ABSTRACT:
An information acquiring unit checks operation command information issued to the multiple information processing apparatuses over the network in order to understand the totality of the operation command information in the network. The state of utilization of each information processing apparatus is analyzed based on the operation command information. Where a utilization state analyzing unit is provided in an information processing apparatus, the utilization state analyzing unit also checks the state of utilization of its own information processing apparatus. Prompt information that prompts the issuance of operation commands to an underutilized information processing apparatus is then issued. Consequently, the level of utilization of that information processing apparatus may be increased.
