Figure 18 shows the exemplary demonstration of content level and group level.In Figure 18, according to the mode of as shown in figure 22 year, month, day data have been carried out the grouping of level formula, wherein, year unit shows that 1801 is group levels 1, and month unit shows that 1802 is group levels 2, and day unit shows that 1803 is group levels 3.Figure 18 also comprises the demonstration 1804 that shows the content level.Can switch these demonstrations by the level assignment key 1406 to 1409 of operation remote controllers 102.In the demonstration of the group icon of these levels, the data presented icon is maximum in the group icon in year unit's demonstration 1801, next is to show data presented icon in the group icon shown in 1802 in moon unit, and shows that in day unit the data presented icon is minimum in the group icon shown in 1803.In other words, level high more (upper), then the data icon of the content of data presented group is many more in group icon.Should be noted that hypothesis is provided with the quantity of data presented icon in the group icon at each level (respectively organizing level).
Should be noted that when moving to the next level, among the content that in the indicated data set of a plurality of data sets or the icon paid close attention to when mobile, comprises, the icon that first icon in the array is regarded as paying close attention to.In addition, when moving to upper level, comprise the icon that the icon of the data set of the indicated interior perhaps data set of the icon paid close attention to when mobile is regarded as paying close attention to.In addition, in each level, need not enter upper level and, can move the icon of concern by rolling picture to the left or to the right independently.In other words, can outside the scope of the data set in the upper level that comprises data indicated or data set, change the icon of concern successively according to the array order by the icon of paying close attention to.
Figure 19, Figure 20 and Figure 21 show the example of switching the demonstration between the level.Figure 19 shows the situation that switches to group level 1 from group level 3.Show in 1901 in day unit's (group level 3), on April 1st, 2004 was shown as the group icon 1905 of the icon of paying close attention to.This demonstration is switched to the demonstration (year unit shows 1902) of group level 1.In this case, in the demonstration of group icon 1909 in 2004, be shown as data icon 1906 with group icon 1905 corresponding data icon before switching as the icon of paying close attention to.Here, different with other data icon, data icon 1906 is shown as the data icon with different background color, and is presented at the pre-position.In addition, data icon 1906 is to choose among the data icon shown from group icon 1905.
Similarly, show in 1903, on November 1st, 2004 was shown as the group icon 1907 of the icon of paying close attention in day unit.This demonstration is switched to year demonstration 1904 of unit group level 1.Showing that the icon of concern is a group icon 1910 in 1904, these group icon 1910 expressions comprise by before switching as 2004 annual data groups of the indicated data set of the group icon 1907 of the icon of paying close attention to.In this case, in the demonstration of group icon 1910 in 2004, be shown as data icon 1908 with the group icon 1907 corresponding data icon as the icon of paying close attention to before the switching.Here, different with other data icon, data icon 1908 is shown as the data icon with different background color, and is presented at the pre-position.In addition, shown data icon 1908 is to choose among the data icon shown from group icon 1907.
A will obtain A by following formula as the quantity of data icon 1906 data presented icons.
A=C*B/D
Wherein:
The data strip number that makes B serve as reasons in the group level 3 and to comprise as in the indicated data set of the group icon 1905 of the icon of paying close attention to;
Make that C is the quantity of data presented icon in the group icon of group in the level 1; And
Make serve as reasons data strip number in the indicated data set of the group icon 1909 of group in the level 1 of D.
Specifically, if level has switched to upper level, then want the ratio of the quantity of data presented icon in the group icon based on the level before and after switching, determine quantity by the data icon of extracting in the data icon of group icon generation unit 1311 from switch the icon that is presented at concern before.Then, the data icon of being extracted is used as the data icon that constitutes the group icon after switching, and shows the data icon of extracting the icon of concern before switching in the mode that is different from other data icon.
Group icon generation unit 1311 will be arranged in the array as the 1701-1 to 1702-M among Figure 17 by the content in group icon 1905 and the 1907 indicated data sets, and these contents are divided into A group.Then, group icon generation unit 1311 extracts corresponding A data icon 1602 as selected data icon.Like this, from as among the data presented icon the group icon 1905 and 1907 of the icon of paying close attention to, be extracted in data presented icon 1906 and 1908 in the icon of organizing the concern in the level 1, data icon 1906 and 1908 is shown as the data icon with different background color.Data icon 1906 and 1908 is arranged on the position according to the array rank order, and is included in the switching group icon afterwards.Should be noted that the data icon that will be presented in the group icon of organizing level 1 also is by extracting in the data icon that constitutes group icon for other data sets in the group level 3.
According to above processing, the group icon that shows after switching makes it possible to confirm position viewed before switching and scope (scope and the position of the icon of paying close attention to before switching).
Figure 20 shows the situation that switches to group level 1 from group level 3, and the situation that switches to group level 2 from group level 3.Show in 2001 in day unit, on April 1st, 2004 was shown as the group icon 2005 of the icon of paying close attention to.This demonstration is switched to a year unit group level show 2002.Thereby group icons 2009 in 2004 become the icon of concern.In this case, be displayed in the demonstration of group icon 2009 in 2004 with the corresponding data icon 2006 of icon (group icon 2005) of switching concern before.Described in Figure 19, data icon 2006 is presented at the pre-position, and is shown as the data icon with different background color, so that make it possible to they and other data icon is made a distinction.In addition, as mentioned above, shown data icon 2006 is to choose among the data presented icon from the icon of paying close attention to (group icon 2005).
In addition, show in 2003, on April 1st, 2004 was shown as the group icon 2007 of the icon of paying close attention in day unit.This demonstration is switched to a moon unit group level show 2004.Thereby in April, 2004, group icon 2010 became the icon of concern.In this case, with switch before the corresponding data icon 2008 of icon (group icon 2007) of concern be presented in the demonstration of group icon 2010 in April, 2004.As shown in figure 20, data icon 2008 is presented at the pre-position, and is shown as the data icon with different background color, so that make it possible to they and other data icon is made a distinction.In addition, shown data icon 2008 is as choosing among the data presented icon the group icon 2007 of the icon of paying close attention to before switching.
E is a quantity of wanting data presented icon 2008 in 2004 showing, obtains E by following formula.
E=G*F/H
Wherein:
Make F be with group icon 2007 corresponding data sets as the icon of the concern of group in the level 3 in the data strip number that comprises;
Make that G is the quantity of data presented icon in the group icon of group level 2; And
Make serve as reasons data strip number in the indicated data set of the group icon 2010 of group in the level 2 of H.
According to extracting E bar data among the method described in Figure 17, the F bar data from group icon 2007, and be data icon with different background color with the data presentation of being extracted.In addition, with the data icon extracted according to data icon array series arrangement after switching in the shown group icon, the data icon of being extracted constitutes a part of switching group icon afterwards.
Like this, showing 2002 and show in 2004 that shown number of icons depends on the level that is switched to, result, position and the scope just browsed before can confirming to switch at each level (level of detail).
Figure 21 shows the situation that switches to group level 1 from the content level, and the situation that switches to group level 1 from group level 3.Show in 2101 at plereme, suppose that the icon of paying close attention to is the data icon 2105 of the data in the group on April 1st, 2004.The content level is shown that the 2101 year units that switch to group level 1 show 2102.In this case, group icon 2109 in 2004 becomes the icon of concern.Then, in the demonstration of group icon 2109, and before switching, be shown as data icon 2106 among Figure 21 as the data icon 2105 corresponding data icon of the icon of paying close attention to.Data icon 2106 is presented at the pre-position, and is shown as the data icon with different background color, so that it and other data icon can be made a distinction.In addition, data presented is displayed in the data icon 2106 in the icon of paying close attention to (data icon 2105).
In addition, show in 2103, on November 1st, 2004 was shown as the group icon 2107 of the icon of paying close attention in the day unit of group level 3.The year unit that this demonstration is switched to group level 1 shows 2104.In this case, described in Figure 19 and 20, group icons 2110 in 2004 become the icon of concern as top.Then, in the demonstration of group icon 2110, be shown as data icon 2108 with the group icon 2107 corresponding data icon as the icon of paying close attention to before the switching.Data icon 2108 is presented at the pre-position, and is shown as the data icon with different background color, so that make it possible to they and other data icon is made a distinction.In addition, data icon 2108 is as choosing among the data presented icon the group icon 2107 of the icon of paying close attention to before switching.Like this, when when the content layer level is switched, have only one with switch before the corresponding data icon 2106 of icon of concern, when when group level 3 is switched, have a plurality of with switch before the corresponding data icon 2108 of icon of concern.In other words, the demonstration after switching is according to shown level before switching and difference.Therefore, this level just viewed before making it possible to discern and switching (content level among Figure 21 or group level 3).
Figure 22 shows the concept map of data hierarchy.In Figure 22, label 2211 to 2212 expressions year unit data group, label 2221 to 2224 expressions month unit data group, label 2231 to 2238 expressions day unit data group.Label 2241 to 2258 expression contents.From 2241 to 2242 content belongs to day data set 2231, and from 2231 to 2232 day data set belongs to moon data set 2221.In addition, from 2221 to 2222 moon data set belongs to annual data group 2211.Like this, come management data by data level administrative unit 1314 with hierarchy.In the content level, the icon of concern can move between 2241 and 2258.Specifically, the operation input according to from operating unit 204 outside the scope of the data set of rolling control module 1308 in upper level, changes the icon of concern successively according to the data array order.In addition, each organize benchmark group in the level (and the icon of paying close attention to corresponding group) can conversion between 2211 and 2212,2221 and 2224 and 2231 and 2238.
The detailed description of operation
The concrete operations of this device under several different situations are below described.
Figure 23 A and Figure 23 B are the process flow diagrams that is used for level move operation mobile between content level and group level that illustrates according to present embodiment.
At first, supposing to show is that group level shown in Figure 16 shows.In this state, when supressing the instruction key 303 to the right of remote controllers (step S2301), rolling control module 1308 is rolling picture (step S2302) left.Handle according to this, the icon of concern is from the group icon 1601-2 group icon 1601-3 that moves right.In addition, when supressing the instruction key 304 left of remote controllers (step S2303), rolling control module 1308 is rolling picture (step S2304) to the right.Handle according to this, the icon of concern is moved to the left to group icon 1601-1 from group icon 1601-2.
When supressing the level assignment key 1409 of remote controllers, indicative control unit 1309 determines to exist the instruction (step S2305) that moves to the content level.Then, indicative control unit 1309 obtain by before switching as first data (content) in the indicated data set of the group icon 1601-2 of the icon of paying close attention to.Then, indicative control unit 1309 and the corresponding data icon of the data that obtained are set to the icon (data icon 1524 among Figure 15) (step S2306) of the concern in the content level.Afterwards, indicative control unit 1309 switches to as shown in figure 15 content level (step S2307) with demonstration.
If the figure that pays close attention to indicates required content (step S2308 is for being), then browse end.Should be noted that in the present embodiment, in step S2308,, then show and the corresponding content of paying close attention to of icon if detected the corresponding input of push with " determining " key 305.
On the other hand, if the not shown required content of paying close attention to of icon is then come search content by rolling to move the icon of paying close attention to.Specifically, when supressing the instruction key 303 to the right of remote controllers 102 (step S2309), rolling control module 1308 is by rolling picture left, with the icon paid close attention to by data icon 1524 data icon 1525 (step S2310) that moves right.In addition, when supressing the instruction key 304 left of remote controllers 102 (step S2311), rolling control module 1308 passes through rolling picture to the right, and the icon of paying close attention to is moved to the left to data icon 1523 (step S2312) by data icon 1524.
In addition, when any key of the level assignment key 1406 of supressing remote controllers 102 in 1408 (step S2313), show that the group level that switches to appointment level as shown in figure 16 shows (step S2314).At this moment, shown in the data icon 2106 of Figure 21, indicative control unit 1309 shows the indicated content of icon by the concern in the group icon that will show after switching, and and then shows this content (step S2315) in the mode that is different from other data icon in the group icon.The icon of supposing concern shown in Figure 17 is included in the scope of 1701-P to 1702-P, and the display position of the data icon 2106 (Figure 21) in the group icon is the position 1602-P among Figure 16.
In addition, indicative control unit 1309 determine whether do not exist from the instruction key to the right 303 of remote controllers 102 or left under the situation of the rolling operation of instruction key 304, supress level assignment key 1409 (step S2316).If under the situation that does not have rolling operation, provided the instruction that moves to the content level, then the icon (data icon 1524) of the concern among Figure 15 is set to the icon (icon of when switching to the group level, paying close attention to) of the concern among the step S2314, and demonstration is switched to content level (step S2307).When in the group level shows, having received the rolling instruction, then begin re-treatment from step S2301.
This makes in the group icon in last hyte level, can identify the position of content just viewed in the content level.When moving to upper level, can by with group icon in the position relation of shown data icon, learn distance with other data.Also can freely move to required level, and, turn back to immediately then under the situation of content level mobile, can restart to browse from same position.
Figure 24 is the process flow diagram at the level move operation that does not move between the level on the same group of being used for that illustrates according to present embodiment.
At first, in group level shown in Figure 16 showed, when supressing the instruction key 303 to the right of remote controllers 102 (step S2401), rolling control module 1308 is rolling picture left.Thereby the icon of concern is from the group icon 1601-2 group icon 1601-3 (step S2402) that moves right.In addition, when supressing the instruction key 304 left of remote controllers 102 (step S2403), rolling control module 1308 is rolling picture to the right.Thereby the icon of concern is moved to the left to group icon 1601-1 (step S2404) from group icon 1601-2.
In addition, when supress remote controllers 102 with not (step S2405) during any key of the relevant level assignment key 1406 of level in 1408 on the same group, indicative control unit 1309 determines whether the mobile destinations according to the shifting bond(s) of being pressed are the next levels.If mobile destination is the next level, then indicative control unit 1309 obtains to belong to data set or the data by after the switching of the indicated data set of the icon of the concern before switching.The icon (step S2406) of the concern after the data set that is obtained or first data among the data are set to switch.Then, indicative control unit 1309 switches to demonstration and specifies level (group level) (step S2407).For example, in Figure 22, when when first level switches to the 3rd level, and when being data set 2211 with the corresponding data set of paying close attention to of icon, the icon of concern is set to 2231.Afterwards, processing turns back to step S2401.Should be noted that and to use level assignment key 1406 to 1409, carry out the switching of taking office the level of anticipating from any level.
Thereby, in the level that is switched to, can also be by the icon that rolls to move to pay close attention to, and search content.Specifically, when supressing the instruction key 303 to the right of remote controllers 102 (step S2401), rolling control module 1308 is by rolling picture left, with the icon paid close attention to by the group icon 1601-2 group icon 1601-3 (step S2402) that moves right.In addition, when supressing the instruction key 304 left of remote controllers 102 (step S2403), rolling control module 1308 passes through rolling picture to the right, and the icon of paying close attention to is moved to the left to group icon 1601-1 (step S2404) by group icon 1601-2.
In addition, when the level assignment key 1406 of supressing remote controllers 102 in 1408 any key and this be when moving to the instruction of upper level, handle to enter into step S2408 from step S2405.The designated groups level that indicative control unit 1309 switches to as shown in figure 16 shows (step S2408).At this moment, the quantity of the data icon of from the icon of paying close attention to, selecting in the data presented icon, be with group icon after switching in want the corresponding quantity of quantity (step S2409) of data presented icon.Depend on the level that is switched to, shown in the show state of data icon among Figure 20 2006 and data icon 2008, indicative control unit 1309 is presented in the group icon that will show after switching then data presented icon in the icon of the concern in the level before switching.Like this, in group icon, indicative control unit 1309 shows the data icon of the group icon that belongs to the icon that conduct is paid close attention to before switching, so that these data icon can make a distinction (step S2410) with other data icon.In addition, comprise and the group icon of the corresponding data icon of icon of switching concern before, after switching, be set to the icon of paying close attention to immediately.
In addition, indicative control unit 1309 determines after demonstration has switched to upper level whether the shifting bond(s) of level was carrying out be pressed before the rolling operation (step S2411) before being used on the remote controllers 102 switched to and move.Under the situation of determining "Yes", the icon of concern is set to the icon of the concern of step S2405, and demonstration is switched to designated groups level (step S2407).On the other hand, if the group level after switching has received the instruction of rolling in showing, then begin re-treatment from step S2401.
More than handle making in the group icon of last hyte level, can identify the scope of content just viewed in the group level.When moving to upper level, can by with group icon in the position relation of shown data icon, learn distance with other data.Also can freely move to required level, and, turn back to immediately then under the situation of original set level mobile, can restart to browse from same position.
Though level is creating such as the date unit of year, month, day in above embodiment,, can increase the quantity of level by further increase chronomere.In addition, can the position-based metadata create level, can relate to the level of creating under the situation of music such as artist, special edition and melody, and can manage these levels such as country, province and place name.In addition, can create group according to the bar number of content.As the result of the content bar number in user's change group, between level, carry out moving up and down.
In addition, though by be presented at the data icon of browsed content in the last level with different background colors, the scope and the position of this class content in the group icon of upper level, have been indicated, but, can change the outward appearance of this class data icon in the demonstration by adding frame, means such as varying sized.
In addition, can come the scope and the position of this class content of indication in the group icon of upper level by changing the color of the data icon of browsed content in the last level that shows according to original hierarchical.Like this, after moving to upper level, browsed which level before can knowing clearly.
In above structure, when someone can not know own position in concrete the next level, this people can go to upper level and find out the summary of all data and the position of oneself clearly.Can also know this people need move how far could arrive required content near.In addition, can determine the current scope that just is being identified.
In addition, by showing the more multidata icon in the group icon when forwarding upper level to, the bar number of the data in the bar number of shown content and the data set is corresponding, thereby makes it possible to more clearly understand the summary of data.
In addition, can when freely skipping level, switch demonstration, and can easily turn back to the original position and continue to carry out visual search.In other words, can switch to level arbitrarily from level arbitrarily, rather than can only between shown level, switch according to the order of level.As to the substituting of the level of detail that changes the content group gradually, can be with required level of detail displaying contents group, thus make it possible to switch at short notice picture with required level of detail.
In addition, can when using display frame effectively, know scope and the position that just is being identified, and can come searching image by this picture that rolls.
Therefore according to embodiment 2, when switching shown level, in the demonstration after switching, can know the data set selected the level before switching or the position of data, thus the raising operability.
