Information processing apparatus, information processing method, and recording medium

An information processing method comprising:

• determining whether data, which are read by near field wireless communications, correspond to data that are read in a peer-to-peer mode in the near field wireless communications;
• identifying an application that can use the data based on attribute information of the data in a case where it is determined that the data correspond to the data that are read in the peer-to-peer mode;
• identifying an application that can use the data based on a communication method used when the data are read in a case where it is determined that the data do not correspond to the data that are read in the peer-to-peer mode;
• performing processing so that the application that is identified based on the attribute information of the data or the application identified based on the communication method used when the data are read can use the data;
• identifying the application that can use the data from a plurality of applications;
• and
• determining priority of execution of the application from among the plurality of applications based on a predetermined priority order related to use of the applications, wherein
• in a case where no predetermined priority order related to use of the applications is provided, sending a notification to two or more applications from among the plurality of applications that can handle the communication method of the read data that the read data is available, and the two or more applications sequentially acquiring the read data.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a computer-readable program causing a computer to execute an information processing method comprising:

• determining whether data, which are read by near field wireless communications, correspond to data that are read in a peer-to-peer mode in the near field wireless communications;
• identifying an application that can use the data based on attribute information of the data in a case where it is determined that the data correspond to the data that are read in the peer-to-peer mode;
• identifying an application that can use the data based on a communication method used when the data are read in a case where it is determined that the data do not correspond to the data that are read in the peer-to-peer mode;
• performing processing so that the application that is identified based on the attribute information of the data or the application identified based on the communication method used when the data are read can use the data;
• and
• identifying the application that can use the data from a plurality of applications;
• and
• determining priority of execution of the application from among the plurality of applications based on a predetermined priority order related to use of the applications, wherein
• in a case where no predetermined priority order related to use of the applications is provided, sending a notification to two or more applications from among the plurality of applications that can handle the communication method of the read data that the read data is available, and the two or more applications sequentially acquiring the read data.
