Abstract
A device interfacer detects asynchronously occurring changes in function attributes in a device, and transmits the change attribute data to a database system. Then, a database system writes the changes to the database in a memory or an external storage device. A change point detection unit monitors the changes in the attribute record specified in the database, and asynchronously generates events for an object management software or the device interfacer corresponding to a change when any change occurs in the attribute record.
