ABSTRACT:
A system for storing data on the history of use of programs consisting of a data processing apparatus and a program storage unit, such as a magnetic tape, which stores program-specific data. The data processing apparatus includes a user-specific credit data storage portion, a use decision portion, and a program use history storage portion which can store use history data derived from the program-specific data from the program storage unit or the user-specific credit data from the user-specific credit data storage portion. The program use history is accessible to proprietors of the programs so that charges can be based on actual use of the programs.
