Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for attentive listening in multiple contemporaneous meetings. The method identifies a set of keywords designated by a host of a meeting. Remarks in a set of sub-meetings of the meeting are monitored. One or more remarks of interest are identified which match one or more keywords within the remarks of a sub-meeting of the set of sub-meetings. Each sub-meeting has a meeting designation. The one or more remarks of interest are determined to exceed an interest threshold. The method presents the meeting designation and a remark indication to the host in response to determining the one or more remarks of interest exceed the interest threshold.

Abstract: Supplier-specific data of material items are extracted from data of various material items used for the manufacture of a product. Tabular data having a structure that allows various pieces of environment consideration condition information about the extracted data to be input is created by using general-purpose spreadsheet software. The tabular data is laid out to locate an item whose contents are likely to change at an end of a table so as to minimize a change in data structure in the event of a change in contents of environment consideration condition items. The tabular data is provided to the supplier. Environment consideration condition information about each material item is acquired by using the tabular data containing the environment consideration condition information added to the tabular data on the supplier side.
