Abstract: An information management apparatus includes the following elements. A generator generates a circulation document including an e-document and document identification information thereof. A job information registration section extracts and registers job information, and also specifies and registers a due date of the job. A history information registration section registers the obtained document identification information and operation history information indicating a type and a time of operation performed on the circulation document. An output section specifies document identification information associated with job information that is at least partially identical to the job information associated with the obtained document identification information and associated with operation history information indicating that a job has been completed.

Abstract: There is provided a document processing method in which a document is created by applying one or more templates to multiple structured documents stored in a folder among a group of folders having a hierarchical structure in a document database, the method including acquiring a first structured document including multiple document elements forming a structure, acquiring information of a hierarchical structure of the folders in the document database, creating integrated structure information by merging the structure of the document elements of the first structured document into a position of a folder, in the hierarchical structure formed by the folders, in which the first structured document is stored, and applying a template to the integrated structure information.

Abstract: A first information processing apparatus includes a registration unit that receives, from an information processing apparatus, information of a derivation relationship in which a first document is a parent and a second document generated as a result of an operation performed with respect to the first document is a child and registers the information in a storage unit, and a search result output unit that, in accordance with a search instruction that specifies a designated document and a search condition including a condition that defines a derivation relationship that should exist between the designated document and a search subject document, outputs, as a search result, information concerning a document that satisfies the search condition among documents included in derivation relationships registered in the storage unit.

Abstract: Without using a script that describes a procedure, document parts are extracted from structured documents and inserted or substituted in a template to synthesize a document. An extraction instruction to retrieve document parts, and repetitive duplication and insertion/substitution instructions are provided to the structured documents. Therefore, document part retrieval, repetitive duplication, and a document part (location) in which a document part is to be inserted or substituted are specified, and instructions retrieved from plural inputted structured documents are dynamically synthesized to create a document processing description, so that a document processing description script becomes unnecessary. Consequently, the inconvenience of managing scripts in addition to original documents is eliminated.

Abstract: An image information coding system is disclosed which analyzes an input image and which can make exact image quality control even when the input image has been subjected to coding and decoding in the previous stage. A coded image information decoding unit decodes coded image information and outputs both code attribute information and decoded image information. An image information dividing unit divides the decoded image information into rectangular regions consisting of a predetermined number pixels and outputs divided image information. An image information analyzing unit measures a statistic of the divided image information while making reference to the code attribute information and outputs image quality control information taking coding and decoding conditions in the previous stage into account.
