[0014] <Embodiment>

[0015] FIG. 1 is a system configuration diagram showing an example of the configuration of a distribution system SYS according to an embodiment of the present invention. The distribution system SYS of this embodiment is a system that registers schedule information made public by local governments and the destinations of the schedule information, registers user attribute information including at least information about the user's date of birth, compares the destinations with the user attribute information to confirm the destinations of the schedule information, and distributes the schedule information to the destinations.

[0016] The distribution system SYS will be explained in more detail.

[0017] The distribution system SYS includes a distribution device 100, a local government device 200, and a user terminal device 300. The distribution device 100, the local government device 200, and the user terminal device 300 are connected to each other via a network NW so as to be able to communicate with each other via wired or wireless communication. The network NW may include a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), the Internet, a mobile communication network, a cellular network, or the like.

[0018] The distribution device 100 distributes the local government information registered by the local government device 200 to the user terminal device 300.

[0019] In this embodiment, "municipal information" includes, for example, information on procedures and events handled by the municipality, information related to the daily lives of residents, and local recommendation information. Of the municipal information, the municipal information delivered to users may be information posted on the municipality's website, etc., but to make it easier for users to understand, it may also be a summary of information posted on the municipality's website, etc., or information newly created by municipal staff. The municipal information includes schedule information such as deadlines for various procedures and the dates and times of various events.

[0020] The local government device 200 is a terminal device operated by a local government employee, and registers local government information to be distributed to the user terminal device 300 in the distribution device 100 . The distribution device 100 and the local government device 200 may be configured as a single device.

[0021] The user terminal device 300 is a terminal device such as a smartphone used by residents (also referred to as users) of the local government.

[0022] Next, the configuration of the distribution device 100 will be described.

[0023] FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of the functional configuration of the distribution device 100 according to this embodiment. The distribution device 100 includes a control unit 110, a communication unit 120, and a storage unit . These components are realized by, for example, a hardware processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) executing a program (software). Some or all of these components may be realized by hardware (including circuitry) such as an LSI (Large Scale Integration), an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), or a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), or may be realized by a combination of software and hardware. The program may be stored in advance in a storage device (a storage device having a non-transitory storage medium) such as an HDD (Hard Disk Drive), an SSD (Solid State Drive), or a flash memory, or may be stored in a removable storage medium (a non-transitory storage medium) such as a DVD or CD-ROM, and installed by inserting the storage medium into a drive device.

[0024] The communication unit 120 is a communication interface that connects the distribution device 100 to the network NW. The communication unit 120 communicates with the local government device 200, the user terminal device 300, and the like via the network NW. The communication unit 120 is, for example, a network interface card (NIC) such as Ethernet (registered trademark) or LAN. The communication unit 120 outputs various information received from other devices to the control unit 110. The communication unit 120 also transmits various information output from the control unit 110 to other devices.

[0025] The storage unit 130 includes a storage device such as an HDD, an SSD, or a flash memory. The storage unit 130 stores, for example, user information 131 and distribution information 132.

[0026] Here, the user information 131 and the distribution information 132 stored in the storage unit 130 will be described with reference to FIGS. 3, 4, 5, and 6. FIG.

[0027] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of user information 131 stored in the storage unit 130 according to this embodiment. The user information 131 is information relating to the user who uses the user terminal device 300 . As shown in FIG. 3, the user information 131 is information in which a user ID, terminal identification information, attribute information, interest information, and the like are associated with each other.

[0028] The user ID is information that uniquely identifies a user. The terminal identification information is information that uniquely identifies the user terminal device 300 when a push notification is performed, such as a device token. The attribute information is attribute information of the user. Interest information is information that indicates the user's interests.

[0029] Next, the attribute information included in the user information 131 will be described.

[0030] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of attribute information according to this embodiment. The attribute information is information in which information related to date of birth, gender information, information for students, information for foreigners, information related to family, area, etc. are associated. The information about the date of birth is information indicating the user's date of birth. Note that the information about the date of birth may be information indicating the date of birth of a member of the same household as the user, or information indicating the expected date of birth of a fetus of the user or a member of the same household.

[0031] Gender information is information that indicates the gender of the user. The information for students is information indicating whether or not information for students is required. Information for foreigners is information indicating whether or not information for foreigners is necessary. The information about family indicates whether or not information about the user's family is required.

[0032] The attribute information shown in FIG. 4 is an example, and there may be items other than those shown in FIG. 4, or there may be items obtained by further subdividing the items.

[0033] Next, interest information included in the user information 131 will be described.

[0034] FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of interest information according to this embodiment. The information of interest is information about the local government, and is associated with information on disaster prevention and crime prevention, daily life and procedures, child rearing, education, health and welfare, tourism and events, public relations, garbage, etc.

[0035] Note that the interest information shown in FIG. 5 is an example, and there may be items other than the items shown in FIG. 5, or there may be items further subdivided into the items.

[0036] Even if users have the same attribute information, such as their date of birth, their interests generally differ. For example, even if two users have the same date of birth, some may be interested in child-rearing and others may not. Therefore, if local government information is delivered based on the date of birth, some users may receive information that is completely unnecessary. Therefore, by allowing users to select items that they are actually interested in based on interest information, a technology can be provided that can deliver more appropriate information to each user than when conventional delivery is based only on attribute information.

[0037] Furthermore, even for example, even if the local government information is targeted at 20-year-olds, it is preferable that it be distributed during a predetermined period including the date of birth based on the date of birth. For example, distribution of local government information regarding health checkups for 20-year-olds is distributed during the period when the health checkup can be taken, starting from a predetermined period before the 20th birthday, and schedule management can be performed along with the distribution. Furthermore, local government information can be distributed at an appropriate time depending on the date of birth and expected date of birth, which differ for each user.

[0038] For example, local government information about coming-of-age ceremonies for 20-year-olds is distributed uniformly to users who are 20 years old or 19 years old and are eligible for the ceremony, and the schedule can be managed along with the distribution.

[0039] In this way, it is possible to specify a delivery date and deliver local government information to the target user, or to deliver local government information at a specified period according to the date of birth or expected date of birth.In either case, it is possible to manage the schedule along with the delivery, thereby improving user convenience.

[0040] Furthermore, because local government information is extremely diverse and the volume of information in each item is large, it is often difficult for users to find the information they want. According to this embodiment, by delivering local government information on items that interest users, users are relieved of the need to search for local government information, thereby improving user convenience. This reduces user inquiries to local governments and allows users to properly carry out administrative procedures themselves, thereby contributing to the efficient operation of local governments.

[0041] FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of distribution information according to the present embodiment. The distribution information is information in which distribution type, attribute specification, interest specification, local government information, etc. are associated. The distribution type is information indicating either a specified date distribution or a distribution according to the date of birth or expected date of birth.

[0042] In each of the distribution types, the distribution device 100 distributes the local government information to the user terminal device 300 by push notification. A push notification is a notification method in which the distribution device 100 distributes the information voluntarily, rather than as a response to a request from the user terminal device 300. The distribution device 100 sends push notifications according to the attribute information and schedule information (local government information) destinations registered by the user, regardless of whether the user wants to receive specific information. By sending push notifications, the user can receive the information they need without having to search for information that suits them among various pieces of information on the Internet, such as local government websites. Furthermore, by sending push notifications, the distribution device 100 registers schedule information in the user's calendar at the same time as it is delivered, without the user having to register it themselves, improving user convenience.

[0043] The attribute specification indicates attribute information specified as a distribution target. The interest specification indicates interest information that has been specified as a distribution target. The local government information indicates the local government information to be distributed.

[0044] Returning to FIG. 2, the control unit 110 controls each unit of the distribution device 100. The control unit 110 includes an attribute information acquisition unit 111 , an interest information acquisition unit 112 , a distribution unit 113 , a setting unit 114 , and a derivation unit 115 .

[0045] The attribute information acquisition unit 111 acquires attribute information of the user who uses the user terminal device 300 . The interest information acquisition unit 112 acquires interest information that indicates the user's interests. The distribution unit 113 distributes to the user terminal device 300 local government information according to the user's attribute information and local government information according to the user's interest information. The setting unit 114 sets distribution conditions that specify the distribution destination of the local government information. The derivation unit 115 derives the delivery destinations that meet the delivery conditions.

[0046] Next, examples of each screen displayed on the user terminal device 300 will be described.

[0047] FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of a display screen 500 on the user terminal device 300 according to this embodiment. The display screen 500 is an attribute information input screen. As shown on the display screen 500, the user sets, on the user terminal device 300, the date of birth (expected date of birth), gender, whether information for students is required, whether information for foreigners is required, and whether information about family members is required. The attribute information set on the display screen 500 is transmitted to the distribution device 100 and stored therein.

[0048] FIG. 8 is a diagram showing another example of the display screen 600 on the user terminal device 300 according to this embodiment. Display screen 600 is an interest information input screen. As shown on display screen 600, the user sets on user terminal device 300 whether or not they are interested in disaster prevention / crime prevention, daily life / procedures, child rearing, education, health / welfare, tourism / events, public relations, garbage, etc. As shown in the figure, for example, the disaster prevention / crime prevention item may be further subdivided into items such as crime prevention, disaster prevention, and fire / emergency, and the like. The interest information set on display screen 600 is transmitted to and stored in distribution device 100.

[0049] This display screen 600 can be displayed at any time by the user operating the user terminal device 300. For example, a setting screen may be displayed on the user terminal device 300, and the display screen may be displayed by tapping, for example, "Interest Categories" on the setting screen. Also, on the display screen 600, whether or not there is interest can be set by, for example, checking or not checking a check box, but if there is a setting that there is no interest, distribution information relating to the lack of interest will not be distributed.

[0050] Next, information input to the local government device 200 will be described.

[0051] The local government device 200 sets either the above-mentioned "specified date delivery" or "delivery according to date of birth or expected date of birth" as the delivery type. The local government device 200 sets the language in which local government information is distributed. The local government device 200 inputs the title of the local government information. The local government device 200 inputs the notification content. The various pieces of information input by the local government device 200 are transmitted to the distribution device 100 and stored in the storage unit 130.

[0052] Next, the processing flow will be explained using a sequence diagram.

[0053] FIG. 9 is a sequence diagram showing an example of the flow of processing between the user terminal device 300 and the distribution device 100 according to this embodiment. In step ST101, the distribution device 100 registers task information transmitted from the local government device 200. The task information is distribution information such as a distribution type, attribute specification, interest specification, local government information, etc. Next, the user terminal device 300 executes the process of step ST103.

[0054] In step ST103, the user terminal device 300 accepts input of attribute information from the user. The user terminal device 300 also accepts input of interest information from the user. The user terminal device 300 also accepts designation of a display language from the user. Next, the user terminal device 300 executes the process of step ST104.

[0055] In step ST104, the user terminal device 300 transmits user information such as attribute information, interest information, and display language to the distribution device 100. Next, the distribution device 100 executes the process of step ST105.

[0056] In step ST105, the distribution device 100 checks the distribution destination (attribute specification) of the task information against the attribute information in the user information, and determines whether or not the destination is a distribution target. Next, the distribution device 100 executes the process of step ST106.

[0057] In step ST106, the distribution apparatus 100 distributes the task information (local government information) to the distribution destination associated with the user information based on the determination that the task information is a distribution target. Next, the user terminal apparatus 300 executes the process of step ST107.

[0058] In step ST107, the user terminal device 300 receives the task information. Then, the user terminal device 300 executes the process of step ST108.

[0059] In step ST108, the user terminal device 300 registers the schedule information included in the task information (local government information) in the user's calendar and displays the calendar, and then ends the processing in FIG.

[0060] Note that step ST101, step ST103, and step ST104 may be performed after step ST103 and step ST104 are performed.

[0061] Next, the flow of processing in the distribution device 100 will be described.

[0062] FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing an example of processing in the distribution device 100 according to this embodiment. In step S101, the distribution device 100 receives task information from the local government device 200 and registers the task information. The task information includes local government information indicating the content of the distribution, a distribution type specifying whether to meet via distribution on a specified date or distribution based on the date of birth or expected date of birth, and information such as interest specification. The local government information includes schedule information and a display period for the schedule information. Next, the distribution device 100 executes the process of step S102.

[0063] In step S102, the distribution device 100 compares the attribute designation indicating the distribution destination of the task information with the attribute information of the user information, and extracts users to whom the local government information is to be distributed. Next, the distribution device 100 executes the process of step S103.

[0064] In step S103, the distribution device 100 distributes the task information (local government information) to the distribution destinations of the extracted user information to be distributed. Then, the distribution device 100 ends the process in FIG.

[0065] Next, the hardware configuration of the distribution device 100 will be described.

[0066] FIG. 11 is a block diagram showing an example of the hardware configuration of the distribution device 100 according to this embodiment. The distribution device 100 is composed of a CPU 101, a drive unit 102, a storage medium 103, an input unit 104, an output unit 105, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 106, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 107, an auxiliary storage unit 108, and an interface unit 109.

[0067] The CPU 101, drive unit 102, input unit 104, output unit 105, ROM 106, RAM 107, auxiliary storage unit 108, and interface unit 109 are interconnected via a bus. The CPU 101 referred to here refers to a processor in general, and includes not only a device called a CPU in the narrow sense, but also, for example, a GPU, a DSP, etc. Furthermore, the CPU 101 referred to here is not limited to being realized by a single processor, but may be realized by combining multiple processors of the same or different types.

[0068] CPU 101 controls distribution device 100 by reading and executing programs stored in auxiliary storage unit 108, ROM 106, and RAM 107, and by reading various data stored in auxiliary storage unit 108, ROM 106, and RAM 107 and writing the various data to auxiliary storage unit 108 and RAM 107. CPU 101 also reads various data stored in storage medium 103 via drive unit 102 and writes the various data to storage medium 103. Storage medium 103 is a portable storage medium such as a magneto-optical disk, a flexible disk, or a flash memory, and stores various data. The drive unit 102 is a device that reads and writes data from and to a storage medium 103 such as an optical disk drive, a flexible disk drive, or a flash memory.

[0069] The input unit 104 is an input device such as a mouse, a keyboard, a touch panel, a power button, a setting button, and an infrared receiver. The output unit 105 is an output device such as a display unit, a speaker, or the like. The ROM 106 and the RAM 107 store programs and various data for operating the respective functional units of the distribution device 100.
