摘要:
A client device issues an event notification request to a service-providing apparatus, and notifies the service-providing apparatus whether an event processing unit which processes the event for which the notification request has been issued is active. Upon detecting the occurrence of an event, the service-providing apparatus searches for client devices whose notification requests for the event have been registered, and notifies the occurrence of the event to a client device in which an event processing unit which can process the event is active.

This invention has as its object to attain strong security and to implement network solutions with high convenience and simplicity with low cost upon providing Web services. To this end, an information processing apparatus according to this invention has the following arrangement. That is, an information processing apparatus (1400) which includes a plurality of Web services (110 and the like) and a plurality of authentication/authorization services (107 and the like), is characterized by having an XML script unit (104) which holds an XML script (106) that describes association between information pertaining to respective Web services and information pertaining to the authentication/authorization services that execute authentication processing upon providing the respective Web services, and an arbitration service (103) which determines information pertaining to the authentication/authorization service described in association with the Web service requested by the user, and in that when the user is authenticated using the determined authentication/authorization service, the Web service requested by the user is provided.

This invention makes it possible to automatically install the device driver of only an intended network device on a network. Pieces of identification information for temporarily recognizing partners are input in both a client terminal and a network compliant device corresponding to a driver to be installed. When the identification information is input, the network compliant device multicasts a Hello message which describes the identification information and is necessary to enter the network. The client terminal receives the Hello message, and when information which matches the input identification information is described in the Hello message, shifts to a process based on UPnP. When the client terminal receives a Hello message not containing any description which matches the identification information, it does not notify the OS of the message.

An information processing apparatus which can communicate via a network with an external information processing apparatus which issues a disconnection notification based on disconnection from the network is provided with managing means for managing fixed identification information added to the external information processing apparatus and variable identification information added to the external information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus includes obtaining means for obtaining the fixed identification information and the variable identification information from the external information processing apparatus; discriminating means for discriminating whether the variable identification information obtained by the obtaining means coincides with the variable identification information managed by the managing means and whether the fixed identification information obtained by the obtaining means coincides with the fixed identification information managed by the managing means; and setting means for, if the discriminating means discriminates that, although the fixed identification information obtained by the obtaining means coincides with the fixed identification information managed by the managing means, the variable identification information obtained by the obtaining means does not coincide with the variable identification information managed by the managing means, setting the variable identification information obtained by the obtaining means in a control program that controls the external information processing apparatus having the fixed identification information.

摘要:
An actuator driving apparatus comprises the following. A start signal generator generates a start signal having a frequency substantially equal to the resonance frequency of the movable portion of an actuator. A rock detector detects rock of the movable portion. A drive timing signal generator generates a drive timing signal based on the output of the rock detector. A switch is connected to the start signal generator and drive timing signal generator for selectively transmitting their outputs to a section arranged in a subsequent stage. A drive signal generator generates a drive signal based on the output of the switch, and supplies it to the actuator. A superposition preventing section prevents a frequency component of a frequency substantially equal to the resonance frequency from being superposed upon the output of the rock detector. The apparatus performs driving according to the rocking state of the movable portion, by switching the switch.
