Abstract
A service control apparatus () according to the present disclosure includes: a communication unit () configured to receive a first communication pattern that defines a timing of communication between a service providing apparatus () and a communication terminal () from the service providing apparatus () and a second communication pattern that defines a timing of communication between a service providing apparatus () and the communication terminal () from the service providing apparatus (); and a controller () configured to determine whether the first communication pattern and the second communication pattern indicate communication timings different from each other. When the first communication pattern and the second communication pattern indicate communication timings different from each other, the communication unit () transmits a message to the second service providing apparatus () requesting it to change its communication pattern to the first communication pattern.
