Abstract: A storage unit stores rule information that includes information indicating a plurality of operations based on event data. A computing unit searches the rule information to find information indicating a first operation, information indicating an operation of a condition determination that is executable regardless of the result of the first operation, and information indicating a second operation that is associated with the condition determination and uses the result of the first operation. The computing unit generates control information for controlling the execution order of the operations such that the first operation is executed in accordance with the result of the condition determination and such that the second operation is executed after the first operation. When the event data is input, the computing unit executes an operation corresponding to the input event data, based on the control information.

Abstract: In a work-process tracking system, each of event-data collecting threads collects event data from each of work systems. A storing thread stores the event data collected in a database. When a termination instruction is received, a thread in operation is terminated. For example, when an instruction to start (or terminate) an event-data collecting process is received, a control unit initiates (or terminates) the event-data collecting thread. Similarly, when an instruction to start (or terminate) a storing process, the control unit initiates (or terminates) the storing thread.
