FIG. 6 is a sequence diagram for explaining processing in the client terminal 2a when the conference system according to the present embodiment accepts a cancel request during login processing. FIG. 7 is a sequence diagram for explaining processing in the conference system management server 1 when the conference system according to the present embodiment receives a cancel request during login processing.

  As shown in FIG. 6, in order for the user to use the conference system according to the present embodiment, first, authentication information is input to the authentication information input screen displayed on the display screen by a user operation on the client terminal 2a. There is a need. Here, a display example of the authentication information input screen is shown in FIG. FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a display example of the authentication information input screen according to the present embodiment. In the following description, the user A who operates the client terminal 2a and inputs authentication information on the authentication information input screen displayed on the display screen will be described as user A. In the following description, login means that the user who has input the authentication information can use the function provided by the conference system according to the present embodiment, and logout means that the login state is canceled. I decided to.

  When the user A operates the client terminal 2a to input the authentication information on the authentication information input screen as shown in FIG. 9 and press the “login” button (hereinafter referred to as “login operation”), the authentication information input unit 201 acquires the input authentication information (S601), generates a login event for starting the login process, and notifies the transmission unit 202 of the acquired authentication information and the generated login event (S602). That is, in the present embodiment, the authentication information input unit 201 functions as a login request unit. Further, in parallel with the processing in S602, the authentication information input unit 201 displays a screen during login processing for displaying a screen for notifying that login processing is in progress (hereinafter referred to as “login processing screen”). The information is generated, and the generated login processing screen display information is notified to the display control unit 206, whereby the login processing screen is displayed on the LCD 60 according to the login processing screen display information (S603). Then, the transmission unit 202 transmits the authentication information and the login event notified from the authentication information input unit 201 to the conference system management server 1 (S604). Hereinafter, the processes of S601 to S604 are collectively referred to as “login reception process”.

  Here, a display example of the login processing screen is shown in FIG. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a display example of the login processing screen displayed on the LCD 60 of the client terminal 2a according to the present embodiment. As shown in FIG. 10, a “cancel” button is arranged on the login processing screen displayed on the client terminal 2a according to the present embodiment, and when the “cancel” button is pressed by a user operation, The conference system according to the embodiment is configured to cancel an ongoing login process. The cancellation of the login process will be described later in the processes after S605.

  As described above, the conference system according to the present embodiment cancels the login process by pressing the “cancel” button on the login process screen displayed on the client terminal 2a even during the login process. Can be received and cancel processing can be performed. Therefore, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, even after the user A performs the login operation, the login can be performed only by pressing the “cancel” button on the login processing screen displayed on the client terminal 2a. Since the user A waits for the completion of the login process, that is, after logging in, the user A does not need to perform a logout operation to cancel the login state, and the cancel process is performed. Time can be shortened, and convenience for the user can be improved.

  When the authentication information and the login event are transmitted from the client terminal 2a, the conference system management server 1 receives the authentication information and the login event in the receiving unit 101, and notifies the authentication unit 102 of the received authentication information and the login event. (S701). When the authentication unit 102 is notified of the authentication information and the login event, the authentication unit 102 refers to the authentication information management Tb stored in the user information storage unit 106 based on the authentication information notified from the reception unit 101. Login authentication is performed to authenticate that the user A who has input the authentication information is a user registered in the conference system according to the present embodiment (S702). That is, in this embodiment, the authentication unit 102 functions as a login authentication unit.

  When the authentication unit 102 authenticates that the user A who inputs the authentication information in the process of S702 is a user registered in the conference system according to the present embodiment, the authentication unit 102 indicates that the login authentication is successful. Is generated and a session ID is issued, and the generated login response and the issued session ID are notified to the transmission unit 103, the login determination unit 104, and the post-authentication successful processing unit 105 (S703). In the following, it is assumed that the login user is the login user who has successfully entered the authentication information.

  Here, the login response is a response indicating whether the login authentication is successful or unsuccessful. The authentication unit 102 registers the user who has input the authentication information in the conference system according to the present embodiment. A login response indicating that the login authentication is successful, the user who has entered the authentication information cannot be authenticated as a user registered in the conference system according to the present embodiment. In this case, a login response indicating login authentication failure is generated. The session ID is a sequence of random characters and numbers issued only when login authentication succeeds after login authentication, and indicates that the user who has passed login authentication is logging in. However, it is different for each login authentication. Therefore, even if the same user logs out, a session ID different from the previous one is issued when logging in next time.

  Note that the authentication unit 102, in the process of S702, if the user A who has input the authentication information cannot be authenticated as a user registered in the conference system according to the present embodiment, a login response indicating a login authentication failure. Is generated, and the generated login response is notified to the transmission unit 103, but is not notified to the login determination unit 104 and the successful authentication processing unit 105.

  If the login response and the session ID are notified from the authentication unit 102, the successful authentication processing unit 105 executes a login preparation process (S704). Here, the log-in preparation process is a process of recording the issued session ID, recording the log-in time, acquiring information related to the log-in user (login history, favorite information, customization information, etc.), client terminal 2a, client terminal 2b, etc. This is a process for making it impossible to confirm that the logged-in user A is logged in from another terminal (hereinafter referred to as “provisional login state”).

  That is, in the conference system according to the present embodiment, if the login preparation process is performed and the login state of the login user A is only in the temporary login state, the login user A is not limited to the client terminal 2a, the client terminal 2b, or the like. Is not displayed on the participant list screen, and the login user A cannot use the function provided by the conference system according to the present embodiment. In the conference system according to the present embodiment, as will be described later, the login confirmation process of the login user A is performed to confirm the login, and the login state of the login user A is changed from the temporary login state to the normal login state. Only after the transition, the logged-in user A is notified to other client terminals such as the client terminal 2a and the client terminal 2b and displayed on the participant list screen, and the above functions can be used.

  When the login response and the session ID are notified from the authentication unit 102, the login determination unit 104 starts measuring elapsed time triggered by the notification (S705) and logs in from the login determination information storage unit 107. The determination time is acquired (S706). When the login response and the session ID are notified from the authentication unit 102, the transmission unit 103 transmits the login response and the session ID notified from the authentication unit 102 to the client terminal 2a (S707). That is, in the present embodiment, the transmission unit 103 functions as a logout notification unit.

  As described above, while the processes of S701 to S707 are performed in the conference system management server 1, that is, while the login process is being performed, the user operation on the client terminal 2a displays the display screen. When the “cancel” button is pressed (hereinafter referred to as “cancel operation”) in the login processing screen that is being displayed, the cancel input unit 204 accepts login cancellation (S605).

  Upon receiving the login cancellation, the cancellation input unit 204 generates cancellation reception information indicating that the login cancellation has been received, notifies the generated cancellation reception information to the cancellation determination unit 205 (S606), and cancels the cancellation. Generating cancel reception screen display information for displaying a screen for notifying that it has been received (hereinafter referred to as “cancel reception screen”), and notifying the display control unit 206 of the generated cancellation reception screen display information Thus, the cancel acceptance screen is displayed on the LCD 60 according to the cancel acceptance screen display information (S607). Here, a display example of the cancel reception screen is shown in FIG. FIG. 11 is a diagram showing a display example of a cancel reception screen displayed on the LCD 60 of the client terminal 2a according to the present embodiment. That is, in the present embodiment, the cancel input unit 204 functions as a cancel reception unit.

  In this way, while the login process is performed in the conference system management server 1, the client terminal 2a completes the processes of S605 to S607 (hereinafter referred to as “cancel reception process”), and the cancel reception process. When the login response and the session ID are transmitted from the conference system management server 1 after the completion of the process, the reception unit 203 receives the login response and the session ID, and notifies the cancellation determination unit 205 of the received login response and the session ID ( S608). That is, in the present embodiment, the receiving unit 203 functions as an authentication result receiving unit.

  When the cancellation acceptance information is notified in the process of S606, the cancellation determination unit 205 waits for the login response and the session ID to be notified from the reception unit 203. It is determined whether the login response indicates a login authentication success or a login response indicating a login authentication failure. If it is determined that the login response indicates a login authentication success (S609), a logout event for starting a logout process is generated. The generated logout event and the session ID notified from the receiving unit 203 are notified to the transmitting unit 202 (S610). The transmission unit 202 transmits the logout event and session ID notified from the cancellation determination unit 205 to the conference system management server 1 (S611). That is, in the present embodiment, the cancel determination unit 205 functions as a logout request unit.

  In the process of S609, when the cancellation determination unit 205 determines that the login response indicates a login authentication failure, it can be assumed that the login preparation process is not performed in the conference system management server 1. There is no need to cause the conference system management server 1 to perform logout processing. Therefore, if the conference system according to the present embodiment determines that the login response indicates a login authentication failure, the conference system ends the process when a cancel request is received during the login process at that time. Therefore, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, it is possible to reduce the time required for the login process.

  Further, in the process of S609, the cancellation determination unit 205 does not notify the login response and the session ID from the reception unit 203 within a predetermined time (for example, 60 seconds) after the cancellation acceptance information is notified in the process of S606. Since it can be assumed that an error or the like has occurred in the conference system management server 1 and the login response cannot be transmitted, in such a case, the timeout automatically occurs after the predetermined time has elapsed. It is configured as follows. Therefore, if the login response and the session ID are not notified to the cancellation determination unit 205 within a predetermined time, the conference system according to the present embodiment automatically times out after the predetermined time elapses, and the login process is in progress at that time. When the cancel request is accepted, the process is terminated. Therefore, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, it is possible to reduce the time required for the login process.

  When the logout event and the session ID are transmitted from the client terminal 2a, the conference system management server 1 receives the logout event and the session ID at the receiving unit 101, and notifies the logout determining unit 104 of the received logout event and the session ID. (S708). The login determination unit 104 receives the logout event and the session ID from the reception unit 101 before the elapsed time when the measurement is started in the process of S705 passes the login determination interval acquired from the login determination information storage unit 107 in the process of S706. Is notified, the measurement of the elapsed time started in the processing of S705 is terminated (S709), and the logout event and session ID notified from the receiving unit 101 are notified to the processing unit 105 after successful authentication (S710).

  Here, the login determination time is an elapsed time that is assumed as the time taken from the login user performing the login operation to the login canceling operation. Accordingly, when the log-in determination unit 104 determines that the log-in event and the session ID are not notified from the reception unit 101 and the elapsed time when the measurement is started in the processing of S705 has passed the log-in determination time, It is possible to determine that the login cancel operation has not been performed in the client terminal 2a while the login process is being performed.

  On the contrary, if the log-in event and the session ID are notified from the receiving unit 101 before the elapsed time when the measurement is started in the processing of S705 passes the log-in determination time, the log-in determination unit 104 It is possible to determine that the login canceling operation has been performed in the client terminal 2a while the login process is being performed. In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the login determination time is a predetermined fixed time.

  When the logout event and the session ID notified from the login determination unit 104 are notified, the successful authentication processing unit 105 executes a logout process for the login user A identified by the notified session ID (S711).

  In FIG. 7, a case where the logout determination unit 104 is notified of the logout event and the session ID from the reception unit 101 before the elapsed time when the measurement is started in the processing of S706 passes the login determination time (S708, S709). That is, the case where the cancel operation is performed while the conference system according to the present embodiment is executing the login process has been described. Next, a case where the elapsed time exceeds the login determination time without being notified of the logout event and the session ID from the reception unit 101 to the login determination unit 104, that is, the conference system according to the present embodiment executes the login process. A case where the cancel operation is not performed during the operation will be described with reference to FIG.

  FIG. 8 is a sequence diagram for explaining processing in the conference system management server 1 when the conference system according to the present embodiment receives a cancel request after login processing. Note that the processing of S801 to S811 in FIG. 8 corresponds to the processing of S701 to S711 described in FIG. 7, and thus detailed description thereof will be omitted. Similarly to the description in FIG. 7, in the following description, a user A who operates the client terminal 2 a and inputs authentication information on the authentication information input screen displayed on the display screen will be described as a user A.

  As shown in FIG. 8, the conference system management server 1 according to the present embodiment performs the processing from S701 to S707 described in FIG. 7 (S801 to S807), and the login determination unit 104 starts measurement in S705. If it is determined that the elapsed time has passed the login determination time (S812), it is determined that the login has been confirmed (S813), and login confirmation information, which is information indicating that the login has been confirmed, is generated and authentication is successful. The processing unit 105 is notified (S814). When the login confirmation information is notified from the login determination unit 104, the successful authentication processing unit 105 executes a login confirmation process (S815). That is, in this embodiment, the login determination unit 104 and the post-authentication successful processing unit 105 function as a login notification unit.

  Here, the login confirmation process can confirm that the login user A who has performed the login operation this time is logged in to the conference system from another client terminal such as the client terminal 2a or the client terminal 2b. And a process for displaying the participant list screen on the LCD 60 of the client terminal 2 and a process for allowing the login user A to use the conference system according to the present embodiment. This is a process for confirming the login of user A and changing the login state from the temporary login state to the normal login state.

  That is, in the conference system according to the present embodiment, if the login preparation process is performed and the login state of the login user A is only in the temporary login state, the login user A is not limited to the client terminal 2a, the client terminal 2b, or the like. Is not displayed on the participant list screen, and the login user A cannot use the function provided by the conference system according to the present embodiment. In the conference system according to the present embodiment, as described above, the login success process for the login user A is performed by the post-authentication post-processing unit 105 to confirm the login, and the login state of the login user A is temporarily set. The login user A is notified to other client terminals such as the client terminal 2a and the client terminal 2b for the first time after the transition from the login state to the normal login state, and is displayed on the participant list screen. It becomes possible.

  As described above, when the login operation by the user A is performed and the login authentication is successful, the conference system according to the present embodiment does not change the login state of the login user A to the normal login state. To do. The conference system according to the present embodiment confirms the login and cancels the login state of the login user A from the temporary login state to the normal login if the cancel operation is not performed within a predetermined time after the login operation is performed. It is comprised so that it may change to a state. On the other hand, when the cancel operation is performed within a predetermined time after the login operation by the user A, the conference system according to the present embodiment determines that the login has been canceled and remains in the temporary login state. It is configured to execute logout processing.

  Therefore, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, if the “cancel” button on the login processing screen displayed on the client terminal 2a is pressed immediately after the login operation by the user A, the login authentication is successful. However, since it is possible to prevent the login user A from being displayed on the participant list screen, other users are prevented from being mistaken for the user A who is logged out immediately after the login cancellation. It becomes possible.

  If the log-in event and the session ID are notified from the receiving unit 101 after the processing in S814, the login determining unit 104 notifies the receiving unit 101 in the same manner as the processing in S710 described in FIG. The logout event and session ID that have been made are notified to the post-authentication successful processing unit 105 (S810). Then, when the logout event and the session ID notified from the login determination unit 104 are notified, the post-authentication post-processing unit 105 is identified by the notified session ID, similarly to the processing in S711 described in FIG. Logout processing of the logged-in user is executed (S811).

  As described above, the conference system according to the present embodiment is configured to perform a login cancellation process when a login operation is performed in the client terminal 2a during the login process.

  Therefore, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, even after the login operation is performed, the user waits for the completion of the login process, that is, logs in once and then cancels the login state. Accordingly, since it is not necessary to perform a logout operation for the purpose, it is possible to shorten the time until cancel processing is performed, and it is possible to improve convenience for the user.

  Further, when the login operation is performed by the user and the login authentication is successful, the conference system according to the present embodiment temporarily sets the login user's login state to the temporary login state without changing the login state of the login user. If the cancel operation is not performed within a predetermined time after the login, the login is confirmed and the login state of the login user is changed from the temporary login state to the normal login state, while the login operation is performed. If the cancel operation is performed within a predetermined time from the start, it is determined that the log-in process is cancelled, and the log-out process is executed in the temporary log-in state.

  Therefore, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, when the “cancel” button on the login processing screen displayed on the client terminal 2a is pressed immediately after the login operation by the user, the login authentication is successful. However, it is possible to prevent the logged-in user from being displayed on the participant list screen, so that other users can be prevented from being mistaken for logged-in users who are logged out immediately after canceling the login. It becomes.

  In the present embodiment, as described above, when the login determination unit 104 is notified of the login response and the session ID from the authentication unit 102 in the processes of S705 and S805, the conference system management server 1 Measured elapsed time is triggered by the notification, and the logout process is executed when the logout event is notified within the login judgment time. Conversely, the login judgment time has passed without the logout event being notified. In this case, the example of executing the login confirmation process has been described. However, in the case of such a configuration, if the number of users who wish to log in becomes enormous, the load related to the counting process in the conference system management server 1 becomes enormous, resulting in problems such as a significant decrease in processing speed and system down. turn into.

  Therefore, in order to prevent such a problem from occurring, the client terminal 2 cancels the cancel determination unit 205 from the cancel input unit 204 when the session ID and login response are notified to the cancel determination unit 205 in the process of S609. If the cancel acceptance information is not notified, the cancel no information indicating that the cancel acceptance information is not notified is generated, and the cancel no information is transmitted from the transmission unit 202 to the conference system management server 1. In the process of S609, when the cancellation determination unit 205 is notified of the session ID and the login response, if the cancellation input information is notified from the cancellation input unit 204 to the cancellation determination unit 205, a logout event is generated and transmitted. Unit 202 to conference system management server It need only be configured to transmit the logout event. That is, in the present embodiment, the cancellation determination unit 205 functions as a login result response unit.

  With such a configuration, in the conference system according to the present embodiment, the conference system management server 1 determines whether or not a cancel operation has been performed without measuring the elapsed time in the processing after S705. Therefore, the processing load can be reduced.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
In the first embodiment, as described with reference to FIG. 7, the login determination information storage unit 107 stores a predetermined fixed login determination time, and the login determination unit 104 receives a logout event from the reception unit 101. If it is determined that the elapsed time when the measurement was started in the process of S705 has passed the login determination time without being notified of the session ID, the login is performed at the client terminal 2a during the login process in the conference system management server 1. The login confirmation process is executed by determining that the cancel operation has not been performed, and conversely, before the elapsed time when the measurement is started in the process of S705 passes the login determination time, When the session ID is notified, the conference system Has been described as an example a case of performing the logout process determines that the login cancel operation in the client terminal 2a during the login process in the management server 1 has been performed.

  However, if the usage environment such as the distance between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2, the network communication speed, the use / non-use of a proxy, and the network connection setting (wired / wireless) differs for each user, the conference system management Since the time required for exchanging information between the server 1 and the client terminal 2 is different, as described in the first embodiment, when the login determination time is common for all users, it is different for each user. In addition, the time interval from when the login operation is performed until the cancel operation can be accepted is different.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the usage environment such as the distance between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2, the network communication speed, the presence / absence of proxy use, and the network connection setting (wired / wireless) is considered. An example of calculating the optimum login determination time for each user will be described. In addition, about the structure which attaches | subjects the code | symbol similar to Embodiment 1, it shall show the same or an equivalent part, and abbreviate | omits detailed description.

  That is, the conference system according to the present embodiment has substantially the same configuration as the conference system according to the first embodiment, but the first embodiment is different from the first embodiment so that the above-described problem does not occur. Differently, a user setting table (hereinafter referred to as “user setting Tb”) and a login determination information generation table (hereinafter referred to as “login determination information generation Tb”) are stored in the login determination information storage unit 107 of the conference system management server 1. Storing.

  Here, the user setting Tb is, as shown in FIG. 12, an approximate distance between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2, a network communication speed, whether or not a proxy is used, and a network connection setting (wired / wireless). It is a table defined for each user ID. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of a data structure of the login determination information Tb according to the present embodiment. In addition, the setting content in each item in the user setting Tb may be calculated based on past statistical information or may be input by the user. Further, in the present embodiment, when the use environment is changed, the setting content of the user setting Tb is appropriately changed according to the change. Therefore, even in such a case, It is possible to update to the latest user setting Tb.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 13, the login determination information generation Tb is an approximate distance between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2, a network communication speed, whether or not a proxy is used, a network connection setting (wired / wireless). ) Is a table in which correction coefficients are associated with each other. FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of a data structure of the login determination information Tb according to the present embodiment. Here, the correction coefficient is a setting in each of the items for the distance between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2, the network communication speed, whether or not the proxy is used, and the network connection setting (wired / wireless). It is a coefficient for correcting the login judgment time according to the content.

  In other words, in the conference system according to the present embodiment, the login determination time is calculated by multiplying the correction coefficient of each item and the reference time as a reference. For example, assuming that the reference time is t (seconds), the correction coefficient for the approximate distance between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2 is α, the correction coefficient for the network communication speed is β, and the correction coefficient for whether or not a proxy is used Is γ and the correction coefficient in the network connection setting is δ, the login determination time at this time is calculated by t × α × β × γ × δ (1).

  Therefore, when the reference time is 2 (seconds) and the logged-in user is the user A, the setting contents of the user A from the user setting Tb shown in FIG. The approximate distance is “100”, the communication speed of the network is “1”, the use of the proxy is “present”, and the network connection setting is “wired”. ”,“ 2 ”,“ 2 ”, and“ 1 ”, the login determination time for user A is calculated as 2 × 5 × 2 × 2 × 1 = 40 (seconds) according to the equation (1).

  Processing when the conference system according to the present embodiment configured as described above accepts a cancel request during login processing will be described with reference to FIGS. 6 and 7 again. FIG. 6 is a sequence diagram for explaining processing in the client terminal 2a when the conference system according to the present embodiment accepts a cancel request during login processing. FIG. 7 is a sequence diagram for explaining processing in the conference system management server 1 when the conference system according to the present embodiment receives a cancel request during login processing.

  In order to use the conference system according to the present embodiment, the user first performs the same processing as S601 to S604 described in FIG. 6, and then performs the same processing as S701 to S704 described in FIG. When the login determination unit 104 is notified of the login response and the session ID from the authentication unit 102, the login determination unit 104 starts measuring the elapsed time triggered by the notification (S705) and uses the notified session ID. Based on the user ID of the identified login user, each setting content corresponding to the login user is acquired from the user setting Tb stored in the login determination information storage unit 107, and based on each acquired setting content, the login determination information The correction coefficient in each setting content is acquired from the login determination information generation Tb stored in the storage unit 107, and the login determination time is calculated and acquired by Expression (1) (S706). The processing in S706 is different from the first embodiment. Since the processing after S605 and the processing after S707 are the same as the processing described in FIGS.

  As described above, in the conference system according to the present embodiment, the use environment such as the distance between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2, the network connection mode, and the use / non-use of a proxy is different for each user. Thus, even when there is a difference in the time required for exchanging information between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2, an optimal login determination time is calculated for each user in consideration of the usage environment. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the time interval from when the login operation is performed until the cancel operation can be accepted from being different for each user.

  In addition, the conference system according to the present embodiment can be used even when the usage environment such as the distance between the conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2, the network connection mode, or the use of a proxy is changed. Since the user setting Tb can be updated to the latest state according to the change, it is possible to calculate the optimum login determination time for each user even in such a case.

  In the present embodiment, each setting content corresponding to the login user is acquired from the user setting Tb shown in FIG. 12, and each correction coefficient corresponding to each acquired setting content is generated as the login determination information generation shown in FIG. The example in which the login determination time is obtained from Tb and is calculated by the equation (1) has been described. However, instead of the user setting Tb and the login determination information generation Tb in the login determination information storage unit 107, as illustrated in FIG. A login determination information table (hereinafter referred to as “login determination information Tb”) in which login determination information is defined for each user ID is stored, and a login determination time corresponding to the login user is obtained from the login determination information Tb. It may be configured to. FIG. 14 is a diagram illustrating an example of a data structure of the login determination information Tb according to the present embodiment. In the case of such a configuration, there is a problem that it is not possible to deal with when the user's usage environment is changed, but by using the configuration described in this embodiment, the user's usage environment is changed. Even if it exists, it becomes possible to cope by updating the user setting Tb shown in FIG.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
In the first and second embodiments, the example in which the login cancellation process is performed when the login operation is performed in the client terminal 2a while the login process is being performed has been described. In the present embodiment, in addition to the first and second embodiments, when the login operation is performed again at the client terminal 2a while the login cancel process is being performed, the cancel process is interrupted and restarted. An example of performing login processing will be described. In addition, about the structure which attaches | subjects the code | symbol similar to Embodiment 1 and 2, it shall show the same or an equivalent part, and abbreviate | omits detailed description.

As shown in FIG. 15, the conference system according to the present embodiment has substantially the same configuration as in the first and second embodiments, but unlike the first and second embodiments, the login information storage unit 207 in the client terminal 2. It is comprised so that it may be provided. As will be described later, the login information storage unit 207 stores a set of authentication information and a re-login event for the same user ID. Figure 15 is a block diagram schematically showing the functional configuration of a conference system management server 1 and the client terminal 2 according to the present embodiment.

  In the conference system according to the present embodiment, a “re-login” button is displayed on the cancel reception screen displayed on the LCD 60 of the client terminal 2a, as shown in FIG. 17, unlike the first and second embodiments. The authentication information input screen shown in FIG. 9 is displayed again when the “re-login” button is pressed by a user operation. FIG. 17 is a diagram showing a display example of a cancel reception screen displayed on the LCD 60 of the client terminal 2a according to the present embodiment. Then, in the conference system according to the present embodiment, when login information is input to the authentication information input screen displayed again by a user operation on the client terminal 2a during the login cancellation process and the “login” button is pressed. The cancellation process is interrupted and the login process (hereinafter referred to as “re-login process”) is performed again.

  A process when the conference system according to the present embodiment configured as described above accepts a login request again during the cancel process will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 16 is a sequence diagram for explaining processing in the client terminal 2a when the conference system according to the present embodiment receives a login request again during cancellation processing.

  As shown in FIG. 16, when a user uses the conference system according to the present embodiment, first, authentication information is input to an authentication information input screen displayed on the display screen by a user operation on the client terminal 2a. , Processing similar to S601 to S607 described in FIG. 6, that is, login acceptance processing and cancellation acceptance processing are performed (S1601 to S1607).

  Then, the user presses the “re-login” button on the cancel acceptance screen described in FIG. 17 displayed on the LCD 60 of the client terminal 2a, and inputs the authentication information on the authentication information input screen displayed again. ”Button is pressed (hereinafter referred to as“ re-login operation ”), the authentication information input unit 201 acquires the input authentication information (S1612), and generates a login event for starting the login process again. Then, the cancel authentication unit 205 is notified of the acquired authentication information and the generated login event (hereinafter referred to as “re-login event”) (S1613).

  Further, the authentication information input unit 201 generates login processing screen display information in parallel with the processing in S1613, and notifies the generated login processing screen display information to the display control unit 206, thereby displaying the login processing screen. The screen during login processing is displayed again on the LCD 60 according to the display information (S1614). When the authentication information and the re-login event are notified from the authentication information input unit 201, the cancel determination unit 205 stores the notified authentication information and the re-login event in the login information storage unit 207 (S1615). That is, in the present embodiment, the cancellation determination unit 205 functions as an authentication information storage processing unit.

  In the processing of S1615, the cancel determination unit 205 is a case where the authentication information and the re-login event are continuously notified from the authentication information input unit 201 a plurality of times, that is, the re-login operation is continuously performed a plurality of times. Even in the case where this is done, the login information storage unit 207 stores only the latest authentication information and re-login event for each user. Therefore, in the conference system according to the present embodiment, the authentication information transmitted from the client terminal 2a to the conference system management server 1 in the processing of S1617 and the case where the re-login operation is continuously performed a plurality of times, and Since the re-login event is only one set for the same user, the re-login process can be performed without delay.

  In this way, while the login process is performed in the conference system management server 1, the client terminal 2a completes the processes of S1612 to S1615 (hereinafter referred to as “re-login acceptance process”), and re-login. When the login response and the session ID are transmitted from the conference system management server 1 after the reception process is completed, the reception unit 203 receives the login response and the session ID, and notifies the cancellation determination unit 205 of the received login response and the session ID. (S1608). The re-login reception process (S1612 to S1615) may be performed at any stage before the process of S1616 as long as the cancel reception screen is displayed (S1607).

When processing similar to S609 to S611 is performed in the client terminal 2a (S1609 to S1611), the receiving unit 203 receives logout completion information indicating that the logout processing is completed from the conference system management server 1, and receives it. The logout completion information is notified to the cancellation determination unit 205 (S1616). When the logout completion information is notified from the reception unit 203 , the cancellation determination unit 205 acquires the authentication information and the re-login event stored in the process of S1615 from the login information storage unit 207, and notifies the transmission unit 202 of the authentication information. The authentication information and the re-login event are deleted from the login information storage unit 207 (S1617). When the authentication information and the re-login event are notified from the cancel determining unit 205, the transmission unit 202 transmits the notified authentication information and the re-login event to the conference system management server 1 (S1618). Then, the conference system management server 1 performs the same processing as the processing after S701 described in FIG.

  As described in FIG. 16, the conference system according to the present embodiment performs the login process again even when the login operation is performed again at the client terminal 2a while the login cancellation process is being performed. Therefore, the re-login process can be performed without delay, and the time required for the re-login process can be shortened.

  In the conference system according to the present embodiment, when a re-login operation is performed in the client terminal 2a while the login cancel process is being performed, the cancel determination unit 205 performs authentication information input in the process of S1615. Even when the authentication information and the re-login event are continuously notified from the unit 201 a plurality of times, that is, even when the re-login operation is continuously performed a plurality of times, the login information storage unit 207. Stores only the latest authentication information and re-login event for each user.

  Therefore, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, the authentication information transmitted from the client terminal 2a to the conference system management server 1 in the process of S1617 even when the re-login operation is performed continuously a plurality of times. Since only one set of re-login event is required, the re-login process can be performed without delay, and the time required for the re-login process can be shortened.

Note that in FIG. 16, cancel processing stage login between but out again login operation has been described an example that is performed, the processing of the processing and S1608 in S1607 between processing treatment and S1608 of S1607 If it is configured to cancel the password, the first cancellation process will be canceled, and the user can log in again without performing the login operation again. It can be omitted. With this configuration, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, the processing of S1609 to S1618 is not performed in the client terminal 2a, and in the conference system management server 1, S708 to S711 or S808 is performed. Since the process of ~ S811 is not performed, the time required for the re-login process can be further shortened.

  Next, a process when the conference system according to the present embodiment receives a cancel request for the re-login process during the re-login process will be described with reference to FIG. FIG. 18 is a sequence diagram for explaining a process when the conference system according to the present embodiment receives a cancel request for the re-login process during the re-login process, and a process in the client terminal 2a.

  As shown in FIG. 18, in order for the user to use the conference system according to the present embodiment, first, authentication information is input to the authentication information input screen displayed on the display screen by a user operation on the client terminal 2a. , Processing similar to S1601 to S1615 described in FIG. 16, that is, login acceptance processing, cancellation acceptance processing, and re-login acceptance processing are performed (S1801 to S1815).

  Then, the conference system according to the present embodiment finishes the processing of S1801 to S1815, and the “cancel” button is pressed on the login processing screen that is displayed again in the processing of S1814 by the user operation on the client terminal 2a (hereinafter, referred to as “the processing”). When “re-cancel operation” is performed, the cancel input unit 204 accepts cancellation of re-login (S1819).

  When the cancel input unit 204 accepts cancellation of the re-login, the cancel input unit 204 generates cancel acceptance information indicating that the re-login cancellation has been accepted, and notifies the cancellation determination unit 205 of the generated cancellation acceptance information (S1820). A cancel reception screen is displayed on LCD 60 in accordance with the cancel reception screen display information for notifying that cancellation has been received (S1821). Through such processes (S1819 to S1821), the client terminal 2a according to the present embodiment performs a re-login cancellation reception process (hereinafter referred to as “re-cancel reception process”).

  When cancel acceptance information is notified from the cancel input unit 204 in the processing of S1820, the cancellation determination unit 205 deletes the authentication information and the re-login event stored in the login information storage unit 207 (S1821). In this manner, the conference system according to the present embodiment ends the process when a cancel request for the re-login process is received during the re-login process.

  As described in FIG. 18, the conference system according to the present embodiment can perform the cancel process again even when the cancel operation is performed again in the client terminal 2 a while the re-login process is performed. Therefore, the recancel process can be performed without delay, and the time required for the recancel process can be shortened.

  In addition, when the conference system according to the present embodiment receives a cancel request for the re-login process during the re-login process, the conference system re-deletes the authentication information and the re-login event stored in the login information storage unit 207. Since the cancel process is performed, it is not necessary to send the logout event to the conference system management server 1 again, and the time required for the re-cancel process can be shortened.

  In addition, when the conference system according to the present embodiment receives a cancel request for the re-login process during the re-login process, the cancel determination unit 205 performs only one set of authentication information stored for each user in the process of S1821. Since the re-login event is deleted from the log-in information storage unit 207, even if the cancel input information is continuously notified from the cancel input unit 204 a plurality of times, that is, a plurality of re-login operations are performed. Even in the case where the authentication is performed consecutively, the authentication information and the re-login event are already deleted from the login information storage unit 207. Therefore, according to the conference system according to the present embodiment, the authentication information and the re-login event are already deleted from the log-in information storage unit 207 even when the re-cancel operation is continuously performed a plurality of times. Therefore, the recancel process can be performed without delay, and the time required for the recancel process can be shortened.

  In the first to third embodiments, the login determination unit 104 and the login determination information storage unit 107 have been described as being provided in the conference system management server 1, but are configured to be provided in the client terminal 2. Alternatively, they may be configured to be provided in separate conference system management server 1 and client terminal 2.

  In the first to third embodiments, the conference system is described as an example of the login processing system. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention is applicable to any system that performs login processing.
