Abstract

An Open Descriptor demanding an access right is transmitted from a personal computer to a DVD player. In response to this demand, the DVD player transmits either an Accept response or a Reject response. Upon receiving the Accept response, the personal computer transmits a Write Descriptor. The Write Descriptor indicates an instruction that data (da) having a data length (le) is written (AuthDe) into an address (Add) of a sender (SD). Upon receiving this Write Descriptor, the DVD player transmits the Accept Write Descriptor indicating that the writing instruction has been accepted. Thus, in an authentication protocol, data is transmitted in accordance with the size of the buffer for use in an electronic machine.
