Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2010/082538
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are an apparatus, a method, and a computer program for supporting a data linkage capable of flexibly linking a plurality of applications without reducing a degree of freedom in application design. When a linkage destination application is linked to another application, it is judged whether or not meta-information is provided to only one of an output parameter of the other application and an input parameter of the linkage destination application. If it is judged that the meta-information is provided to only one of them, the meta-information provided to the one is provided to the other as the meta-information. When the meter information provided as the meta-information of the other is identical to the meta-information provided to the output parameter of the linkage destination application or the input parameter of the linkage destination application, the applications are linked.
