[0016] [First Embodiment] FIG. 1 shows an example of the configuration of a data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment.

[0017] As shown in FIG. 1, the data processing system 10 includes a data processing device 12 and a smart device 14. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0018] The data processing device 12 includes a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication I / F 26. The computer 22 includes a processor 28, a RAM 30, and a storage 32. The processor 28, the RAM 30, and the storage 32 are connected to a bus 34. Also, the database 24 and the communication I / F 26 are connected to the bus 34. The communication I / F 26 is connected to a network 54. Examples of the network 54 include a WAN (Wide Area Network) and / or a LAN (Local Area Network).

[0019] The smart device 14 comprises a computer 36, a receiving device 38, an output device 40, a camera 42, and a communication interface 44. The computer 36 comprises a processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50. The processor 46, RAM 48, and storage 50 are connected to a bus 52. The receiving device 38, output device 40, and camera 42 are also connected to the bus 52.

[0020] The reception device 38 is equipped with a touch panel 38A and a microphone 38B, and accepts user input. The touch panel 38A accepts user input via touch by detecting contact with an object (e.g., a pen or finger). The microphone 38B accepts user input via voice by detecting the user's voice. The control unit 46A transmits data indicating the user input received by the touch panel 38A and microphone 38B to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 (see Figure 2) acquires the data indicating the user input.

[0023] Figure 2 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart device 14.

[0024] As shown in Figure 2, in the data processing device 12, a specific processing is performed by the processor 28. A specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32. The specific processing program 56 is an example of a "program" related to the technology of this disclosure. The processor 28 reads the specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 operating as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0025] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions.

Next, an example of processing by the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment will be described.

[0028] (Example of form 1) The failure rate prediction system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that uses AI to predict the failure rate of components and supports inventory management and repair response. The failure rate prediction system takes data such as the number of component failures and inventory levels as input, and the AI ​​analyzes this data to predict failure rate trends and inventory lifespan. Furthermore, it provides information on whether repairs are possible and supports the decision-making process for responding before inventory runs out. This mechanism streamlines component management and contributes to resource conservation and reduction of environmental impact. For example, data such as the number of component failures and inventory levels are input. In this case, if long-term data is available, more accurate predictions can be made. For example, the number of failures (units / month) and inventory level of component A are input. This allows the AI ​​to predict failure rate trends and inventory lifespan. Next, the AI ​​analyzes the input data and predicts failure rate trends and inventory lifespan. For example, based on past data, it predicts future failure rate trends and calculates how long inventory will last. This allows support for deciding on a response strategy before inventory runs out. Furthermore, it provides information on whether repairs are possible. For example, if repair is possible, repairs are promoted; if repair is not possible, an operational policy is decided before inventory runs out. In this way, component management is made more efficient, contributing to resource conservation and a reduction in environmental impact. By repairing faulty products, resources can be recycled, contributing to the achievement of goals such as the SDGs. Furthermore, by deciding on a response policy before inventory runs out, component management is made more efficient, and unnecessary inventory can be reduced. Thus, the failure rate prediction system can make component management more efficient, contributing to resource conservation and a reduction in environmental impact.

[0029] The failure rate prediction system according to the embodiment comprises an input unit, an analysis unit, a prediction unit, a determination unit, and a provision unit. The input unit receives data. The data includes, but is not limited to, the number of component failures and inventory levels. For example, the input unit can receive data on the number of component failures (units / month) and inventory levels. The analysis unit analyzes the data received by the input unit. For example, the analysis unit can analyze the data using statistical analysis or machine learning algorithms. The prediction unit predicts the failure rate based on the data analyzed by the analysis unit. For example, the prediction unit can predict future failure rate trends based on past data. The determination unit determines whether repair is possible based on the results predicted by the prediction unit. For example, the determination unit can determine whether repair is possible by considering the availability of necessary parts and the repair time. The provision unit provides the results obtained by the determination unit. For example, the provision unit can provide the prediction results and determination results to the user. As a result, the failure rate prediction system according to the embodiment can efficiently perform a series of processes from data input to analysis, prediction, determination, and provision. For example, the input unit can input data such as the number of component failures and inventory levels. The analysis unit can analyze the input data and predict failure rate trends and inventory lifespan. The prediction unit can predict future failure rate trends based on past data. The determination unit can determine whether or not a component is repairable. The provision unit can provide prediction results and determination results. As a result, the failure rate prediction system according to this embodiment can efficiently perform a series of processes from data input to analysis, prediction, determination, and provision.

[0030] The input unit takes in data. This data includes, but is not limited to, the number of component failures or inventory levels. For example, the input unit can input the number of component failures (units / month) or inventory levels. The input unit not only provides an interface for users to manually input data, but also has the capability to automatically retrieve data from external systems and databases. For example, it can integrate with manufacturing line management systems or inventory management systems to obtain the latest data in real time. This allows the input unit to eliminate the need for manual input and ensure data accuracy and consistency. Furthermore, the input unit has the capability to verify the format and content of the data, automatically detecting and correcting inaccurate or missing data. For example, if the input data contains abnormal values, the input unit will warn the user and prompt them to correct it. If there is missing data, it can be supplemented based on past data or other relevant data. This allows the input unit to maintain data quality and provide a foundation for the analysis and forecasting units to perform accurate analysis and forecasting. Additionally, the input unit has the capability to record the data input history for later reference. This allows users to review past data input history and make corrections or re-entries as needed. This allows the input unit to efficiently perform the entire process from data entry to management.

[0031] The analysis unit analyzes the data input by the input unit. For example, the analysis unit can analyze data using statistical analysis or machine learning algorithms. Specifically, statistical analysis calculates basic statistical indicators (mean, median, standard deviation, etc.) to understand the distribution and trends of the data, clarifying its characteristics. Correlation analysis and regression analysis can also be performed to identify factors influencing failure rates and inventory levels. Machine learning algorithms build models based on past data and perform predictions and classifications on new data. For example, regression models and time series analysis models can be used to predict failure rates, and clustering and association rules can be applied to fluctuations in inventory levels. Furthermore, the analysis unit also performs data preprocessing and feature engineering. Data preprocessing involves imputing missing values, removing outliers, and normalizing and standardizing the data to prepare it for analysis. Feature engineering extracts useful features from the data to improve model performance. For example, features such as component usage frequency and environmental conditions can be added to predict failure rates. This allows the analysis unit to analyze the input data from multiple perspectives and accurately grasp trends in failure rates and inventory levels.

[0032] The prediction unit predicts the failure rate based on the data analyzed by the analysis unit. For example, the prediction unit can predict future failure rate trends based on past data. Specifically, it uses time series analysis models and regression models to predict future failure rates from past failure data. In time series analysis models, the unit learns the temporal patterns of past data and predicts future data. For example, moving average models and autoregressive models can be used to capture seasonal variations and trends in failure rates. In regression models, factors that affect the failure rate are used as explanatory variables to predict the failure rate. For example, a regression model can be constructed to predict the failure rate using the frequency of use of components and environmental conditions as explanatory variables. Furthermore, the prediction unit can also perform ensemble learning by combining multiple models using machine learning algorithms. This allows for the integration of prediction results from individual models, enabling more accurate predictions. For example, predictions can be made by combining multiple decision tree models using random forests or gradient boosting. As a result, the prediction unit can accurately predict future failure rates based on past data and provide information for taking appropriate countermeasures.

[0033] The determination unit determines whether repair is possible based on the results predicted by the prediction unit. For example, the determination unit can determine whether repair is possible by considering factors such as the availability of necessary parts and the repair time. Specifically, it checks the inventory and supply status of necessary parts based on the predicted failure rate and determines whether repair is possible. It also considers the time and cost required for repair to determine whether the repair is economically feasible. For example, if the necessary parts are not in stock or the repair time is too long, it is determined that repair is difficult. On the other hand, if there is sufficient stock of parts and the repair time is short, it is determined that repair is possible. Furthermore, the determination unit also has a function to determine the priority of repairs. For example, it can determine that components with a high impact from failure or components that require urgent repair should be repaired first. As a result, the determination unit can quickly and accurately determine the feasibility and priority of repairs based on the predicted failure rate, and formulate an efficient repair plan.

[0034] The service provider provides the results obtained by the judgment provider. For example, the service provider can provide users with prediction results and judgment results. Specifically, it displays results in a dashboard or report format that users can access. The dashboard visually displays prediction and judgment results that are updated in real time, making them easy for users to understand intuitively. For example, it uses graphs and charts to display trends in failure rates and repair priorities. In addition, the report format documents detailed analysis results and prediction results so that users can refer to them later. Furthermore, the service provider has an alert function that can send notifications to users when important information or urgent action is required. For example, it can send notifications via email or SMS if the failure rate suddenly increases or if parts that need repair are identified. This allows the service provider to provide users with quick and accurate information and support appropriate responses. Furthermore, the service provider also has a function to collect user feedback and use it to improve the system. For example, users can comment on and evaluate the information provided, and the accuracy and usability of the system can be improved based on that feedback. This allows the service provider to provide users with high-quality information and improve the overall performance of the system.

[0035] The input unit can input data such as the number of component failures and inventory levels. For example, the input unit can input the number of component failures (units / month) and inventory levels. For example, the input unit can input the number of component failures. The input unit can also input inventory levels. Furthermore, the input unit can input long-term data. For example, the input unit can input data for the past year.

Some or all of the above processing in the input unit may be performed using AI, for example, or without AI.

[0065] The following briefly describes the processing flow for example form 1.

[0066] Step 1: The input unit is used to input data. The data may include, but is not limited to, the number of component failures or inventory levels.

[0067] (Example of form 2) The failure rate prediction system according to an embodiment of the present invention is a system that uses AI to predict the failure rate of components and supports inventory management and repair response. The failure rate prediction system takes data such as the number of component failures and inventory levels as input, and the AI ​​analyzes this data to predict failure rate trends and inventory lifespan. Furthermore, it provides information on whether repairs are possible and supports the decision-making process for responding before inventory runs out. This mechanism streamlines component management and contributes to resource conservation and reduction of environmental impact. For example, data such as the number of component failures and inventory levels are input. In this case, if long-term data is available, more accurate predictions can be made. For example, the number of failures (units / month) and inventory level of component A are input. This allows the AI ​​to predict failure rate trends and inventory lifespan. Next, the AI ​​analyzes the input data and predicts failure rate trends and inventory lifespan. For example, based on past data, it predicts future failure rate trends and calculates how long inventory will last. This allows support for deciding on a response strategy before inventory runs out. Furthermore, it provides information on whether repairs are possible. For example, if repair is possible, repairs are promoted; if repair is not possible, an operational policy is decided before inventory runs out. In this way, component management is made more efficient, contributing to resource conservation and a reduction in environmental impact. By repairing faulty products, resources can be recycled, contributing to the achievement of goals such as the SDGs. Furthermore, by deciding on a response policy before inventory runs out, component management is made more efficient, and unnecessary inventory can be reduced. Thus, the failure rate prediction system can make component management more efficient, contributing to resource conservation and a reduction in environmental impact.

For example, moving average models and autoregressive models can be used to capture seasonal variations and trends in failure rates. In regression models, factors that affect the failure rate are used as explanatory variables to predict the failure rate. For example, a regression model can be constructed to predict the failure rate using the frequency of use of components and environmental conditions as explanatory variables. Furthermore, the prediction unit can also perform ensemble learning by combining multiple models using machine learning algorithms. This allows for the integration of prediction results from individual models, enabling more accurate predictions. For example, predictions can be made by combining multiple decision tree models using random forests or gradient boosting. As a result, the prediction unit can accurately predict future failure rates based on past data and provide information for taking appropriate countermeasures.

[0072] The determination unit determines whether repair is possible based on the results predicted by the prediction unit. For example, the determination unit can determine whether repair is possible by considering factors such as the availability of necessary parts and the repair time. Specifically, it checks the inventory and supply status of necessary parts based on the predicted failure rate and determines whether repair is possible. It also considers the time and cost required for repair to determine whether the repair is economically feasible. For example, if the necessary parts are not in stock or the repair time is too long, it is determined that repair is difficult. On the other hand, if there is sufficient stock of parts and the repair time is short, it is determined that repair is possible. Furthermore, the determination unit also has a function to determine the priority of repairs. For example, it can determine that components with a high impact from failure or components that require urgent repair should be repaired first. As a result, the determination unit can quickly and accurately determine the feasibility and priority of repairs based on the predicted failure rate, and formulate an efficient repair plan.

Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54. The exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 using communication interfaces 44 and 26 is performed in a secure manner.

[0133] Figure 4 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the smart glasses 214. As shown in Figure 4, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing by the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0134] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30. The specific processing is realized by the processor 28 acting as a specific processing unit 290 according to the specific processing program 56 executed on the RAM 30.

[0135] Storage 32 stores the data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59. The data generation model 58 and the emotion identification model 59 are used by the identification processing unit 290. The identification processing unit 290 can estimate the user's emotions using the emotion identification model 59 and perform identification processing using the user's emotions. The emotion estimation function (emotion identification function) using the emotion identification model 59 performs various estimations and predictions regarding the user's emotions, including but not limited to these examples. Furthermore, emotion estimation and prediction also include, for example, emotion analysis.

[0136] In the smart glasses 214, specific processing is performed by the processor 46. The storage 50 stores a specific processing program 60. The processor 46 reads the specific processing program 60 from the storage 50 and executes the read specific processing program 60 on the RAM 48. The specific processing is realized by the processor 46 acting as a control unit 46A according to the specific processing program 60 executed on the RAM 48. The smart glasses 214 also have a data generation model 58 and an emotion identification model 59, similar to the data generation model and emotion identification model 59, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0137] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58.

Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device or a terminal device owned by the user (for example, a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.).

[0138] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the smart glasses 214. In the smart glasses 214, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 to output the result of the specific processing.

The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0139] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data). The data generation model 58 infers from the input inference data according to the instructions indicated by the prompts, and outputs the inference result in one or more data formats such as audio data, text data, and image data. The data generation model 58 includes, for example, text generation AI, image generation AI, and multimodal generation AI. Here, inference refers to, for example, analysis, classification, prediction, and / or summarization. The specific processing unit 290 performs the specific processing described above using the data generation model 58. The data generation model 58 may be a fine-tuned model that outputs inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions, in which case the data generation model 58 can output inference results from prompts that do not contain instructions. In the data processing device 12, etc., there are multiple types of data generation models 58, and the data generation model 58 includes AI other than generative AI. AI other than generative AI includes, for example, linear regression, logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, support vector machines (SVM), k-means clustering, convolutional neural networks (CNN), recurrent neural networks (RNN), generative adversarial networks (GAN), or naive Bayes, and can perform various processes, but is not limited to these examples. Also, the AI ​​may be an AI agent. Furthermore, when the processing of each part described above is performed by the AI, the processing may be performed by the AI ​​in part or in whole, but is not limited to this example. Also, processing performed by an AI including a generative AI may be replaced by rule-based processing, and rule-based processing may be replaced by processing performed by an AI including a generative AI.

[0158] [Fourth Embodiment] Figure 7 shows an example of the configuration of the data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment.

[0159] As shown in Figure 7, the data processing system 410 includes a data processing device 12 and a robot 414. An example of the data processing device 12 is a server.

[0160] The data processing device 12 comprises a computer 22, a database 24, and a communication interface 26. The computer 22 comprises a processor 28, RAM 30, and storage 32.

[0162] The microphone 238 receives voice signals from the user and accepts instructions from the user. The microphone 238 captures the voice signals from the user, converts the captured voice into audio data, and outputs it to the processor 46. The speaker 240 outputs audio according to the instructions from the processor 46.

[0163] Camera 42 is a small digital camera equipped with an optical system including a lens, aperture, and shutter, and an image sensor such as a CMOS image sensor or CCD image sensor, which captures images of the area around the user (for example, an imaging range defined by a field of view equivalent to the field of vision of a typical healthy person).

[0164] Communication interface 44 is connected to network 54. Communication interfaces 44 and 26 are responsible for the exchange of various information between processor 46 and processor 28 via network 54.

[0165] The controlled object 443 includes a display device, LEDs in the eyes, and motors that drive the arms, hands, and feet. The posture and gestures of the robot 414 are controlled by controlling the motors of the arms, hands, and feet. Some of the robot 414's emotions can be expressed by controlling these motors. The robot 414's facial expressions can also be expressed by controlling the illumination state of the LEDs in its eyes.

[0166] Figure 8 shows an example of the main functions of the data processing device 12 and the robot 414. As shown in Figure 8, the data processing device 12 performs specific processing using the processor 28. The storage 32 stores the specific processing program 56.

[0167] The processor 28 reads a specific processing program 56 from the storage 32 and executes the read specific processing program 56 on the RAM 30.

[0169] In robot 414, specific processing is performed by processor 46. A specific program 60 is stored in storage 50. Processor 46 reads the specific program 60 from storage 50 and executes it on RAM 48.

Robot 414 also has data generation model 58 and emotion identification model 59, similar to those of the robot, and can perform processing similar to that of the specific processing unit 290 using these models.

[0170] Furthermore, other devices besides the data processing device 12 may also have the data generation model 58. For example, a server device may have the data generation model 58. In this case, the data processing device 12 obtains processing results (such as prediction results) using the data generation model 58 by communicating with the server device that has the data generation model 58. Also, the data processing device 12 may be a server device or a terminal device owned by the user (for example, a mobile phone, robot, home appliance, etc.).

[0171] The specific processing unit 290 transmits the result of the specific processing to the robot 414. In the robot 414, the control unit 46A causes the speaker 240 and the controlled object 443 to output the result of the specific processing. The microphone 238 acquires audio indicating user input for the result of the specific processing. The control unit 46A transmits the audio data indicating user input acquired by the microphone 238 to the data processing unit 12. In the data processing unit 12, the specific processing unit 290 acquires the audio data.

[0172] The data generation model 58 is a so-called generative AI. An example of a data generation model 58 is a generative AI such as ChatGPT. The data generation model 58 is obtained by performing deep learning on a neural network. The data generation model 58 is input with prompts containing instructions, and inference data such as audio data representing speech, text data representing text, and image data representing images (e.g., still image data or video data).

[0173] The data processing system 410 according to the fourth embodiment performs the same processing as the data processing system 10 according to the first embodiment. The processing by the data processing system 410 is performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 or the control unit 46A of the robot 414, but it may also be performed by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 and the control unit 46A of the robot 414. In addition, the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing device 12 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the robot 414 or an external device, and the robot 414 acquires or collects information necessary for processing from the data processing device 12 or an external device.

[0174] Each of the multiple elements described above, including the input unit, analysis unit, prediction unit, determination unit, and provision unit, is implemented in at least one of the robot 414 and the data processing unit 12. For example, the input unit is implemented by the microphone 238 of the robot 414 and inputs data such as the number of component failures and inventory levels. The analysis unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and analyzes the input data. The prediction unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and predicts the failure rate based on the analyzed data. The determination unit is implemented by the specific processing unit 290 of the data processing unit 12 and determines whether repair is possible based on the predicted results. The provision unit is implemented by the speaker 240 of the robot 414 and provides the prediction results and determination results to the user. The correspondence between each unit and the device or control unit is not limited to the example described above and can be modified in various ways.

[0175] Furthermore, the emotion identification model 59, acting as an emotion engine, may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping. Specifically, the emotion identification model 59 may determine the user's emotion according to a specific mapping, which is an emotion map (see Figure 9). Similarly, the emotion identification model 59 may also determine the robot's emotion, and the identification processing unit 290 may perform identification processing using the robot's emotion.

[0176] Figure 9 shows the emotion map 400, in which multiple emotions are mapped. In the emotion map 400, emotions are arranged in concentric circles radiating from the center. The closer to the center of the concentric circles, the more primitive the emotions are located. Further out of the concentric circles, emotions representing states and actions arising from mental states are located. Emotion is a concept that includes feelings and mental states. On the left side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain are located. On the right side of the concentric circles, emotions that are generally induced by situational judgment are located. Above and below the concentric circles, emotions that are generally generated from reactions occurring in the brain and induced by situational judgment are located. In addition, the emotion of "pleasure" is located on the upper side of the concentric circles, and the emotion of "displeasure" is located on the lower side. Thus, in the emotion map 400, multiple emotions are mapped based on the structure in which emotions arise, and emotions that are likely to occur simultaneously are mapped close together.

[0177] These emotions are distributed at the 3 o'clock position on the Emotion Map 400, and usually fluctuate between feelings of security and anxiety. In the right half of the Emotion Map 400, situational awareness takes precedence over internal feelings, resulting in a calm impression.

[0178] The inside of the Emotion Map 400 represents inner thoughts, while the outside represents actions. Therefore, the further you go from the outside of the Emotion Map 400, the more visible (expressed in actions) your emotions become.

[0179] Here, human emotions are based on various balances, such as posture and blood sugar levels. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. Similarly, in robots, cars, and motorcycles, emotions can be created based on various balances, such as posture and battery level. When these balances deviate from the ideal, it results in discomfort, and when they approach the ideal, it results in pleasure. The emotion map can be generated based, for example, on Dr. Mitsuyoshi's emotion map (Research on a system for analyzing brain physiological signals of speech emotion recognition and emotion, Tokushima University, doctoral dissertation: https: / / ci.nii.ac.jp / naid / 500000375379). The left half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "response," where sensation is dominant. The right half of the emotion map contains emotions belonging to a region called "situation," where situational awareness is dominant.

[0180] The emotion map defines two emotions that promote learning. One is the emotion around the middle of the negative "repentance" and "reflection" on the situation side. In other words, it is when the robot experiences negative emotions such as "I never want to feel this way again" or "I don't want to be scolded again." The other is the emotion around the positive "desire" on the reaction side. In other words, it is when the robot has positive feelings such as "I want more" or "I want to know more."

[0181] The emotion identification model 59 inputs user input into a pre-trained neural network, obtains emotion values ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400, and determines the user's emotion. This neural network is pre-trained based on multiple training data sets, which are combinations of user input and emotion values ​​representing each emotion shown in the emotion map 400. Furthermore, this neural network is trained so that emotions located close together have similar values, as shown in the emotion map 900 in Figure 10. Figure 10 shows an example where multiple emotions such as "reassured," "calm," and "confident" have similar emotion values.

[0182] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which a specific process is performed by a single computer 22. However, the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto, and a distributed processing method for the specific process may be used, which includes computer 22 and multiple other computers.

[0183] In the above embodiment, an example was given in which the specific processing program 56 is stored in the storage 32, but the technology of this disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a portable, computer-readable, non-temporary storage medium such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory. The specific processing program 56 stored in the non-temporary storage medium is installed in the computer 22 of the data processing device 12. The processor 28 executes specific processing according to the specific processing program 56.

[0184] Alternatively, the specific processing program 56 may be stored in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, and the specific processing program 56 may be downloaded and installed on the computer 22 in response to a request from the data processing device 12.

[0185] Furthermore, it is not necessary to store the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in a storage device such as a server connected to the data processing device 12 via the network 54, or to store the entirety of the specific processing program 56 in the storage 32; it is acceptable to store only a portion of the specific processing program 56.

[0186] The following types of processors can be used as hardware resources to perform specific processing. Examples of processors include a CPU, a general-purpose processor that functions as a hardware resource to perform specific processing by executing software, i.e., a program. Other examples of processors include dedicated electrical circuits, such as FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays), PLDs (Programmable Logic Devices), or ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), which have circuit configurations specifically designed to perform specific processing. All of these processors have built-in or connected memory, and all of them perform specific processing by using memory.
