In this flow, the transfer control device 100 acquires display information of the output screen (display information 400 in FIG. 4) from the branch office system 200, and places the display information on the same tab as the currently displayed tab. It is determined whether it corresponds (s100).

  As a result of the above-described determination, if the above-described display information corresponds to the same tab, that is, if tab switching has not occurred (s101: y), the transfer control device 100 transitions the processing to s104.

  On the other hand, as a result of the above-described determination, if the above-described display information does not correspond to the same tab, that is, if tab switching has occurred (s101: n), the transfer control device 100 sets the display It is determined whether the information is already stored in the storage device 101 (s102). At the time of the determination, the transfer control device 100 executes a search in the storage device 101 using the tab identifier and its value included in the display information obtained from the branch system 200 as keys. The target of this search is the display information of each tab displayed in the past.

  If the above-mentioned search does not match the key, that is, if the display information on the same tab cannot be specified, that is, the display information on the tab obtained from the sales office system 200 is not stored in the storage device 101. In this case (s102: n), the transfer control device 100 stores the display information regarding the tab acquired in s100 in the storage device 101 and transfers the display information to the client 300 (s103). In the present embodiment, a configuration in which the storage device 101 is assumed as a storage destination of information is exemplified. However, the configuration is not limited to this, and another storage unit such as the memory 103 may be assumed (the same applies to the following).

  On the other hand, when the display information about the same tab can be identified by the above-described search (s102: y), the transfer control device 100 stores the display information acquired in the above-described s100 in the storage device 101 with respect to the tab. The already-displayed information is updated (s104).

Similarly, the transfer control device 100 generates a difference information 600 by storing a list of pages indicated by each Map (2) in Map (1).

  When the difference between the pieces of display information cannot be identified by the above comparison (s109: n), that is, it is determined that there is no screen change, and the transfer control device 100 ends the processing.

  On the other hand, when the difference between the pieces of display information has been identified by the above-described comparison (s109: y), the transfer control device 100 transmits the difference information obtained in the comparison of s108 to the client 300 (s110). End the flow.

Note that the above-described difference information is information in which the identifier and the value of the corresponding component in which the difference has occurred are stored in a data structure corresponding to the above-described hierarchical structure. The identifier and value of the corresponding component having the difference are determined by the web browser 310 of the client 300 for each component (tab, tab, tab) generated by the program 320 for the display information transferred from the transfer control device 100. Of the DOM object corresponding to the corresponding component among the page and the input / output field included in the page. For example, a tab number value is assigned to a tab (transaction screen corresponding to), a window ID value is assigned to the entire screen corresponding to the tab, and each page included in the transaction screen corresponding to the tab is included. Is assigned a page number value, and an input / output field included in each page is assigned a control ID value.

  FIG. 6 shows a configuration example of the difference information 600. As illustrated in FIG. 6, the difference information 600 is such that, with the transaction screen corresponding to the tab as a root, the MAP data of the page included in the transaction screen and the input / output field included in the page have a nested structure. And a hierarchical structure. More specifically, the list of pages is included in the MAP data of the transaction screen, and the list of input / output fields is included in the MAP data of the page.

  It is assumed that the transfer control device 100 executes the above-described series of processes in s100 to s110 each time display information is acquired from the branch office system 200.

  Although the best mode for carrying out the present invention has been specifically described above, the present invention is not limited to this, and can be variously modified without departing from the gist thereof.
