Patent number: 10194297Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a session generating unit, an associating unit, and a processing unit. The session generating unit generates, in a case where an operation is accepted from a first terminal with a user not uniquely identified, first session information in association with the first terminal and generates, in a case where an operation is accepted from a second terminal, second session information in association with the second terminal. The associating unit associates the first session information with the second session information in a case where an operation for associating the first terminal with the second terminal is accepted. The processing unit performs, in a case where the first session information is associated with the second session information, a process using an operation log stored in association with the first terminal, in response to an operation performed using the second terminal.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2016Date of Patent: January 29, 2019Assignee: FUJI XEROX CO., LTD.Inventors: Shigehiko Sasaki, Hirochika Shionoiri
