Description

  The present invention relates to a control method for a sliding system, a sliding system, and a control program for the sliding system.

For example, in the case of a used car, hundreds to thousands of vehicles are placed on a venue per day, and the duration of one vehicle is completed in about 20 seconds on average.
For this reason, for example, in Patent Document 1, the user of the terminal device expresses the will of bidding at the price displayed on the bulletin board by operating the bidding button, and the price displayed is one person representing the position. It is automatically raised until it becomes.

Bidders can participate in the target by waiting for the start of the target line, confirming in advance what number of the target line will be executed based on the ticket issued by the organizer. .
In recent years, in order to perform multiple installations in a short time, the use of multiple lanes in a single venue is progressing, and it is necessary to be aware of not only the number but also which lane. Furthermore, as the collaboration between venues progresses due to the centralization of the seri system, simultaneous sericulture is being held at multiple venues, and it is expected that the number of lanes of seri in the same time zone will increase.

  Since bids have different speeds depending on the status of bids, bidders must monitor the different levels of progress and want to participate in the time axis, making it difficult to participate without missing the start timing. It is. This is a factor that misses the opportunity to participate, and a great burden on bidders.

  Also, it is difficult for an exhibitor to know at what time the listing will be performed, and when the user wants to specify a start price or a sell-off price, the exhibitor must wait so that it can be instructed at any time. This is a burden on the exhibitor.

  In the used car crushing industry, the number of lanes will increase as the number of lanes increases in order to reduce costs / reduction time in the future. There are concerns. Therefore, there is a demand for a method for efficiently participating in a cross over a plurality of lanes, and a method for positively appealing a vehicle that a bidder desires.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-290070 JP-T-2002-525760 JP 2002-157384 A

The above-described conventional techniques have the following technical problems.
First, there is a technical problem that it is difficult for the bidders to understand the “where the lane” of the “where” the “bicycle” will be placed.

Secondly, for each bidder, there are fears that false bids and false bids may occur because lanes that are not of interest to him / her are also displayed.
Third, if you want to participate at the same time, if you bid for both, you need proxy bid processing such as an application for absence (hereinafter referred to as absence application), but it is difficult to understand that the bid time is doubled.

As a result, there is a concern that the number of bids will be sluggish even in vehicles that should be popular, the winning bid price will not rise, and the satisfaction of the organizers and exhibitors will decline.
Note that Patent Document 2 discloses a technique in which a schedule is adjusted so that the end time of each lot is not adjacent to each other when the lot (part) that is the commodity to be exhibited is manufactured. ing. However, this technique is a schedule adjustment technique on the organizer side of the seri, and it remains the same that the time of the seri is difficult to understand when viewed from bidders and exhibitors.

  Also, in Patent Document 3, for a user of a terminal device connected via a network, a schedule element of a category specified by the user is classified, merged (synthesized), and confirmed along the time axis Although a technique for generating and presenting a schedule display page for use is disclosed, the above-described technical problem in the chain is not recognized.

The exhibition form registration terminal device 132 is used for registration of an exhibition form describing detailed information (vehicle name, manufacturer, color, evaluation point, etc.) of an exhibit (in this case, a used car) to be exhibited in the line. The retrieval terminal device 133 is used for retrieval of the transmission information to be performed. The visitor (member) registration terminal device 134 is for confirming a member who has visited the venue. For example, the membership card 4 is used to confirm whether or not the member is a visiting member. The ticket issuing terminal device 135 is used for issuing printed matter such as a meal ticket provided as a service to the visiting member.

  The two business servers 110 are used for storing data relating to members, data relating to banknotes, performing business, and the like. Specifically, as an example, the business server 110 can function as a WEB system for members that accepts logins from members, responds to call data, and the like.

  The two video servers 120 are used to store video data to be provided to members, such as exhibition slip data. The reason why two business servers 110 and two video servers 120 are installed is to realize higher safety. In addition, the network 140 is also duplexed in order to realize higher security.

  The cutting machine system 20 includes two sliding control devices 200, linked PCs (personal computers) 211, two display control PCs 212 and 213, a slipper / coordinator operation terminal device 214, and a number of purchasing store operation terminal devices 215. , A plurality of seat vehicle search terminal devices 216, a slide status display monitor 221, an exhibit store display monitor 222, and the two slide control devices 200 are connected to each terminal device such as the linked PC 211 to the seat vehicle search terminal device 216. A network 230 is provided.

  The two slide control devices 200 and the two business servers 110 and the video server 120 are connected by the network 30. This network 30 is duplexed by two hubs 31 and a plurality of communication lines 32 connected to each hub 31. Similarly to the networks 140 and 30, the network 230 is duplexed by a large number of hubs 231 and a plurality of communication lines 232 connected to each hub 231.

  The linked PC 211 enables members who are in locations other than the venue to participate. With the cooperation PC 211, the member can participate in the sari through the Internet, for example. The display control PC 212 controls display of an image to be displayed on the connected sled state display monitor 221 and the like. The slide status display monitor 221 is a large-sized display device that displays information such as an exhibition ticket of a used car that has been exhibited at the presently displayed, a current price, and the like.

  The display control PC 213 controls display of images on the connected exhibit store display monitor 222 and the like. The exhibit store display monitor 222 is a large display device that displays the current price and the bidding status for the exhibitor (exhibit store).

  The sage person / adjuster operation terminal device 214 allows a sage person to advance a sledge, and allows a coordinator to adjust the price during the stake. The purchase shop operation terminal device 215 is for a member to participate in the sari, and is installed in a seat for the seri member. The purchase shop operation terminal device 215 includes a card reader for reading information recorded on the member card 4 and a bidding switch (both not shown) for bidding.

  The seat vehicle search terminal device 216 allows the member of the sari to search for a desired vehicle among the vehicles (exhibits) exhibited in the sari and to apply for an absence application requesting proxy participation by the organizer of the sari venue. It can be done, and it is installed in the seat for the member of the seat. The seat vehicle search terminal device 216 is actually a personal computer (PC), for example, and is equipped with a display device 217 and a keyboard and lane switch button 218 for connection of a vehicle search or absence application, or a connection device. ing.

In addition, the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 includes a card reader that reads information recorded on the member card 4 in the same manner as the purchase store operation terminal device 215.
In the present embodiment, the lane switching button 218 includes a my lane button 218a for selecting a my lane in addition to the actual lane button 218b for selecting each of the actual lanes A to Z.

  The lane switching button 218 and the my lane button 218a are not limited to hardware, and may be implemented by a GUI (graphical user interface) displayed on the display device 217.

  The two drag control devices 200 perform the progress of the slip, update the price to be presented, etc., in accordance with the instruction from the slipper / coordinator operation terminal device 214. In addition, the member using the purchase store operation terminal device 215 or the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 is authenticated and a bid is accepted using them. The number of bids received is notified to the seritor / adjuster operation terminal device 214 for judgments such as price changes and determination of successful bidders.

  In the venue where the sliding system 1 having the above-described configuration is introduced, a large number of used cars (vehicles) are exhibited as exhibits. There is a tendency to increase the number of lanes in the venues where the used cars are used as exhibits, and the number of lanes tends to increase to reduce costs by reducing the time required for the navigation. Is supposed to do.

  For this reason, bidders can search for a list of vehicles that they want to bid from among a number of events scheduled for each lane, participate in the search, or apply for absent bids. Necessary.

  In this embodiment, in order to make it easier for such bidders to participate in a desired event, in this embodiment, the time required for the item to be displayed in each item to be displayed in each lane (start of the item to be displayed) Calculate the start time (hereinafter “scheduled start time”) at which the start of each slip is expected, using the calculated time taken for the slip in each exhibit. Like to do. The scheduled start times (schedules) of the slides calculated in such a manner are presented in time series, for example, for each lane so that the member can confirm.

  Further, in the case of the present embodiment, as described later, in addition to the actual lane, individual bidders using the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 or the like from among a large number of displays displayed in the actual lane. A specific lane according to the lane is selectively extracted and displayed.

This realizes an environment where bidders can participate more comfortably.
The calculation of each scheduled start time for each lane and the presentation of the schedule are performed, for example, by the control apparatus 200. Thereby, the slip control device 200 is equipped with the slip start time prediction device and the slip prediction progress presentation device according to the present embodiment. The slide start time prediction device and the slide prediction progress presentation device are mounted on the slide control device 200 which is one node, but may be mounted on another node. They may be mounted on different nodes.

  The slide control device 200 has a functional configuration as illustrated in FIG. 3 in order to control the calculation of each scheduled start time for each lane and to control the progress of the slide. That is, the line control device 200 includes a line work control unit 310, a communication unit group 320, an authentication unit 330, a successful bid price prediction unit 340, a start time prediction unit 350, an error calculation unit 360, an absence management unit 370, a screen creation unit 380, And a data storage unit 390.

  The communication unit group 320 includes a plurality of communication units for transmitting and receiving data via the network 30 or 230. The call task control unit 310 controls transmission / reception of data via at least one of the communication unit groups, controls various tasks for executing the call, and provides an environment for executing the call. As a result, in addition to the communication unit group 320, the authentication unit 330, the successful bid price prediction unit 340, the start time prediction unit 350, the error calculation unit 360, the absence management unit 370, and the screen creation unit 380 operate according to the interactive task control unit 310. To do. Each of the authentication unit 330 to the screen creation unit 380 has the following functions.

  The authentication unit 330 performs authentication for confirming whether or not the person using the purchase shop operation terminal device 215 or the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 is a member. In the seri system 1, by connecting a terminal device (PC, mobile terminal, game machine or the like) via the Internet with the linked PC 211, members who do not come to the seri hall can participate in the seri. . Members who do not come to the venue in that way are also subject to authentication. However, here, for the sake of convenience, it is assumed that only members who have visited the banquet hall.

The winning bid price predicting unit 340 predicts the winning bid price of the exhibit (used car) that has been exhibited for each discount. The forecast is made taking into account the market price of used cars that are listed on the line.
Every time a preset time interval (lifting interval) elapses from the start of the call to the result according to an instruction from the caller / adjuster operation terminal device 214, the call work control unit 310 The current price is updated by adding the price (value range) set in advance. The start time prediction unit 350 calculates a time (scheduled prediction time) that is predicted to be required for each paste using such a current price update method and the successful bid price predicted by the successful bid price prediction unit 340. Then, the estimated start time of each transition is further calculated using each calculated predicted predicted time.

  The error calculation unit 360 calculates, for each lane, an error between the estimated start time calculated by the start time prediction unit 350 and the actual start time (actual start time). The error is hereinafter referred to as “remaining difference”.

  The absence management unit 370 is for responding to the absence application. The screen creation unit 380 generates an image (screen) to be displayed on the seat vehicle search terminal device 216, the slide search terminal device 133, the slide status display monitor 221, and the exhibit store display monitor 222.

  In the present embodiment, the screen creation unit 380 includes a my lane display control function 381 that performs a process of displaying the my lane 814a in addition to the actual actual lane 814b in the below-described schedule display area 814.

  Each of the authentication unit 330 to the screen creation unit 380 performs processing using the data stored in the data storage unit 390. The data storage unit 390 stores a slip data DB (database) 391, a market price information DB 392, a slip management information file 393, a venue information file 394, a slip result DB 395, an actual difference DB 396, and a member information DB 397.

  The functional configuration shown in FIG. 3 is realized by causing a computer used as the slide control device 200 to execute the slide control program 700. Both the slip start time prediction device and the slip prediction progress presentation device according to the present embodiment are realized by executing a subprogram of the slip control program 700.

  Here, the sub-program that realizes the sliding start time prediction device according to the present embodiment is the “start time prediction program 701”, and the my lane display control function 381 that displays the my lane according to the present embodiment is provided to realize the sliding prediction progress presentation device. The subprograms are respectively referred to as “screen creation programs 702”.

  Here, with reference to FIG. 4, a computer to which the present embodiment can be applied, that is, a computer that can be used as the slide control device 200 by executing the slide control program 700 will be specifically described.

  The computer illustrated in FIG. 4 includes a CPU 61, a memory 62, an external storage device 65, a medium drive device 66, and a network connection device group 67, which are connected to each other via a bus 68. The configuration illustrated in FIG. 4 is an example, and the present invention is not limited to this.

The CPU 61 controls the entire computer.
The memory 62 is a semiconductor memory such as a RAM or the like that temporarily stores a program or data stored in the external storage device 65 (or the portable recording medium 70) during program execution, data update, or the like. It is a module. The CPU 61 performs overall control by reading the program into the memory 62 and executing it.

  The external storage device 65 is, for example, a hard disk device (including a disk array device) or a nonvolatile semiconductor memory. Mainly used for storing various data and programs. The medium driving device 66 accesses a portable recording medium 70 such as an optical disk or a magneto-optical disk.

  The network connection device group 67 is at least the number of network connection devices that enable communication via the networks 30 and 230. Since the networks 30 and 230 are respectively duplexed, the network connection device group 67 includes four or more network connection devices.

  The slide control program 700 is recorded in the external storage device 65 or the portable recording medium 70 or acquired by the network connection device group 67 via the network 30 or 230. The slide control device 200 is realized by reading the slide control program 700 into the memory 62 and executing it by the CPU 61.

  In the configuration shown in FIG. 4, the data storage unit 390 in FIG. 3 is, for example, the external storage device 65 or the medium driving device 66 on which the portable recording medium 70 is mounted. The communication unit group 320 is, for example, the network connection device group 67. When it is assumed that the slide control program 700 is stored in the external storage device 65, all of the communication unit group 320 to the screen creation unit 380 of the slide control device 200 are, for example, the CPU 61, the memory 62, the external storage device 65, and the bus. 68.

  In the slip data DB 391, the market price information DB 392, and the track result DB 395 to the member information DB 397 stored in the data storage unit 390, and in addition, the bar code management information file 393 and the hall information file 394, for example, the bar code data DB 391, the market price information DB 392, the bar code management The information file 393 and the member information DB 397 are copies of data stored in the business server 110.

What is updated at any time with the progress of the slip is, for example, the slip data DB 391, the slip result DB 395, the venue information file 394, and the residual difference DB 396.
Here, the slip data DB 391, the market price information DB 392, the slip result DB 395 to the member information DB 397, the slip management information file 393, the venue information file 394, and the like will be described in more detail.

  The seri data DB 391 is a database that stores data (seri data) necessary for the implementation of each seri. As illustrated in FIG. 5, each piece of drag data (record) includes an exhibition number 391a, a vehicle type 391b, a lane 391c, a start price 391d, a market price 391e, a predicted forecast time 391f, a scheduled schedule start time 391g, and an actual schedule start. Each attribute data of time 391h, absence application information 391i, and watch member 391j is included. Although not specifically shown, there is an exhibitor member number as attribute data.

  In each attribute data, the exhibition number 391a is identification information that can uniquely identify the corresponding message. The vehicle type 391b is data representing a used car that has been exhibited as an exhibit. The lane 391c is data representing the corresponding lane.

  In the present embodiment, it is assumed that the cutting is performed in 26 lanes A to Z. The exhibition number and the lane allocation to the seri are performed so that each lane has a smaller exhibition number as it is started earlier.

  The start price 391d is the start price of the chain. The market price is an average price at which used cars represented by the vehicle type data are sold. The estimated slip time 391f is a time predicted to be required for the corresponding slip. The scheduled start time 391g is the time at which the corresponding start is predicted to start. The actual start time 391h is the time when the corresponding start is actually started, and this data is stored after the start of the start.

  Absent application information 391i includes identification information (a member number is assumed here) representing a bidder who has made an absentee application, and a bidding upper limit amount presented by the bidder. This absence application information is added for each bidder who has made an absence application. When a plurality of bidders make an absence application, the absence application information is rated according to the maximum bid amount.

  The “absent application first place amount” in the absence application information 391i shown in FIG. 5 represents the bidding upper limit amount with the largest amount among the bidding upper limit amounts presented by each bidder. The “absent application first-ranked member” represents a bidder who has presented the highest bidding upper limit amount.

The watch member 391j is data representing a bidder who sets a corresponding message as a participation schedule (registers in the watch list).
In the case of the present embodiment, when the bidder registered as a watch member uses the seat vehicle search terminal device 216, the corresponding slip is displayed in the actual lane 814b, in addition to the actual lane 814b. Is also displayed at the same time.

Then, when the bidder presses the my lane button 218a of the lane switching button 218, the information on the individual lanes of the my lane 814a is displayed in the display area 82.
Accordingly, the bidder only needs to monitor the my lane 814a for the registration of his / her watch, and will not miss it even if the number of actual lanes 814b increases.

Furthermore, since the start time of the watch registration is competing, it can be seen only by looking at the my lane 814a, so that it is possible to reliably bid by absence application.
In addition, the bidder can receive a desired message for the corresponding message.

  The registration of the watch member 391j to the slide data DB 391, that is, the setting of the participation schedule for a desired bid by the bidder can be performed using the slide search terminal device 133 in addition to the seat vehicle search terminal device 216.

  Because of the above, what is copied from the business server 110 among the attribute data of the slide data is the exhibition number 391a, the vehicle type 391b, the lane 391c, the start price 391d, and the exhibitor member number. Data is added on the slide control device 200 side.

  The control apparatus 200 copies, for example, the serial data DB 391 in which the exhibition number, the vehicle type, and the start price are stored as attribute data of one record (slip data) from the business server 110, and stores other attribute data as needed. . Absence application information and watch members are updated by an application from a bidder. The update is performed by registration (including change in absence application division method) or deletion.

  The market price information DB 392 is a database used for predicting the winning bid price of a used car that has been exhibited. In the market price information DB 392, as illustrated in FIG. 6, a market price 392b is stored for each vehicle type 392a. The market price 391e stored in each record of the slip data DB 391 is obtained by extracting the market price 392b corresponding to the vehicle type 391b stored in each record from the market price information DB 392.

  The slip result DB 395 is a database for managing the finished slip. As illustrated in FIG. 7, each record stores attribute data of an exhibition number 395a, a successful bid price 395b, a successful bid member number 395c, a fixed confirmation time 395d, and a next exhibition number 395e.

  As described above, in accordance with an instruction from the sender / coordinator operation terminal device 214, the lifting work control unit 310 passes the preset lifting interval from the start of the waiting until the result is obtained. Each time, the current price is updated by adding a preset price range.

  The management information file 393 is a file for updating the current price and determining a successful bid, and stores a price range 393a, a lifting interval 393b, and a determination time 393c as illustrated in FIG.

  The determination time 393c is a condition for determining a bidder as a successful bidder based on the length of time during which the situation where there is only one bidder continues. In FIG. 8, “3” indicated as the decision time 393c indicates that when the situation where there is only one bidder continues for 3 seconds, that one bidder will be the winning bidder. The control device can be set in advance.

  In this embodiment, as described above, a schedule is set for each lane. As illustrated in FIG. 9, the residual difference DB 396 is a database for managing the residual difference 396 b that is an error between the schedule for each lane 396 a and the actual progress of the drag.

The member information DB 397 is a database that stores member information related to each bidder, and is used for authentication and the like.
As illustrated in FIG. 10, the member information DB 397 includes, for example, a member number 397a, a name 397b (here, a corporate name, a business name, etc. are also included, but collectively including “name”), watch list information 397c, It includes information such as preference information 397d and credit frame 397e.

  The watch list information 397c is a list of call numbers related to vehicles that the bidder registers and wants to buy at his / her own will (hereinafter, the messages extracted by the watch list information 397c are "Purchased").

  The preference information 397d stores the vehicle type and evaluation value of the vehicle that the bidder has made a successful bid in the past, as well as information on the vehicles registered in the watch list in the past (hereinafter, the information extracted by the preference information 397d). Are marked as “bid candidates” if necessary).

In the case of the present embodiment, the preference information 397d is referred to in display control of the my lane 814a described later.
With reference to FIG. 11, the above-described watch list information registration processing in the present embodiment will be described. FIG. 11 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a watch list information registration process.

Note that the processing of the flowchart of FIG. 11 is realized by causing a computer (CPU 61) used as the transaction task control unit 310 to execute a predetermined control program.
First, a member number is selected (step S610), the member information DB 397 is accessed with the member number, and the watch list information 397c is acquired (step S612).

Then, a serial number is acquired from the watch list information 397c (step S614).
Using the acquired serial number as a key, the data DB 391 is accessed, and the member number is additionally registered in the watch member 391j (step S616).

The processing from step S614 to step S616 is repeated for all the serial numbers included in the watch list information 397c (step S618).
Further, the processes in steps S610 to S618 described above are repeated for all member numbers (step S620).

  As a method for registering the watch member 391j in each record in the record data DB 391, for example, one member number is linked to one bit of a bit string having a bit number larger than the number of bidders, and ON / OFF of the bit concerned. Thus, it is conceivable to set / manage whether or not the member number is registered.

  In the preference information 397d in the member information DB 397, one preference attribute may be assigned to one bit of a bit string having a desired number of bits, and the presence / absence of the preference attribute may be managed by ON / OFF of the bit.

  For example, a membership number and a name are recorded in the membership card 4, and authentication is performed by checking whether or not a record (member information) in which the combination of the membership number and the name is stored in the membership information DB 397. Done in The credit limit is used for managing the execution of proxy bids based on absence applications.

  Next, the communication unit of the line control device 200 using the line data DB 391, the market price information DB 392, the line result DB 395 to the member information DB 397, and the line management information file 393 and the hall information file 394 stored in the data storage unit 390. Processing executed by each of the group 320 to the screen creation unit 380 will be described in more detail.

  The data storage unit 390 normally stores a market price information DB 392, a member information DB 397, a slide management information file 393, and a venue information file 394 other than the slide data DB 391, the slide result DB 395, and the residual difference DB 396. Seri data DB 391 is acquired from the business server 110 using the communication unit group 320 by the business task control unit 310 and stored in the data storage unit 390, for example, before the service at the conference venue is started. Seri result DB 395 and surplus difference DB 396 are subsequently created by, for example, the slip work control unit 310.

  After the slip data control unit 310 stores (copies) the slip data DB 391 in the data storage unit 390, the bid task control unit 310 instructs the bid price prediction unit 340 to predict the bid price of each column. In response to the instruction, the winning bid price predicting unit 340 predicts the winning bid price by referring to the market price information DB 392 using the vehicle type stored in each record of the slip data DB 391. The prediction of the winning bid price is performed by extracting the market price corresponding to the vehicle type of each record from the market price information DB 392 for each record of the slide data DB 391. The extracted market price is stored as a market price in each record of the slide data DB 391.

  In parallel with the bid price prediction unit 340 instruction for the bid price prediction unit 340, the line work control unit 310 instructs the start time prediction unit 350 to calculate the estimated time for each line. In response to this instruction, the start time prediction unit 350 sequentially extracts records in which the market price is stored from the records in the record data DB 391, calculates the forecast time using the market price of the extracted record, and further calculates The estimated start time is calculated using the estimated predicted time. The calculated estimated predicted time and estimated scheduled start time are stored in the record in the record data DB 391.

The calculation of the scheduled start time of the transition for one target exhibit is performed by integrating the predicted predicted times of the transitions performed before the target exhibit in the lane where the transition is performed. The estimated predicted time is calculated as follows, for example.
Forecast time = ((market price-start price) / price range) x venue coefficient x holding coefficient + determination time
(1)

Here, the venue coefficient is a coefficient that represents the tendency of the progression of the sali, and the holding factor is a coefficient that represents the tendency of the progression of the sari on the day when the sali is performed.
The holding coefficient is determined in consideration of, for example, the tendency of the sender / coordinator, the seller's tendency, and the like. The venue coefficient is, for example, a coefficient that is updated in consideration of the actual difference actually generated, the absolute value, and the like after all the endings are completed.

  In the present embodiment, by using each coefficient such as a venue coefficient and a holding coefficient for calculation of the prediction time, the prediction time can be calculated with higher accuracy. The calculation method of the estimated projection time is not limited to the equation (1). The calculation method may be selected from a plurality of prepared methods in consideration of the exhibit, the exhibitor, the situation on the event date, and the like. Also, even when calculating the predicted time using the equation (1), for example, the holding coefficient is changed according to the actual progress of the screen, and the predicted time of the screen and the estimated start time of the screen are changed again. You may make it perform calculation.

  The successful bid price prediction unit 340 and the start time prediction unit 350 are realized, for example, when the CPU 61 illustrated in FIG. 4 executes the schedule creation process illustrated in FIG. Here, the schedule creation processing will be described in detail with reference to FIG. In the schedule creation process, for example, the start time prediction program 701 is executed automatically when the slip control device 200 stores (copies) the slip data DB 391 of the business server 110 or by an instruction using the business terminal device 131 or the like. It is realized by doing.

  In the schedule creation process, a series of processes from step S11 to step S17 is executed for each slide. By executing the processing loop once, the prediction of the estimated time for the transition and the calculation of the estimated start time are performed. As described above, the exhibition number and the lane allocation to the slide are performed so that each lane has a smaller exhibition number as it is started earlier. For this reason, the target talk is performed from the smaller exhibition number. When the processing loop is first executed, the smallest exhibition number among the exhibition numbers is selected to identify a message to be targeted.

  First, in step S11, the CPU 61 specifies the current exhibition number to be targeted, searches the data DB 391 using the identified exhibition number as a key, and extracts and extracts the record storing the application number. Get the car model in the record. In subsequent step S12, the CPU 61 searches the market price information DB 392 using the acquired vehicle type as a key, thereby acquiring a market price associated with the vehicle type. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S13.

  In step S <b> 13, the CPU 61 accesses the lift management information file 393 and acquires the value width, the lift interval, and the determination time. In the next step S14, the CPU 61 accesses the venue information file 394 and acquires the venue coefficient and the holding coefficient. In the next step S15, the CPU 61 calculates the estimated predicted time using the equation (1), and further calculates the estimated scheduled start time using the estimated estimated time. For example, the estimated start time is stored for each lane, for example, by storing the estimated start time calculated immediately before, and calculating the predicted start time at the estimated start time of the lane to which the target message is currently assigned. This is done by adding time. The scheduled start time of the slip calculated in this way is stored in place of the scheduled start time of the previous slip.

  In step S <b> 16, the CPU 61 stores the estimated estimated time and estimated estimated start time in the corresponding record in the estimated data DB 391 along with the acquired market price. In the next step S17, the CPU 61 increments the exhibition number to be targeted. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S20.

  In step S20, the CPU 61 determines whether or not the incremented exhibition number exceeds the maximum value of existing exhibition numbers. When it is determined that the incremented exhibition number exceeds the maximum exhibition number (in the case of YES), the schedule creation process ends here. When it is determined that the incremented exhibition number is equal to or less than the maximum exhibition number (in the case of NO), the process returns to step S11 and the search data DB 391 is searched using the incremented exhibition number.

  Note that not all numbers between the minimum exhibition number and the maximum exhibition number are used. For this reason, when a record cannot be extracted in step S11, it transfers to step S17 mentioned later. If the vehicle type that completely matches the acquired vehicle type (vehicle type (name, type, etc.), year, color, etc.) is not stored in the market price information DB 392, it is determined in step S12 that it is closest to the acquired vehicle type. Market prices for possible car models are acquired.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the scheduled start times of all the slips are calculated before the first slip is started. This is for responding to bidders who select a narrative to participate before the first narrative starts and schedule a ceremonial participation along the selection of the target narrative.

  The estimated start time of the slip calculated as described above is obtained by individually considering the difference between the start price set for each slip and the expected successful bid price. For this reason, the calculated estimated start time of the slip becomes a highly accurate one that can be regarded as having a small error from the actual slip start time.

  In response to, for example, a slip end notification from the slipper / coordinator operation terminal device 214, the slip task control unit 310 adds one record r1 to the slip result DB 395, and stores the result of the slip in the record r1. In the record r1, as shown in FIG. 7, the exhibition number of the finished bid, the successful bid price (final price), the number of the bidder member who has made a successful bid, the bid confirmation time, and the next exhibition number to be implemented are displayed. Each is stored as attribute data.

  For example, the slip job control unit 310 instructs the error calculation unit 360 to calculate the actual difference in response to a slip completion notification from the slipper / coordinator operation terminal device 214. As illustrated in FIG. 5, the error calculation unit 360 that has received the instruction, for example, records 102: 55: 55 of the current time in the record r2 that stores the item number 60 of the item executed next to the item data DB 391. Is stored in the record r2 as the actual start time of the next execution (exhibition number 60). After updating the slide data DB 391, the difference between the scheduled start time of the record r2 and the current time is calculated as the actual difference of the lane where the shift has been completed, and the calculated actual difference is stored in the actual difference DB 396. It is determined whether it is different from the actual difference of the next same lane.

As a result, when it is determined that the calculated actual difference is different from the actual difference stored in the actual difference DB 396 of the next same lane, the calculated actual difference is set to the latest residual of the next same lane. The difference is stored in the actual difference DB 396. In this way, in this embodiment, for each lane, every time the next same lane is finished, the calculation of the actual difference of the next same lane and the update of the actual difference DB 396 according to the calculation result are performed. Is going.
For this reason, the bidder can confirm the difference between the schedule and the current progress in real time. In the present embodiment, the fixed time of the target thread is set as the start time of the next thread. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the fixed time may be different from the next start time. It is also possible to add. In addition, since burrs are implemented for each lane, it is necessary to consider the lane.

  The error calculation unit 360 that performs the processing as described above is realized, for example, when the CPU 61 illustrated in FIG. 4 executes the residual error update processing illustrated in FIG. The Here, the update process will be described in detail with reference to FIG.

  First, in step S31, the CPU 61 stores the current time as the actual start time of the record that stores the exhibition number of the next execution in the same lane as the end of the transmission data DB 391. Is reflected in the data DB 391. In addition, using the estimated start time of the slip stored in the record, the residual error in the lane where the slip is completed is calculated. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S32.

  In step S32, the CPU 61 acquires the residual error of the lane from the residual difference DB 396, and determines whether or not the acquired residual error is different from the calculated residual error. If the acquired actual error is different from the calculated actual error, the determination is YES and the process proceeds to step S33, and the CPU 61 calculates the residual difference calculated as the residual difference of the next same lane in the residual difference DB 396. Stores the actual difference. After the actual difference DB 396 is updated in this way, the actual difference update process ends. On the other hand, if the residual error and the calculated residual error are not different, the determination is no, and the residual difference update process ends here.

  For the bidder who uses the seat vehicle search terminal device 216, the slip work control unit 310 stores the estimated start time stored in each record of the slip data DB 391 and the actual difference DB 396 as described above. Present the actual difference of each lane.

Here, as an example of the display control of the my lane in the present embodiment, a presentation method will be specifically described with reference to FIG.
In FIG. 1, a progress display screen 80 is a display example displayed on the display device 217 screen mounted on or connected to the seat vehicle search terminal device 216. The progress display screen 80 includes two display areas 81, and 82 are used separately.

  The display area 81 is used for display of a slide progress display screen that indicates the progress of the slip estimated by calculating the predicted start time of the slip, and the display area 82 is used for display of a screen desired by the bidder.

  In the case of the present embodiment, the display area 81 corresponds to the member number of the member who has logged into the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 in addition to the plurality of actual lanes 814b corresponding to the actual lanes A to Z. Based on the watch list information 397c in the member information DB 397, a my lane 814a is provided as a virtual lane for extracting and displaying the corresponding slip from the real lane 814b side.

Further, in this my lane 814a, a message extracted from the actual lane 814b corresponding to the preference information 397d in the member information DB 397 described above is displayed as necessary.
For example, when an idle time longer than a predetermined length occurs between the estimated start times of a plurality of registrations registered in the watch list information 397c, the indication selected based on the preference information 397d during that idle time zone Are extracted from the real lane 814b side and displayed on the my lane 814a.

In addition, when there is a conflict in predicted execution time zones registered in the watch list information 397c, it is possible to make a missed bid as described below.
Accordingly, there is an advantage for the bidder that it is possible to bid more numbers without waste by effectively using the free time other than the bid for the target slip registered in the watch list information 397c.

  Also, from the side of the organizer and exhibitor of the line, there is an advantage that the exhibit can be bid for a larger number of bidders who are not registered for watch, and the possibility of winning a bid and the winning bid price can be improved. is there.

  Note that as the preference information 397d, for example, “vehicle type” registered in the watch list information 397c, “evaluation information” of the vehicle, bidding history information of the bidder in the past, and the like can be registered.

Furthermore, priorities as extraction conditions can be given to these registered information and displayed on the my lane 814a.
For example, when the above-mentioned vacant time is relatively short, first, the “car model” that is the same as or similar to the watch list information 397c is preferentially extracted from the actual lane 814b and displayed on the my lane 814a (preference condition c1). If there is more free time, a message with similar “evaluation information” is extracted from the actual lane 814b regardless of the “vehicle type” and displayed on the my lane 814a (preference condition c2). Is based on the past bidding history information of the bidder, regardless of “vehicle type” and “evaluation information”, a wider range is extracted from the actual lane 814b and displayed on the my lane 814a (preference condition c3) ,be able to.

In the present embodiment, among the icons 812 in the my lane 814a, the “car to be purchased” icon 812 is used for the symbol corresponding to the watch list information 397c, and the “bid candidate” is used for the symbol corresponding to the preference information 397d. The “car” icon 812 is used, and each icon has a different color and shape so that the member can easily discriminate.
Therefore, in addition to the time scale selection button 811, an icon legend display 814 c related to the icon 812 is displayed at the lower end of the display area 81.

  FIG. 1 shows a bidding screen for bidders to bid. In the display area 82, in addition to the bidding screen, a vehicle detail screen for confirming detailed information of the vehicle, a vehicle search screen for searching for a vehicle exhibited in the line, setting of a schedule to be participated in or setting It is possible to display a participation schedule setting screen, an absence application application screen, and the like that can be canceled according to bidder operations.

  In the bidding screen displayed in the display area 82, as illustrated in FIG. 1, a lane area 821 representing a lane where bidding is possible, and an exhibition number area 822 representing an exhibition number of the bidding. In addition, an information area 823 for confirming the information of the exhibited vehicle such as the vehicle type and the evaluation score by the person in charge, an image 824 of the exhibited vehicle, and a current price area 825 for confirming the current price are arranged.

  When the remaining time until the scheduled start time of the bidding set as the participation schedule by the bidder is less than a predetermined time, a message area 826 for notifying that is displayed. This message area 826 is displayed regardless of the type of screen.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the slide progress display screen displayed in the display area 81 is being implemented in each lane from the top of the progress display screen 80 for each lane in each of the my lane 814a and the actual lane 814b. The current listing number 813 of the serial number, each serial number (next serial number, serial number one after another) 813, and the actual difference 815 of the plurality of serial numbers that are executed following the serial number currently being executed in each lane are arranged. Below the residual difference 815, an icon 812 representing a schedule set by the bidder as a participation schedule is a position representing the scheduled start time of the schedule corresponding to the icon 812 with the vertical direction of the progress display screen 80 as the time axis. Is arranged.

  In the case of the present embodiment, in the display area 81, in addition to the actual lane 814b, the number of actual lanes 814b is provided by providing the my lane 814a that selectively displays the message of interest to the member as described above. The time when the bidder can easily start setting the schedule to participate in the watch list information 397c without being distracted by the display of a large number of messages other than the target message even if the number of events increases. You can check it.

  Hereinafter, the area of the my lane 814a and the actual lane 814b in which the icons 812 are arranged with the vertical direction of the progress display screen 80 as the time axis will be collectively referred to as a “seri schedule display area 814”.

  Under the schedule display area 814, buttons of “10 minutes”, “1 hour”, “6 hours”, and “12 hours” are arranged. These buttons are time scale selection buttons 811 in the slide schedule display area 814. By arranging a plurality of such time scale selection buttons 811, in this embodiment, the bidder can select a time range that can be displayed in the schedule schedule display area 814 at a time. When all the remaining margins cannot be displayed in the schedule display area, the scroll schedule display area 814 can be scrolled.

  On the other hand, the exhibitor can check the progress display screen 80 of the bid that the bidder displays on the seat vehicle search terminal device 216, for example, on the slide search terminal device 133. In the case of an exhibitor, when the icon 812 is arranged, the exhibitor exhibits the vehicle. Thereby, like the bidder, the exhibitor can more easily cope with the cause that he / she has exhibited the vehicle.

  In the present embodiment, the arrangement of the icons 812 on the time axis is not changed. This is to make it possible to determine the influence of the actual difference based on the schedule confirmed by the exhibitor. However, the schedule (schedule schedule display area 814) reflecting the actual difference may be confirmed.

  The icon 812 and the exhibition number 813 arranged on the slide progress display screen are link buttons for displaying the vehicle detail screen of the vehicle exhibited by the corresponding slide. Here, with reference to FIG. 14, the application method of an absentee application is demonstrated concretely.

  FIG. 14A shows a display example of the progress display screen 80 after the bidder clicks the exhibition number 813 of “1060”. When the bidder clicks the exhibition number 813, the vehicle detail screen of the vehicle that is exhibited with the exhibition number 1060 is displayed in the display area 82.

  On the vehicle detail screen, an “absence registration_button 921 for absence application” and a start price area 922 where the start price can be confirmed are arranged. When the absence registration_button 921 is clicked, the presence of the exhibition number 1060 is absent. 14B shows a state in which the absence application application screen is displayed, which is displayed in the bidding upper limit amount input area 923 and the bidding upper limit amount input area 923. A Yes_ button 924 and a No_ button 925 are arranged for allowing the bidder to select whether or not to apply for registration of an absence application with the input bidding upper limit amount. After moving the cursor into the money amount input area 923, it can be performed using the keyboard.

  The absence application screen may be displayed in a situation where an absence application is registered. In that case, a Cancel_button 926 for applying for cancellation of registration of the absent application is arranged on the absent application application screen.

  When the bidder clicks the Yes_ button 924 on the absence application screen, for example, an application that stores the bidding maximum amount entered in the bidding maximum amount input area 923, the bidder's membership number, exhibition number, and application details A message (data information or data signal) is transmitted from the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 to the sliding control device 200. As a result, when the application content in the received application message (data information or data signal) is registered or changed, the control apparatus 200 can set the bidding upper limit amount and the bidding price in the message (data information or data signal). The member's member number is added to or overwritten in the record storing the exhibition number in the message (data information or data signal) in the data DB 391. If the application was canceled, the maximum bid amount in the message (data information or data signal) and the member number of the bidder were stored, and the exhibition number in the message (data information or data signal) in the dialogue data DB 391 was stored. Delete from record.

  When the bidder clicks the No_ button 925, the previous screen is displayed in the display area 82 without updating the slide data DB 391. The display in the display area 82 of the immediately preceding screen is also performed when the bidder clicks the Yes_ button 924 or the Cancel_ button 926. However, when the absence application is registered or changed, a message area 927 for notifying the bidder that the absence application is registered is arranged on the immediately preceding screen. Thereby, the progress display screen 80 is in a state as illustrated in FIG. On the other hand, when the absence application is not registered by clicking the No_ button 925 or the Cancel_ button 926, the screen is not the screen illustrated in FIG. 14C, but is illustrated in FIG. 14A. Will be displayed.

  The absence management unit 370 in FIG. 3 receives the application message (data information or data signal) via the communication unit group 320 when the transmission work control unit 310 of the transmission control device 200 receives an instruction from the transmission work control unit 310. Then, the above-described drag data DB 391 is updated.

  The screen creation unit 380 creates various screens including the screens illustrated in FIG. 1 and FIG. 14 according to the instructions of the work control unit 310 by referring to the slide data DB 391 and the residual difference DB 396, Output to the control unit 310. The bidder can transmit the screen created in this way to the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 via the communication unit group 320, so that the bidder can create the schedule, the schedule, and the actual You can confirm the difference with the progress, apply for absence application, etc. For this reason, the screen creation program 702 is installed in the program control program 700 as an implementation of the screen creation unit 380.

FIG. 15 is a diagram illustrating an example of the flow of operations of the bidder and the seat vehicle search terminal device that realize the application for absence application.
It is assumed that the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 is used by the bidder at any time as needed on the slide venue side. From this, the bidder who is thinking about some application for absence application or confirming the registration contents logs in by causing the vacant seat vehicle search terminal device 216 to read the member card 4 (S51). By logging in, a screen as illustrated in FIG. 1 is displayed on the seat vehicle search terminal device 216.

  The bidder displays a desired screen (vehicle search screen) on the displayed display progress display screen or display area 82, and displays a message that meets his / her desired conditions from among the events held from the next time. Search is performed as necessary (S52). In this way, the bidder displays the desired vehicle detail screen as illustrated in FIG. 14A, and displays the absence application screen by clicking the absence registration_button 921 on the vehicle detail screen. It is displayed in the area 82. Thereafter, the bidder inputs the bid upper limit amount into the bid upper limit amount input area 923 as necessary, and clicks the Yes_ button 924, No_ button 925, or Cancel_ button 926 (S53).

  The seat vehicle search terminal device 216 determines the application content from the button clicked among the bidder's Yes_button 924, No_button 925, and Cancel_button 926 (S54), and performs processing according to the determination result. As a result, when the application content is registered or changed, that is, when the bidder clicks the Yes_ button 924, for example, the bidding upper limit amount entered in the bidding upper limit amount input area 923, the bidding member's membership number, listing The application message storing the number and the application content for registration or change is transmitted from the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 to the sliding control device 200. The seat vehicle search terminal device 216 waits to receive a screen as illustrated in FIG. 14C from the sway control device 200 by transmitting a message (data information or data signal), and displays the screen ( Above, S55).

  If the application content is cancellation, for example, the application message storing the bidding upper limit amount input in the bidding upper limit amount input area 923, the bidder member number, the exhibition number, and the application content for requesting cancellation is searched for the seat vehicle. It is transmitted from the terminal device 216 to the slide control device 200. The screen is displayed after receiving the screen as illustrated in FIG. 14A from the sway control device 200 by the transmission of the message (S56).

  If the application is not made, that is, if the bidder clicks the No_ button 925, it requests the control device 200 to retransmit the screen displayed in the display area 82 immediately before, and waits for the screen to be received. A screen is displayed (S57). In the screen example illustrated in FIG. 14, the displayed screen is as illustrated in FIG. 14A or 14 </ b> C.

  After the screen on the display area 82 is switched in this manner, the bidder determines whether or not to check a line that meets other desired conditions (S58). As a result, when it is determined that it is not necessary to examine another line (No in S58), logoff is performed, and use of the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 is ended (S58 → end). When it is determined that it is necessary to examine another line (Yes in S58), a line that needs to be examined is searched (S58 → S52).

  The cancellation of the absence application may be desired by the bidder after the corresponding message starts. Therefore, in this embodiment, when the bidder starts registering the absence application, the Cancel_button 926 as illustrated in FIG. 14B is changed to the type of the screen displayed in the display area 82. It is made to display regardless. As a result, if the bidder clicks the Cancel_ button 926 before the talk is finished, the absence application for the talk is invalidated. It is assumed that the invalidation control apparatus 200 sets the credit frame in the member information of the bidder in the member information DB 397 to “0”. This is because bidders cannot make bids that exceed the credit limit.

  From this, the bidder control device 200 uses the credit frame in the member information of the bidder who bids as the current price (bid price) regardless of whether the bidder participates in the bid due to the absence application. By comparing, it is confirmed whether or not the bid is valid. For example, every time a successful bid is made, the credit management unit 400 updates the credit limit of the bidder in the member information DB 397 by subtracting the successful bid amount.

  For this reason, the cancellation of the absence application that has started is logged in by allowing the bidder to read the member card 4 in the seated vehicle search terminal device 216, as illustrated in FIG. (S61) After the login, the bidder clicks the Cancel_button 926 after waiting for the screen on which the Cancel_button 926 as illustrated in FIG. 14B is arranged to be displayed in the display area 82. Is done. By the click operation, the seat vehicle search terminal device 216 transmits, for example, a message storing an exhibition number for canceling the absence application, a member number of the bidder, and an application content for requesting cancellation of the absence application to the transmission control device 200. To do.

  Upon receiving such a message, the slide control device 200 updates the credit frame of the record storing the member number in the received message of the member information DB 397 to 0, and invalidates the bidder's bid. The credit line is restored to its original value after the corresponding message is completed. Thereby, the bidder's bid is temporarily invalidated.

Next, based on the description of the above-described prediction technique for the sliding start time, an example of mylane display control in the present embodiment will be specifically described with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 17 is a flowchart showing an example of my lane display control in the present embodiment. The processing in steps S512 to S528 in the flowchart of FIG. 17 is performed by causing the computer (CPU 61) used as the slide control device 200 to execute the screen creation unit 380 (my lane display control function 381) as the slide control program 700. Realized.

As a result of the processing in steps S610 to S618 described above, information on the member number for watch registration is registered in the slide data DB 391 (step S510).
The CPU 61 performs login and acquisition of member information. Specifically, member authentication using the above-described member card 4 is performed (step S512).

  In the present embodiment, immediately after this authentication, the presence / absence of a display by preference information 397d (to be described later) other than the watch list information 397c in My Lane 814a, the determination order of various information in preference information 397d, etc. are optionally accepted. Remember.

  Next, the execution time of the actual lane 814b for the sliding status screen is predicted and displayed (slip data generation) by the above-described processing of S11 to S20 (FIG. 15) (step S514).

  Next, one of the unprocessed thread data within the display range of the thread schedule display area 814 in the actual lane 814b generated in step S514 described above is selected (step S516).

And it is discriminate | determined whether the member number of login information is contained in the watch member 391j of the said discount data (step S518).
If it is determined that it is included, the data is displayed on the my lane 814a (step S522).

  If it is determined in step S518 that it is not included, it is further determined whether or not the bid data corresponds to the bidder's preference information 397d (for example, preference conditions c1 to c3) (step S520). If applicable, the data is displayed on the my lane 814a (step S522).

As described above, when the slip data is extracted based on the preference information 397d, the free time is determined and a desired priority order is set.
On the other hand, if neither of the determinations in step S518 and step S520 described above is applicable, step S522 is skipped and display on my lane 814a is not performed, and whether or not the current state / screen update is stopped is displayed. If the display / update is continued, the process returns to step S514.

Next, it is determined whether or not the current extraction result in the my lane 814a competes with the estimated time of the displayed display data (step S524).
If it is determined that there is a conflict, the response data absence bid (the process in FIG. 15 described above) is performed (step S526).

However, in this case, since the login is completed, the above-described S52 to S58 are performed.
Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S528 described above.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, for example, when displaying in chronological order on a plurality of real lanes 814b in the slip schedule display area 814 by a start time prediction technique for a large number of slips in a plurality of lanes By extracting the slip data corresponding to the member's watch list information 397c and displaying it collectively on the my lane 814a, the slip data that the member desires to participate can be displayed clearly and easily.

  That is, the time and the time for the bidder to bid are intensively displayed on the my lane 814a, and the time for performing a separate participation such as the reliable participation in the desired bid and the current car check is increased, thereby improving convenience. In addition, the number of error tags due to lane selection mistakes and mistakes will be zero. As a result, false successful bids are reduced and customer complaints are reduced. In addition, the number of bidders participating in the talk will increase and the number of bids is expected to increase.

  That is, even if the number of actual lanes 814b increases, only the watch list data that the member wishes to participate in is selectively displayed on one my lane 814a. Since it is only necessary to gaze at the my lane 814a, visibility can be improved, fatigue in bidding work can be reduced, convenience can be improved, and oversight and erroneous successful bids can be reliably prevented.

From the perspective of the organizer and exhibitor of the seri, there is an advantage that the number of bidders can be increased by improving the convenience of the seri system and the successful bid rate is improved.
In addition, it is easy to detect that the predicted execution time zone registered in the watch list information 397c conflicts, and in the case of conflict, the number of participations can be increased by causing a missed bid.

  Further, for example, when a free time longer than a predetermined length occurs between the estimated start times of a plurality of registrations registered in the watch list information 397c, the free information is displayed in the free time zone in the other preference information 397d. Since the selection selected based on the actual lane 814b is extracted and displayed on the my lane 814a, the member effectively uses the free time other than the bid for the target registration registered in the watch list information 397c. And there is an advantage that you can bid more numbers without waste.

  Also, from the side of the organizer and exhibitor of the line, there is an advantage that the exhibit can be bid for a larger number of bidders who are not registered for watch, and the possibility of winning a bid and the winning bid price can be improved. is there.

As a result, it is possible to provide a drag control technology that can improve the satisfaction of the bidder, the exhibitor, and the organizer.
In this embodiment, as an example, the bid price prediction function for each price, the calculation function for the scheduled start time for each price, the function for responding to an application for absence application, and the function for calculating the residual difference are all controlled. Although it is installed in the apparatus 200, each function may be distributed to one or more nodes included in the slide system. Further, all the functions may be mounted on a node other than the control device 200. For this reason, selection of a node on which a function is mounted, selection of a function to be mounted on a selected node, and the like can be performed very widely.

Needless to say, the present invention is not limited to the configuration exemplified in the above-described embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
For example, in the above description, an example has been described in which the start time is predicted by the elevator system 20 and the icons 812 of each slide are arranged based on the prediction result. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the start time prediction unit 350 is not limited thereto. The fixed start scheduled time set in the slip data DB 391 at the time of registration may be acquired and used based on the information on the exhibition application without performing the prediction process by the error calculation unit 360 or the like. A similar effect can be obtained.

  In addition, for example, the item to be applied to the slide is not limited to a vehicle such as a used car, and can be widely applied to a general item.
