A correlation element 134 correlates a source device with a destination device according to an instruction given by the user. A decision element 122 determines whether or not a certain combination of device classes is operable as a composite device. In the case of the affirmative answer, a determination element 136 identifies the type of the composite device and specifies a user interface for operating the composite device. A data output element 132 then displays the specified user interface in a window on a monitor 170 at a specific timing. This arrangement effectively improves the operatability of the device control.
A device control apparatus that enables control of a source device, which is a transmitter of data, and a destination device, which is a receiver of data, said device control apparatus comprising:
A device control system comprising a source device, which is a transmitter of data, a destination device, which is a receiver of data, and a device control apparatus that enables control of the source device and the destination device,
