Abstract
An information-processing apparatus includes a communication unit that transmits a first command to register in a memory a service provided by an application using a first communicative method. The communication unit transmits a second command to register in the memory a service indicator of the service using a second communicative method different from the first communicative method.
Claims22
A first information processing apparatus, comprising:
- a display device;
- and
- circuitry configured to:
- receive, from a second information processing apparatus, a first request to communicate by a first communication method;
- transmit first information to the second information processing apparatus, wherein the first information corresponds to a service provided by an application;
- receive, from the second information processing apparatus, service registration data, based on the first information;
- generate a first command based on the service registration data;
- register the service in a memory based on execution of the first command by the first communication method;
- receive, from the second information processing apparatus, a second request to switch from the first communication method to a second communication method,
- wherein the second communication method is different from the first communication method;
- receive a second command from the second information processing apparatus;
- write, in the memory, a name of the registered service, wherein
- the name is written in the memory based on execution of the second command, and
- the memory includes a plurality of names of registered services;
- identify, from the memory, the name of the registered service;
- and
- control the display device to:
- display the name of the registered service, wherein the name of the registered service is displayed based on the identification of the name of the registered service;
- and
- display a portion of the plurality of names of the registered services in a layered manner.
