Abstract
A first information processing device and a second information processing device are connected to the first information processing device by way of a network. A communicator is provided in the first information processing device and adapted to establish communications with the second information processing device. A communications protocol is provided in the second information processing device, and configured to transmit a search signal indicative of a searched object to the network. The communicator is adapted to transmit a response indicative of a search result with respect to the search signal to the second information processing device.
Claims14
An information processing system, comprising:
- a first information processing device;
- a second information processing device, connected to the first information processing device by way of a network;
- a communicator, provided in the first information processing device and adapted to establish communications with the second information processing device;
- and
- a communications protocol, provided in the second information processing device, and configured to transmit a search signal indicative of a searched object to the network,
- wherein the communicator is adapted to transmit a response indicative of a search result with respect to the search signal to the second information processing device.
An information processing device adapted to be connected to a network, comprising:
- an instruction provider, adapted to provide a first instruction including a searched object;
- a communications protocol, configured to transmit a search signal to the network in accordance with the first instruction, and adapted to receive a response indicative of a search result with respect to the search signal;
- and
- a display, adapted to display the search result.
An information processing device adapted to be connected to a network, comprising:
- an application;
- being installed in advance;
- and
- a communicator, adapted to receive a search signal indicative of a searched object from an external device connected to the information processing device by way of the network, to search the application as the searched object, and to transmit a response indicative of a search result with respect to the search signal to the external device.
An information processing method, comprising:
- connecting a first information processing device and a second information processing device by way of a network;
- causing the second information processing device to locate the first information processing device in the network and to search an application which has been installed in the first information processing device;
- causing the first information processing device to transmit a response indicative of a search result to the second information processing device;
- and
- causing the second information processing device to display the search result.
