<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide information accurately in accordance with time at when a user starts issuing a request through a network. <P>SOLUTION: An information server apparatus 116 includes a communication portion 118 receiving a request for getting information including a set of information source specifying information and time specifying information from a client, a user request information analyzing portion 122 analyzing the set of information source specifying information and time specifying information, and a table reference portion 129 for selecting information based on the result of analysis. The communication portion 118 returns the selected information to the client. The client adds the time when a user starts issuing a request for getting information to the request and transmits it to the information server apparatus. Thus, even if the requests arrive at the information server apparatus 116 earlier and later because of network delay, the order can be rightly recognized at the information server apparatus 116. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
