INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18268060 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING DEVICE, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND PROGRAM

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a technique that allows individuals involved in providing a service to share information about the communication infrastructure used for that service. The technique involves an information processing apparatus that acquires log information from communication infrastructures and generates transaction data to be added to a blockchain using a consensus algorithm.

  • The technique enables sharing of information about communication infrastructures used for providing a service.
  • An information processing apparatus is used to acquire log information from communication infrastructures.
  • The acquired log information is included in transaction data.
  • The transaction data is added to a blockchain that is updated using a predetermined consensus algorithm.

Potential Applications:

  • This technology can be applied in various service industries where sharing information about communication infrastructures is crucial, such as telecommunications, internet service providers, and cloud computing.
  • It can be used to improve transparency and accountability in service provision by allowing stakeholders to access and verify information about the communication infrastructure used.

Problems Solved:

  • The technique solves the problem of limited visibility and transparency in the communication infrastructure used for providing a service.
  • It addresses the challenge of sharing accurate and reliable information about the communication infrastructure among stakeholders.

Benefits:

  • Improved trust and transparency in service provision by enabling stakeholders to access and verify information about the communication infrastructure.
  • Enhanced collaboration and coordination among service providers by facilitating the sharing of information.
  • Potential for more efficient troubleshooting and problem resolution by providing detailed log information about the communication infrastructure.


Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a technique that allows persons concerned with provision of a service to share information pertaining to a communication infrastructure which has been used to provide the service. An information processing apparatus includes: an acquisition means that acquires log information of one or more communication infrastructures which constitute an end-to-end communication path; and a generation means that generates transaction data which includes the log information and which is to be added to a block chain updated using a predetermined consensus algorithm.
