At step S1308, dynamic environment information capture network manager 205 is given associate device 5 with the message informing that dynamic environment information has changed.Carry out later processing by associate device 5.
Description by the back can be understood, and static environment information that the present invention is collected and dynamic environment information are for setting up the interrelated effect of playing bridge for each user in the real world with more available devices.
Introduced the collection and treatment of environmental information above.To introduce the operation that a user object and one or more available device object are associated below.
To introduce in detail below according to three kinds of modes of setting up incidence relation of the present invention.
First kind of mode is to set up incidence relation by task equipment (PD) between user object and device object.
As previously mentioned, store the information of its task equipment that has in the user object storer 202 under task equipment (PD) data item of each user object.And in the device object storer 206 storage be device object information.
Therefore associate device 208 is with the type and the identifier of the task equipment under the task equipment data item of user object, mate with type and identifier under the essential information data item of each device object, therefrom find out and device object that this user object has identical information, thereby between this user object and this device object, set up association.
For example, a user A in the real world has a task equipment: the mobile phone X with Bluetooth function.Because in virtual world, user object A1 that creates for this user A and the mobile phone object X1 that creates for this mobile phone X comprise type and the telephone number information of this mobile phone X, so associate device 208 can associate this user object A1 and mobile phone object X1 with type and the telephone number information that mobile phone object X1 has identical mobile phone by identifying user object A1.
Though carry out related by the type of utilizing task equipment with identifier information above, but the information that can also use under the essential information data item of task equipment object other to be used to identify this task equipment is carried out association, as long as by mating user and task equipment are associated.
In order to reduce related workload, associate device 208 of the present invention can also carry out filter operation before operation associated, earlier some equipment was filtered away according to some condition, thereby no longer these equipment was operated in operation associated carrying out.For example, the device object that status information is shown as " not online " filters away, does not have an ability to work because these equipment are current.But this filtration step not necessarily.
According to above-mentioned interrelational form, associate device 208 of the present invention can get up a user object and relevant device object association by the task equipment identifying information.
User object A among Figure 14 and belong to this user's mobile phone device object A ' and associate by first kind of mode.
The second way is to utilize physiological characteristic data to set up incidence relation between user object and device object.
As previously mentioned, when a user registers, User Manager 200 will be put into its physiological characteristic information under the physiological characteristic data item of its user object.
And many dynamic environment information capture networks also can be caught and sensing user's physiological characteristic information.For example catch the face-image that network can be caught the user, catch the sound characteristic that network can be caught the user by what the voice capturing device constituted by what camera apparatus constituted.And as mentioned above, these are caught the dynamic environment information that network catches and all are stored in the dynamic environment information-storing device 207.
Therefore associate device 208 is with the physiological characteristic data under the physiological characteristic data item of user object, mate with the dynamic environment information of being stored in the dynamic environment information-storing device 207, therefrom find out the one or more device objects (or catching network) that have one or more identical physiological characteristic data with this user object, thereby between this user object and corresponding apparatus object, set up association.
For example, user object A among Figure 15 and video camera apparatus object C ' associate by the second way.
On the basis of above-mentioned two kinds of interrelational forms, can also be by utilizing static environment information or dynamic environment information with user object A and more equipment object association.
For example, in Figure 14, when associate device 208 for user object A and mobile telephone equipment object A ' set up related after, associate device 208 can also be a bridge with this mobile telephone equipment object A ', sets up association between this user object and the more equipment object in conjunction with the static state of collecting/dynamic environment information.For example, the mobile telephone equipment object A ' that has stored the GSM network provided in dynamic environment information-storing device 207 is arranged in certain meeting room of company; Also have a printer resource in this meeting room and stored in static environment information-storing device 203, then associate device 208 is set up related at user object A with this printer resource according to these information.
It is that user object is set up more related example that the right side of Figure 14 shows environment for use information.Associate device 208 is according to the dynamic environment information that network is collected of catching from the agent apparatus that comprises mobile telephone equipment object A ', with user's mobile phone device object A ' is bridge, at user object A and set up related between equipment D ', equipment E ' that network catches and the equipment F ' by catching of the agent apparatus place of this mobile phone.
It is that user object is set up more related example that the right side of Figure 15 shows environment for use information.Associate device 208 is according to from the dynamic environment information that network is collected of catching by the agent apparatus place of video camera apparatus object C ', with video camera apparatus object C ' is bridge, at user object A and by equipment H ', the equipment I of catching network acquisition at the agent apparatus place of this video camera apparatus object C ' ' and equipment J ' between set up related.
The third interrelational form is to set up incidence relation by the social relationships data between user object and device object.
As previously mentioned, when the user registers, if possible, User Manager 200 will be put into its social relationships information under the social relationships data item of its user object.
Figure 16 shows by the social relationships data item and set up related synoptic diagram between user object and device object.
For example, if associate device 208 for user B sets up and some device objects, the incidence relation of device object K ', L ' and M ' for example.If user A and user B have some social relationships, then associate device 208 is by the information under the social relationships data item of user A object, set up the relation between user A and the user B, and and then and and user B set up between those device objects K ', the L ' of incidence relation and the M ' and set up incidence relation.
By the operation of associate device 208, be that a user object is set up the incidence relation with one or more available devices objects.
It should be noted that the incidence relation of these associate device 208 available devices objects that set up for user object and one or more also may change.For example, when new device object was created, associate device 208 associated this new device object with corresponding user object.When static state/when dynamic environment information changes, this associate device 208 will be rebuild the incidence relation of corresponding user object or revise according to the environmental information after this variation.Any influence that may cause the incidence relation of user object and device object all will trigger this associate device 208 incidence relation of corresponding user object is rebuild or revised.Therefore, associate device 208 can be kept the incidence relation of up-to-date user object and available devices object.
Figure 17 A-17C illustrates the operation associated processing procedure of associate device.
At step S1700, associate device 208 monitors, judges whether to receive registration or Notification of Changes and whether receive the environmental information Notification of Changes from static state/dynamic environment information manager 201,205 from User Manager 200 or physical equipment manager 204.
