Abstract
According to one embodiment, a communication device capable of communicating with each of a control device and a processing device through a network includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry creates a job upon receiving a first request from the control device, the first request designating a content of a process that is executed by the processing device, the job containing information to instruct the processing device to execute the process and a first time limit relevant to the process. The processing circuitry controls transition among a plurality of states of the job. The processing circuitry controls, upon receiving a second request for the job from the processing device or the control device, execution of the second request, based on the first time limit and the state of the job.
