Abstract: A method, system and computer-usable medium are disclosed for the processing of information collected by a mobile device at the site of an incident. An incident information processing system, comprising an incident location information module, receives incident information provided in a communication originated from a mobile device. The received incident information is processed by the incident location information module to provide location information, which is then used to provide incident response services. Image and audio information relating to the incident are likewise provided by the mobile device for processing into incident information. Incident statement questions are generated by the incident information processing system and are then presented via the mobile device for response by various parties associated with the incident. Responses to the questions are collected via the mobile device, processed into incident statements, and stored in the incident information and claims repository.

Abstract: In a case where a communication apparatus fails in authentication when acquiring communication parameters from another communication apparatus and where it is determined that an authentication request signal received from the other communication apparatus has been transmitted by unicast, the communication apparatus notifies said other communication apparatus of an error. On the other hand, even in a case where the communication apparatus fails in authentication, when it is determined that the authentication request signal received from the other communication apparatus has not been transmitted by unicast, the communication apparatus does not notify said other communication apparatus of an error.
