Presence service system, a presence apparatus, a presence service method, and a presence service program
First Claim
1. A presence service system, comprising at least two terminals connected via a network to each other for communicating presence information therebetween,wherein each terminal applies a presence notification policy registered corresponding to a condition regarding presence information;
- andwherein each of the terminals comprises;
presence information keeping means for keeping therein the presence information of the transmission-side terminal;
presence notification policy keeping means for keeping therein the condition and the presence notification policy registered corresponding to the condition;
presence notification policy setting means for acquiring the presence information of the transmission-side terminal from the presence information keeping means and determining whether or not the presence information satisfies the condition kept in the presence information keeping means;
presence information notifying means for receiving, if the presence information satisfies the condition, the presence notification policy registered corresponding to the condition from the presence notification policy setting means; and
reception-side terminal list keeping means for registering a reception-side terminal having issued a subscribe request,the presence information notifying means notifying, if the presence information satisfies the condition, the presence information obtained from the presence notification policy keeping means to the reception-side terminal registered to the reception-side terminal list keeping means, according to the presence notification policy received from the presence notification policy setting means.

Abstract
In a presence service system, at least two terminals are connected via a network to each other for communicating presence information therebetween. Each terminal applies a presence notification policy registered corresponding to a condition regarding presence information. A presence service system, a presence apparatus, a presence service method, and a presence service program make it possible to mitigate presence policy setting load imposed onto the user.
