Abstract
A determination unit determines whether a server is an apparatus configured with an information processing apparatus in an integrated manner, and according to a result of the determination of the determination unit, a communication connection between the server and the information processing apparatus is controlled, and the transition of a power state is controlled.
Claims18
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a memory device that stores a set of instructions;
- and
- at least one processor that executes the instructions to:
- determine whether or not the information processing apparatus is an apparatus which requires, as a transition condition of the apparatus to a power saving state, that a server becomes able to transition to the power saving state, the server being for communicating with the information processing apparatus;
- and
- regarding keeping of a communication connection between the information processing apparatus and the server, perform different types of control between a case where it is determined that the information processing apparatus is the apparatus which requires, as the transition condition to the power saving state, that the server becomes able to transition to the power saving state, and a case where it is determined that the information processing apparatus is not the apparatus which requires, as the transition condition to the power saving state, that the server becomes able to transition to the power saving state.

An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a memory device that stores a set of instructions;
- and
- at least one processor that executes the instructions to:
- execute a process of establishing a communication connection with a server;
- determine whether or not the information processing apparatus is an apparatus which requires, as a transition condition of the apparatus to a power saving state, that a server becomes able to transition to the power saving state, the server being for communicating with the information processing apparatus;
- and
- according to a result of the determination,
- notify the server of information for causing the server to keep the established communication connection or information for causing the server to release the established communication connection.
