1. A terminal device comprising:

  • an extraction unit that extracts, from content being reproduced, signature data representing characteristics of the content;

    a query generation unit that generates a first query including at least the extracted signature data;

    a communication unit that transmits the generated first query to a server device and receives a first response which is returned by the server device in response to the first query;

    an application execution unit that acquires and executes an application corresponding to an application identifier included in the received first response;

    a database cache unit that acquires and holds reference data in which signature data that is held in a database of the server device and represents characteristics of content extracted from the content is associated with a content identifier representing the content of an extraction source and an application identifier representing an application to be executed in conjunction with the content; and

    a response generation unit that identifies content of an extraction source of signature data included in a second query in response to the second query transmitted from a separate terminal device belonging to a common network, by referring to the reference data in the database cache unit, and generates a second response to be returned to the separate terminal device, including at least the application identifier representing an application to be executed in conjunction with the identified content.
