Systems Development Corporation in Tachikawa, Tokyo CONPHIC Co., Ltd. Thank you for visiting our blog. The information like usage situation and errors of systems are written in log files.

Human Error
21 Dec, 2014 System DevelopmentMessages from President
Systems Development Corporation in Tachikawa, Tokyo CONPHIC Co., Ltd. Thank you for visiting our blog. In developing systems, we have to call the users’s attention by mainly error message when they make a different use from normal use. There seem to be many cases where the handling in the case of unexpected use is not considered because of delivery deadline and budget. This may cause corruption of data and material error. Of course, good systems must have good basic function. But I think the flexibility to deal with human error is also important. Though there are many cases where we improve systems under operation, it is significant to consider the …

Integrated Authentication

Systems Development Corporation in Tachikawa, Tokyo CONPHIC Co., Ltd. Thank you for visiting our blog. When you use some systems, I think you have a user ID and a password for each system.

Integrated authentication improves the utilization of information systems and also improves the information security. CONPHIC Co., Ltd. provides the service from …
