Abstract
The states of activities by a plurality of users regarding a given project are kept track of, including activities personally carried out by individual users. An information processing unit processes, upon request from a user, work data in a joint work data management unit and personal work data management units. A shared activity information management unit and personal activity information management units manage joint work data and personal work data in the joint work data management unit and the personal work data management units as activity information. An activity information tracing unit, on the basis of activity information separately managed by the shared activity information management unit and the personal activity information management units, extracts particulars of a sequence of operations performed on a specific activity. The states of activities can be thereby kept track of, including activities personally carried out by individual users.
