An instruction sheet making section of an instruction sheet editor
displays on a GUI icons of services capable of being executed by using a
service list sent from a service search server. Further, the instruction
sheet making section also displays logic icons of linking processing
patterns of the respective services. An instruction sheet making section
combines the services provided by one or more service processing sections
and makes an instruction sheet, by using service icons and logic icons
selected by a user, while referring to and utilizing I/F information sent
by the service processing section. Therefore, it is possible to easily
combine the services capable of being executed on a network and produce a
workflow.
