Abstract
A communication management system receives a request for registering first candidate information for use by a communication terminal, obtains second candidate information available for use by the communication terminal, calculates a duplicate rate of member communication terminals, between the first candidate information and the second candidate information, and determines not to automatically register the first candidate information when the duplicate rate is at least greater than a threshold.
Claims9
A communication management system, comprising:
- a receiver that receives a request for registering first candidate information for use by a communication terminal, from the communication terminal, the first candidate information indicating a first group of one or more member communication terminals;
- a memory that stores second candidate information available for use by the communication terminal, the second candidate information indicating a second group of one or more member communication terminals;
- and
- a processor that calculates a duplicate rate of member communication terminals, between the first candidate information and the second candidate information,
- when the duplicate rate is at least less than a threshold, the processor determines to automatically register the first candidate information, and
- when the duplicate rate is at least greater than the threshold, the processor determines not to automatically register the first candidate information.
A communication terminal, comprising:
- a transmitter that transmits a request for registering first candidate information for use by the communication terminal, to a communication management system, the first candidate information indicating a first group of one or more member communication terminals;
- a receiver that receives information regarding second candidate information available for use by the communication terminal, from the communication management system, the second candidate information indicating a second group of one or more member communication terminals, when a duplicate ratio of member communication terminals between the first candidate information and the second candidate information is at least greater than a threshold;
- and
- a user interface that receives a user instruction indicating whether to register the first candidate information for use by the communication terminal,
- wherein the transmitter transmits the user instruction indicating whether to register the first candidate information to the communication management system.
A non-transitory recording medium storing a plurality of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform a method of managing candidate information comprising:
- receiving a request for registering first candidate information for use by a communication terminal, from the communication terminal, the first candidate information indicating a first group of one or more member communication terminals;
- storing second candidate information available for use by the communication terminal, the second candidate information indicating a second group of one or more member communication terminals;
- calculating a duplicate rate of member communication terminals, between the first candidate information and the second candidate information;
- when the duplicate rate is at least less than a threshold, determining to automatically register the first candidate information;
- and
- when the duplicate rate is at least greater than the threshold, determining not to automatically register the first candidate information.
