To improve versatility of a function in a client device.SOLUTION: A server device 1 to be connected to a client device 2 includes: a function providing unit 302 which provides at least one function, as a provision function, to the client device 2; a transmission unit 303 which transmits operation definition information defining operation of the provision function to the client device 2; and a receiving unit 304 which receives a part of the operation definition information selectively transmitted by the client device 2. The function providing unit 302 executes the provision function on the basis of the received part of the operation definition information.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】クライアント装置における機能の汎用性向上を提供する。【解決手段】クライアント装置２と接続可能なサーバ装置１であって、クライアント装置２に対して、少なくとも１つ以上の機能を提供機能として提供する機能提供部３０２と、提供機能の動作が定義された動作定義情報をクライアント装置２へ送信する送信部３０３と、クライアント装置２により選択的に送信された動作定義情報の一部を受信する受信部３０４とを備える。機能提供部３０２は、受信された動作定義情報の一部に基づいて、提供機能を実行する。【選択図】図３
