Abstract
A receiving unit receives a device icon of an input/output device and device layout data including positional information of the device icon from a device-layout managing apparatus. A viewing unit displays a device layout diagram including a device list area and a map area, based on the received device icon and device layout data. An editing unit edits the device layout diagram based on a shift operation received by an input unit from a use, and generates the device layout data including the positional information of the device icon after a shift. A transmitting unit transmits the generated device layout data to the device-layout managing apparatus.
