  • Patent number: 9754088
    Abstract: An information processing system includes an information processing device, and an electronic device to utilize a service provided from the information processing device. A service delivery unit provides the service for the electronic device. An information management unit manages license information of the service, generates use permission information and sends the generated use permission information to the electronic device. An execution management unit manages an execution request of the service specifying the use permission information of the service. An execution unit determines whether to have a use authority of a function of the electronic device utilized by the service based on contents of the license included in the use permission information of the service and executes the service by utilizing the function of the electronic device upon determining that the use authority of the function of the electronic device utilized by the service is present.
