The action of<information handling system 〉
The below action of the information handling system of explanation present embodiment.
<elemental motion 〉
The information handling system of present embodiment is moved according to the basic step shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 (a) and (b) usually.The content of handling is corresponding to the differentiation result of indication connecting portion 11, and is to use main frame 20 coordinate that computing obtains according to the coordinate pattern to decide and be performed.
All processing are by being begun by main frame 20 indication client computer 10.
Here, whether the part of indicating according to main frame 20 is the indication connecting portion 11 of client computer 10, has two kinds of situations.Can whether be activated according to communication and determine both of these case respectively by indication connecting portion 11.Promptly when detecting the preceding end in contact of operation instruction unit 28, main frame 20 utilizes and connects control part 22, and according to the electric power from power supply 26, the alternating current that will include control signal puts on aerial coil.At this moment, when the coil electromagnetism that is had when the indication connecting portion 11 of coil and the client computer 10 of indication connecting portion 21 is coupled,, also detect connection according to the variation of impedance or based on the initial response of client computer/agreement at the indication connecting portion 21 of main frame 20.On the other hand, if indication connecting portion 11,21 is not mutually near reaching in the specialized range, then impedance does not change or does not produce initial response, does not still detect connection.
Do not detect at the appointed time under the situation of connection, main frame 20 is handled separately as shown in Figure 2.On the other hand, when detecting when connecting, then main frame 20 and client computer 10 as Fig. 3 (a),
(b) shown in, associated treatment is carried out on mutual communication limit, limit.
At first describe having indicated connecting portion 11 situation in addition with reference to Fig. 2.In this case, even the user uses the preceding end in contact client computer 10 that is operatively connected portion 28, the alternating current that the connection control part 22 of main frame 20 will comprise control signal puts on aerial coil, and also be not activated (step S101) communicates by letter.
In this case, 20 executing location of main frame detect and storage.Just, main frame 20 utilizes infrared ray be operatively connected on the surface of the indicated client computer 10 of the front end of portion 28 by 23 pairs of light illuminating parts to shine infrared ray, accept its reflected light, be subjected to the light result to observation unit 29 outputs.Then, the light result that is subjected to according to this output exports as testing result the coordinate pattern of indicating positions to operational part 30 by observation unit 29, by the represented coordinate of this coordinate pattern of operational part 30 computings, stores this operation result (step S102, S103) successively.When these steps finished, main frame 20 for example drove not shown Vib. etc., tells the user to detect end (step S104), handled and indication EO (step S105).
Below, with reference to Fig. 3 (a) and (b) the situation of having indicated connecting portion 11 is described.In this case, the user uses the indication connecting portion 11 (step S201) of the preceding end in contact client computer 10 that is operatively connected portion 28, when the alternating current that will comprise control signal when the connection control part 22 of main frame 20 puts on aerial coil, and the communication between the indication connecting portion 11 activates (step S202, S301), here, according to the top described indication connecting portion 11 (step S203) of discerning activation, main frame 20 obtains its symbol.Thereby document process portion 25 indicates to the inquiry of reaction extraction unit 18 and this indication connecting portion 11 corresponding processing execution.
So, from response diagram, extract corresponding processing execution indication by reaction extraction unit 18 according to inquiry, this extraction result begins to carry out corresponding processing subroutine (step S204) by connecting control part 12, indicating connecting portion 11,21 to export to document process portion 25 (step S302) by document process portion 25.
As mentioned above, the processing of carrying out based on the processing execution indication in document process portion 25.Usually, this processing is the processing to the document that is showing, in document process portion 25 by indication connecting portion 11,21, connect control part 22 and obtain processing with the current document that shows in Memorability display body 15 through related information (process information) and document data from non-volatile memories portion 13, handle (step S205) according to this process information and document data.
According to the processing of carrying out, utilize the data that are stored in the coordinate testing result in the main frame 20 successively here.For example be equivalent to the user contacts the situation that indication connecting portion 11 is indicated contents processing after having indicated the document key element related with processing on the Memorability display body 15 in advance successively.At this moment when the processing of coordinate data, the retrieval of the information that 25 inquiries of document process portion and reaction extraction unit 18 are corresponding is with reference to as a result of and the document key element of exporting.Just, in the processing that document process portion 25 carries out, for example inciting somebody to action under the situation of document key element that showed on the indicated just now coordinate as its process object, data detect with reference to indicated just now coordinate figure from the coordinate of being stored in document process portion 25, utilize this coordinate figure, what shown document key element is to inquiry reaction extraction unit 18 in this position.Reaction extraction unit 18 is extracted corresponding document key element or dialogue key element according to inquiry in the response diagram of being stored from non-volatile memories portion 13, should extract the result and return to document process portion 25.
As the result of the processing of above such document that is showing, thinking has multiple result, but usually, through handling, some variation takes place show state.Under the situation that show state changes, the reaction treatment that should carry out when indication is also upgraded thereupon in addition.Be that document process portion 25 exports response diagram after upgrading and video data as required as the result who handles.Video data and the response diagram of output by indication connecting portion 21,11, be connected control part 12 and store (step S206, S207, S208, S209, S303, S304) in the non-volatile memories portion 13 into.At this moment, show that the video data that execution portion 17 will be stored in the non-volatile memories portion 13 successively is presented at (step S305) on the Memorability display body 15.
In the main frame 20, when above-mentioned steps finishes, for example drive not shown Vib. etc., tell the user to detect end (step S210), handle and indication EO (step S211, S306).
<page turning action 〉
Below, as along holding the concrete processing example of above-mentioned elemental motion, the page turning action is described.This action is that indication connecting portion 11 that moves or the indication operation that is used to specify the indication connecting portion 11 that moves to prevpage are performed to being used to specify downward one page according to the user.Below the explanation user has been assigned with the situation of the indication connecting portion 11 of Fig. 1 topmost that downward one page moves with the preceding end in contact of operating instruction unit 28.
In this example, because indication indication connecting portion 11, therefore according to the above, shown in Fig. 3 (a) and (b), be activated (step S201, S202, S301) communicates by letter.According to the indication connecting portion 11 (step S203) that top described identification activates, main frame 20 obtains its symbol.Then, document process portion 25 inquiry reaction extraction units 18 and this indication connecting portion 11 corresponding processing execution are indicated.
So, from response diagram, extract corresponding processing execution indication according to inquiry by reaction extraction unit 18.In this example, extract and show the execution indication of one page down, this extraction result carries out corresponding processing subroutine (step S204, S205) by connecting control part 12, indicating connecting portion 11,21 to export to document process portion 25 (step S302) by document process portion 25.Utilize this processing subroutine, obtain and current relevant information (process information) and the document data of the page that is presented on the Memorability display body 15 from non-volatile memories portion 13 by indication connecting portion 11,21, connection control part 22, carry out the configuration process of one page down according to this process information and document data, generate the response diagram of one page down, store (rewriting response diagram) in the non-volatile memories portion 13 into by indication connecting portion 21,11, connection control part 12.In addition, after response diagram is rewritten, generate the video data of one page down, be stored in non-volatile memories portion 13 (step S206, S207, S208, S209, S303, S304) by indication connecting portion 21,11, connection control part 12.
And, show that the video data that execution portion 17 will be stored in this non-volatile memories portion 13 is presented at (step S305, S210, S211, S306) on the Memorability display body 15.
Also have, do not need to extract the step of key element in this processing from coordinate.
The extraction action of<character string 〉
Below, as routine along another concrete processing of holding above-mentioned elemental motion, the extraction action of description character string.This action is after the user has indicated the starting point and terminal point of at first wanting the display string that extracts successively, and indication is used to specify indication connecting portion 11 such sequence of operations that character string extracts and is performed.
At first, in order to specify the character string that becomes object, when the user with the preceding end in contact of operation instruction unit 28 during as the starting point (Memorability display body 15) of the character string of extracting object, communication be not activated (step S101) as shown in Figure 2 in this case.Therefore, be subjected to the 23 pairs of pixel that is contacted irradiations of light illuminating part infrared ray, be subjected to the light result to observation unit 29 outputs by infrared ray.And, by observation unit 29 according to this output be subjected to the light result, the coordinate pattern of described pixel is exported to operational part 30 as testing result, by the represented coordinate of this coordinate pattern of operational part 30 computings, store this operation result (step S102, S103), step finishes (step S104, S105).
After this similarly, when the user with the preceding end in contact of operation instruction unit 28 during as the terminal point of the character string of extracting object, be not activated (step S101) as shown in Figure 2 similarly communicates by letter, be subjected to light illuminating part 23, observation unit 29, operational part 30 that this terminal point coordinate is stored in operational part 30 by infrared ray, and the step end (step S102~S105).
At last, during indication connecting portion 11 when the user has been assigned with among Fig. 1 of extraction of execution character string with the preceding end in contact of operation instruction unit 28 in the middle of, by indication connecting portion 11, shown in Fig. 3 (a) and (b), same with aforementioned page turning action, activate communication (step S201, S202, S301).According to the indication connecting portion 11 (step S203) that top described identification is activated, main frame 20 obtains its symbol.After this document process portion 25 indicates to the inquiry of reaction extraction unit 18 and this indication connecting portion 11 corresponding processing execution.
So, from response diagram, extract corresponding processing execution indication according to inquiry by reaction extraction unit 18.In this example, extract and be used to carry out the execution indication that character string is extracted, this extraction result carries out corresponding processing subroutine (step S204, S205) by connecting control part 12, indicating connecting portion 11,21 to export to document process portion 25 (step S302) by document process portion 25.Document process portion 25 handles subroutine by carrying out this, obtain indicated coordinate successively from operational part 30, inquire the document key element that on this coordinate, shows to reaction extraction unit 18, to be stored in the main frame 20 as output by the string data that reaction extraction unit 18 is extracted, step finishes (step S206~S211, S303, S304~S306).Also have, the extraction of document key element realizes by following dual mode: the reference indication of document data is recorded in response diagram, reaction extraction unit 18 is extracted with reference to document data, perhaps will extract indication and be documented in the response diagram, and need not to extract with reference to document data with the form of following the document key element.Also have, carry out under the situation of this processing, not update displayed data or response diagram.
(1) like this, in the information handling system 1 of present embodiment, document data and response diagram are stored in client computer 10, for the document data that on the client computer 10 that to communicate by letter that becomes, shows, obtain the document data from client computer 10, the document data are carried out by indication connecting portion that front end the contacted 11 corresponding processing subroutines of response diagram with operation instruction unit 28.Thus, even carried out operation contemplated when following situation, promptly for example keeping displaying contents constant, as paper, place a period of time, work on afterwards or contemplated operation when passing to the situation of use of the so a plurality of client computer 10 of other user, by operation instruction unit 11 with operation instruction unit 28 indication client computer 10, can carry out suitable processing according to the response diagram of being stored in the client computer 10, can recursively advance processing procedure with reference to treatment state or document data limit in the limit.
In addition,, carry out the main frame of handling 20 and change,, can transfer the possession of or lend other user easily also completely without problem even for example by client computer 10 is passed to other user.
Have again, extract from response diagram and document data by the reaction extraction unit 18 of client computer 10 and carry out indication or document data, should extract the result and send to main frame 20.Therefore, can carry out efficiently by indicating the reaction extraction processing of connecting portion 11,21.
(2) in addition, the indicating positions of detecting operation instruction unit 28 carries out the extraction action of character string according to this testing result.Therefore, the display string by being wanted by 28 indications of operation instruction unit to extract can carry out suitable processing according to this character string.
(3) have again, can detect the coordinate pattern on the indicating positions that is printed on operation instruction unit 28, detect described coordinate by the operational part 30 of main frame 20 according to this testing result with the observation unit 29 of main frame 20.Therefore, client computer 10 needn't be moved fully on one's own initiative, and extremely cheap system can be provided, and can advance many uses.
(4) in addition, according to the video data in the non-volatile memories portion 13 that is stored in client computer 10, make the demonstration execution portion 17 of client computer 10 rewrite the show state of Memorability display body 15.Therefore, can make client computer 10 carry out the rewriting of the Memorability display body 15 of self, carry out demonstration efficiently by indication connecting portion 11,21.
(5) have again, owing to the response diagram in the non-volatile memories portion 13 of rewriting the client computer 10 that being stored in becomes can communicate by letter according to the response diagram of main frame 20 generations, so can carry out suitable processing according to the response diagram that is stored in the client computer 10.
(6) after having rewritten the response diagram that is stored in the non-volatile memories portion 13, begin to rewrite the show state of the Memorability display body 15 of client computer 10.Therefore, the user who for example sees the part of the displaying contents of rewriting in the rewriting process of show state does not wait rewriting to finish, when having indicated operation instruction unit 28 again, can carry out the suitable processing that conforms with user view at indication connecting portion 11 according to its displaying contents.
(7) have, the supply of accepting electric power from the power supply 26 of main frame 20 makes client computer 10 actions again.Therefore, main frame 20 need not attended operation in advance, only communicate by letter with the client computer 10 that needs, in addition, owing to can make its action, so can get rid of meaningless step to greatest extent.
Also have, video data or response diagram that main frame 20 is generated have been shown in the present embodiment have all exported to the example of client computer 10, but be not limited thereto.For example, also can only export the change part of video datas or response diagram to client computer 10.Like this, can cut down from the quantity of information of main frame 20 to client computer 10 outputs, be ideal.
Concrete, with video data be divided into the video data of harsh one-tenth and more new data generate, export more new data from 20 in main frame to client computer 10, only the general more new data append the non-volatile memories portion 13 that is stored in client computer 10 successively.And show execution portion 17 according to this more new data drive Memorability display body 15 (rewriting) partly.
In addition, carry out reflecting on the video data in being stored in non-volatile memories portion 13 that the renewal of new data is more handled, can reflect that the video data behind the new data more drives whole Memorability display body 15 according to this.
Have, in response diagram, the response diagram and the renewal figure that are divided into harsh one-tenth generate again, and export renewal from 20 in main frame to client computer 10 and scheme, and only renewal figure are appended the non-volatile memories portion 13 that is stored in client computer 10 successively.And, when document process portion 25 handles in the extraction of carrying out character string, preferentially utilize up-to-date renewal figure.
In addition, carry out on the response diagram in being stored in client computer 10 renewal that reflection renewal figure upgrades and handle, can utilize the response diagram integral body after this renewal.
Have again, in the above, for whether having indicated the differentiation of connecting portion 11 also can adopt other method.For example, same coordinate pattern on the surface that also is provided with on the indication connecting portion 11 with Memorability display body 15, at first main frame 20 is obtained coordinate figure, and under this coordinate figure was in situation in the specialized range, being judged as was indication connecting portion 11, can start communication.Like this, needn't all try to carry out coil-induced, can form the structure of power saving each indication.
Differentiating when having indicated connecting portion 11, also can again the coordinate figure based on the coordinate pattern be used for processing.For example when the area of indicating connecting portion 11 is bigger than the front end of indicating connecting portion 21, also can differentiate the indicating positions in the scope of indicating connecting portion 11 subtly.
In addition, though show the example that the reaction extraction unit 18 of client computer 10 is only extracted necessary information and output, be not limited to this.For example can go back output-response figure integral body, extract the required information of main frame 20 from not only output document data of client computer 10.At this moment,, can carry out buffer memory, so that condition in accordance with regulations keeps document data or response diagram at main frame 20 for the situation of the same client computer 10 of continuous processing is prepared.
<embodiment 2 〉
Embodiment 2 based on main frame type infosystem of the present invention below is described.
This embodiment 2 utilizes infrared ray to replace coil, carries out the information input and output between client computer 10 and the main frame 20, is different from aforesaid embodiment 1 in this.
Specifically as shown in Figure 4, the indication connecting portion 11 of client computer 10 has the coil that infrared ray is subjected to light illuminating part (optical communications module 19) to replace the information input and output to use.In addition, the indication connecting portion 21 of main frame 20 has infrared ray and is subjected to light illuminating part (illuminating part=light transmission/lighting unit 31, light accepting part=light acceptance/image unit 32), carries out the input and output of information, replaces coil.
Also have, indication connecting portion 11,21 is the same with above-mentioned embodiment 1, the coil (the electromagnetic coupled portion (sending electric portion/power receiving section) of the usefulness of powering) with the transmitting-receiving usefulness of carrying out electric power.
Like this, in the information handling system 1 of present embodiment, between client computer 10 and main frame 20, carry out the input and output of information with infrared ray.Therefore, can carry out (16Mbps) communication at a high speed with low-power consumption.In addition, when electromagnetic coupled portion being set client computer 10 is powered, also minimum to the influence of communication.Have again, if to the infrared ray of the coordinate pattern (location information code) that is used for optically read client computer 10 be subjected to light illuminating part 23 illumination or image pickup part dual-purpose light transmissions/lighting unit 31, reach light-receiving/image unit 32, then can reduce the parts number of packages, suppress cost, also can realize operating simultaneously the miniaturization of instruction unit 28.
<embodiment 3 〉
Embodiment 3 based on main frame type infosystem of the present invention below is described.
Existing based on main frame type infosystem in, usually main frame 20 a long way off, in addition, main frame 20 utilizes multitask/multithreading to handle, and carries out a plurality of processing simultaneously, so do not show the information of specific client computer 10.
But main frame 20 is very near client computer 10, and in addition, the client computer 10 of utilizing relative so thicker time granularity with client computer 10 to come the hand-off process object is so hope can be pointed out the information of particular procedure in main frame 20.
Thereby, in this embodiment 3, as shown in Figure 5, configuration information display part 33 on the operation instruction unit 28 of main frame 20, the identification id of the client computer that front end contacted 10 of display operation instruction unit 28.Therefore, under the situation of utilizing a plurality of client computer 10, useful for user's affirmation work.As the method for differentiating client computer 10, the ID that is used in differentiation coordinate pattern or indication connecting portion 11 at each client computer 10 is different.In addition, can when communication, give station ID and carry out message switch.
In addition, if information display section 33 show situation that video datas or response diagram transmit to client computer 10 or each the time direction of transfer (main frame 20 → client computer 10 or client computer 10 → main frame 20) etc., then help the user to grasp the progress situation of operation, the front end that can prevent operation instruction unit 28 in transmission leaves the so unconscious operation of client computer 10.Having, about the client computer 10 in the operation, carry out such information when if show last processing, is very useful for grasp/review operation history then.
Also have, because only generation at short notice of the demonstration request of these information, so for Memorability display body 15 and improper, but in main frame 20 no such problems, be suitable.
In addition, in the present embodiment, show example, but be not limited to this at the operation instruction unit 28 configuration information display parts 33 of main frame 20.For example also can be located at the main part of main frame 20.
More than, in the above-described embodiment, the display device that the Memorability display body 15 of Fig. 1 constitutes in the claim, below same, the non-volatile memories portion 13 of Fig. 1 constitutes document storing unit, response diagram storage unit and video data storage unit, the indication connecting portion 11 of Fig. 1 constitutes the client-side linkage unit, the indication operating portion 28 of Fig. 1 constitutes the host computer side linkage unit, the position detection part 24 of Fig. 1, observation unit 29 and operational part 30 constitute position detection unit, the document process portion 25 of Fig. 1 constitutes document data and obtains the unit, the document process portion 25 of Fig. 1 constitutes the processing execution unit, and the handling part 14 of Fig. 1 and demonstration execution portion 17 constitute show states and rewrite unit.
Also have, of the present inventionly be not limited to the content of above-mentioned embodiment, in the scope that does not break away from aim of the present invention, can do suitable change based on main frame type infosystem, client computer, main frame, infosystem, display terminal and control device.
For example, in the past, in based on main frame type system, people expected that client computer 10 had the independently function of the network terminal of conduct.So each client computer 10 needs to install user interface process function or the so advanced standalone feature of network termination function respectively, thereby can't cut down manufacturing cost and handling cost fully.
Therefore, for example can provide available information service (data storage, network service) from the document process portion 25 of main frame 10.Like this, the application program of document process portion 25 can be carried out various senior processing with comparalive ease.
