Program control apparatus and program control method
First Claim
1. A program control apparatus comprising:
- ID class determining means for determining whether a tag ID read by a tag reader is a service ID to specify a service, or an attribute ID to specify an attribute of an article; and
program controlling means for, when the ID class determining means determines that the tag ID read by the tag reader is a service ID, running a program associated with the service ID and for, when the ID class determining means determines that the tag ID read by the tag reader is an attribute ID, notifying a running program of attribute information associated with the attribute ID, to change behavior of the running program according to the attribute information.

Abstract
A program control apparatus 10 is provided with an ID class determiner 12 for determining whether a tag ID read by a tag reader 100 is a service ID to specify a service, or an attribute ID to specify an attribute of an article; and a program controller 14 so configured that when the ID class determiner 12 determines that the tag ID read by the tag reader 100 is a service ID, the program controller 14 runs a program associated with the service ID and that when the ID class determiner 12 determines that the tag ID read by the tag reader 100 is an attribute ID, the program controller 14 notifies a running program of attribute information associated with the attribute ID, to change the behavior of the running program according to the attribute information.

5. A program control method comprising:
-
an ID class determining step wherein ID class determining means determines whether a tag ID read by a tag reader is a service ID to specify a service, or an attribute ID to specify an attribute of an article;
a program running step wherein, when it is determined in the ID class determining step that the tag ID read by the tag reader is a service ID, program controlling means runs a program associated with the service ID; and
a program behavior changing step wherein, when it is determined in the ID class determining step that the tag ID read by the tag reader is an attribute ID, the program controlling means notifies a running program of attribute information associated with the attribute ID, to change behavior of the running program according to the attribute information.
