Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a receiver, a sender, and a setter. The receiver receives a setting request to set an access right to access content for a user. The sender sends a voting request to a user authorized to access the content. The voting request is a request to vote upon whether to accept the setting request. The setter executes calculation processing on information received in response to the voting request and sets the access right if a result of the calculation processing satisfies a predetermined condition.

Claims (19)

1 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

a receiver that receives a setting request to set an access right to access content for a user;

a sender that sends a voting request to a user authorized to access the content, the voting request being a request to vote upon whether to accept the setting request; and

a setter that executes calculation processing on information received in response to the voting request and sets the access right if a result of the calculation processing satisfies a predetermined condition.

2 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, among users authorized to access the content, the sender sends the voting request to a user having an attribute which satisfies a predetermined condition.

3 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein, among the users authorized to access the content, the sender sends the voting request to a user whose network connecting state is online.

4 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, when executing the calculation processing on the received information, the setter applies a weight to the received information in accordance with a relationship between an attribute of a user corresponding to the setting request and an attribute of a user corresponding to the received information.

5 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the setter applies the weight to the received information in accordance with a distance between the user corresponding to the setting request and the user corresponding to the received information.

6 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the setter changes the predetermined condition in accordance with an attribute of the content.

7 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the setter sets the access right by using the result of the calculation processing if an attribute of the content satisfies a predetermined second condition.

8 . The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, among a plurality of calculation expressions, the setter executes the calculation processing by using a calculation expression corresponding to an attribute of the content.

9 . A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process, the process comprising:

receiving a setting request to set an access right to access content for a user;

sending a voting request to a user authorized to access the content, the voting request being a request to vote upon whether to accept the setting request; and

executing calculation processing on information received in response to the voting request and setting the access right if a result of the calculation processing satisfies a predetermined condition.

10 . An information processing apparatus comprising:

receiving means for receiving a setting request to set an access right to access content for a user;

sending means for sending a voting request to a user authorized to access the content, the voting request being a request to vote upon whether to accept the setting request; and

setting means for executing calculation processing on information received in response to the voting request and for setting the access right if a result of the calculation processing satisfies a predetermined condition.
