Abstract: Provided is a plan coordination apparatus that swiftly coordinates plans between business operators regardless of presence or absence of product order placement/receipt-relation. The plan coordination apparatus includes a value chain management unit and a scheduling unit. The value chain management unit prepares value chain data, recalculates reliability of order placement/receipt-relation between the business operators each time a new track record of product order placement/receipt-relation is collected, updates the reliability, and assigns the reliability to the edge. The scheduling unit accepts a plan alteration request from one of the business operators to be managed, refers to automatically adjustable volumes of the product data, the value chain data, and the plan data, judges whether a related business operator can alter the plan, identifies an alternative business operator, gives a notification of the alteration of the plan to the business operator, and alters the plan data.

Abstract: An information asset management system in a network environment includes a monitoring program 11 that monitors operation events performed by users and creates terminal logs 12, a terminal log collection program 21 that stores an integrated log 22 created by collecting the terminal logs 12, and a correlation analysis program 31 that analyzes the whereabouts of information assets using the integrated log 22. When the user exports an information asset from the network environment and when the user imports the information asset into the network environment, the monitoring program 11 monitors these export and import events including feature values of the information assets. The correlation analysis program 31 compares a pre-export feature value of each information asset with a post-import feature value of each information asset to determine whether the information assets are identical and reports a list of information assets in the organization.

Abstract: In an information control flow system, when a process reads a file with a second attribute after being through for reading of a file with a first attribute, when the second attribute is higher in level than the first attribute, a user is allowed to select first control with which the file with the second attribute is not made open, second control with which the file with the second attribute is made open after the file with the first attribute is closed, or third control with which the file with the second attribute is made open after the file with the first attribute is opened again for read-only purpose. When the user selects the first control, the first attribute is provided to a file to be written, and when the user selects the second or third control, the second attribute is provided to a file to be written.

Abstract: To identify a storage medium storing an electronic file, as a location of the electronic file, and to detect a location move of a file stemming from a replacement of a storage medium, a file management system 100 includes a log acquisition unit 110: detecting an event having occurred on a file stored in a storage medium; checking, with a table, pieces of information of logical paths of locations of the file before and after the event; identifying pieces of medium identification information of storage media in which the file is located before and after the event are identified; and then storing the pieces of medium identification information in a terminal log database as location information of the file.
