Abstract
An information processing system is capable of communicating with an external apparatus via a network. The information processing system is capable of operating in at least three operation modes including: a first mode; a second mode, which consumes less power than the first mode; and a third mode, which consumes less power than the second mode and where the communication via the network is not performed. The information processing system includes a mode control section and a second mode processing section. The mode control section, when the information processing system operates in the third mode, shifts the operation mode to the second mode periodically or in accordance with a predetermined time schedule. The second mode processing section performs a communication process via the network as information processing in the second mode.
