Abstract
The controller communicable with a second controller include circuitry configured to: execute a processing to operate a first machine in collaboration with a second machine controlled by the second controller in a real space; modify the processing in response to determining that, instead of controlling the second machine, the second controller controls a virtual second machine that simulates operations of the second machine in a virtual space; and execute the modified processing to operate the first machine in the real space in collaboration with the virtual second machine that operates in the virtual space.
