Solution Overview

Problem

Existing document creation techniques lack a convenient method for editing documents while viewing the review results on a web browser, and require users to manage and operate separate files for document review and editing, increasing user burden.

Innovation Solution

An information processing device that transmits instructions to a terminal device to display first document data and review information positionally associated with each other, generates editing data based on the document data, and edits the data in response to editing instructions from the terminal device.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If users manage separate files for document review and editing on a web browser, then document review functionality is provided, but user operation burden increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvedocument review functionalityVSAvoiduser operation burden
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges the document review display and document editing functionalities into a single integrated interface. The review results are displayed in a first region while the editable document is displayed in a second region on the same screen, allowing users to perform both review and editing operations without managing separate files or switching between different applications.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The display screen is segmented into multiple functional regions: a first region for displaying review results and a second region for displaying and editing the document. This segmentation allows each region to serve its specific purpose while maintaining an integrated user experience, reducing the need for users to switch between separate tools.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

2Loss of information

If review results and document are displayed separately, then review information is provided, but editing convenience deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvereview information visibilityVSAvoidediting convenience
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

Instead of displaying review results and document in separate windows or files (spatial separation), the patent utilizes the two-dimensional screen space by dividing it into multiple regions. The review results are displayed in a first region while the document is displayed in a second region on the same screen, maintaining both information visibility and editing convenience simultaneously.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

3Ease of operation

If integrated display of review results and editing interface is implemented, then user convenience is improved, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveuser convenienceVSAvoidsystem complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The information processing device is designed to perform multiple functions through a single integrated system. It can display review results, display editable documents, and process editing operations all within one interface, eliminating the need for separate dedicated tools for each function and managing complexity through unified design.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

AI summary

An information processing device according to an embodiment includes at least one processor. the at least one processor is configured to: transmit, to a terminal device, an instruction to cause the terminal device to display first document data that has been saved and review information of the first document data with positionally associated with each other; generate editing data based on the first document data; and edit the editing data in response to an editing instruction received from the terminal device.
