However, details about this usage record 160 will be described later. <Data structure example> Next, various types of information used by the booth management support device 100 of this embodiment will be described. FIG. 4 shows an example of the user management DB 125 in this embodiment.

[0042] The user management DB 125 in this embodiment is a database that stores information about each smoker. It is the base.

[0043] This user management DB 125 uses, for example, a user ID that uniquely identifies a smoker as a key. The name, age, address, affiliation, authentication information, smoking booth 150 usage history, It is a collection of records that link data such as contract courses and advertising response history. do.

[0044] The advertisement response history is stored in the user terminal 200 of the smoker who uses the smoking booth 150, or or advertisements for medical insurance, etc. displayed on the screen of a display or the like in the smoking booth 150 (e.g., The smoker clicks on the information distributed by the smoke management support device 100 and goes to a predetermined website. This is information when you access the site.

[0045] Such information may be, for example, a banner set by an insurance company or other advertiser on the website. advertising objects such as the website and the web server of the website. Of course, information may be provided from the system of the insurance company or the like that is the advertiser.

[0046] Next, FIG. 5 shows an example of the booth management DB 126 in this embodiment. The booth management DB 126 stores information on each smoking booth 150 installed in a store or the like. It is a database that stores

[0047] This booth management DB 126 stores, for example, a booth ID that uniquely identifies the smoking booth 150. Using this as a key, we will look at the business where the smoking booth is installed (e.g., store, etc.), the installation location, and smoking Type of booth 150 (e.g., classified according to size, capacity, function, etc.), It is a collection of records that link data such as usage history and payment fees.

[0048] The usage history includes the date of use of the smoking booth 150 by the smoker, the time of entry / exit, and Information such as the above (derived from usage history 160) and the time spent in the smoking booth 150 This includes information such as the average waiting time, average waiting time, and average number of people waiting.

[0049] In addition, the time spent in the smoking booth 150, the average waiting time, and the average waiting time Information such as the number of people is obtained from the smoking booth 150.

[0050] The residence time in the booth can be calculated from the difference between the above-mentioned entry and exit times. For example, the waiting time for each smoker waiting to enter the smoking booth 150 is the time it takes for the smoker to enter or exit the booth. The difference between the time observed near the entrance and the time when the person was able to enter was calculated, and the average of the results was calculated. The average number of people waiting is 150 for a certain period of time. This is calculated as the average number of smokers waiting to enter each venue.

[0051] In addition, the payment fee is determined based on the number of users of the smoking booth 150 and the duration of use, as indicated by the usage history. The fee is calculated by applying the data that forms the basis for calculating the fee to a predetermined calculation formula. The payment fee may be, for example, a fee collected from each smoker by the booth management support device 100. The payment will be made by the user to the store or other establishment where the smoking booth is installed.

[0052] Next, an example of the condition table 127 in this embodiment is shown in FIG. The condition table 127 is a table that stores the frequency of use and the area where the smoking booth 150 is used, according to the type of the smoking booth 150. This table stores the fee information determined for each booth. This fee is paid by the operator of the booth 100 to the store or other establishment where the smoking booth is installed.

[0053] This condition table 127 uses, for example, a condition ID that uniquely identifies a condition as a key. The conditions apply to the 150 smoking booths, including the type and number of times per month that they can be used. It is a collection of records that link together data such as area and fee (monthly).

[0054] As shown in the example in Figure 6, the installation fee for the smoking booth 150, the type of smoking booth (size, Various specifications such as functions, the number of times smokers use it, and the area (where it is installed) , the fee is set.

[0055] In other words, what kind of smoking booths 150 are available in what areas (e.g. administrative districts, etc.)? Whether it is in a densely populated area with high land prices, an office district or a residential area, etc.) and The fee will be determined based on the frequency of use. The viewpoint is an example, and the installation fee may be calculated based on other viewpoints.

[0056] Next, Fig. 7 shows an example of the configuration of the usage record 160 in this embodiment. The usage record 160 is information showing how each smoker used the smoking booth 150. This is news.

[0057] This usage record 160 is, for example, a user ID that uniquely identifies a smoker as a key. The data of the smoker, such as the date of use of the smoking booth 150, the time of entry, and the time of exit, are linked. It is a collection of records that have been attached. <Flow example: Booth proposal> The actual procedure of the booth management support method according to this embodiment will be explained below with reference to the drawings.
