The objective of this invention is to allow the user to invoke a composite remote procedure by connecting remote procedures that are managed on networks in distribution with each other, or define a new remote procedure.A remote procedure client receives a procedure definition hypertext from a remote procedure server, references procedure specifications of predefined remote procedures if necessary, and defines a new remote procedure by combining the predefined procedures. The procedure definition is sent with a procedure definition request to the remote procedure server and is stored. When the defined new procedure is invoked, a procedure execution unit executes the procedure under the control of a remote procedure manager. When an argument of the procedure is a hyperlink, the procedure execution unit executes at first a procedure pointed by the hypelink, and then restarts the original procedure. When the procedure pointed by the hyperlink is a composite procedure, the procedure is executed after the composite procedure is expanded by referencing procedure definitions.
