Abstract: An information processing apparatus for performing a competition game based on a game result determined from fighting information for each of a plurality of users in accordance with a predetermined rule. The fighting information is generated based on images input by the plural users. The information processing apparatus includes: an input unit inputting a picture drawn by the user as the image; a generation unit generating the fighting information used in the game based on an amount of features of the image input from the input unit; and a performing unit performing the game based on the fighting information for the plural users generated from the generation unit.

Abstract: An apparatus for supplying document includes a storage unit configured to store therein a set of documents and an affiliation within an organization paired up with one of the documents, a unit configured to receive a request for accessing the one of the documents, a unit configured to check an affiliation of a person who made the request, a unit configured to evaluate a relationship between the checked affiliation and the stored affiliation paired up with the one of the documents in a tree structure representing a hierarchical structure of the organization with nodes of the tree structure representing affiliations within the organization, a unit configured to ascertain a level of disclosure with respect to the one of the documents in response to the evaluated relationship, and a unit configured to control disclosing of the one of the documents according to the ascertained level of disclosure.

Abstract: An information distribution system is provided that can distribute various types of information without imposing extra workload on users. This information distribution system includes a server device that can access a profile DB and an information source DB. This server device includes an operation history recorder, a feature extractor, a profiler, an information collector, and an information distributor. Every time a user operates an information device, the server device obtains the operation history of the user. The operation history contains the user ID, the types of operations, and the text information of the handled document. The server device then linguistically analyzes the text information to extract the feature information. After performing weighting on the feature information, the server device registers the feature information in the profile DB.
