Abstract: An information processing device acquires a device state of an external storage device when a use request is received from a virtual machine. When the device state indicates an allocated state, the allocated state is reported to another virtual machine. When the device state indicates an allocation-enabled state, the external storage device is allocated to the virtual machine. When the device state indicates a release-enabled state, the external storage device is allocated to the virtual machine after unreflected data is processed.

Abstract: When the activation of an output device is detected, the response prompt screen on which a response by an input device is requested is displayed on the activated output device, and when a response from the input device is received through the displayed response prompt screen, the input device which has returned a response is associated with the output device whose response prompt screen is displayed.

Abstract: A data output apparatus accumulates received sound data in an accumulating unit (jitter buffer), and reproduces sound based on the accumulated sound data. Then, for a predetermined period of time from the time point at which reception of data starts, the data output apparatus restricts or prohibits discarding of data based on an upper accumulation limit amount as a basis for discarding the accumulated data. Moreover, prior to starting reception of sound data after a transfer of a transmission right, dummy data such as soundless data is accumulated in the accumulating unit. Further, the set values of the upper accumulation limit amount, etc. optimized in the previous communication are stored, and the settings stored in association with a transmitting source apparatus are set as the upper accumulation limit amount, etc. after the transfer of the transmission right.

Abstract: A presence server stores a presence that is identified by presence IDs “a1” and “a2”, as the presence of a user “A”. User “A” can pass a card that they hold through a card reader at a timing of their choosing. The card reader reads in data from the card and transmits a renewal request to the presence server. The renewal request includes a renewer ID, an object ID, category information and the presence. When the presence server receives the renewal request, it specifies the presence ID “a1” of user “A” to be the presence that is to be renewed, based on the category information, and moreover, rewrites the presence of the presence ID “a1” to a presence “meeting room A” that is included in the renewal request. Thus, the card reader can renew the presence designated by the “category information”. As for the presence that is renewed, it is notified to a watcher of the presence “a1” from the presence server.
