INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problem of a conventional information processing system, which may leak confidential information during communication between a client device and a server device. SOLUTION: The information processing system includes a server device and at least one client device. The server device retrieves template sentence information associated with a keyword included in request information from the client device, and transmits resultant response information to the client device. The client device transmits the request information including the keyword to the server device, acquires description sentence information by receiving the response information to the request information, and prepares a patent application document that is information on a patent application including the description sentence information. In the information processing system, only minimum information accumulated in the client device is transmitted to the server device, to thereby prevent leakage of confidential information.
