An apparatus, system, and method, each of which: stores in a memory information relating to a plurality of forms each issued by a first user; receives, from a first terminal of the first user, a request for applying a service based on a particular form of the plurality of forms, and an identifier of the particular form; and transmits a request for applying the service and the identifier of the particular form to a second terminal.

Server system, communication system, and method of intermediating communication

An apparatus, system, and method, each of which: receives, from a user, condition information indicating a condition for determining a service to be provided to the user; selects, from among a plurality of forms of the user, one or more particular forms that meet the condition for determining a service, as a form to be used for applying the service; and controls a display to display a user interface, the user interface including future projection information of the user after provision of the service based on information on the particular forms.

Apparatus, system, and method of controlling display

An apparatus for drawing an image on a development-view image of a structural object includes circuitry configured to display a first development-view image of the structural object captured at a first time, a first diagnosis target element image drawn for at least a part of a diagnosis target in the first development-view image, and a second development-view image of the structural object captured at a second time later than the first time superimposed one to another; receive a drawing of a second diagnosis target element image for at least a part of the diagnosis target in the second development-view image captured at the second time; and store first position information indicating a position of the first diagnosis target element image in the first development-view image and second position information indicating a position of the second diagnosis target element image in the second development-view image in association with each other.

Apparatus for diagnosing and recording defects in structural objects

A shared terminal for displaying an image to be viewed by a plurality of users on a display is provided. The shared terminal includes circuitry to receive an instruction to turn on the shared terminal according to operation of a power switch, and determine whether login authentication and redisplay of a previously-displayed image are individually set. The previously-displayed image is an image that has been previously displayed when the circuitry receives an instruction to turn off the shared terminal. The circuitry further causes the display to redisplay the previously-displayed image in response to the instruction to turn on, based on a determination that the login authentication is not set and the redisplay of the previously-displayed image is set.

Shared terminal, communication system, and display control method, and recording medium

A communication terminal receives first terminal identification information for identifying a first communication terminal from a second mobile terminal, after the second mobile terminal has received the first terminal identification information from a first mobile terminal through a first communication session, the first mobile terminal being a mobile terminal that has obtained the first terminal identification information from the first communication terminal, determines the first communication terminal identified with the first terminal identification information as a communication destination, and starts communicating with the first communication terminal through a second communication session.

Communication terminal, communication system, communication method, and recording medium

A communication terminal reads, from a removable memory, user-specific application information indicating one or more of the plurality of applications that are allowed for use by a specific user, and transmits a request for address information that includes application identification information of each one of one or more applications that are allowed for use by the specific user at the communication terminal to obtain address information associated with the application identification information.

Communication terminal, communication management system, communication management method, and recording medium storing communication management program

A relay device is communicable with a communication management system that stores relay device identification information for identifying a relay device capable of communicating with a communication terminal using a first communications protocol, in association with configuration data that allows the communication terminal to communicate using a second communications protocol. In response to a configuration data request received from a communication terminal using the first communications protocol, the relay device transmits relay device identification information to the communication management system to obtain configuration data associated with the relay device identification information, and transmits the configuration data to the communication terminal.

Communication management system, relay device, communication control system, communication system, communication method, and recording medium storing communication control program

An information processing apparatus is connected via a network to both an MFP and a virtual-space management server that manages a virtual space that contains a virtual device that is created by virtualizing the MFP. The information processing apparatus includes a display control unit that displays map information on a display unit, wherein a device symbol that corresponds to the MFP is present in the map information at a position corresponding to the position of the MFP in the real world; a receiving unit that receives a selected device symbol in the map information; an output control unit that outputs image data to either a first data storage unit of the MFP that corresponds to the selected device symbol or to a second data storage unit for the virtual device that is created by virtualizing the MFP and corresponds to the selected device symbol.
