Disclosed here is an information processing system capable of recognizing actions and circumstances of a user with respect to both space and time as a "situation" to recognize the user's request using a plurality of sensing nodes that work cooperatively with each another, thereby responding autonomously to the user's request according to the recognition results. The plurality of sensing nodes and a responding device are disposed in a target space to build up a network for recognizing the situation in the target space. And, a plurality of recognition means are used to recognize the situation with respect to both space and time related to the existence of the user. And, an integral processing portion (master) is selected from among the plurality of sensing nodes, thereby dispersing the system load. If there are a plurality of users, the system can make recognition in accordance with the request of each of those users.
