Abstract
An information processing apparatus includes: a storage block configured to store a first region as part of a layer structure; an execution block which, in response to a designation command transmitted by a communication apparatus to designate the creation of a second region as a lower layer of the first region, performs a region creation process for creating the second region as the lower layer of the first region; and a transmission block which, if the region creation process is stopped, then transmits first information indicating whether or not the second region is already created to the communication apparatus, in response to a request from the communication apparatus.
