  DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, preferred embodiments (hereinafter referred to as embodiments) for carrying out the invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a document data management apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment. In the document data management apparatus 100, one of the icons that are identification images of document data displayed on the display unit 200 is defined as a key document, and position information indicating the arrangement of other icons with respect to the key document is stored. A document data search process using information is executed. In the search process, the document data management apparatus 100 acquires, as a search condition, information indicating an icon (reference icon, reference identification image) serving as a search reference and an arrangement of the icon to be searched with respect to the reference icon. This assumes a case where the user desires to search for “a document indicated by an icon displayed at the lower right of a certain icon at around ** month and day”. This is because, when a plurality of icons are displayed on the display unit 200 connected to the document data management apparatus 100 and used for work, the icons of document data related to each other may be displayed at positions close to each other. This is because many users remember the positional relationship and display time in many cases.

  The document data management apparatus 100 is connected to the display unit 200 and the operation unit 300. In addition, the document data management apparatus 100 includes a control unit 120, a user I / F unit 140, and a storage unit 160.

  In the present embodiment, the document data management apparatus 100 is composed of, for example, a personal computer or a workstation. The display unit 200 is, for example, a display in the present embodiment, and the operation unit 300 is configured by, for example, a keyboard, a mouse, or the like in the present embodiment.

  In the present embodiment, the control unit 120 and the user I / F unit 140 of the document data management apparatus 100 are realized as functions of a CPU, for example. In the present embodiment, the storage unit 160 is configured by a memory or the like, for example.

  The control unit 120 includes a display information generation unit 122, a key document definition unit 124, a position information generation unit 126, a search condition acquisition unit 128, and a search unit 130.

  The display information generation unit 122 generates a display signal indicating the display content of the workspace 400 displayed on the display unit 200 based on inputs from the user I / F unit 140, the search unit 130, the storage unit 160, and the like. The data is output to the display unit 200 and the position information generation unit 126.

  The key document definition unit 124 defines any one of the document data in which icons are displayed in the workspace 400 as a key document that serves as a reference for position information to be described later, and indicates a document defined as a key document. The designation signal is output to the position information generation unit 126.

  The position information generating unit 126 is an icon (key icon) indicating a document specified by the key document specifying signal based on a display signal input from the display information generating unit 122, time information input from a clock unit (not shown), and the like. , Position information indicating the arrangement of the display positions of the icons excluding the key identification image) with respect to the display position of the key icon is generated and output to the storage unit 160.

  The search condition acquisition unit 128 sets reference icon designation information for designating one of a plurality of icons as a reference icon based on an input from the operation unit 300 via the user I / F unit 140, and a display range of the search target icon. A search condition including a display range condition designated based on the display position of the reference icon is acquired.

  The search unit 130 performs a search process on the position information stored in the storage unit 160 using the search condition acquired by the search condition acquisition unit 128, and outputs a signal indicating the search result to the display information generation unit 122.

  The user I / F unit 140 acquires a signal input from the operation unit 300 based on a user operation on the operation unit 300 and outputs the signal to the display information generation unit 122 and the search condition acquisition unit 128.

  The storage unit 160 stores document data managed by the document data management apparatus 100, position information generated by the position information generation unit 126, and the like.

  Hereinafter, the operation of the document data management apparatus 100 will be described in detail. First, position information storage processing will be described.

  2, 3, and 4 are diagrams illustrating an example of a workspace 400 displayed on the display unit 200. In the workspace 400, icons 404, 406, and 408 indicating document data stored in the storage unit 160 are displayed. In the workspace 400, a cursor 420 that moves based on a user operation on the operation unit 300 is displayed.

  By designating each of the icons 404, 406, and 408 with the cursor 420 and performing an operation such as double clicking on the operation unit 300, the content of the corresponding document data is displayed on the display unit 200. Further, the contents of the document data are edited. The icons 404, 406, and 408 may be moved on the workspace 400 based on an operation such as dragging or dropping in the operation unit 300 after one or more of them are designated by the cursor 420. Deletion from the workspace 400 is performed.

  FIG. 3 shows the workspace 400 when moved after the icon 406 is designated in the workspace 400 shown in FIG. FIG. 4 shows the workspace 400 when the icon is moved and the icon 408 is further moved in the workspace 400 shown in FIG.

  In the storage process, position information indicating the display position of the icon in the workspace 400 is generated by the position information generation unit 126 and stored in the storage unit 160. A storage process of position information when the workspace 400 shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 is displayed will be described below.

  First, when the workspace 400 shown in FIG. 2 is displayed on the display unit 200, the key document definition unit 124 defines the document data indicated by the icon 404 as a key document. Note that which document data is defined as a key document is determined based on a predetermined rule. For example, among the document data in which icons are displayed in the workspace 400, A rule is set for determining the document data with the oldest editing date and time, the document data with the newest editing date and time, document data in a predetermined format, and the like as the key document. The key document may be determined by the user of the document data management apparatus 100. When the icon indicating the document data defined as the key document is deleted from the workspace 400, the key document is newly defined from the document data in which the icon is displayed.

  When a change such as movement of an icon is performed in the workspace 400, the position information generation unit 126 generates position information indicating the position of the changed icon and outputs the position information to the storage unit 160. Here, in a state where the workspace 400 shown in FIG. 2 is displayed, the icon 406 moves at 14:00:30 on July 1, 2010, and the state shown in FIG. A case will be described in which the icon 408 moves to the state shown in FIG. 4 at 14:05:20 on July 1, 2012. When the display position of any of the icons 406 and 408 in the workspace 400 is changed, the position information generation unit 126 changes the display position of the changed icon to the display position of an icon indicating a key document (hereinafter, key icon). The position information indicated using the arrangement is generated. FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of position information generated by the position information generation unit 126. FIG. 5 shows position information when the above-described operation is performed. The position information includes the key document ID (hereinafter, symbols used in the icons are used for easy understanding), the ID of the changed icon (hereinafter, the target icon), the change contents, and the change. The relative position of the target icon with respect to the subsequent key icon is included. The storage unit 160 stores the position information input from the position information generation unit 126.

  Next, the search process will be described. A user of the document data management apparatus 100 has “a document in which an icon is displayed at the lower right of a certain icon at a certain time”, “a document in which an icon is displayed near a certain icon at a certain time”, and the like. Information regarding a display state based on an icon (hereinafter referred to as a reference icon) is designated as a search condition.

  FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a search condition reception display 600 displayed on the display unit 200. The user operates the operation unit 300 to input to the search condition reception display 600. In the reference document input unit 602, the name of the document data indicated by the reference icon is input. The display time information input unit 604 receives time information related to the time when the icon of the document data to be searched is displayed. A display range input unit 606 receives a display range condition for designating a display range of an icon of a document to be searched based on a reference icon. As a display range input method, in addition to a method of inputting by words as in the display range input unit 606, a reference icon corresponding to a reference document input in the reference document input unit 602 as in the display range input unit 616. The display range 620 for 618 may be designated by the cursor 420. When the user inputs the search condition, the user clicks the search execution key 608.

  When the search execution key 608 is clicked, the search condition acquisition unit 128 outputs the input search condition to the search unit 130, and the search unit 130 executes a search process for searching for a document corresponding to the input search condition. . First, based on the position information stored in the storage unit 160, the search unit 130 searches for the icon except the reference icon for the display position of the reference icon specified by the input to the reference document input unit 602 at the specified time. Arrangement information indicating the arrangement (relative position) of each display position is generated.

  A case where the search condition shown in FIG. 6 is input in a state where the position information shown in FIG. 5 is stored will be described. When the reference icon indicating the document designated as the reference document in FIG. 6 is the icon 408 (C), the relative position of the icon 404 (A) reverses the relative relationship between the icon 404 (A) and the icon 408 (C). Therefore, it is obtained by inverting the sign of each component stored as the relative position of the icon 408 (C) in FIG. 5 and becomes (−6.2, 2.5). The relative position of the icon 406 (B) is calculated by subtracting each component of the relative position of the icon 408 (C) from each component of the relative position of the icon 406 (B) stored in FIG. That is, the relative position of the icon 406 (B) = (6.2-3.5, −2.5−2.2) = (2.7, −4.7). FIG. 7 is a table showing an example of arrangement information generated by the search unit 130.

  Next, the search unit 130 identifies the icon displayed at the display position specified by the display range condition at the time specified as the display time based on the generated arrangement information. If it is in the lower right, an icon having a positive horizontal component in the relative position and a negative vertical component is applicable, so the icon 406 (B) corresponds in the relative position shown in FIG.

  Then, the search unit 130 outputs information indicating the search result to the display information generation unit 122 and causes the display unit 200 to display the information. The search unit 130 outputs information indicating the position of the reference icon and information indicating the relative position of the icon obtained as the search result to the reference icon to the display information generation unit 122.

  Based on the information input from the search unit 130, the display information generation unit 122 causes the display unit 200 to display information indicating the search result in a manner that reproduces the displayed state. That is, the display information generation unit 122 displays the search result on the display unit 200 in a manner based on the position information. FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating an example of search results displayed in the workspace 400. The display information generation unit 122 displays the icon indicating the document data as a search result at a normal density with a thin reference icon.

  This completes the search process. The user of the document data management apparatus 100 recognizes the search result by display in the workspace 400. If the user clicks on any icon, the display information generation unit 122 causes the display unit 200 to display the content of the document data indicated by the clicked icon.

  Moreover, the display method of a search result is not limited to the display in the aspect which reproduces the state displayed as mentioned above, Other methods may be sufficient if it is an aspect based on position information. For example, in addition to the above-described display of the search result, clicking on an icon displayed as the search result may display information indicating the current position of the icon. The entire workspace 400 may be displayed. Further, the current storage location of the icon indicating the document data that is the search result may be directly displayed. In this case, the display method includes the current icon and an icon displayed in a predetermined range including the icon. May indicate the storage location, or the icon storage location may be displayed as character information such as an absolute path or a relative path. The icon storage location is often based on the related field of the icon, and the icons that are related to each other are often placed close to each other as described above. Recognize the current position of the document data (related document data, group to which it belongs, etc.). When an icon displayed as a search result is clicked, the contents of the document data corresponding to the icon are displayed.

  Some other examples of the storage processing and retrieval processing described above are shown below. 9 to 12 are diagrams illustrating other examples of the workspace 400 displayed on the display unit 200. In this example, icons are added and moved. From the state shown in FIG. 9 (the icon 900 (D) is a key icon), an icon 902 (E) is added (FIG. 10), and then an icon 904 (F) is added (FIG. 11). Further, an example in which the icon 902 (E) is moved (FIG. 12) is shown.

  FIG. 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of position information generated by the position information generation unit 126. FIG. 13 shows position information when the processing shown in FIGS. 9 to 12 is executed.

  In a state where the position information shown in FIG. 13 is stored, when “document indicated by the icon at the lower left of the icon 904 (F) at 15:08 on July 10, 2010” is searched, Relative information with respect to the icon 904 (F) is calculated. FIG. 14 is a table showing an example of relative information calculated by the search unit 130. The relative information shown in FIG. 14 is obtained by calculating relative information for the icon 904 (F) from the position information shown in FIG. In the relative information shown in FIG. 14, the icon that matches the search condition is the icon 902 (E). Therefore, an icon 902 (E) and an icon 904 (F) are displayed in the workspace 400 as search results.

  15 and 16 are diagrams showing another example of the workspace 400 displayed on the display unit 200. FIG. In this example, the icon is deleted. An example in which the icon 1502 (H) is deleted from the state shown in FIG. 15 (the icon 1500 (G) is a key icon) is shown.

  FIG. 17 is a diagram illustrating an example of position information generated by the position information generation unit 126. FIG. 17 shows position information when the processing shown in FIGS. 15 and 16 is executed. The search process is omitted.

  18 and 19 are diagrams showing other examples of the workspaces 400 and 402 displayed on the display unit 200. FIG. In this example, the icon displayed on the workspace 400 is moved to another workspace 402. In the workspace 400, an icon 1800 (I) is defined as a key icon, and in the workspace 402, an icon 1802 (J) is defined as a key icon. And the icon 1804 (K) is shown about the example moved to the workspace 402 from the workspace 400 (FIG. 16).

  FIG. 20 is a diagram illustrating an example of position information generated by the position information generation unit 126. FIG. 20 shows position information when the processing shown in FIGS. 18 and 19 is executed. The position information is stored for each of the workspaces 400 and 402, and the search process is performed similarly to the example described above using the position information regarding the workspace 400 or 402 in which the icon designated as the reference icon is displayed. Executed.

  21 and 22 are diagrams showing another example of the workspace 400 displayed on the display unit 200. FIG. In this example, the icon 2100 (L) defined as the key icon is deleted. An example in which the icon 2100 (L) is deleted from the state shown in FIG. 21 (FIG. 22) is shown.

  FIG. 23 is a diagram illustrating an example of position information generated by the position information generation unit 126. FIG. 23 shows position information when the processing shown in FIGS. 21 and 22 is executed. When the icon 2100 (L) defined as the key icon is deleted, the key document definition unit 124 defines one of the remaining icons 2102 and 2104 (here, the icon 2102 (M)) as the key icon. Then, the position information generation unit 126 calculates the relative position of another icon (icon 2104 (N)) with respect to the key icon, and outputs it to the storage unit 160 as position information.

  Next, the operation of the document data management apparatus 100 will be described using a flowchart. FIG. 24 is a flowchart showing a storage process of position information in the document data management apparatus 100 according to this embodiment.

  When the workspace 400 is displayed (S2400), first, the key document definition unit 124 of the document data management apparatus 100 defines one of the icons displayed in the workspace 400 as a key document (S2401). Next, the position information generation unit 126 generates position information of each icon at the time when the process of S2401 is executed, and stores it in the storage unit 160 (S2402).

  Thereafter, the document data management apparatus 100 checks whether or not the icon in the workspace 400 has been changed (S2403), and if the change has been made, the position information generation unit 126 generates the position information and stores the storage unit 160. (S2404). The storage process of the position information is executed until the workspace 400 is closed (S2405).

  Next, search processing in the document data management apparatus 100 will be described using a flowchart. FIG. 25 is a flowchart showing search processing in the document data management apparatus 100 according to the present embodiment.

  First, the search condition acquisition unit 128 acquires the search condition input to the search condition reception display 600 (S2500). Next, the search unit 130 generates arrangement information based on the icon specified as the reference icon in the search condition acquired by the search condition acquisition unit 128 from the position information stored in the storage unit 160 (S2501).

  Then, the search unit 130 specifies an icon that matches the search condition from the arrangement information generated in S2501 (S2502), and outputs information regarding the specified icon and reference icon to the display information generation unit 122 (S2503). The display information generation unit 122 displays the search result on the display unit 200 based on the information related to the icon and the reference icon specified in S2502 input in S2703 (S2504), and the search process ends.

  With the above configuration, in the document data management apparatus 100, the display position of the reference icon (reference identification image) that is one of a plurality of icons (identification images) and the display position of the search target icon (search target identification image) are related. The identification image search process can be performed using the information as a search condition.

  The document data management apparatus 100 is an information processing apparatus such as a personal computer, and is realized by operating a program stored in the memory of the information processing apparatus. This program may be provided by communication, or may be provided by being stored in a storage medium such as a CD-ROM that can be read by a computer.

  In the above-described embodiment, the configuration of the document data management apparatus 100 in which an icon is used as an identification image is shown. The identification image includes information (document data format, document data content, etc.) regarding the corresponding document data. Any other image may be used as long as the image is shown. For example, a thumbnail obtained by reducing a part of the content of the document data may be used.

  Further, in the above embodiment, the configuration in which the relative position of another icon with respect to the icon indicating the key document is stored as the icon display history is shown. However, if the relative information is used in the search processing, Other configurations may be used, for example, absolute information (coordinates of displayed positions, display time, etc.) of individual icons may be stored. When the key document is changed or when the key document is determined later without determining the key document, the relative information may be calculated based on the absolute information of the individual icons described above.

  In the above-described embodiment, the configuration in which the relative information on the position is used as the search condition is shown. However, the configuration in which other relative information is used in the search process may be used. The display may be used from several minutes before to several minutes later.

  Further, in the above embodiment, a configuration has been shown in which icons searched as search results are displayed at a normal density, but other configurations may be used as long as the search results are output in a format recognized by the user. For example, the searched icon may be displayed lightly or may be blinked. Further, the search result list may be displayed on the display unit 200, or the search result list may be printed on paper and output.

  In addition, regarding the input method of the search condition, the configuration in which the input to the search condition reception display 600 is shown in the above-described embodiment, but the input by other configurations such as input in an interactive form may be performed. Good. As for the input search condition, it may be configured such that a wide range condition is input for the display time and position, and the display time is configured to be “around 0:00”, “from 0:00 to 0:00”, etc. Alternatively, the position may be configured to specify the distance from the reference icon.

  In the above embodiment, a configuration is shown in which a search is performed based on the input search condition itself.
