Abstract: A load-distribution-process-server includes: a memory; and a processor coupled to the memory and the processor configured to: receive a first execution request of a work flow including a plurality of process components each serving as a process execution unit and representing an execution sequence of the process components; execute the process components designated by the first execution request; select one load-distribution-process-server to execute a subsequent process component from a plurality of load-distribution-process-servers, based on a load condition of a first load-distribution-process-server and load conditions of second load-distribution-process-servers capable of processing the subsequent process component; and when the selected one load-distribution-process-server is one of the second load-distribution-process-servers, transmit a second execution request including an identifier of the work flow, transfer information of the work flow according to processes executed prior to the subsequent proces

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of processing information executed by a processor included in an information processing apparatus, the method includes executing, with the processor, a first workflow including a determination processing to determine whether there is a second workflow to be used after the first workflow; determining whether there is the second workflow in the determination processing; switching from the first workflow to the second workflow by starting the second workflow and terminating the first workflow, when determining that there is the second workflow; and providing the second workflow to a terminal device.
