Abstract: A user defines a job flow of desired service cooperation according to a GUI screen displayed on a client terminal where parallel processing of plural parallel-executable jobs can be set. According to the thus-defined job flow, an instruction data generation server generates instruction data defining the content of processes, a storage location of a document as a subject, and other items. When the user selects desired one of the instruction data, the selected instruction data is sent to a cooperative processing server.

Abstract: A service processing apparatus and a service processing method make devices connected to a network cooperatively effect plural processes on document data when a specific event occurs. When a user defines a processing timing so that a job is executed when the specific event occurs in a desired job flow and a predetermined device, an instruction generating server creates an instruction and sends it to an instruction managing server together with a processing timing information. When the instruction managing server has been notified that the specific event has occurred, the instruction managing server identifies the instruction from the correspondence relation between the instruction and the processing timing and sends the instruction to a cooperate processing server. The cooperative processing server requests the devices to conduct processing so that a document is processed in accordance with the content of the instruction, and makes the devices cooperatively effect plural processes.

Abstract: A vehicle meter self-diagnosis apparatus includes cross coil movements 11, 13, 15, and 17, drivers 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18, a driver control circuit 20, a ROM 22 into which indication adjustment information of the cross coil movements 11, 13, 15, and 17 is written, a CPU 8, and a self-diagnosis control circuit section 30 being started by a reset switch 32 for driving the drivers 10, 12, 14, 16, and 18 and diagnosing the cross coil movements 11, 13, 15, and 17.
