Abstract

A method of communication involving processing by instruction using one or a combination of information units, when a user instructs a terminal to display contents and procedure of a communication, or to totalize the contents of the communication, or when a manager terminal instructs a field of the communication to provide a function of the communication corresponding to an object or stage of the communication. Information units forming the contents of the communication include cards, and information units forming premising information of a communication and a basis of the communication include boards. An information unit comprises a board identifier and attribute information for specifying a function of a board, such as a relationship between the board and cards. To provide a communication function corresponding to an object and stage of the communication, a template conforms to the object and stage so a manager can select and utilize the template.
