Business Continuity Management (BCM) becomes critical for both private companies and governments, in which they prepare for emergency situations, such as big earthquakes and security incidents. We propose an incident management system, which is based on a workflow management. The system supports corroboration work among incident response teams in the early stage of the incidents.

災害時情報共有のためのプロトコル、およびそのプロトコルを扱うサーバシステムを提案する。災害時において情報共有をいかに行うかは迅速な災害対応を行う上で重要であるが、実際の災害現場では紙ベースあるいは閉鎖的なシステムによる情報管理が行われており、十分な情報共有が行なわれていない。提案するシステムは、プロトコルとしてオープンな標準規格を用い、既存システムを柔軟に接続する事ができる。

In these days, nurturing became heavier burden for young parents because of destruction of regional community in Japan. In order to solve this problem, information technology can help build a mutuallysupportive society by supporting communication between parents, nurseries, and other families. For this purpose, this article proposes a children's life-log-sharing system "asnaro". "asnaro" is a simple and easy-to-use life-log sharing platform, which can manipulate by pen input interface. This system will supports communication between parents and nursery teacher by sharing photo and other data of children's growth. This article shows basic concepts of "asnaro", and an example of actual use at a nursery.

This study proposes the use of the methodology of Artificial Intelligence within Japanese agriculture. Japanese agriculture is facing a critical situation, and the problems are not likely to resolve using existing concepts. The study will start, focusing on the cultivation of tomatoes. Current activity is collecting and sorting data. The ultimate goal is to establish a system which can predict the growth of crops using Artificial Intelligence. In other words, to systematize the heuristics and the knowledge of farmers and build a system which will support agriculture.

多元的な世界とは，真理，価値，世界観などの多様性を認める世界である．これを実現するためには，人と人の対話を支援することが有効であると考えられる．ロボット・ネットワークを用いれば，人とロボットの同期対面（ミクロ）の対話と，ネットワークを介した人と人の非同期非対面（マクロ）の対話の両方を，効果的に支援することができる．本論文ではコンセプトを提案し，研究開発中のプロトタイプを紹介する．
