Also, where n ₀ denotes a reference cumulative number (e.g., 100) and may be set by the user or designer,

Means an operation that performs a rounding operation on an integer value to an integer value.

The file badge management unit 330 may reflect the user information of the corresponding folder access terminal 120 in the file-by-file modification history together with the file modification date when the modification of the file is detected in the update process of the file-by-file modification history. For example, the file badge management unit 330 may accumulate the file modification date and the user who made the modification on the file-by-file modification history every time a file modification is performed for the file 1.

The file badge management unit 330 may generate a file badge for each user of the user based on the file access time of each user and the file modification history of each file associated with the user information in the process of providing the file badges for each user by file . For example, the file badge management unit 330 may update the file modification history of the files 1 and 2 in the folder 1 to which the user A is permitted to access from file modification date 2017.10.21 12:08:51, 2017.10 .24 10:32:08 and 2017.10.25 18:13:07, and if the date and time when the user A last accessed the file 1 is confirmed to be 2017.10.22 13:35:05, 10:32:08 and 2017.10.25 18:13:07, and the file badge of the file 1 of the user A can be calculated to be 2.

In one embodiment, the file badge management unit 330 manages a time stamp as a time displacement parameter on a file-by-file basis for each of at least one file in the folder, have. Here, the timestamp may include a generation time, a last modified time, and a last access time. For example, as shown in FIG. 4A, the file badge management unit 330 may generate a file badge for each user, which is defined through a time stamp for each user, You can update the per-user file-by-file badge whenever a fix occurs. 4B, the file badge management unit 330 can calculate and update the file badges of the files for each user based on the file badges for each file, which are updated in real time, as shown in FIG. 4 (b) 1 and 2 related to the files 1, 2 and 3 in the corresponding folder to the folder access terminal 120 if the user of the folder access terminal 120 requesting access to the folder access terminal 120 is the user A.

The file badge management unit 330 provides a file badge for each user to the folder access terminal 120 reflecting the file badges for each user of the corresponding user, The file badge for each of at least one file in the folder can be displayed together. For example, as shown in FIG. 7, when the folder access terminal 120 visualizes the file list of the [4th productivity] folder, the file badge management unit 330 determines whether the corresponding folder of the corresponding user [Choi Jae Ho] 0], [1], [2], and [3] via the file list first file badge symbol 722 with respect to each of the file [functional filter quality], [filter quality assurance scheme] 3] and [0], and in the case of the file badge [3] of [filter quality assurance measure], the user [Choi Jae Ho] Indicating that a total of three modifications occurred.

In one embodiment, the file management unit 330 may detect the access of the specific file by the corresponding user, update the file access time for each file, and update the file badge for each file of the corresponding user. For example, when the folder access terminal 120 of the user [Choi Jae-ho] is in the file list and the file badge management unit 330 opens or downloads the [filter quality assurance measure] in the file badge [3] The file badge of the corresponding file in the badge can be updated from [3] to [0].

The file badge management unit 330 cumulatively calculates the file badges per file for the corresponding folder of the user and the corresponding subfolder based on the file access time for each file and the file modification history for each file of the user, It can be reflected in the count. For example, as described above, the file badge management unit 330 can generate a file badge for each file on the basis of the file access time for each file of the user [Choi Jae Ho] and the file modification history for each file, , The file-by-file accumulation count [6] and the sub-folder [mass-production facility construction] sub-structure, which are calculated by cumulatively calculating the file-by-file basis for each folder [4. productivity] The file history accumulation count [2] may be displayed through the folder list first file badge accumulation count symbol 712 and the file list first file badge accumulation count symbol 722, respectively.

In one embodiment, the file badge management unit 330 can separately manage the file badge associated with the common file and the file badge associated with the shared notepad, respectively, if there is a shared notepad. The file badge management unit 330 may provide the folder access terminal 120 with a file badge for each file for each user in which the file badge related to the shared memo pad is managed separately so that the folder access terminal 120 can display the file badge separately, 7, the folder access terminal 120 searches the file list of the corresponding user through the file list first file badge accumulation count symbol 722 for the general file, based on the received file- A file badge related to the shared notepad with the access right of the corresponding user can be displayed through the file list second file badge accumulation count symbol 728 with respect to the shared notepad And the number of updates can be indicated.

The shared notepad management unit 340 may provide a shared notepad in the process of providing a file list and a file badge for each file by user. Here, the shared notepad can provide a shared notepad that is shared among at least one folder user and can include an associative link to a specific file in the folder and includes a revisable shareable memo. In one embodiment, the shared notepad management unit 340 manages the file list window 720 that realizes the corresponding file list in the process of indicating the file list related to the folder, and the shared notepad The window 730 may be associated and, for example, one of the two windows may be moved relative to the other as the window is moved through the user interface.

The shared notepad management unit 340 may generate a shared notepad related to the folder before providing the shared notepad. In one embodiment, the shared memo management unit 340 can create a shared notepad in the corresponding folder when the shared memo creation request is received by one of the folder users participating in the corresponding folder. In another embodiment, By default, when you create a shared notepad in the folder, you can create a shared notepad in that folder whenever you receive a request to create a shared notepad from a folder user.

When the shared notepad management unit 340 generates the shared notepad by the shared notepad creator corresponding to one of the folder users, the shared notepad management unit 340 can determine at least one shared memo participant participating in the corresponding shared notepad through user specification by the shared notepad creator have. Here, at least each of the shared memo participants may correspond to a folder user of the corresponding folder. In one embodiment, the shared notepad management unit 340 can browse the corresponding shared notepad to each of the at least one shared memo participant based on user-specified information about the browsable and modifiable persons included in the user specification by the shared notepad creator (E.g., read-only) or modifyable (e.g., read / write) rights that can be modified.

In one embodiment, if the request relating to user specification is performed on at least one user other than the folder participant, the shared memo managing unit 340 first performs the folder sharing invitation to each of the at least one user, Once the folder sharing invitation is approved, you can perform customization. In one embodiment, the shared notepad management unit 340 may set access rights to the shared notepad to all folder users when there is no separate user specification by the shared notepad creator.

The shared notepad management unit 340 may select a shared notepad permitted to be accessed by the user, and provide a list of shared notepad including the selected shared notepad and an access path to the folder access terminal 120. [ For example, if a plurality of shared notepads are created in the corresponding folder, the shared notepad management unit 340 can selectively provide only the shared notepad with the access right to the corresponding user. Accordingly, You will not be able to see the existence of the shared notepad.

The shared notepad management unit 340 can perform an operation according to the following embodiments when an associated link related to a specific file is created in the shared notepad.

In one embodiment, when the associated link to a specific file is created in the shared memo pad, the shared memo management unit 340 detects the modification of the specific file by the arbitrary folder access terminal 120 generated after that point in time, You can update the user-independent association file modification history for the file. For example, the shared notepad management unit 340 notifies the sharing notepad of the corresponding folder [the list of the filter quality assurance creator] that the file [filter quality assurance measure] The user can create and update a user-independent file modification history related to the file by detecting the modification of the file after the creation of the associated link. That is, in this case, the specific file linked to the shared notepad corresponds to the original file which is in the corresponding folder and reflects the latest modification based on the current point, and the file modification for the specific file is reflected in the file modification history for each user .

In another embodiment, the shared notepad management unit 340 may include a file copy of the specific file in the shared notepad at the time when an associated link to the specific file is created in the shared notepad. For example, when the associated link related to the file [filter quality assurance measure] is created in the shared notepad [filter quality assurance plan author] of the corresponding folder, the shared notepad management unit 340 generates a corresponding file [ Filter quality assurance measures] can be created and stored in the corresponding shared memo, and the corresponding copy can be accessed through the corresponding association link. That is, in this case, the specific file linked to the shared notepad corresponds to the copy file copied based on the association point, so that the latest modification to the original file after the association point is not reflected. It is not reflected in the revision history of a star file.

When the shared memo pad is associated with a specific file through the associated link, the shared memo pad management unit 340 can control the specific file to be opened or modified only when the specific memo is accessed through the shared memo pad. For example, when the user accesses the file linked to the shared notepad through the file list, the shared notepad management unit 340 can restrict the user to open or download the file only for the read only, It can be controlled so that it can be opened or downloaded so that it can be modified only when the file is accessed through the file.

The shared notepad management unit 340 can manage the shared notes as a sequential list that is vectorized in time series. This will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.
