Description

  The present invention relates to a technique for controlling processing of a mobile terminal device.

  In the medical field, information such as a doctor's idea about a patient's illness and medical practice performed on a patient has been recorded and managed in a document called a medical record since ancient times. Information recorded in these medical charts needs to be managed for many years, and contains important personal information that should be kept secret from the outside, and its digitization technology is becoming widespread.

  Many service industries, not limited to the medical field, can provide better services to customers by recording and managing the history of various services performed for customers as medical records.

  For example, in many hairdressing salons, the history of treatments such as cuts and treatments performed on customers is recorded and managed in a medical record, so that customers who come back to the store at intervals of several weeks can Proposing and providing services that seem to be optimal with reference to information.

  Similar to the medical field, in those service industries, management of data can be facilitated by digitizing the data recorded in the medical record.

  For example, in Patent Document 1, a portable terminal possessed by each store clerk transmits and receives medical chart data to and from a server on a network via wireless access points respectively disposed in a plurality of barber / beauty stores. On the other hand, a mechanism for sharing medical record data among salesclerks at multiple stores has been proposed.

JP 2005-196390 A

  Conventionally, since medical record data is created by service providers such as doctors and hairdressers, it is generally recognized that they are the property of those service providers, and patients and customers who are service recipients There are many cases where medical chart data cannot be viewed and used freely.

  However, since the medical record data is data related to the patients and customers who are service recipients, the chart data is inherently the property of the service recipient and should be freely viewable and usable by the service recipient. .

  However, medical record data is also used to communicate the contents accurately and quickly between service providers (such as between different doctors and hairdressers). It needs to be unified. Accordingly, it is desirable that the medical record data is created and managed mainly by a service provider who is an expert, and it is not always desirable to allow free modification of medical chart data by a service provider such as a patient or a customer.

  Some of the medical record data is written in specialized terms and expressions that can be understood only by service providers, and all of them are not necessarily available to service providers. Absent. Therefore, it is desirable that data unnecessary for browsing for those service recipients is not presented to the service recipient.

  For example, if a chart data sharing mechanism as described in Patent Document 1 is used, for example, a user ID and a password for permitting access to chart data related to the customer can be given to the customer. The above problems can be solved.

  In other words, the customer uses his / her terminal device to access the server that records the medical record data, and after authenticating the user by entering the user ID and password, the customer receives the medical record data related to him / her from the server. Thus, it is possible to browse and use his / her own chart data displayed on the terminal device.

  However, as described above, in a mechanism for recording medical record data in a server, it is necessary to spend a lot of resources for server management. This is because, first, the amount of data recorded in the server increases, so it is necessary to secure sufficient hardware resources. In addition, since many users can access the chart data via the network, if the access management is not performed sufficiently, a serious problem that a large amount of personal information leaks to the outside occurs.

  For this reason, it is often not realistic to introduce a mechanism for managing medical chart data in a server, for example, from a viewpoint of labor and cost effectiveness.

  The above is description of operation | movement of the smart phone 11 according to the beauty salon A application.

  By the way, when the store clerk retires from the beauty salon A, it is not desirable to keep using the unlock password that has been used to unlock the smartphone 11 until then. For example, at a beauty salon after moving (for example, “Beauty Salon B”), a clerk who has already retired uses the Beauty Salon A app to apply to the customer ’s smartphone 11 who was a member of Beauty Salon A. This is because it is unwilling for the beauty salon A to register medical record data such as treatment and to browse information such as the know-how of the treatment that the colleague has registered in the beauty salon A in the past.

  Therefore, in the mobile application management system 1, the store manager of the beauty salon A can change the unlock password at any time.

  When the store manager wants to change the unlock password, he / she accesses the server device 12 by inputting a predetermined URI on the browser screen of the terminal device 13, and displays the unlock password change screen on the display of the terminal device 13. .

  On the screen for changing the unlock password, the store manager inputs a password browsing change password notified only to the store manager in advance and a new unlock password, and clicks a “change” button.

  In response to this operation, the password browsing change password and the new unlock password are transmitted from the terminal device 13 to the server device 12. When the server device 12 receives these passwords, it collates the received password browsing change password with the password browsing change password stored in advance in the storage means.

  When it is determined that the password browsing change passwords match in the verification, the server device 12 overwrites and saves the new unlock password received from the terminal device 13 over the unlock password previously stored in the storage means. The password for unlocking is updated.

  When it is determined that the passwords for password browsing change do not match in the verification of the password for password browsing change, the server device 12 says “The password for password browsing change is incorrect. Enter the correct password for password browsing change. ”Is transmitted to the terminal device 13, and then the web page data of the unlock password change screen is transmitted to the terminal device 13 again. Therefore, the store manager re-enters the password browsing change password and the new unlock password.

  The store manager who has changed the unlock password by the above operation transmits the new unlock password to another store clerk so that the store salon A can continue to unlock the beauty salon A app. On the other hand, the store clerk who has retired from the beauty salon A cannot know the new unlock password, and therefore cannot unlock the beauty salon A app.

  The above is the description of the operation of the mobile application management system 1.

  According to the mobile application management system 1 described above, data relating to a customer created by a store clerk such as medical record data is directly stored in the smartphone carried by the customer, so that the customer can freely browse the data. . At this time, since it is not necessary to store personal information in the server device, it is not necessary to spend a great deal of money or labor for maintenance and prevention of data leakage. Furthermore, it is possible to easily provide services that could not be realized by conventional mechanisms, such as transmission of messages from store clerk to individual customers.

[Modification]
The above-described embodiment shows a specific example of the present invention, and the present invention can be variously modified within the scope of its technical idea. Examples of such modifications are shown below.

  In the mobile application management system 1 described above, verification of the unlock password is performed in the server device 12, but a configuration in which verification of the unlock password is performed in the smartphone 11 may be employed.

  In that case, for example, at the timing before and after the password input screen is displayed on the smartphone 11, the smartphone 11 transmits transmission request data for requesting the server device 12 to transmit the unlock password, and the server device 12 receives the response as a response. What is necessary is just to make it transmit the password for unlocking with respect to the smart phone 11. FIG. The smartphone 11 compares the unlock password for reference received from the server device 12 with the unlock password for verification input to the smartphone 11 by the store clerk, thereby unlocking the server device 12 described above. The same result as that of password verification can be obtained.

  In the mobile application management system 1 described above, when the store manager changes the unlock password, the store manager transmits the new unlock password to another store clerk. However, the unlock password is changed. In such a case, a mechanism for automatically notifying the store clerk of a new unlock password may be introduced into the mobile application management system 1.

  Specifically, for example, after the store manager logs in to the screen for changing the unlock password of the server device 12 using, for example, the password for changing the password, the store manager inputs the email address of each store clerk and clicks the “Register” button on the screen. By doing so, those mail addresses are registered in the server device 12 in advance.

  When the unlocking password is changed, the server device 12 generates e-mail data for notifying the new unlocking password to the e-mail address registered in advance as described above, and transmits it to the Internet 20. . As a result, each clerk can receive a notification of a new unlocking password by e-mail with his / her terminal device.

  In the mobile application management system 1 described above, the store manager manually changes the unlock password, but in addition to or instead, the server device 12 periodically unlocks automatically. A configuration for changing the password for use may be employed.

  In that case, the server device 12 automatically generates an appropriate new unlock password for every elapse of an interval period (for example, one month) set in advance by the store manager, and releases the old lock with the generated unlock password. If the new password is unlocked (updated) and the new unlock password is notified by e-mail to the store manager's e-mail address registered in the server device 12 or another store clerk's e-mail address in advance. Good.

  As a result, even when the store manager is busy, the unlock password is surely updated, which is desirable.

  In addition, regarding the notification to the store manager and the store clerk of the unlock password, an image such as a two-dimensional barcode encoded with the unlock password is used instead of the unlock password or in addition to the terminal device 13 operated by the store manager. Alternatively, a configuration may be employed in which the information is transmitted to a terminal device of a store clerk via a Web page or by e-mail.

  In that case, the store manager or the store clerk prints out the transmitted image, or displays it on the display of his / her mobile terminal device and shoots the image with the camera of the customer's smartphone 11 for unlocking. You can enter your password. At that time, the smartphone 11 decodes the image captured by the camera to acquire the unlock password, and uses it for the verification process.

  Although not mentioned in the description of the mobile application management system 1 described above, there are various triggers that can be locked again after the beauty salon A application is unlocked by the store clerk. For example, when a “lock” button is provided on the screen for the store clerk and the store clerk touches the button to explicitly lock it, or when the screen is moved from the screen for the store clerk to a screen that is not for the store clerk (main menu, etc.) Any configuration can be used as long as the purpose of the mobile application management system 1 described above can be achieved, such as a configuration in which the mobile application management system 1 is automatically locked or a configuration in which the lock is automatically activated after a certain period of time has elapsed since unlocking. Good.

  Moreover, in the portable application management system 1, the method of inputting and collating the password for unlocking by the store clerk to the smartphone 11 is adopted as a method for unlocking the beauty salon A application. Instead of this, a mechanism for unlocking the beauty salon A app by another method as described below may be adopted.

(Method using position data)
As a method for unlocking the beauty salon A app that can be used in place of password verification, first, the hair salon A app is preliminarily provided with region data indicating the geographical region of the store, and the smartphone 11 This is a method of unlocking the beauty salon A app only when the smartphone 11 determines that the current position is within the store area indicated by the area data.

  In this modification, as an example of the format of the area data indicating the area of the beauty salon A store included in advance in the beauty salon A application, first, as shown in FIG. A format such as a coordinate data group in which coordinate data indicating the coordinates of vertices (points a to f in FIG. 7A) are arranged in order clockwise, for example, is conceivable.

  Further, as another example of the format of the area data indicating the area of the store of the beauty salon A, as shown in FIG. 7B, a point indicating the general center of the store site (point o in FIG. 7B). ) And coordinate data indicating the coordinates of the radius of the circle (distance d in FIG. 7B) that generally covers the site of the store centered on the point is considered. It is done.

  The smartphone 11 needs to have a function of acquiring current position data indicating the current position of the own device, which is called a so-called GPS portable function. With the GPS portable function, the smartphone 11 receives data transmitted from a plurality of artificial satellites, calculates the current position of the smartphone 11 based on the data from the time of transmission to reception and the position of those artificial satellites, This is a function for generating current position data indicating the calculation result.

  Although the accuracy is lowered, current position data indicating the current position measured by a function called a simple position measurement function instead of the GPS portable function may be used in this modification. The simple position measurement function refers to the strength of radio waves received by mobile data communication terminals such as smartphones from a plurality of neighboring base stations constituting the mobile data communication network, or radio waves received by base stations from mobile data communication terminals. The current position of the mobile data communication terminal is calculated from the measured values, and current position data indicating the calculation result is generated.

  According to the mobile application management system 1 according to this modified example, when the beauty salon A app is activated in the store of the beauty salon A, the lock of the beauty salon A application is automatically released, and the medical record data and message by the store clerk Data can be registered and edited. This eliminates the need for the store clerk to input the unlock password for the customer's smartphone 11.

  In addition, when there are a plurality of stores of the beauty salon A, the beauty salon A application includes the area data regarding each of the plurality of stores, so that even if the customer visits any store, the beauty salon A application Can be unlocked.

(Method using radio wave transmitter)
The next proposed method for unlocking the beauty salon A app that can be used instead of password verification is to include a device ID (Identifier) that uniquely identifies a specific radio wave transmitter in advance in the beauty salon A app. It is a method of unlocking the beauty salon A application only when the smartphone 11 receives a radio wave indicating the device ID.

  For example, a personal computer provided with wireless data communication means compliant with a wireless communication standard known by the brand name Bluetooth (registered trademark) is caused to execute processing according to the application program according to the present invention. A radio wave transmission device required as a component of the management system 1 is realized.

  Bluetooth (registered trademark) is a data communication standard that performs wireless communication over a relatively short distance with a line-of-sight reach of up to about 100 meters, and mainly enables routine data communication between the main device and peripheral devices, Most smartphones have built-in wireless data communication means that comply with the standard.

  In Bluetooth (registered trademark), a device ID for identifying the device itself is periodically broadcast to communication partner candidates.

  Therefore, the smartphone 11 can include the device ID assigned to the wireless data communication means compliant with Bluetooth (registered trademark) included in the radio wave transmission device arranged in the store of the beauty salon A in advance. The device ID can be verified.

  In the mobile application management system 1 according to this modification, for example, when the beauty salon A app is activated in a store, the smartphone 11 receives a device ID broadcast from a radio wave transmitter disposed in the store. Only when the received device ID matches the device ID included in the beauty salon A application, the beauty salon A app is automatically unlocked.

  As a result, the mobile application management system 1 according to this modification also eliminates the need for the clerk to input the unlock password to the customer's smartphone 11 as in the method using the current position data of the smartphone 11 described above. Become.

  In addition, when there are a plurality of stores of the beauty salon A, it is the case where the customer visits any store by including the device ID of the radio wave transmission device arranged in each of the plurality of stores in the beauty salon A application. However, it is possible to unlock the hairdresser A app.

  Bluetooth (registered trademark) is an example of a wireless data communication standard that can be adopted in the mobile application management system 1 according to this modified example. Any standard may be employed in this variation.

  In addition, in the mobile application management system 1 according to this modified example, a configuration in which content data indicating a notification that is limitedly notified from a store to a store visitor, for example, is transmitted from the radio wave communication device arranged in the store to the smartphone 11. It may be adopted. The content data is text data, image data, moving image data, sound data, program data, or any combination thereof.

  In that case, for example, the customer can obtain only advantageous information that cannot be found on the Web page for introduction of the beauty salon A widely disclosed via the Internet 20 by going to the store of the beauty salon A. . Therefore, as a customer, for example, it is desirable to be able to spend reading such advantageous information during the waiting time in the store of beauty salon A, for example. In addition, it is desirable for the beauty salon A to be able to encourage customers to visit the store by preparing content dedicated to the store visitor.

[Remarks]
By the way, in the above-described embodiment and its modifications, the case where the present invention is used for the mechanism for managing data such as medical chart data in the beauty salon A has been described. The present invention is not limited to a beauty salon, and can be used in other service businesses having various actual stores.

  Furthermore, the use scene of the present invention is not limited to a scene of service improvement in a service industry having an actual store, and the user performs a predetermined process using data stored in a mobile terminal device carried by the user. The present invention may be used in any scene as long as it is a scene that can use a mechanism of permitting only when it is performed within an area.

  At this time, the predetermined processing that can be used by unlocking is not limited to editing / browsing the specific type of data employed in the above-described embodiment, and various processes such as permission to use a predetermined character in the game program, for example. Things can be considered.

  Since the method according to the present invention is useful for at least service improvement in a service industry having an actual store, it can be widely used in those service industries.
