The information processing apparatus causes a predetermined process corresponding to the operation to be performed for a selected first item and causes items to be arranged in the display area so that the first item or a second item arranged just before the first item among the plurality of items is the item arranged foremost among the items listed in the display area.

Abstract: To enable dynamic changing of a range of information that forms a basis of a screen provided to a user depending on a change in an environment of an information processing terminal, an environmental information acquisition unit sequentially acquires environmental information representing an environment of a user terminal. A monitoring unit changes a publicly-displayable range of information on a user of the user terminal depending on a change in the environmental information sequentially acquired by the environmental information acquisition unit. A page changing unit limits the range of the information that forms the basis of the screen provided to the user so that the range of the information falls within the publicly-displayable range after the change.

Abstract: An answer form capable of saving display space and visibly easy to examine is provided. An answer form processing method includes the steps of obtaining a question form including one or more lines of a question sentence and a plurality of consecutive lines of options, obtaining an answer form that indicates an answer for the question sentence from an answerer, the answer form being generated by adding one or more characters to the one or more lines in the question form, each of the lines indicating the option, comparing the question form and the answer form on a line-by-line basis, and outputting at least a part of each line in the answer form while restricting output of the line which matches the corresponding line in the question form, thereby outputting the answer form where the line indicating the option to which one or more characters are not added by the answerer is omitted.

Abstract: An information processing device according to one embodiment includes a setting unit and a control unit. The setting unit sets, based on user operation positions in a graphical user interface that outputs information on a basis of a value specified by a user operation, an adjustment range being a part of a slidable range in the graphical user interface. The control unit controls the graphical user interface so that a pace of change in the value in the adjustment range is lower than a pace of change in the value in a no adjustment range different from the adjustment range.

Abstract: Even when it takes time to perform rendering of a web page, it is made possible to execute a process intended by a user who performs an operation of pointing at an element in the web page. When an operation of pointing at a position of an element in a web page is received before drawing of the web page is completed, an information processing apparatus acquires coordinates indicating the position and a screen shot of the web page. The information processing apparatus identifies an element indicated by an image, in the screen shot, located at a position indicated by the coordinates. When a process corresponding to an event of the operation is to be executed, the information processing apparatus causes a process that is executed when the operation is performed on the identified element to be executed.

Abstract: A web page providing device includes a receiving unit and a transmitting unit. The receiving unit is configured to receive a request for a web page from a terminal. The transmitting unit is configured to transmit to the terminal the web page from which a script is readable. The script causes the terminal to execute: measuring an elapsed time from a most recent operation and determining whether the elapsed time exceeds a predetermined time; when it is determined that the elapsed time exceeds the predetermined time, changing a display mode of the web page from a normal display mode to another display mode returning the display mode of the web page to the normal display mode in a case where a reset operation is performed by the user of the terminal when the display mode of the web page is the other display mode.

Abstract: It is an object to allow for simplification of authentication information to be input by a user while ensuring security. An information processing apparatus identifies a current situation in which a user is placed. The information processing apparatus obtains a past situation in which the user was placed at the time of past authentication. When the user is currently authenticated, the information processing apparatus simplifies authentication information to be entered by the user, depending on the current and past situations. The information processing apparatus outputs information prompting for the simplified authentication information.

Abstract: An object is to maintain an input load of authentication information properly while assuring safety. An information processing apparatus obtains authentication information conforming to a predetermined requirement of complexity. The information processing apparatus obtains cost of an input operation of each of a plurality of codes included in the authentication information. On the basis of the obtained costs, the information processing apparatus calculates an input cost of the authentication information. The information processing apparatus determines propriety of the authentication information on the basis of the calculated input cost.

Abstract: An audio communication system includes a generation unit that superimposes an addition sound having a volume level determined on the basis of a voice acquired by a voice acquisition unit on an input voice acquired by the voice acquisition unit of a transmission terminal and generates a synthesis sound and a transmission unit that transmits a signal of the synthesis sound generated by the generation unit to a reception terminal.
