INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, AND CONTROL METHOD AND CONTROL PROGRAM THEREFOR

摘要

A system of this invention is directed to an information processing system that acquires a processing result at a desired timing without interrupting execution of an application even if communication disconnection occurs when requesting another information processing apparatus to execute information processing. The information processing system includes a first information processing apparatus and a second information processing apparatus which are connected to each other for communication. In response to a request of information processing from the first information processing apparatus to the second information processing apparatus, access information used to access a processing result storage in which the second information processing apparatus stores a result of the information processing is generated and notified to the first information processing apparatus. The second information processing apparatus continues executing the information processing during communication disconnection between the first information processing apparatus and the second information processing apparatus, stores the result of the information processing in the processing result storage to be accessed based on the access information, and provides the result of the information processing stored in the processing result storage in response to an access based on the access information from the first information processing apparatus.
