Abstract: An ID bridge service system manages a type and assurance of identity information required for provision of service by an application service system and a type and assurance of identity information managed by plural authentication service systems, and is provided with a selecting measure that selects an authentication service system that manages identity information corresponding to the identity information required for the provision of the service by the application service system out of the plural authentication service systems when a request for authentication is received from the application service system and a requesting measure that requests the selected authentication service system to authenticate.

Abstract: A connection destination determination device includes a control unit for performing an approval determination process to determine that a user authentication state in a connection destination request is approved if the user authentication state satisfies the user authentication state corresponding to a collaboration service. If the user authentication state is determined to be approved in the approval determination process, the control unit responds to a source of the connection destination determination request with the connection destination of service corresponding to the collaboration service which is the search key.

Abstract: An authentication collaboration server of an authentication collaboration system performs a secrecy calculation process using authentication information as input for an authentication process, generating secret authentication information for each piece of the authentication information. An authentication information verification server obtains and compares sets of the combination of secret authentication information generated by the authentication server, and a user ID identifying a user of a user terminal using the authentication information that is a source of the secret authentication information. The authentication information verification server extracts the plurality of pieces of authentication information that have been applied.

Abstract: A processing load on service is distributed to improve the availability of linkage service even if the details of the processing of the linkage service are unknown. A service dynamic linkage device (110) sequentially selects pieces of web service which can be executed on the basis of dependence relationship information having identified a web server which should have already been executed among pieces of web service included in a scenario, the execution of which has been requested from a user-side communication terminal (140), and repeatedly performs processing to be executed until there are no pieces of web service included in the scenario.

Abstract: A user interaction type service collaboration system, in which a user terminal calls Web service provisioning servers in sequence via a Web portal server and a service scenario execution server, and each Web service provisioning server carries out interaction processing with the user terminal, is provided with a callback control server having: a callback control part responding to reception, from the Web service provisioning server, of the callback request accompanied by a callback user ID, and transmitting an interaction processing start request to the user terminal using an ID identifying the user terminal or a session due to the user terminal; and a callback ID management part associating and managing IDs and callback user IDs and acquiring IDs corresponding to callback user IDs.

Abstract: A streaming data delivery system contrived to curtail the procedure until a session is established between a delivery server and a user terminal includes a delivery device, a server for provisional coupling, format conversion servers, a terminal, and a 3PCC device which implements Third Party Call Control. The 3PCC device obtains format information from the terminal and establishes a session between the terminal and the server for provisional coupling; also obtains data format information from the data delivery device and establishes a session between the delivery device and the server for provisional coupling; further selects a format conversion server, transfers the session between the delivery device and the server for provisional coupling into a session between the delivery device and the selected format conversion server, and transfers the session between the terminal and the server for provisional coupling into a session between the terminal and the selected format conversion server.

Abstract: An ID bridge service system manages a type and assurance of identity information required for provision of service by an application service system and a type and assurance of identity information managed by plural authentication service systems, and is provided with a selecting measure that selects an authentication service system that manages identity information corresponding to the identity information required for the provision of the service by the application service system out of the plural authentication service systems when a request for authentication is received from the application service system and a requesting measure that requests the selected authentication service system to authenticate.

Abstract: A method and a system for speeding up session establishment are provided, wherein the time required to establish a session is reduced, even in the case where a session management server requires a large amount of time to process respective functions required for establishing the session (such as making a decision regarding whether to permit or deny provision of a service, or generating a session key). The session management server is provided with means for conducting, in parallel, processing to issue processing requests for respective functions required for establishing a session (such as making a decision regarding whether to permit or deny provision of a service, or generating a session key) and processing to forward a communication message transmitted by a communications device or another session management server attempting to establish a session.

Abstract: An authentication server is dynamically changed in consideration of a user's situation, a kind of service used by the user and user's convenience. When a terminal device 1 is going to receive provision of service from a service providing server 2, an authentication intermediary server 4 selects an authentication server 3 among authentication servers 3 that satisfy selection conditions previously set by the user of the terminal device 1 such as presence information, priority, usage condition, service providing server conditions and the like, so that the user of the terminal device 1 undergo authentication by the selected authentication server 3.

Abstract: Technology is provided for easily converting data for use with a plurality of receiving devices. The structure-specific message generator of an information providing server generates reference information by converting the data structure of information received from a transmitting device into a data structure processable by a plurality of receiving devices. A SOAP notification generator then generates notification information for each of the receiving device by replacing information at predetermined parts in the generated reference information with receiving device-specific information.

Abstract: To provide a technology for enabling authentication according to a state of use of a device on a user side. When, on a communication device (10), a user requests a service providing server (16) to provide a service, an authentication server (17) acquires, from a presence server (19), presence information on a wireless terminal device (11), a softphone-equipped device (13), and a messenger-equipped device (15) held by the user requesting the service, selects an authentication method corresponding to the acquired presence information, and transmits a one-time password from an audio reproduction server (21) or an IM transmission server (22) to the wireless terminal device (11), the softphone-equipped device (13), or the messenger-equipped device (15).

Abstract: An access authorization system is provided, which can reduce the user wait time until the provision of a user-requested service. The access authorization system of the present invention specifies the next service to be provided to a UT (a client-side communication device) after the service currently being provided to the UT, and then executes process to make an authorization decision in advance regarding the next service with respect to the user of the UT, before the UT requests the next service.
