  Further, by providing a display means for displaying that the search has been performed, it is possible to better notify the user of the terminal device that the search has been performed by an external request.

  In addition, when a search is displayed, an input screen for a message to be sent to another terminal device is displayed. When there is a message input based on the input screen, the input message is displayed on the other terminal device. Can be transmitted to a user who has another terminal device efficiently.

Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
In this example, a wireless communication terminal device configured as a mobile phone terminal is used.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the shape of the mobile phone terminal device of this example. As the mobile phone terminal device 10, an example of the shape of a general mobile phone terminal is shown here, and a display unit 16 composed of a liquid crystal display panel, an operation unit (operation key) 17 and the like are arranged. It is. Here, a relatively large display unit 16 is provided to display a search screen described later. In addition, display of the reception status of radio waves from the base station, graphic display such as a remaining battery level, which is general as a mobile phone terminal, and the like are also performed at the corners of the screen as shown in FIG.

  Next, an example of the internal configuration of the mobile phone terminal device 10 of this example will be described with reference to FIG. The cellular phone terminal device 10 of this example includes a radio telephone communication antenna 11 for performing radio communication with a radio telephone base station, and the antenna 11 is connected to a communication circuit 12 for radio telephone communication. Wireless communication is performed with the base station under the control of the control unit 19. When communication for communication is performed by the communication circuit 12, the received audio data is supplied to the audio data processing unit 13 to receive the audio data, and then supplied to the speaker 14 for output, and the microphone 15 Is sent to the communication circuit 12 to be transmitted.

  The mobile phone terminal device 10 includes a display unit 16 configured with a liquid crystal display or the like, and an operation unit 17 configured with operation keys. The display unit 16 can display a mail text, a screen for accessing the web, and the like, and the operation unit 17 can perform input operations such as a telephone number and a mail text, and various mode settings. A search screen to be described later is also displayed on the display unit 16.

  Each block in the terminal device 10 is connected to the control unit 19 and the like via the control line 23 and is configured to be able to transfer data via the data line 24, and stores necessary data in the memory 18. I am trying to make it. The memory 18 may store not only data necessary for the mobile phone terminal but also data necessary for the IC card function unit 40 described later. In addition to the memory 18, a hard disk drive device 30, which is a large-capacity data storage unit, is provided to store data input to the terminal device 10, downloaded data, and the like.

  In addition, in order to receive an incoming call to the terminal device 10 via a telephone line and various warnings, a vibration unit 21 configured by a vibration motor that vibrates the terminal itself, and a light emitting unit 22 configured by a light emitting diode or the like. And performing vibration and light emission under the control of the control unit 19. The vibration unit 21 and the light emitting unit 22 are used as notification means for notifying an incoming call as a mobile phone terminal.

  Further, the cellular phone terminal 10 of this example includes a non-contact IC card function unit 40. The non-contact IC card function unit 40 includes a billing data control unit 41 to which an antenna 42 is connected, and performs close proximity wireless communication with a reader / writer at a very close distance of about several centimeters. When performing this close proximity wireless communication, it is possible to operate the accounting data control unit 41 with power obtained by receiving radio waves from the reader / writer side. The billing data control unit 41 is operated by the power supplied from the power circuit 24.

  The billing data control unit 41 reads data necessary for billing and authentication from the memory 18 (or a memory (not shown in the billing data control unit 41)) when executing the IC card function, and performs proximity wireless communication with the reader / writer. To communicate. For example, in the case of functioning as a ticket for transportation, data such as a valid section as a ticket (commuter pass), a valid period, or a charge amount that can be withdrawn as a ticket, or this terminal (IC card) The billing data control unit 41 sends personal information and the like regarding the owner of the cardholder to the reader / writer for billing processing and authentication processing. When used as tickets for movies, concerts, etc., membership cards, payment cards, credit cards, etc., information necessary for such authentication is also exchanged.

  Further, the cellular phone terminal device 10 of this example includes a camera unit 50 and is configured to be able to shoot a still image or a moving image. The captured image data and audio data are recorded (stored) on a hard disk or the like by the hard disk drive device 30. ) Furthermore, a music playback unit 60 is provided so that music data recorded (stored) on a hard disk or the like can be played back from a speaker or headphones.

  Next, processing performed using the mobile phone terminal device 10 of this example will be described. In this example, the mobile phone terminal device 10 is used to perform a composite search based on information obtained by wireless communication with the outside or information in its own terminal device. At the time of this search processing, for example, the control unit 19 in the mobile phone terminal device 10 functions as a search means for executing a search and a search result acquisition means for acquiring a search result based on the installed search program. It is. In the following description, the composite search in this example is referred to as a mobile integrated search.

  A data management configuration in the terminal for performing the mobile integrated search will be described with reference to FIG. In the present example, as functions (programs) incorporated in the terminal device 10, as shown in the uppermost part of FIG. 3, in addition to the search program for the mobile integrated search function described above, transmission / reception of mail and mail transmitted / received A mailer program for managing data, an album function program for managing images captured by the camera unit 50 and downloaded images, a program for managing schedules, and the like are implemented.

  Each of these functions consists of a data operation unit that performs data processing and a communication unit that transfers data, and stores the data in the terminal file system and relational database, and reads the stored data. Thus, processing of each function is performed. For example, the data operation unit is an interface for dynamically changing content called DOM (Document Object Model), a simple language for converting to another document called XSLT (XML Stylesheet Language Transformations), etc. The common technology is applied. The communication unit applies a communication method independent of platform applications such as SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol). The file system and the relational database are composed of data stored in the memory 18 or the hard disk of the terminal device 10, the file system stores a group of data such as image data and music data, and the relational database includes mail data and the like. Data groups transmitted and received by telephone communication are accumulated.

  Here, in this example, the data used for each function is expressed in an XML (eXtensible Mark-up Language) format language, which is a language commonly used on the Internet, etc. It is an application-independent data representation with excellent operability. That is, for example, a search front-end expression XML indicated by a mobile integrated search, a received mail list expression XML indicated by a mailer, an image list expression XML indicated by an album function, a schedule list expression XML indicated by a scheduler, etc. Is displayed. Data processing such as actual search processing and encoding / decoding of image data and the like is performed by a content engine realized by control of the control unit 19 of the terminal device 10. All the application data are managed in an integrated manner on the data operation unit side.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the search program for the mobile integrated search function of this example performs a process of searching for data expressed by a program of another function, and the search result is expressed as an expression XML on the search result screen. I am trying to create it. Alternatively, when a search is instructed from another terminal device, the result data searched by the search program is sent to the other terminal device side. When performing a search, it is possible to set data such as a flag indicating whether the stored information is disclosed or not disclosed for each function data. Only the indicated data is used as search target information. However, when searching for information in the terminal itself, the search target is not limited to public or private. Data indicating whether or not to release the stored information may be given in units of functions (programs). For example, only image data and music data may be disclosed, and all mail data and schedule data managed by a mailer or scheduler may be kept private. The range to be disclosed may be changed depending on the search partner.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example of a communication state with another terminal or the like during the mobile integrated search in this example. In FIG. 4, two mobile phone terminal devices 10 that have already been described are prepared, and are respectively referred to as terminal devices 10a and 10b. The terminal device 10a is a terminal that performs mobile integrated search, and the terminal device 10b is a terminal that searches for information in accordance with an instruction from the terminal device 10a. Further, it is connected to the search application server 110 by wireless communication through a wireless telephone line or the like, and information on the Internet 120 is also searched. For the exchange of search between the terminal device 10a and the terminal device 10b, the IMS core 130 is used here. The IMS core is a mechanism used in an IP multimedia subsystem. This IP multimedia subsystem is one of data exchange systems for a third generation mobile communication system called 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project). One.

  Here, the IMS core 130 includes a session initiate protocol server (SIP server), a presence server, and a group list management server (GLMS). The loop list management server defines the members of the group of terminals that perform the data exchange processing for search in this example, and the presence server determines the status of the terminals that constitute the members in the group (power on / off (Off state, registered location, etc.).

  Data exchange is performed between a plurality of terminal devices 10a, 10b,... By wireless communication via the IMS core 130. In this example, for example, the terminal device 10a transmits data to the terminal device 10b. The data as the keyword is sent, and the search result data can be returned from the terminal device 10b to the terminal device 10a.

  Although an example in which data is exchanged between a plurality of terminal devices 10a, 10b... Via the IMS core 130 is shown here, each terminal device is directly used without using such a data exchange system. The search data may be transmitted by wirelessly connecting them to exchange data.

  Next, an example of processing when performing a mobile integrated search in the mobile phone terminal device 10 of this example will be described. First, an overview of the processing state of the mobile integrated search in this example will be described with reference to FIG. 5. When performing the mobile integrated search in the mobile phone terminal device 10, the search range is set. . Specifically, for example, as shown in the display screen example of the terminal device 10 shown in FIG. 1, on the screen that is initially displayed during the mobile integrated search, the search keyword input location and the input keyword are displayed. A button display for instructing a search is prepared, and a selection screen for a category to be searched is displayed. In the example of FIG. 1, the categories to be searched are divided into six categories: Internet, community, friends, mail, in-terminal information, schedule, and check the top three categories among the six categories, This is an example of selecting the search range.

  By performing such category selection, as shown in FIG. 5, when mobile integrated search is performed in the mobile phone terminal device 10, the Internet a, the community b, and the registration prepared as the search range are registered. The search is performed using the selected category as a search range from the information c published on the terminal (one or a plurality of devices) and the information d stored in the terminal device 10 of the terminal. The result is displayed on the display unit of the mobile phone terminal device 10.

  As a search for the community b, for example, the server operating the site of the instructed community b is accessed via the Internet or the like, and information stored in the accessed server (participating in the corresponding community) For example, information written from a member who is a member). In addition, as a search for the information c published on the registered terminal, a mobile phone terminal device that performs terminal search (friend search) in addition to the mobile integrated search is registered in advance. At the time of registration, you may make it ask | require consent, for example with an other party's terminal device by an email. Further, a terminal device having a call history or a terminal device having a mail transmission / reception history may be automatically registered as a mobile phone terminal device that performs another terminal search at the time of mobile integrated search. In addition, as a terminal registered as another terminal, a terminal device other than a mobile phone terminal such as a computer device connected to the Internet can be used as long as it can be supported by a system such as the IMS core 130 shown in FIG. Also good.

  The flowchart in FIG. 6 shows an example of processing from the start to display of the mobile integrated search of this example. Referring to FIG. 6, when the start of mobile integrated search is instructed by an operation from the menu screen of the mobile phone terminal 10 (step S11), the user inputs a keyword on the displayed screen (step S11). S12) A search category is selected (step S13).

  When there is an operation up to this point and there is an operation for pressing the search start button, the search is executed. In the search process, it is determined whether or not the Internet is selected in the search category (step S14). If the Internet is selected, the search keyword is connected to the Internet search site and the entered keyword is sent to the search site side. A search on the Internet is executed (step S15).

  Next, it is determined whether or not a community is selected in the search category (step S16). If a community is selected, the search keyword is connected to the search site of the community, and the input keyword is sent to the search site side, and the Internet The search is executed at step S17.

  Next, it is determined whether or not another terminal is selected in the search category (step S18). If another terminal search is selected, the input keyword is connected to the IMS core 130 (FIG. 4) side. The search for the information stored in the registered other terminal device is executed (step S19).

  Next, it is determined whether or not the own terminal is selected in the search category (step S20). If the own terminal search is selected, the stored information for the selected function is searched in the own terminal. (Step S21).

  Then, a list screen for each category is created by processing in the terminal device based on the results obtained so far, and the created list screen is displayed on the display unit 16 (step S22). Although a display example of the list screen will be described later, it is a screen for displaying a list of items found by the search, and the control unit 19 of the terminal device 10 has selected any one of the displayed items. If it is determined (step S23) and selected, the process proceeds to a process of displaying detailed information about the item (step S24). If detailed information can be displayed from the information stored in the terminal device at that time, a display screen is created immediately, and information needs to be acquired from the specified terminal or site. Connect to a terminal or site to obtain information and display it. When displaying the searched information, the link destination is displayed so that a link to the destination where the information is searched (accumulated) can be made.

  The flowchart in FIG. 7 is an example of processing when the terminal device needs to be linked to the outside in the detailed display or the like. First, it is determined whether or not the displayed link destination has been selected (step S31). When the link destination is selected, it is determined whether or not the address is on the Internet (step S32). If there is, processing for displaying the specified information by connecting to the corresponding address on the Internet is performed (step S33).

  Also, it is determined whether or not the link destination is a community (step S34). If the link destination is a community, the corresponding information is displayed on the site operated by the community server by connecting to the corresponding community server. The process to perform is performed (step S35).

  Further, it is determined whether or not the link destination is a specific other terminal device (step S36). If the link destination is the specific terminal device, whether to send a mail to the terminal device or make a call Is determined (step S37). This selection is performed by a user operation, for example. If mail transmission is selected, an inquiry mail is transmitted to the corresponding terminal (step S38). If a call is selected, call processing to the corresponding terminal is performed (step S39).

  Next, a processing example in the mobile phone terminal device 10 instructed to search for information stored therein from another terminal device will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. FIG. 8 shows an example in which a search instruction is issued from the terminal device 10a to the terminal device 10b. First, when a search keyword is transmitted from the terminal device 10a (step S41), the corresponding keyword is displayed in the terminal device 10b. It is determined whether or not there is storage of related data (step S42). If there is related data, it is automatically searched by processing in the terminal device 10b (step S43), and the search result data Is transmitted to the terminal device 10a side (step S44). At this time, for example, in the terminal device 10b, the display unit displays that the inquiry from the terminal device 10a has been answered (step S45). When this display is performed, a display for inquiring whether or not there is a comment to be added is simultaneously performed, and it is determined whether or not additional information is selected according to the display (step S46). Then, an input screen for a message to be transmitted to the terminal device 10a is displayed and a message is input (step S47). When a message is input in this way, the input message is transmitted to the terminal device 10a when the input is completed (step S48). This message transmission may be a mail transmission process using a system different from the data transmission for search.

  Next, display examples in each processing state will be described. First, FIG. 9 shows a display example on the terminal device 10 that has started the mobile integrated search of this example. When the mobile integrated search is started, an initial screen for inputting a keyword, selecting a search category, starting a search, and the like is displayed as shown in FIG. When an input is performed based on this screen and a search start operation is performed, the screen shifts to display of a search result screen.

  In the example of FIG. 9A, “Movie ABC” is input as a keyword. FIGS. 9B, 9C, and 9D are examples of search result screens, respectively. Here, the results list of two categories is displayed on one screen. That is, FIG. 9B shows a list of search results on the Internet and a list of community search results, and FIG. 9C shows a list of search results of friends (other terminals) and mail data in the terminal. FIG. 9D shows a search result list of information such as images and music data stored in the terminal and a search result list of schedule data in the terminal. It is. However, since the space that can be displayed in each search result is limited, a button display “next” for displaying the next list is prepared for each category, and the items with the highest matching degree in the search are provided in order. It is made to display. Further, in the display states of FIGS. 9B, 9C, and 9D, for example, a button display “next category” is prepared at the bottom, and FIGS. 9B and 9C are operated by this operation. ) And (d) are switched in order so that the category to be displayed can be selected.

  For example, when there is an operation of selecting the title portion of each display item, the details of the information about the search item are displayed, and if necessary, the information can be linked to the storage destination of the information. The search results displayed as shown in FIGS. 9B, 9 </ b> C, and 9 </ b> D are obtained by performing some weighting in advance according to, for example, the category to be searched or the type of information to be searched. It is good.

  FIG. 10 is a diagram showing a display example on the mobile phone terminal device when there is a search request in response to an instruction from another terminal device (that is, when the processing shown in the flowchart of FIG. 8 is executed). When a search is performed based on an instruction from another terminal device, for example, as shown in FIG. 10A, the search keyword and the search keyword are displayed. After this display is performed, for example, as shown in FIG. 10B, a display of the search result and a display for inquiring whether there is a message to be additionally sent are performed. Here, when “with message” is selected, for example, as shown in FIG. 10C, a message input screen is displayed, and the input message is transmitted to the partner terminal device.

  In the embodiment described so far, the function of performing the composite search of the present invention is incorporated in advance in the mobile phone terminal. However, the terminal having the same wireless communication function by programming the composite search function of the present invention. A similar process may be performed by installing in the apparatus.
