Abstract: A method performed by a computer communicating with a terminal. The method includes when the computer enters a first area surrounding a second area together with the terminal, collecting one or more application contents corresponding to the second area from a service; when the computer enters the second area together with the terminal, delivering the collected application contents to the terminal; when the computer exits the second area together with the terminal, requesting the terminal to delete or nullify the delivered application contents; and when the computer exits the first area together with the terminal, organizing the collected application contents.

Abstract: An apparatus provides a first program to generate a first content with link data to be set in the first content so as to refer to a second content. The apparatus invokes a second program when a first condition associated with the provided link data is satisfied, and stores the second content generated by the invoked second program into a storage location indicated by the provided link data.

Abstract: Disclosed is an information succeeding method executed by a computer. The information succeeding method includes determining whether a context satisfies a predetermined condition; distributing a content to a terminal in a case where the context is determined to satisfy the predetermined condition; transmitting, upon receiving succeeding information indicating succeeding of the content from the terminal, content information corresponding to the succeeding information to the terminal; receiving from the terminal the previously distributed content, based on the content information; and transmitting the previously distributed content to a succeeding destination, upon receiving a content request that has been transmitted from the succeeding destination based on the content information, the content information having been received by the succeeding destination from the terminal.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a memory and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to receive an instruction to transfer a first application to an execution environment, detect a second application that shares a resource with the first application, the resource being information used upon executing the first application and the second application, provide information for causing a user to determine whether to prohibit transferring the second application to the execution environment when the second application is detected, and invalidate a state in which the second application shares the resource with the first application when instruction to prohibit transferring the second application to the execution environment is received.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus includes a storage that stores first information and second information, the first information associating a content of a call to be issued from a first application with information on whether to cause a user to select any of second applications, the second information associating the content of the call to be issued from the first application with any of the second applications, and a processor that is configured to receive a call issued from the first application, determine whether the received call is associated with information to cause the user to select any of the second applications based on the first information, specify the second application associated with a content of the received call based on the second information when the received call is determined to be associated with the information to cause the user to select the second applications, and execute the specified second application.

Abstract: There are provided an XML engine which receives data for storage, and a policy control unit which refers to a pre-specified policy set taking into account the characteristics (degree of popularity, urgency, importance, etc.) of the data and stores the data in a recording medium (such as a disk and a cache memory) of a predetermined node.

Abstract: In a file system configured by one or a plurality of volumes, policy attribute data is set in correspondence with the path information of a directory, and a file is managed based on the policy attribute data. As a result, a policy specific to the directory can be set while maintaining the compatibility with an existing file system. For example, a volume number is set as the policy attribute data of a file, so that a file system administrator can specify the storage location of the file.

Abstract: A parallel computer system comprises a plurality of calculation nodes and I/O nodes connected through a network. This parallel computer system comprises a plurality of secondary storage devices for storing, as partition files, divided data which correspond to a logical file processed on said calculation nodes. The plurality of secondary storage devices are connected to the I/O nodes, respectively. This parallel computer system further comprises a network file unit for relating the logical file with the partition files separately stored among said plurality of secondary storage devices. As the data corresponding to the logical file on the calculation nodes are separated and stored in the plurality of the secondary storage devices, the busy state in data input/output in the I/O nodes is resolved, thereby enabling a high-speed processing of a massive volume of data in the parallel computer system.
