Computer network system and personal identification system adapted for use in the same
First Claim
1. A computer network system comprising:
- a communications network portion; and
an access request portion, said access request portion including,a fingerprint characteristic measurement unit configured to extract degenerated fingerprint data relative to a user as one-dimensional fingerprint characteristic data along a longitudinal direction of a finger of said user,a data combining device for receiving said degenerated fingerprint data and other predetermined user information and forming combined data, anda transmitting unit for transmitting the combined data to said communication network.

Abstract
When a request to access a file or the like is made, a characteristic measuring unit measures the physical characteristic of a user of a computer system. A data degenerating unit processes the measured physical characteristic as degenerated characteristic data like a one-dimensional projection and outputs the degenerated characteristic data to the computer system. The computer system sends this characteristic data to an identification server via a communication network. The identification server performs an identification process in accordance with characteristic data preregistered in a file system. In accordance with the identification result, it is determined whether or not to approve the access authorization by the user and the permission or rejection of the access is sent back to the computer system via the communication network.

8. An access management method for a computer network system having a communication network, said method comprising:
-
extracting degenerated fingerprint data relative to a user seeking to use said computer network system by measuring a fingerprint characteristic of said user along a one-dimensional projection; combining said extracted degenerated fingerprint data and other predetermined user information to form combined data; and transmitting the combined data to said communication network as a computer network system access request by the user. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
