An information processing system includes a first information processing terminal which can be connected to an external network and a second information processing terminal which receives data from the external network through the first information processing terminal. The first information processing terminal stands by in a sleep mode, and when a predetermined condition is satisfied, it cancels the sleep mode and transmits data from the external network to the second information processing terminal.

Information processing system, non-transitory storage medium encoded with computer readable information processing program, information processing method, and information processing terminal

When a portable information terminal operates in an unused state, a predetermined access point is searched for. As a result, when the predetermined access point is detected, a connection to the predetermined access point is established, and a predetermined data communication process is performed.

Portable information terminal using near field communication

Access from a communication terminal apparatus is received, and identification information that enables identification of a position of a communication terminal apparatus from which the access has been received and transmission data are acquired from the communication terminal apparatus, and are stored in a storage unit. Then, if access has been received from a communication terminal apparatus next and thereafter, the transmission data stored in the storage unit is transmitted to the communication terminal apparatus on the basis of identification information that enables identification of a position of the communication terminal apparatus.

Storage medium having stored therein communication program, information processing apparatus, communication terminal apparatus, communication system, and communication method

An example portable information terminal has a used and an unused state and includes a wireless communication module configured to search for a predetermined access point at least when the portable information terminal operates in the unused state and a processor configured to, when the predetermined access point is detected, connect to the predetermined access point and perform a data communication process.

Portable information system

First, one or more tasks each representing process contents of transmission or reception of data are set. Next, an access point is searched for, and a connection to the access point is performed if the access point is found. Then, before the one or more tasks are executed via the access point, an execution control parameter, for at least one of the one or more tasks, which indicates at least one of an execution instruction, whether or not to execute the task, and an execution priority, is obtained in accordance with an access point identifier. Then, transmission or reception of data is performed via the access point by executing at least one of the one or more tasks on the basis of the execution control parameter.
