ABSTRACT:
An information processing device and an information processing method using fingerprint matching lighten the burden imposed the user in suspension/resumption of use of the device, and enable suspension/resumption to be performed smoothly when a plurality of users share the identical information processing device and when a plurality of users have respective individual information (to what extent of the electronic book the user reads to be progressed, etc) in connection with the information processing device. User is identified according to inputted fingerprint. When use of the device is suspended, individual information (for instance, work progressive information, work environmental information, work historical information) of the user regarding the information processing device is associated with the user to preserve, while when use of the device is resumed, identified individual information to the user preserved corresponding to the user is selected to be provided to the user.
