Embodiment approach 1

[0059] figure 1 It is a block diagram showing a configuration example of a data connection system according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, the data connection system including a device for supporting data connection between a plurality of application programs. A plurality of computers 3 , 3 , .

[0060] The data connection support device 1 at least includes: a CPU (central computing unit) 11, a memory 12, a storage device 13, an I / O interface 14, a communication interface 15, a video interface 16, a removable disk drive 17, and an internal device that connects the above-mentioned hardware. bus 18.

[0061] The CPU 11 is connected to the above-mentioned hardware components of the data connection support device 1 through the internal bus 18 , controls the operation of the above-mentioned hardware components, and executes various software functions according to the computer program 100 stored in the storage device 13 . The memory 12 is composed of a volatile memory s...

Embodiment approach 2

[0093] The structure of the data connection system including the device supporting data connection among a plurality of applications according to the second embodiment of the present invention is the same as that of the first embodiment, and therefore the same reference numerals are used to omit detailed description. Embodiment 2 is different from Embodiment 1 in that the meta information added to the input and output parameters is weighted.

[0094] Therefore, a weighting coefficient is added to the information stored in the mashup information storage unit (meta information storage unit) 131 of the storage device 13 . Figure 8 It is an illustration diagram of the data structure of the mashup information storage unit 131 according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention.

[0095] Such as Figure 8 As shown, the mashup program information storage unit 131 stores: a connection source application ID as information for identifying a mashup connection source application; an outp...

Abstract

Provided are an apparatus, a method, and a computer program for supporting a data linkage. When a linkage destination application is linked to another application, it is judged whether or not meta-information is provided to only one of an output parameter of the other application and an input parameter of the linkage destination application. If it is judged that the meta-information is provided to only one of them, the meta-information provided to the one is provided to the other as the meta-information. When the meter information provided as the meta-information of the other is identical to the meta-information provided to the output parameter of the linkage destination application or the input parameter of the linkage destination application, the applications are linked. The present invention is capable of flexibly linking a plurality of applications without reducing a degree of freedom in application design.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device, a method, and a computer program for supporting data linkage between multiple applications that can flexibly connect multiple applications without reducing the degree of freedom in application design. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of Internet technology, a so-called mashup that constructs a new service by connecting a plurality of services provided on the Web is prevailing. When connecting multiple services, the setting of which output element from one service is used as the parameter of the service to be connected needs to be manually performed by the mashup program operator after understanding the contents of each service, and becomes a A cumbersome operation. [0003] In order to make the connection of services as smooth as possible, various data connection technologies are being developed. For example, Patent Document 1 discloses a data connection device that uses a clipboard t...
