Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide adaptation with improved contents for a data processing system such as a general computer by decentralizing an adapting function between a 1st and a 2nd data processing system according to information on session specification. SOLUTION: A client-side proxy 54 is used to incorporate the information on session specification in a request to be sent to a server data processing system 60. The client-side proxy 54 communicates with a server-side proxy 64. The server-side proxy 64 controls the decentralization of the adapting function according to user's taste and a policy and a rule which can be held in a center repository 30. The server-side proxy 64 obtains contents provided for the client data processing system 50 from a server application 62. Consequently, the problem of a specific user and the total problem of network management are both considered in the adaptation of the contents provided for the data processing system.
