All users should login as an institution that will be joining a teleconference event. This ID system is called “Institution-user ID”. The institution associated with the Institution-user ID can be different from the user’s original affiliation. One institution can have several different Institution-user IDs. Any user who logs in using the Institution-user ID can access information related to the institution, such as its members, systems, and installed equipment (Figure 1).
Some optional authorized users can be added to an Institution-user ID, such as “Institution-administrator” and “Event-administrator”.
The Institution administrator manages the Institution-user IDs. When an Institution-user ID is requested, the Med-hok office issues the ID through the Institution-administrator (Figure 2). The Institution-administrator ID must be issued the user who are confirmed as a member of the institution. For example, e-mail domain, verification by institution’s main telephone number, etc.
The Event-administrator plans the event, and invites institutions to connect to the teleconference. The Event-administrator can also access information concerning the event such as the program, participating members, method of connection, and others. The Event-administrator can recommend another ID as the Event-administrator of the event (Figure 3).
