Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An information processing apparatus includes a storage controller and a display controller. The storage controller performs control when storing of data is accepted from an unregistered user yet to be registered in advance. The control is performed to store the accepted data in association with identification information that enables the unregistered user to be discriminated from a different unregistered user. The display controller performs control when the unregistered user performs access to the information processing apparatus. The control is performed to switch data to be displayed to the unregistered user performing the access. The data is switched by using the identification information.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An information processing apparatus comprising: a storage controller that performs control when storing of data is accepted from an unregistered user yet to be registered in advance, the control being performed to store the accepted data in association with identification information that enables the unregistered user to be identified to be different from a different unregistered user; and a display controller that performs control when the unregistered user performs access to the information processing apparatus, the control being performed to change data to be displayed to the unregistered user performing the access, the data being changed from first data to second data, the second data being only data stored in association with the identification information regarding the unregistered user, the first data being displayed only to a registered user, wherein when the registered user and the unregistered user attempt to gain access to the information processing apparatus and when the display controller displays a document file to a corresponding one of the unregistered user and the registered user, the display controller displays a file name before the change to the unregistered user and displays a file name after the change to the registered user. 2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the identification information is URL information that varies on a per unregistered-user basis and that is transmitted as a place for storing the data to the unregistered user. 3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the URL information is generated to vary on the per unregistered-user basis by including randomly generated information in the URL information. 4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the URL information is generated to vary on the per unregistered-user basis by including destination information in the URL information, the destination information being used when the URL information is transmitted to the unregistered user. 5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the identification information is a cookie issued when the unregistered user performs the access. 6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the identification information is a terminal identification number of a terminal used when the unregistered user performs the access. 7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the identification information is location information regarding a terminal used when the unregistered user performs the access. 8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the storage controller performs control to change a name of the data accepted from the unregistered user and to store the data. 9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the storage controller changes the name of the data accepted from the unregistered user, the name of the data being changed by adding, to the name of the data accepted from the unregistered user, information based on destination information used when URL information is transmitted to the unregistered user, the URL information being the identification information and varying on a per unregistered-user basis. 10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the storage controller changes the name of the data accepted from the unregistered user, the name of the data being changed by adding, to the name of the data accepted from the unregistered user, information varying on a per destination basis, the unregistered user having been assigned a destination of a data storing request transmitted to the unregistered user. 11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the storage controller changes the name of the data accepted from the unregistered user, the name of the data being changed by adding, to the name of the data accepted from the unregistered user, information varying on a per destination basis and every time data storing is accepted, the unregistered user having been assigned a destination of a data storing request transmitted to the unregistered user. 12. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein when the unregistered user, the different unregistered user, or a registered user performs the access, and when the display controller displays data to a corresponding one of the unregistered user, the different unregistered user, and the registered user, the display controller displays the name yet to be changed to the unregistered user or the different unregistered user, and the display controller displays a changed name to the registered user. 13. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising: performing control when storing of data is accepted from an unregistered user yet to be registered in advance, the control being performed to store the accepted data in association with identification information that enables the unregistered user to be identified to be different from a different unregistered user; and performing control when the unregistered user performs access to the information processing apparatus, the control being performed to change data to be displayed to the unregistered user performing the access, the data being changed from first data to second data, the second data being only data stored in association with the identification information regarding the unregistered user the first data being displayed only to a registered user, wherein when the registered user and the unregistered user attempt to gain access to the information processing apparatus and when the display controller displays a document file to a corresponding one of the unregistered user and the registered user, the process performs control to display a file name before the change to the unregistered user and display a file name after the change to the registered user. 14. An information processing apparatus comprising: means for performing control when storing of data is accepted from an unregistered user yet to be registered in advance, the control being performed to store the accepted data in association with identification information that enables the unregistered user to be identified to be different from a different unregistered user; and means for performing control when the unregistered user performs access to the information processing apparatus, the control being performed to change data to be displayed to the unregistered user performing the access, the data being changed from first data to second data, the second data being only data stored in association with the identification information regarding the unregistered user the first data being displayed only to a registered user, wherein when the registered user and the unregistered user attempt to gain access to the information processing apparatus and when the means for performing control when the unregistered user performs access to the information processing apparatus displays a document file to a corresponding one of the unregistered user and the registered user, displays a file name before the change to the unregistered user and displays a file name after the change to the registered user.
