INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD, PROGRAM, RECORDING MEDIUM, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM
First Claim
1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a device information transmission unit configured to transmit device information to another information processing apparatus connected to a network;
a participation asking data reception determination unit configured to determine whether participation asking data has been received, the participation asking data being data to be transmitted based on the device information by the another information processing apparatus having received the device information, and prompting participation to a service concerning processing of an application program being executed by the another information processing apparatus; and
an execution determination unit configured to determine whether either execution of an application program for participating in the service, or installation and execution of the application program for participating in the service when it is determined that the participation asking data has been received.

Abstract
The present technology relates to an information processing apparatus and a method, a program, a recording medium, and an information processing system that realizes a number of variations in functions using a plurality of devices connected to a network. RD-Agent and RD-App are executed in each device, the RD-App is described using RD-Library, and a function of the RD-Agent is called by the RD-Library. The RD-Library is a library for calling the function of the RD-Agent from the RD-App. A service a is provided, to which a plurality of devices having RD-App_a1 and RD-App_a2 in execution participates, and a service b in which the plurality of devices in which RD-App_b1 and RD-App_b2 are executed participates is provided. A service a is provided, to which a plurality of devices having RD-App_a1 and RD-App_a2 in execution participates, and a service b is provided, to which a plurality of devices having RD-App_b1 and RD-App_b2 in execution participates.
