Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to, for example, an information processing system, an information processing method, a program, and an information object, and more particularly to an information processing system, an information processing method, and an information object related to a calendar. [Background technology]

[0002] The main functions of a conventional calendar are to show the year, date, and day of the week, and to add decorative elements such as photographs or paintings of landscapes, people, buildings, vehicles, etc.

[0003] With such conventional calendars, for example, when used at a construction site, it is very time-consuming to count the remaining days from a specific date to an arbitrary date, such as the remaining days from an arbitrary date to the scheduled completion of construction, the remaining days until the delivery date of an ordered product, or the remaining days until the end of a fiscal year, which can lead to counting errors. Furthermore, when counting the remaining days until the end of March, which is the end of the fiscal year for government offices and many companies in Japan, it is necessary to calculate while referring to the calendar for the following year. Also, it is not possible to meet the demand to count the number of days immediately, such as when it is necessary to count days excluding holidays due to company or school anniversaries, or individual holidays for prefectures. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication 2002-200866 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0005] Patent Document 1 is a commemorative calendar, particularly for entertainers or athletes who carry out educational or training programs by estimating the number of days necessary to complete a given program; it is a dating or child-rearing calendar that can be produced by taking into account the number of days to meet or the number of days to raise a child, estimating a program for when a man and a woman start dating, or for a new mother to plan and practice what days to take to raise a child after giving birth.

[0006] Using a currently commonly used calendar showing the date and day of the week, for example, if an order is placed on June 5th for a 100-day construction project, in order to know the expected completion date of the project, one must count one day at a time to find the date on which the 100th day falls. According to the invention in Patent Document 1, the expected completion date of the project can be easily found by finding the date with the serial number obtained by adding 100 to the serial number of June 5th. However, the general number of days for construction does not include Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays when construction is not performed, making it difficult to easily find the expected completion date of the project.

[0007] Counting the number of days on specific dates, such as the number of working days in an office, the duration of a construction project, the opening days of a store, the preparation period leading up to an event, or the number of practice days of an athlete, is an extremely tedious task, not only with current calendars but also with the calendar in Patent Document 1.

[0008] The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems, and aims to provide an information processing system, an information processing method, and an information object that can eliminate the need to count the number of days from an arbitrary date to a specific date. Another aim of the present invention is to provide an information processing system, an information processing method, a program, and an information object that can prevent counting errors caused by counting, provide a calendar that does not require recounting, and improve convenience from information linked to a specific date. [Means for solving the problem]

[0038] Next, the operation and function of the information processing system 100 configured as above will be described. First, in summary, in the information processing system 100, a calendar creation application is downloaded from the calendar management server 2 to the information processing terminal 3 related to the manager. Then, the information processing terminal 3 related to the manager links a first schedule related to the overall schedule management under the manager's jurisdiction with a second schedule related to the work of the members (including employees, staff, store clerks, part-timers, casual workers, athletes, etc.) managed by the manager. Subsequently / or simultaneously, count number information is input to the calendar creation application and uploaded to the calendar management server 2. The calendar management server 2 delivers the calendar information with the count number information added to the information processing terminal 3 related to the manager and the mobile terminal 4 related to the member. The application related to the calendar display installed in the mobile terminal 4 related to the member is used, and the calendar information with the count number information added can be displayed on the display. This is the series of operations of the system according to the present invention. In addition to or as an alternative to the above, the calendar information to which the count number information has been added may be output from a printer connected to the calendar management server 2 and / or the information processing terminal 3 related to the administrator, and printed on paper or the like as an information object, and the aspects of the present invention encompass all of these.

[0039] The exchange of data necessary for mutual functions is not limited to real-time processing by a communication network 10 such as the Internet (wireless / wired) or a LAN, and may be in a form in which some or all of the devices are not particularly connected (not shown). The communication may be wired or wireless, but wireless is preferable. Examples of wireless communication include WiFi (Wireless Fidelity), Bluetooth (registered trademark), local 5G, LPWA, etc., and may include all of these, but are not limited to these. Wireless communication may be a form in which each device communicates directly (AdHoc communication), infrastructure (infrastructure communication), indirect communication via an access point, etc.

[0040] Instead of the calendar management server 2, a cloud computing service such as AWS (a trademark of Amazon Technologies Inc.) may be used to access databases, storage, and applications on demand via the Internet (not shown).

[0041] <Case 1> 3 is a sequence diagram of Case 1 showing the flow of operations, information, etc. between systems according to the present invention. However, the order of each step is not limited to this.

[0042] 3, when an administrator operates the information processing terminal 3, information processing operation is started based on a program stored in the storage unit 3B of the information processing terminal 3 related to the administrator and / or a storage device related to the control unit 3C. First, the input / output unit 3D (and the display unit 3E) accesses the calendar management server 2 via the communication network 10, and a calendar creation application is downloaded (step S1).

[0043] Information processing is started based on a program (which may be a program operated by a calendar creation application; the same applies below) stored in the memory unit 3B of the information processing terminal 3 related to the administrator and / or in a storage device related to the control unit 3C, and the input / output unit 3D (and the display unit 3E) displays the screen on the display. As a result of keyboard operations performed on this, administrator information such as the administrator's name, contact information, and affiliation, as well as first schedule information linked to the general schedule under the administrator's jurisdiction, are stored in the storage device (step S2).

[0044] The first schedule information linked to the general schedule under the administrator's jurisdiction is created from, for example, construction periods excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, company work days, campaign periods, event periods, athletic practice days, store business days, etc.

[0045] Next, information processing begins when a CPU (not shown) loads a program stored in the memory unit 3B of the information processing terminal 3 related to the administrator and / or a storage device related to the control unit 3C. Specifically, the input / output unit 3D (and the display unit 3E) displays a screen on the display, and keyboard operations are performed on this, resulting in member information such as the names, contact details, affiliations, email addresses, and information necessary for connecting to mobile terminals related to the members managed by the administrator, as well as second schedule information linked to the member information, being stored in the storage device (step S3).

[0046] Through information processing based on the program stored in the storage device by the memory unit 3B and control unit 3C of the information processing terminal 3 related to the administrator, the input / output unit 3D and display unit 3E display the screen on the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on this, a calendar creation application is started, and as the calendar creation application operates, the administrator information stored in the storage device is linked with the first schedule information, member information, and second schedule information, and count number information is created and stored in the storage device (step S4). In creating the count number information, the first schedule information, member information, and second schedule information may be linked together to generate count number information for each individual, or alternatively, type-specific information for the first schedule information (information about schedules related to the overall schedule management under the manager's jurisdiction) and / or the second schedule information (information about schedules related to the work of members (including employees, staff, store clerks, part-time workers, casual workers, athletes, etc.) managed by the manager) may be provided in advance as templates (not shown), and the first schedule information and / or the second schedule information may be determined by selecting from these templates for each member information, and the first schedule information, member information, and second schedule information thus determined may be linked together to create count number information (the same applies below).

[0047] When the control unit 3C transmits the count number information to the calendar management server 2 via the communication network 10, the input unit 2D (and display unit 2E) on the calendar management server 2 side creates calendar information with the count number information added and stores it in a storage device (step S5).

[0048] Alternatively, instead of / in addition to steps S4 and S5, on the information processing terminal 3 related to the administrator, the input / output unit 3D (and display unit 3E) displays a display screen, and keyboard operations are performed on this, so that the administrator information, first schedule information, member information, and second schedule information stored in the storage device are input into a calendar creation application.The administrator information, first schedule information, member information, and second schedule information are then transmitted to the calendar management server 2 via the communication network 10, and on the calendar management server 2 side, a linking process is performed by the input unit 2D (and display unit 2E), and count number information is created and stored in the storage device.

[0049] The count number information includes at least one of the following information: administrator information such as the name, contact information, and affiliation of the administrator linked to the first schedule information, the overall schedule under the administrator's jurisdiction, the names, contact information, affiliation, and email addresses of members linked to the second schedule information, information necessary for connecting to mobile devices related to the members, and member information.

[0050] The member side will now be described. In the mobile terminal 4 of the member, the input / output unit 4D (and the display unit 4E) displays a screen on the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on this, the calendar management server 2 is accessed (step S6). The member identification information is grasped by the control unit 2C of the calendar management server 2 from unique information built into or carried in the mobile terminal 4 of the member. Alternatively, the identification information may be input from the mobile terminal 4 of the member, and the input information or member identification information constructed based on this information may be transmitted to the calendar management server 2, resulting in the member identification information being grasped by the control unit 2C.

[0051] On the calendar management server 2 side, the control unit 2C compares the member information of the accessed member with the count number information stored in the storage device using the member identification information grasped above, and transmits calendar information corresponding to the determined member information and to which the count number information relating to that member is added, to the mobile terminal 4 relating to that member (step S7).

[0052] On the member's mobile terminal 4 side, as a result of an operation being performed on the touch panel by the input / output unit 4D (and the display unit 4E), the calendar information to which the count number information has been added is displayed on the display (step S8).

[0053] The calendar information with the count number information added and displayed on the above-mentioned display is a traditional calendar for one year starting from January 1st, and numbers written alongside the calendar, and is information in which the number of remaining days from an arbitrary date to a specific date can be calculated by simple subtraction from the numbers written alongside the arbitrary date and the specific date.

[0054] The administrator side will now be described. On the administrator's information terminal 3 side, the input / output unit 3D (and the display unit 3E) displays a screen on the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on the screen, access is made to the calendar management server 2 (step S9).

[0055] The calendar management server 2 compares the count number information stored in the storage device with the administrator information of the accessing administrator, and transmits the calendar information with the count number information relating to that administrator to the information processing terminal 3 relating to that administrator (step S10).

[0056] On the information terminal 3 related to the administrator, the input / output unit 3D (and the display unit 3E) displays the screen on the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on the screen, calendar information with count number information added is displayed on the display (step S11).

[0057] The calendar information with the count number information added and displayed on the display in step S11 is a traditional calendar for one year starting from January 1st, and numbers written alongside the calendar, and is information that allows the administrator to calculate the overall schedule under his / her jurisdiction and the number of remaining days from an arbitrary date to a specific date for the member he / she manages by simple subtraction from the numbers written alongside the arbitrary date and the specific date.

[0058] <Case 2> 4 is a sequence diagram showing the flow of operations, information, etc. between systems according to Case 2, which is an aspect of the present invention that does not require the information processing terminal 3 of the administrator. However, what is shown in the figure is merely an example, and the order of each step is not limited to this, and operations may be performed in another order.

[0059] In the mobile terminal 4 related to the member, the input / output unit 4D (and the display unit 4E) accesses the calendar management server 2 via the communication network 10, and a calendar creation application is downloaded (step S21).

[0060] Next, on the mobile terminal 4 related to the member, the input / output unit 4D (and the display unit 4E) displays the screen on the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on the screen, affiliation information such as the affiliation name and contact information, and first schedule information linked to the affiliation's overall schedule are stored in memory (step S22).

[0061] The first schedule information linked to the general schedule of the affiliation is created by including, for example, construction periods excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, company working days, campaign periods, event periods, athletic practice days, store opening days, and other necessary information.

[0062] On the member's mobile terminal 4, the input / output unit 4D (and display unit 4E) displays the screen on the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on this, member information such as the member's name, contact details, affiliation, email address, and information necessary for connecting to the member's mobile terminal, as well as second schedule information linked to the member information, are stored in memory (step S23).

[0063] Next, in the mobile terminal 4 related to the member, the input / output unit 4D (and the display unit 4E) displays the screen of the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on the screen, a calendar creation application is started. By this starting, the affiliation information, the first schedule information, the member information, and the second schedule information stored in the memory are linked, and count number information is created and stored in the memory (step S24).

[0064] On the mobile terminal 4 of the member, the input / output unit 4D (and the display unit 4E) displays the screen on the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on this, the affiliation information, first schedule information, member information, and second schedule information stored in the memory are input into the calendar creation application. When such input is performed, the affiliation information, first schedule information, member information, and second schedule information are transmitted to the calendar management server 2 via the communication network 10. Then, on the calendar management server 2 side, the input unit 2D (and the display unit 2E) performs a linking process, and count number information is created and stored in the storage device (step S25).

[0065] The count number information includes at least one of the following information: affiliation information such as name and contact information linked to the first schedule information, a general schedule of the affiliation, the name, contact information, affiliation, email address of a member linked to the second schedule information, information necessary for connecting to a mobile device related to the member, member information, etc.

[0066] The operation on the member side will now be described. In the member's mobile terminal 4, the input / output unit 4D (and the display unit 4E) displays a screen on the display, and as a result of keyboard operations performed on the screen, access is made to the calendar management server 2 (step S26).

[0067] On the calendar management server 2 side, the control unit 2C checks the member information of the accessed member against the count number information stored in the storage device, and transmits the calendar information to which the count number information of the member has been added or written / superimposed to the mobile terminal 4 of the member (step S27). In other words, the calendar information is information in which the count number information is superimposed on the normal calendar display (the same applies below).

[0068] On the member's mobile terminal 4, input / output unit 4D (and display unit 4E) is used to operate the touch panel, and as a result, the count number information is added to the display, or the calendar information is displayed side by side / superimposed (step S28).
