A server apparatus is configured to receive, from the one client apparatus, a user identifier and a client identifier, determine whether or not the one client apparatus is a high-probability client apparatus, if it is determined that the one client apparatus is not the high-probability client apparatus, determine a high-probability function, determine whether or not differential operation information is present, the differential operation information being information indicating an operation different from an operation to be input in an operation device of the high-probability client apparatus when the high-probability client apparatus executes the high-probability function, out of an operation to be input in an operation device of the one client apparatus when the one client apparatus executes the high-probability function, and if it is determined that the differential operation information is present, send the differential operation information to the one client apparatus.

Systems and methods of managing print procurement systems are disclosed herein. An example method includes displaying, ordering information for a fixed plurality of items that include a respective user interface (UI) object for each item. The fixed plurality of items are associated with a first time period that spans a start date and an end date for indicating an interest level in items of the fixed plurality of items. The respective UI objects includes a visual representation of an aggregate interest level for each item during the first time period as compared to a threshold interest level for each item. While displaying the respective UI objects, the method includes receiving a first indication that a second user is modifying ordering information for a first item and updating a first UI object for the first item to indicate that the second user is modifying ordering information for the first item.

An information processing apparatus includes a communication unit, an information acquiring unit, a setting unit, and a controller. The communication unit communicatively connects with a terminal device having a sensor. The information acquiring unit acquires information detected by the sensor from the terminal device communicatively connected via the communication unit. The setting unit sets a preferential terminal device to be preferentially connected with the communication unit. The controller performs control to connect with the preferential terminal device preferentially over a terminal device that is not a preferential terminal device within a capacity range of the communication unit.

A job management server, which is connected to a Web application server and a job processing apparatus via a network, comprises: a registration unit which registers, when a job received from the Web application server is added with information indicating that a request source of the job is the job processing apparatus, the job in a first job queue, and to register, when the job is not added with the information, the job in a second job queue having a lower priority than the first job queue; and a transmission unit which transmits the job registered in the first job queue in response to a request from the job processing apparatus while a user utilizes a Web application via the job processing apparatus.

An information processing apparatus includes a setting unit that, in a case where plural keyword candidates representing information on an acquisition target are included in a document, sets a target keyword from the keyword candidates in accordance with priority information of defining a keyword to be preferentially used as the target keyword representing an item of the information on the acquisition target among the keyword candidates, an extraction unit that extracts a character string corresponding to the target keyword set by the setting unit, from the document, and an output unit that outputs the character string corresponding to the target keyword, which is extracted by the extraction unit.

An image processing apparatus includes: a volatile storage device; a hardware processor that executes an information process using the volatile storage device; and a nonvolatile storage device that stores data to be used for the information process, wherein in response to a condition that makes it impossible to continue the information process being satisfied while the information process is being executed, the hardware processor generates a snapshot of the volatile storage device and stores the snapshot in an area of the nonvolatile storage device having a use other than snapshot storage, and in response to a condition that makes it possible to resume the information process being satisfied, the hardware processor reads the snapshot from the nonvolatile storage device and resumes the information process.

Provided is a document-management server that controls the amount of change notifications sent to an administrator of an image-processing server in the case where metadata necessary for system cooperation is changed. The image-processing server acquires an attribute of specific metadata from document data and transmits the attribute together with the document data. The document-management server manages the document data based on the attribute of the specific metadata transmitted from the image-processing server. A metadata-setting-receiving unit receives a change in the specific metadata. A notification-priority-adding unit adds a notification priority to the specific metadata for which a change is received by the metadata-setting-receiving unit. A change-notifying unit creates a change notification for informing that the specific metadata has been changed, and transmits the created change notification to an administrator of the image-processing server at a transmission timing based on the notification priority.
