Claims

A metadata file creation device that obtains content created for the first information terminal from the first content providing device and creates a metadata file for processing a specific element in the obtained content; A content creation method in a content creation / distribution system including a second content providing device that creates content for a second information terminal associated with a data file,
The metadata file creation device is
A first step of acquiring any one of a plurality of contents to which a metadata file is applied from the first content providing apparatus ;
A second step of designating an element to be processed by the metadata file among a plurality of elements constituting the acquired content;
A third step of setting content to which the metadata file is applied;
And a fourth step of creating arbitrary metadata file containing information indicating the position information and contents set in the third step within the arbitrary content of the specified component in the second step Prepared ,
The second content providing apparatus is
In response to a content distribution request from the second information terminal , if the requested content corresponds to the content defined in the metadata file, the requested content is acquired from the first content providing device ; A fifth step of extracting an element set in the metadata file from the content, performing a process set in the metadata file on the element, and creating a content for the second information terminal ; A method for creating content, comprising:

Said second step includes a step of designating the parent elements of the element to be processed by the metadata file, and a step of specifying the processing target element, any in the content by repeating the two steps how to create content according to claim 1, characterized in that to specify a plurality of elements.

The second step includes a step of designating a repetition number for a parent element and designating a repetition of an element to be processed by a metadata file for a content in which an element group composed of a plurality of elements is repeated. how to create content according to claim 1 or 2,.

When the second step designates some elements in the element group for the content in which the element group consisting of a plurality of elements is repeated, the first element and the last element in the element group are designated. step a, step a, how to create content according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that it comprises a step of specifying an object element that specifies the number of iterations to be.

4. The method according to claim 1, wherein the second step includes a step of defining position information of the designated element using a parent hierarchy axis for the designated element and a sequence of tags on the same hierarchy axis. how to create content according to an item or.

The third step is, how to create content according to any one of claims 1-5, characterized in that it comprises the step of setting the content group to be processed by the metadata file.

The fifth step performs an approximate collation between the arrangement of tags on the parent hierarchy axis and the same hierarchy axis of the element specified in the second step and the arrangement of tags in the acquired request destination content, and approximates how to create content according to claim 5, characterized in that it comprises a step of extracting the elements in the range.

In the fifth step, a threshold value is set in which a difference between a tag arrangement in the parent hierarchy axis and the same hierarchy axis of the element designated in the second step and the tag arrangement in the acquired request destination content is set in advance. 6. The method of determining whether or not the content has exceeded, and in the case of exceeding the content, the acquired content includes a step of notifying the content manager as content to which the metadata file specified in the second step cannot be applied. how to create content according to 5 or claim 7.

The content created in the first information for the terminal obtained from the first content providing apparatus, a metadata file creating apparatus for creating a metadata file for processing certain elements in the obtained content, the meta A content creation / distribution system comprising a second content providing device that creates content for a second information terminal associated with a data file ,
The metadata file creation device is
A first means for acquiring any one of a plurality of contents to which a metadata file is applied from the first content providing apparatus;
Second means for specifying an element to be processed by the meta data file among a plurality of elements constituting the acquired content,
A third means for setting content to be applied to the metadata file;
Fourth means for creating an arbitrary metadata file including position information of the element designated by the second means in the arbitrary content and information indicating the content set by the third means; Have
The second content providing apparatus is
In response to a content distribution request from the second information terminal , if the requested content corresponds to the content defined in the metadata file, the requested content is acquired from the first content providing device ; Fifth means for extracting an element designated in the metadata file from the content, performing processing set in the metadata file for the element, and creating content for the second information terminal A content creation system comprising:

Said second means comprises means for specifying the parent element of the element to be processed by the metadata file, and means for specifying the processing target element, any in the content by repeated processing of these two means The content creation system according to claim 9, wherein a plurality of elements are designated.

The second means includes means for designating the number of repetitions for the parent element for the content in which an element group consisting of a plurality of elements is repeated, and designating the repetition of the element to be processed by the metadata file. The content creation system according to claim 9 or 10, characterized in that

When the second means designates some elements in the element group for content in which an element group consisting of a plurality of elements is repeated, the first element and the last element in the element group are designated. The content creation system according to claim 9, further comprising: means for specifying the number of repetitions; and means for specifying the target element.

12. The method according to claim 9, wherein the second means includes means for defining position information of the designated element by using a parent hierarchy axis for the designated element and a sequence of tags on the same hierarchy axis. The content creation system according to claim 1.

The content creation system according to any one of claims 9 to 13, wherein the third means includes means for setting a content group to which a metadata file is applied.

The fifth means performs an approximate collation between the arrangement of tags on the parent hierarchy axis and the same hierarchy axis of the element designated by the second means and the arrangement of tags in the acquired request destination content, and approximates The content creation system according to claim 13, further comprising means for extracting an element within the range.

The fifth means sets a preset threshold value for a difference between the tag arrangement in the parent hierarchy axis and the same hierarchy axis of the element designated in the second means and the acquired request destination content. The content includes: a means for determining whether or not the content has exceeded, and notifying the content manager that the acquired content is content to which the metadata file specified by the second means cannot be applied. The content creation system of Claim 13 or Claim 15.
