13. A communication method performed by a first terminal and a second terminal that communicate data with each other through wireless communication, the communication method comprising:
executing, by the first terminal, one or more applications;
storing, in the second terminal, one or more pair information entries, wherein each pair information entry includes application data for any of a plurality of different applications and associated connection data;
in response to a request that includes an identified application for an application executed in the first terminal, transmitting, by the second terminal, second pair information that is based on the pair information entry that includes the application data which corresponds to the identified application included in the request; and
determining, by the first terminal, processing involved with data communication with the second terminal based on a result of comparison between third information that is associated with an application that is being executed on the first terminal and second information received from the second terminal.
