with a table in which a selection status of each program and a loading status indicating whether each program has been loaded in the RAM 1110 are described. In this second embodiment, the order of loading programs can also be determined in accordance with the table. The details of the second embodiment are described below.
[Exemplary Controller Unit]
[0161]FIG. 10 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a MFP 10 and a controller unit 100 thereof according to a second embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 10, similar parts to those in FIG. 3 are denoted by similar reference numerals and a duplicated explanation thereof is omitted herein.
Example
[0162] The MFP 10 shown in FIG. 10 according to the second embodiment is different from that according to the first embodiment shown in FIG. 3 in that the program load request flag 1700 and the program load management flags 1710 shown in FIG. 3 are replaced by the program load management table 1720.
[0163] The program load management table 1720 includes selection status information indicating functions to be enabled preferentially in advance to the other functions and load status information indicating whether corresponding programs have been loaded into the RAM 1110. The program load management table 1720 also indicates the order of loading programs.
[0164]FIG. 11 shows an example of the program load management table 1720 shown in FIG. 10.
[0165] As shown in FIG. 11, the program load management table 1720 has a field in which a management number 1720a is described, a field in which a function name 1720b is described, a field in which a priority function flag 1720c is stored, and a fie
