  • Publication number: 20140278613
    Abstract: Vacancy information indicating the number of vacancies which is counted in units of using-persons in a facility that is occupied by persons who use an establishment is stored in a vacancy information storage unit. An information processing apparatus acquires the number of using-persons which is specified by a user. The information processing apparatus searches, on the basis of the vacancy information stored in the vacancy information storage unit, for establishments that can be used by persons of which the number is acquired. At this time, the information processing apparatus includes an establishment, in establishments that can be used, where the degree by which the number of using-persons exceeds the number of vacancies indicated by the vacancy information is smaller than or equal to a reference value. The information processing apparatus causes the found establishments to be presented.
