  In FIG. 12, when an instruction for a material browsing request is input from the input unit 22, the CPU 21 of the presenter terminal 20 accesses the server device 10 via the communication unit 26 and requests the server device 10 to browse the material. Is transmitted (step S31).

  The CPU 11 of the server device 10 sets the page number requested for material browsing in the conference state 1564 of the material information TBL 156 (step S32), and the user, document No, page No, browsing start time, Each information of the conference state is stored (step S33).

  Next, the CPU 11 of the server device 10 transmits the corresponding page screen data of the requested material data to the participant terminal 30 (step S34).

  The CPU 31 of the presenter terminal 20 causes the document viewer 151 to display the corresponding page screen of the received material on the display unit 34 (step S35). The presenter browses the corresponding page of the document by the document viewer 151 displayed on the presenter terminal 20. At this time, the material data is not stored in the participant terminal 30.

  Next, the CPU 21 of the presenter terminal 20 determines whether or not the close button 1519 is pressed in the document viewer 151 (step S36), and determines that the close button 1519 is not pressed (step S36; NO), the process proceeds to step S47. Then, it is determined whether or not there is a material request operation (step S37). Specifically, the document requesting operation is performed by pressing the previous page button 1513, the next page button 1514, or the like as buttons for changing the displayed page in the document viewer 151 of FIG. If it is determined that there is no material requesting operation (step S37; NO), the process returns to step S36, and if it is determined that there is a material requesting operation (step S37; YES), the process proceeds to step S38 and Send subsequent document browsing requests.

  When CPU 11 of server device 10 receives the second or subsequent document browsing request at communication unit 16, it sets the page number requested for document browsing in conference state 1564 of document information TBL 156 (step S 39), and from browsing information TBL 157. The browsing start time of the previous browsing page is acquired to calculate the browsing time (step S40), and the browsing log data 158 for the previous browsing page is updated (step S41).

  Next, the CPU 11 of the server device 10 acquires the conference state from the conference state 1564 of the material information TBL 156 (step S42), and presents, material No., page No., browsing start time, conference state related to the browsing request in the browsing information TBL157. Is stored (step S43), and the corresponding page screen data of the requested document data is transmitted to the presenter terminal 20 (step S44).

  The CPU 21 of the presenter terminal 20 causes the document viewer 151 to display the corresponding page screen of the received material on the display unit 34 (step S45). Then, the process proceeds to step S46. At this time, the material data is not stored in the presenter terminal 20.

  On the other hand, when the CPU 21 of the presenter terminal 20 determines in step S36 that the close button 1519 has been pressed (step S36; YES), the CPU 21 proceeds to step S46 and transmits end information to the server device 10.

  The CPU 11 of the server device 10 that has received the end information from the presenter terminal 20 acquires the browsing start time of the previous page from the browsing information TBL157, calculates the browsing time (step S47), and updates the browsing log data 158 (step S48). ). And it ends.

  In parallel with the execution of the process shown in FIG. 12 described above, the process shown in FIG. 13 is executed in the presenter terminal 20. This is a process in which the presenter terminal 20 inquires of the server device 10 about the display page information of the participant terminal 30 and the result is displayed in the participant display page display field 1517 of the document viewer 151.

  First, the CPU 21 of the presenter terminal 20 transmits a participant display page acquisition request to the server device 10 (step S51).

  The CPU 11 of the server device 10 acquires display page information displayed by the participant based on the browsing information TBL157 (step S52), and transmits the corresponding page No data to the presenter terminal 20 (step S53).

The CPU 21 of the presenter terminal 20 displays the page number in the participant display page display field 1517 of the document viewer 151 (step S54).
The above steps are executed at regular time intervals.

  With the process of FIG. 13 described above, the display page of the participant terminal 30 can be grasped at the presenter terminal 20. Therefore, when the presenter presses the participant display page moving button 1518, the presenter moves the display screen displayed on the presenter terminal 20 to, for example, the page displayed on the participant terminal 30 of the participant who has paid attention to the presenter. Make it possible. Note that the processes in FIGS. 12 and 13 operate asynchronously with each other.

  Next, with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. 14 and 15, processing for the participant to view the conference material data during the conference will be described. As a premise of this processing, it is assumed that the participant terminal 30 logs in to the server device 10 and the document viewer 152 is displayed.

  FIG. 14 is a flowchart showing the browsing process of the participant terminal 30 during the conference, and is common to the browsing process of the participant terminal 30 before the conference start and after the conference end in FIG. That is, steps S61 to S77 in FIG. 14 correspond to steps S11 to S27 in FIG.

  When the participant does not select the check box 1528 for synchronizing the page feed of the document viewer 152 with the presenter, the browsing process on the participant terminal 30 is performed according to the flow of FIG. Also, when the in-description page display button 1527 of the document viewer 152 is operated, the browsing process on the participant terminal 30 is performed according to the flow of FIG.

  In parallel with the execution of the process shown in FIG. 14 described above, the process shown in FIG. 15 is executed in the participant terminal 30. This is a process in which the participant terminal 30 inquires of the server device 10 about display page information displayed on the presenter terminal 20 and the result is displayed in the presenter terminal display page display field 1526 of the document viewer 152.

  First, the CPU 31 of the participant terminal 30 transmits a presenter displaying page acquisition request to the server device 10 (step S81).

  The CPU 11 of the server device 10 acquires the display page information displayed by the presenter from the material information TBL 156 (step S82), and transmits the corresponding page No data to the participant terminal 30 (step S83).

The CPU 31 of the participant terminal 30 displays the presenter display page in the presenter terminal display page display field 1526 of the document viewer 152 (step S84).
The above steps are executed at regular time intervals.

  With the process of FIG. 15 described above, the display page of the presenter terminal 20 can be grasped at the participant terminal 30, and the page can be moved to that page by the in-description page display button 1527. In addition, synchronous feeding is possible. That is, when the page of the presenter terminal 20 is moved, the page of the participant terminal 30 can be moved in synchronization with the movement. 14 and 15 operate asynchronously with each other.

  Next, the browsing history acquisition request by the presenter terminal 20 will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. This process is a process for confirming the material browsing status of the participants before or during the conference. Further, this process can be executed even after the conference ends.

  When the condition acquisition using the history acquisition material selection column 1530 and the history acquisition participant terminal selection column 1531 of the browsing history viewer 153 (see FIG. 6) is performed by the operation of the input unit 22 of the presenter terminal 20, the CPU 21 of the presenter terminal 20 Accesses the server device 10 via the communication unit 36, and transmits a browsing history acquisition request to the server device 10 (step S91). The browsing history acquisition request includes data regarding the document number and the participant. For the participants, an individual participant (user k) or an average value of the participants (user k; k = 1, 2,... N) can be selected.

  The CPU 11 of the server device 10 acquires the corresponding browsing log from the corresponding browsing log data 158 (step S92), and transmits the corresponding browsing log to the presenter terminal 20 (step S93).

  The CPU 21 of the presenter terminal 20 displays the browsing history on the browsing history viewer 153 (step S94). Specifically, it is displayed as shown in FIG. As described with reference to FIG. 6, the viewing time (seconds) for each page of the participant selected in the history acquisition participant terminal selection field 1531 and the material selected in the history acquisition material selection field 1530 is the start of the conference. In the example of FIG. 6 that is displayed before, during the meeting, and after the end of the meeting, the viewing time of the participant (user 4) regarding the viewing time of the material “XXX material” is shown. During the meeting, the browsing time is displayed as “in explanation”, “look back”, and “look ahead”. Then, the process ends.

  Next, the participant interest analysis process will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. This process is a process of analyzing the interests of the participants using the browsing log data 158. Analysis is done on a per participant and per page basis.

  First, the CPU 11 of the server device 10 calculates the difference between the viewing time of the participant and the explanation time of the presenter (step S101). Here, the difference between the viewing time of the participant and the explanation time of the presenter is the difference between the time when the participant was viewing the corresponding page during the explanation of the presenter and the relevant page explanation time of the presenter. The difference between the viewing time of the participant and the explanation time of the presenter may be the time difference itself, or the time difference between the viewing time of the participant and the explanation time of the presenter is a numerator, and the explanation time of the presenter is a denominator. Any parameter value using a time difference may be used.

  Next, the CPU 11 of the server device 10 determines whether or not the difference between the viewing time of the participant and the explanation time of the presenter is smaller than the interest non-judgment value 2 (step S102). If it is determined that it is smaller (step S102; YES), the background of the column in the description of the corresponding page in the browsing time display column 1532 is displayed in red as not interested (step S103). On the other hand, when it is determined that the difference is not smaller than the interest non-judgment value 2 (step S102; NO), the process proceeds to step S104.

  In step S <b> 104, the CPU 11 of the server device 10 determines whether or not the difference between the viewing time of the participant and the explanation time of the presenter is smaller than the interest non-judgment value 1. If it is determined (step S104; YES), it is assumed that there is not much interest and the background of the column in the description of the corresponding page in the browsing time display column 1532 is displayed in yellow (step S105). On the other hand, when it is determined that the difference is not smaller than the interest non-judgment value 1 (step S104; NO), the process proceeds to step S106.

  In step S106, the CPU 11 of the server device 10 determines whether or not the difference between the viewing time of the participant and the explanation time of the presenter is greater than the interest determination value 2, and if the difference is greater than the interest determination value 2. When the determination is made (step S106; YES), the background of the column in the description of the corresponding page in the browsing time display column 1532 is displayed in blue as being interested (step S107). On the other hand, when it is determined that the difference is not greater than the interest determination value 2 (step S106; NO), the process proceeds to step S108.

  In step S108, the CPU 11 of the server device 10 determines whether or not the difference between the viewing time of the participant and the explanation time of the presenter is greater than the interest determination value 1, and if the difference is greater than the interest determination value 1. When it is determined (step S108; YES), the background of the column in the description of the corresponding page in the browsing time display column 1532 is displayed in blue as being interested (step S109). Then, the process ends.

  In the example of FIG. 6, the analysis data for each page is displayed in the browsing time display column 1532 by changing the display mode of the column in the description of the corresponding page for each page based on the degree of interest for each page. ing. Specifically, the background of the column being described is displayed in red, assuming that one page is not interested. On the second page, the background of the column in the description is displayed in blue because it is of interest. On page 3, the background of the column being explained is displayed in yellow, assuming that there is not much interest.

In the example of the participant interest analysis process, the participant interest analysis is performed on the assumption that a page with no interest is short in browsing time. Also, the interest non-judgment value 1 and the interest non-judgment value 2 are preset values and have the following relationship.
0> No interest value 1> No interest value 2
On the other hand, a participant's interest analysis is performed assuming that the page in which it is interested has a long browsing time. Also, the interest determination value 1 and the interest determination value 2 are preset values and have the following relationship.
0 <interesting judgment value 1 <interesting judgment value 2
