Abstract: A network device includes a first request unit configured to issue a first request for requesting information indicating a storage destination in which data stored in a storage device of the network device is stored as backup data and a transmission unit configured to transmit data stored in the storage device using the information indicating the storage destination received in response to the first request. A data management system includes a first response unit configured to respond with the information indicating the storage destination to the network device in response to the first request. In response to storing of the differential backup data from the network device in a storage system, before the differential backup data is stored, a process of merging full backup data managed in the storage system and the differential backup data is performed.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention receives an available amount of a consumable material available for use in modeling by a control apparatus configured to model a three-dimensional object using the consumable material, and selects, in a case where a plurality of objects is designated as a modeling target to be modeled by the control apparatus and a setting for the modeling by the control apparatus is designated and a required amount of the consumable material required for the modeling of the plurality of objects by the control apparatus according to the setting is larger than the received available amount, one or more of the plurality of objects as a modeling target such that the required amount of the consumable material required for the modeling by the control apparatus according to the setting is within the available amount.

Abstract: A management apparatus according to the present invention performs a search of a mesh network for a network device, obtains operation information from the network device found by the search via the mesh network, and further transmits the obtained operation information to a device management system via a mobile network.

Abstract: A server manages a script and a task, the script being a command via a web page provided by a network device, and the task designating a timing of execution of the script. In a case where the server detects a change in a configuration of the web page provided by the network device, the server controls execution of the script of the task according to the detected change. In a case where the detected change indicates that a web page element to be an operation target by the script of the managed task has been deleted, the server stops the execution of the script.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus that manages information about a plurality of modeling apparatuses each of which models a three-dimensional object acquires setting information indicating a setting for modeling to a modeling apparatus having received an instruction for modeling of an object, acquires performance information indicating a function concerning modeling that is able to be provided by an alternative modeling apparatus other than the modeling apparatus having received the instruction, determines whether the setting for modeling is able to be applied to the alternative modeling apparatus based on the acquired performance information about the alternative modeling apparatus in order to cause the alternative modeling apparatus to model the object concerning the instruction, and controls displaying of information indicating a result of determining whether the setting for modeling is able to be applied to the alternative modeling apparatus.
