Description

The present invention relates to programs, information processing devices, information processing methods and information processing systems.

In a system consisting of a plurality of terminals communicated with a server, a terminal is used to share a specific state (a web page displayed by a web browser) specified by the terminal A at a certain time with another terminal B. A technique for synchronizing A and terminal B via a communication network has been conventionally available (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
However, in order to realize this technology with predetermined information security, it is necessary to perform authentication processing from one of the terminal A and the terminal B to the other. In order to realize such an authentication process, it is necessary for the server to manage the user information corresponding to each terminal. However, it is necessary to pay close attention to the management of user information, and the user information may not be retained in the server or terminal due to various circumstances.
Therefore, it is required to share a specific state without going through a communication connection, but in order to meet this request, a great deal of effort is required to share with an excessive amount of information, so the user It is desirable that the information is provided with an amount of information that can be easily memorized and transmitted.

As an example of a technique that shortens an amount of information that is too much for humans to remember to a certain amount, any URL on the web is shortened to a shorter character string, and the original long URL and the URL are There is a technique for associating a short URL generated when registered and transferring to the original long URL when the short URL is accessed (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2013-120603 Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2012-174205

However, even with the above-mentioned technique for shortening the URL, the number of digits of the URL, which is an identifier with only lowercase alphanumeric characters, cannot be extremely shortened, so that it is not suitable for oral transmission.
Further, the method of shortening the URL is not scalable because the combination of identifiers is consumed every time new data is registered.
In addition, the URL indicates the location of information on the Web, as the name of the Uniform Resource Locator indicates, and the information provided at that location (corresponding to the above specific state) is arbitrary by the Web page creator. Can be specified in. Specifically, the information indicating the content of the top page of the company identified by a certain URL is arbitrarily specified, but the existing URL cannot guarantee the uniqueness of this information, and the uniqueness of this information cannot be guaranteed. As it is, it is not suitable for transmitting arbitrarily specified information. Therefore, the shortened URL technology, which is a service for shortening this URL, is also not suitable for transmitting this information.

The present invention has been made in view of such a situation, and is a technique for immediately sharing a specific state indicated by a certain device between users and between devices without performing a special user authentication process. The purpose is to establish.

In order to achieve the above object, the information processing program of one aspect of the present invention is

Each of the user terminals 1-1 to 1-m and the server 2 are connected to each other via a predetermined network N such as the Internet.

The server 2 provides a game execution environment for each of the user terminals 1-1 to 1-m, and provides various services related to the game executed on each of the user terminals 1-1 to 1-m. To do.
Each of the user terminals 1-1 to 1-m is composed of a smartphone or the like operated by each user, and executes various processes such as game execution.
Hereinafter, when it is not necessary to individually distinguish each of the user terminals 1-1 to 1-m, these are collectively referred to as "user terminal 1".

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a hardware configuration of the user terminal 1 in the information processing system of FIG.

The user terminal 1 is composed of a smartphone or the like as described above.
The user terminal 1 displays a CPU (Central Processing Unit) 21, a ROM (Read Only Memory) 22, a RAM (Random Access Memory) 23, a bus 24, an input / output interface 25, a touch operation input unit 26, and a display. A unit 27, an input unit 28, a storage unit 29, a communication unit 30, and a drive 31 are provided.

The CPU 21 executes various processes according to the program recorded in the ROM 22 or the program loaded from the storage unit 29 into the RAM 23.
Data and the like necessary for the CPU 21 to execute various processes are also appropriately stored in the RAM 23.

The CPU 21, ROM 22 and RAM 23 are connected to each other via the bus 24. An input / output interface 25 is also connected to the bus 24. A touch operation input unit 26, a display unit 27, an input unit 28, a storage unit 29, a communication unit 30, and a drive 31 are connected to the input / output interface 25.

The touch operation input unit 26 is composed of, for example, a capacitance type or resistance film type (pressure sensitive type) position input sensor laminated on the display surface of the display unit 27, and detects the coordinates of the position where the touch operation is performed.
Here, the touch operation means an operation of contacting an object with the touch operation input unit 26. The object that comes into contact with the touch operation input unit 26 is, for example, a user's finger or a touch pen.
The display unit 27 is composed of a display such as a liquid crystal display, and displays various images such as an image related to a game.

In addition, the removable media 41 can also store various data stored in the storage unit 29 in the same manner as the storage unit 29.

FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a hardware configuration of a server 2 according to an embodiment of the information processing apparatus of the present invention in the information processing system of FIG.

The server 2 includes a CPU 51, a ROM 52, a RAM 53, a bus 54, an input / output interface 55, an output unit 56, an input unit 57, a storage unit 58, a communication unit 59, and a drive 60. ..
Since the configuration of the server 2 is basically the same as the configuration excluding the touch panel of the user terminal 1, the description thereof will be omitted here.

By collaborating with various hardware and various software of the user terminal 1 of FIG. 2 and the server 2 of FIG. 3, the game can be executed on the user terminal 1.
That is, the information processing system of the present embodiment can execute various controls for a game in which a plurality of users can participate. In particular, the information processing system is controlled as follows as a control for instantly sharing data related to the game between users and between different types of devices (hereinafter referred to as "data sharing control") without special user authentication. Can be executed.

That is, the information processing system of the present embodiment executes control for a game in which a user specifies a wide variety of specific states, such as a card game or a box garden game (miniscape). The data referred to here means data indicating a specific state of the game.
The specific state of the game is a state that is reproducible and arbitrarily specified by the user. For example, in the case of a card game, a card deck (hereinafter, simply referred to as a deck) composed of a combination of a plurality of specific types of cards specified by the user is an example of a specific state.

The information processing system of the present embodiment can easily share the data specified by the user between different types of devices (different types of user terminals 1) through various media.
Codes are used to enable sharing of data specified by the user, i.e., data indicating a particular state of the game. Further, in order to easily share the data between different devices through various media, it is preferable to use a shortened code that has been shortened and converted to a degree that is easy for the user to remember.
However, the information processing system of the present embodiment does not directly assign the abbreviated code to a huge amount of data that can be arbitrarily specified by the user (that is, a specific state of the game that can be a huge kind). , Assign a short code to the "connection" that accesses to specify the data. This "connection" is an access made by the user terminal 1 (user) to the server 2 at an arbitrary timing, and is not permanent. That is, the number of user terminals 1 while accessing the server 2 through the game application software (or from the end of access to a predetermined period) is at most the number of registered users, which is a limited number compared to the type of data. Can be thought of as.
The information processing system of the present embodiment can adopt an extremely short abbreviated code of, for example, about 4 characters as the abbreviated code. Specifically, for example, even for complicated data having a combination of 10 to the 1000th power or more (a specific state of the game), the data is uniquely identified by using an extremely short abbreviation code of about 4 characters. be able to.

That is, in the present embodiment, the data is made independent of the identifier (hereinafter referred to as "first identifier") used when the data is distributed on various media (paper medium, SNS (Social Networking Service), wireless communication, etc.). The identifier (hereinafter referred to as "second identifier") used when the data is read into the game application software (hereinafter, "application software" is appropriately abbreviated as "application" or "app") is It is realized by an extremely short abbreviation code of about 4 characters.
Then, in the present embodiment, a two-step identifier management method that dynamically manages the correspondence between the first identifier and the second identifier is adopted. This makes it possible to distribute and input data that has both the ability to express information and the ease of input.

Specifically, for example, in the information processing system of the present embodiment, a unique first identifier is specified for data that is reproducible and indicates a specific state arbitrarily specified by the user. This first identifier has content-dependent uniqueness. Therefore, even if the data is specified by different users, the same first identifier is always specified for the data indicating the same specific state in the same game application.
In other words, when a particular state in the game is different, a different first identifier is always identified.
The first identifier is information specified by a first identifier identification unit (not shown). The first identifier specifying unit is the information that uniquely indicates a specific state with reproducibility in a predetermined application by a specific algorithm designed to be applied to a predetermined application (game application in the present embodiment). 1 Specify the identifier. Since the timing at which the first identifier is specified may be any timing, the first identifier specifying unit may additionally have a function of specifying and managing the first identifier. Further, the location of the first identifier specific unit is not particularly limited. That is, the first identifier specifying unit may be provided in the server 2 or may be provided in another device that cooperates with the server 2.
Here, in the present embodiment, the first identifier for distribution is not used as it is, but the one in which the first identifier is encoded in the URL character string, that is, the URL including the first identifier as a parameter is used. Be done.
That is, in the present embodiment, it means that the user browsing the data existing in the URL (a specific state of the game specified by the first identifier) with a Web browser or the like specifies the specific state. To do. Then, the period during which the access to the URL continues and the connection is established corresponds to the period during which the designation of the specific state continues.
Note that the use of a URL as the first identifier is an example, and is not limited to this. Another example will be described later.

As described above, in order for the user to specify a specific state and browse the data indicating the specific state, the user terminal 1 is operated and the first identifier corresponding to the specific state is used as a parameter. It is necessary to access the URL included in the data and browse the data at the location of the URL with a predetermined Web browser or the like. A temporary identifier that is valid only during the period when the designation of this specific state continues, that is, only during the period when the connection to the URL is established, in other words, only during the period when the data is viewed, is the second. Generated as an identifier.
This second identifier is generated as, for example, a character string of about 4 characters, is associated with the first identifier, and is presented to the user. As a result, the presented user or another user verbally transmitted from the user simply inputs the character string of about 4 characters in the running game or the like, and the corresponding data, that is, It is possible to acquire data indicating a specific state in which the designation is continued.

As described above, the number of types of data indicating a specific state of the game is enormous depending on the enormous combination of each component of the data (for example, a card in the case of a card game). A first identifier having content-dependent uniqueness is assigned to such a huge number of types of data.
That is, since the first identifier does not include information of a specific user (ID, personal information, etc. for identifying the user) and depends only on the content of the data, it is a specific state specified in the game. If they are the same, all users will access the same URL location.
Specifically, for example, in the case of a card game, a specific state of the game is a deck, but the same first identifier is always associated with the same deck configuration of different users. Therefore, it is not necessary to use the information for identifying the user for sharing the game data according to the present embodiment, and further, there is no need for the user to authenticate. Therefore, data can be shared without accessing the game server (server 2 in this embodiment) that manages user information. As described above, according to the information processing system of the present embodiment, for example, it can be easily realized by using a server other than the game server prepared by a third party who is not the game operator.

On the other hand, the second identifier is assigned to the access (connection) using the first identifier, not to the specific state of the game. Here, since the number of user terminals 1 that access at the same time among the plurality of user terminals 1 is overwhelmingly smaller than the number of types of specific states of the game, the second identifier has four characters as described above. It becomes feasible with a character string of about.
Then, by managing the second identifier and the first identifier in association with each other, as a result, a huge combination of data indicating a specific state of the game can be expressed as if it were an extremely short code (second identifier). Can be done.
This makes it possible to distribute and input data that has both the ability to express information and the ease of input. Also, when sharing data indicating a specific state of the game, user authentication is not required.

To further explain the card game as an example, among the data specified by the user in the card game, the data called "deck" is data indicating a combination of a plurality of cards used in the game, and specifies the game. It is the data which shows the state of.
By adopting the method of associating the first identifier and the second identifier of the present embodiment, the same deck can be transmitted and received extremely easily between different users and even between the same users but different devices. Will be possible.
Specifically, for example, the same user edits the deck registered on the smartphone (user terminal 2) with a personal computer (another user terminal 2) or the like without performing processing such as login, and edits it. Temporary sharing processing between devices, such as instantly reflecting on a smartphone, becomes feasible. Alternatively, it is possible to realize a temporary sharing process between users, in which the user immediately tells his / her deck to another user (friend) who is present.

Specifically, for example, it is assumed that a card game is adopted in which 40 cards with duplication are selected from 4,000 types of cards to form a deck.
In such a card game, the number of card combinations is enormous, and the deck (game state) composed of 40 cards has an enormous number of types of 4000 ^ 40 (= 1.2 × 10 ^ 144). Will exist.
Therefore, if these huge types of decks are simply given an identifier that uniquely identifies them, they are represented as a combination of 144 digits when using integers, and 64 characters including numbers, alphabets, and some symbols. But an 80-digit identifier is needed. Identifiers expressed as such long strings are difficult for people to memorize on the spot, and cannot be used, for example, for oral communication between users or when announcing a deck to an audience at an event venue. ..
On the other hand, in order to uniquely identify the deck specified by the user, an 80-digit identifier must be used. Therefore, in order to uniquely identify the deck specified by the user, this 80-digit identifier is adopted as the first identifier.
Then, it is linked with the first identifier so that the user can easily memorize it on the spot and use it, for example, when communicating verbally between users or when announcing the deck to the audience at the event venue. A second identifier of about 4 digits is used.
This second identifier is valid only while the user accesses using the first identifier and continues to browse the deck associated with the first identification. That is, the second identifier is assigned to the access by the user (viewing the deck associated with the first identifier).
Here, as described above, the number of users who play the game at the same time is overwhelmingly smaller than the number of specific states in the game. Therefore, as the second identifier, a very short identifier of about 4 digits can be adopted.

In addition, the user not only shares the deck with other users, but also uses the deck registered on the smartphone (first user terminal 1) as a personal computer (second user) without performing processing such as login. In some cases, it may be desired to temporarily share the deck between devices by editing it on the terminal 1) and immediately reflecting it on the smartphone.
Such sharing can be easily realized by dynamically associating the first identifier and the second identifier. That is, even if one user performs registration processing thousands of times for communication between devices, it is possible to realize scalability that the number of identifiers is not insufficient.

Further, the sharing of such game data will be described below with reference to FIG.
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an outline of a method of sharing deck information between users and dissimilar devices using an identifier that can be transmitted orally.

The information processing system of the present embodiment has a first identifier that can permanently identify a specific state specified by the user among various situations in the game, and an access to the server 2 using the first identifier (specific state). Performs scalable two-step identifier management that dynamically associates with a second identifier that can temporarily identify (continuing to specify). As a result, from the user's point of view, by using a second identifier with an extremely small amount of information of about 4 characters, a specific state specified by the user can be obtained from a huge number of combinations of various specific states in the game. It enables the transfer of data that can be identified and can reproduce the specific state between different types of devices and users.
Here, the scalable two-step identifier management means that the number of digits of the second identifier input by the user does not increase even when the number of specific states in the game becomes enormous, and other users or other users This means that the number of digits of the second identifier input by the user does not increase even when the number of data registration processes for transferring data to another device becomes enormous.

The upper part of FIG. 4 shows a specific state in the game. Specifically, in the example of FIG. 4, a card deck used in a card game is represented.
Shown in the middle of FIG. 4 is a first identifier that can permanently identify a specific state in the game. As shown in FIG. 4, the specific states in the game are different in the order from left to right in the figure, and the first identifier is assigned to each specific state in the different game.
What is shown in the lower part of FIG. 4 is the second identifier corresponding to the first identifier shown in the middle part. Each time there is an access using the first identifier (here, the URL including the first identifier is accessed), it is valid only for the session period (the period in which the user specifies a specific state corresponding to the first identifier). A second identifier is generated.

Further, the first identifier and the second identifier will be described in detail below.
The first identifier is a permanently unique identifier that can identify a particular state of a vast variety of games. Since the first identifier can permanently identify the data indicating a specific state in a specific game application at all times, via a paper medium such as a magazine or a network service such as SNS, Suitable for data distribution. Further, by expressing the first identifier as a URL, the first identifier can be distributed by using the mechanism for distributing the existing URL as it is.
The second identifier is represented by a character string as short as about 4 characters, and is suitable for use in the purpose of transferring data from a predetermined user terminal 1 to another user terminal 1 that is immediately executing a game. There is. In the present embodiment, this second identifier is dynamically generated each time there is an access using the first identifier.
That is, when the user terminal 1 accesses using the first identifier (for example, accessing a URL including the first identifier as described later), a specific state of the game corresponding to the first identifier (for example, deck information or the like). Will be viewable by the user. At this time, the server 2 assigns a second identifier to the session (designation of a specific state) by this access, and associates it with the first identifier corresponding to the specific state. When this second identifier is input to another user terminal 1, a specific state (deck) corresponding to the first identifier associated with the second identifier is acquired.

The user terminal 1 of FIG. 2 and the server 2 of FIG. 3 have a functional configuration as shown in FIG. 5 in order to execute the game data sharing control described with reference to FIG.
FIG. 5 is a functional block diagram showing an example of a functional configuration for executing game data sharing control among the functional configurations of the user terminal 1-1, the user terminal 1-2, and the server 2.
The user terminal 1-1 and the user terminal 1-2 are selected for convenience, and the functional block of the user terminal 1-1 and the functional block of the user terminal 1-2 shown in FIG. 5 are combined. Therefore, it functions in all user terminals 1.

As shown in FIG. 5, in the CPU 51 of the server 2, the reception unit 101, the condition monitoring unit 102, the second identifier generation unit 103, the association management unit 104, the display control unit 105, and the state reproduction unit 106 Works with.
Further, in the storage unit 58 of the server 2, the association management DB 111 is provided.

The reception unit 101 receives an access from the access unit 122 of the user terminal 1-1 using the first identifier uniquely associated with the specific state.
Here, the access method using the first identifier is not particularly limited as long as the first identifier is used, but in the present embodiment, the method of accessing the URL including the first identifier is adopted. Hereinafter, this method will be specifically described with reference to FIG.

FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of a method for specifying a first identifier and a URL generation method using the first identifier.
In the example of FIG. 6, a game is assumed in which a set of 40 cards selected from 10,000 types of cards is organized as a deck (a specific state of a designated game). In FIG. 6, one card is drawn as a box with a number inside. The numbers in the box (card) are the serial numbers of the cards, and of course they are not necessarily printed on the actual cards.
The serial number of the card shown in FIG. 6 is 64-bit encoded to be expressed as a combination of 64 characters of "0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijjklmNOPQRSTUVWXYZ-_", and each card can be embedded in a string by separating each card with a dot symbol ".". Can be specified as to represent the entire deck.
The character string shown below the box in FIG. 6 is a 64-bit coded character string of the contents of the deck. This is expanded into a URL and is shown below the arrow in FIG. In this embodiment, this URL can be shared and spread through SNS.

Returning to FIG. 5, the state monitoring unit 102 monitors whether or not the designation of a specific state is continued in the user terminal 1-1 that has accessed using the first identifier.
In this way, the designation of the specific state in the user terminal 1-1 is performed so that the server 2 can monitor it. That is, when the access using the first identifier is made from the user terminal 1-1, the state monitoring unit 102 starts the monitoring assuming that the specific state corresponding to the first identifier has been specified. ..
Here, as a method for determining the continuation of designation of a specific state, various methods using network communication technology can be adopted, and the method is not particularly limited. For example, while the network connection from the user terminal 1-1 is continuing, a method of determining that the designation of a specific state is continuing may be adopted. Here, the network connection means a broad concept including not only a physical communication connection but also a logical communication connection. Here, the logical communication connection means that even if the physical communication connection is temporarily disconnected, a specific terminal continuously accesses the server by using a technology such as a cookie or a token. It means that the server knows that. Further, for example, a method of periodically transmitting a ping request to the user terminal 1-1 and determining that the designation of a specific state is continued while the response is not interrupted or until a certain period of time elapses after the interruption is adopted. May be good. Further, for example, a ping message is periodically transmitted from the user terminal 1-1 to the server 2, and it is determined that the designation of a specific state is continued while the transmission is not interrupted or until a certain period of time elapses after the interruption. The method may be adopted.

The second identifier generation unit 103 generates the second identifier when the reception unit 101 receives an access using the first identifier by the user terminal 1-1.

The association management unit 104 is generated with the first identifier corresponding to the specific state during the period in which the designation of the specific state continues in the user terminal 1-1 or in the predetermined period after the period ends. When the association with the second identifier is managed and then the end of the designation of a specific state or the lapse of a predetermined period from the end is monitored on the user terminal 1-1, the first identifier and the second identifier Discard the association with.
Specifically, the association management unit 104 uses the second identifier generated by the second identifier generation unit 103 and the first identifier used in the access received when the second identifier is generated. By associating and registering in the management DB 111, the association between the first identifier and the second identifier is managed.
After that, the association management unit 104 manages the registration of the first identifier and the second identifier in association with each other when the end of the designation of the specific state or the lapse of a predetermined period from the end is monitored by the user terminal 1-1. By deleting from DB 111, the association between the first identifier and the second identifier is destroyed. That is, the second identifier becomes invalid.

The display control unit 105 executes control to display the second identifier generated by the second identifier generation unit 103 on the user terminal 1-1 that has accessed using the first identifier.

FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an implementation example of displaying the first identifier and the second identifier to be displayed on the user terminal 1.
As shown in the upper part of FIG. 7, when a deck is generated by a user who operates the user terminal 1-1, the configuration of the deck is displayed and the first identifier is displayed below the deck.
Access using this first identifier (access to the URL including the first identifier) is performed, and as a result, for example, the second identifier "tr0n" is generated in the server 2 as described above, and the first identifier and the first identifier are used. When associated, the second identifier "tr0n" is displayed in the lower right box displayed as [Code:] in FIG. 7 under the control of the display control unit 105 of the server 2.
This second identifier is used while the deck of FIG. 7 is designated by the user who operates the user terminal 1-1, that is, in this example, the screen of FIG. 7 is displayed on the user terminal 1-1 and viewed by the user. It is valid while it is being used.
Specifically, the circle at the bottom of FIG. 7 animates the remaining valid time of the second identifier. If the screen shown in FIG. 7 is continuously opened on the user terminal 1-1, the expiration date of the second identifier is automatically updated. It should be noted that the determination as to whether or not the screen is kept open is made by the determination of the continuation of the designation of the specific state described above.

For example, a user who operates a user terminal 1-1 inputs a second identifier "tr0n" in a website for performing a predetermined application program or deck building using a user terminal 1-2 which is a different device. be able to.
Alternatively, for example, another user whose second identifier is verbally transmitted from the user who operates the user terminal 1-1 uses the user terminal 1-2 operated by himself / herself to perform a predetermined application program or deck building. The second identifier "tr0n" can be entered in the website for doing this.

Returning to FIG. 5, when the second identifier is input by the user terminal 1-2 in this way, the second identifier is notified to the state reproduction unit 106 of the server.
Therefore, the state reproduction unit 106 executes control for making the user terminal 1-2 reproducible a specific state corresponding to the first identifier associated with the second identifier.
Specifically, for example, in the example of FIG. 7, the state reproduction unit 106 is the same as the deck information (same as the deck displayed in the screen information of FIG. 7) specified by the first identifier associated with the second identifier. Deck information) is reproduced and displayed on the user terminal 1-2.

As described above, as a key for sharing a specific state (deck configuration) of the game between users and devices, a short second identifier of about 4 digits such as "tr0n" can be used. As a result, it becomes extremely easy to exchange complicated information such as the structure of the deck.

The outline of the functional configuration of the user terminal 1-1 and the user terminal 1-2 will also be described.
First, as shown in FIG. 5, in the CPU 21 of the user terminal 1-1, the state designation release unit 121, the access unit 122, and the display control unit 123 function.

The state designation release unit 121 designates or cancels a specific state.
Specifically, when the user specifies a specific state (for example, when a deck is generated or selected) through the touch panel of the user terminal 1-1, the state designation canceling unit 121 accepts the designation and specifies the specified state. Is displayed on the touch panel via the display control unit 123 below, and is stored in the storage unit 29 of the user terminal 1-1 or the storage unit 58 of the server 2. Further, the user can read the previously specified state (for example, the generated deck) from, for example, the storage unit 29 or the storage unit 58, and newly specify the state. In this case, the state designation release unit 121 accepts the designation and displays the designated specific state on the touch panel via the display control unit 123 below.
When a specific state is specified, the access unit 122 below performs access using the first identifier corresponding to the specific state. As a result, the server 2 recognizes that the designation of a specific state has started.
After that, the state designation canceling unit 121 cancels the designation of the specific state in a form that can be recognized by the server 2.
The method of canceling (terminating) the designation of the specific state may be a method that can be recognized by the server 2, that is, a method that matches the method of determining the end of the designation of the specific state adopted by the server 2.
For example, when the method of determining that the designation of a specific state is completed by disconnecting the network connection is adopted on the server 2, the state designation canceling unit 121 specifies by disconnecting the network connection with the server 2. Cancel the specification of the state of.
Further, for example, a method of periodically transmitting a ping request to the user terminal 1-1 and determining that the designation of a specific state is completed when a certain period of time has elapsed since the response is interrupted is adopted on the server 2 side. In this case, the state designation canceling unit 121 executes a process of generating a response of the ping request when continuing to specify the specific state, and prohibiting the generation of the response when canceling the specific state.

When a specific state is specified, the access unit 122 executes control to perform access using the first identifier corresponding to the specific state.
When a specific state is specified as described above, the display control unit 123 displays the specific state (first identifier if necessary) on the touch panel, and the second identifier corresponding to the first identifier is displayed. When it is generated by the server 2 and notified, the control for displaying the second identifier on the touch panel is executed. That is, the display control unit 123 executes control for displaying the screen as shown in FIG. 7, for example, on the touch panel.

The outline of the functional configuration of the user terminal 1-1 has been described above. Next, the outline of the functional configuration of the user terminal 1-2 will be described.

In the CPU 21 of the user terminal 1-2, the second identifier input reception unit 131, the notification control execution unit 132, and the browsing control execution unit 133 function.

The second identifier input receiving unit 131 is a second identifier displayed on the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1-1, and is a user who operates the user terminal 1-2 (even if it is the same person as the user terminal 1-1). It accepts the input of the second identifier input by the touch panel or the like (sometimes it may be a stranger).
Here, assuming that the user of the user terminal 1-1 is User-A and the user of user terminal 1-2 is a stranger User-B, the first displayed on the user terminal 1-1 using FIG. The correspondence between the 2 identifier and the second identifier input to the user terminal 1-2 will be described.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing how User-A verbally notifies the second identifier and User-B shares information on the deck of User-A.
As shown in FIG. 8, User-A verbally notifies User-B of the second identifier "tr0n" in order to reproduce his own deck on the User-B side.
Here, as the second identifier "tr0n", when the user terminal 1-1 owned by User-A displays the deck (when a specific state is specified), the first identifier corresponding to the deck is used. As a result of the access, it is generated by the server 2 and displayed on the user terminal 1-1 (see FIG. 7).
The second identifier "tr0n" is activated and continues to be managed as long as the deck information is displayed on the screen of the user terminal 1-1 (that is, as long as the designation of a specific state continues).
User-B, who has verbally transmitted the second identifier "tr0n", inputs the second identifier "tr0n" using the touch panel or the like of the user terminal 1-2.

Returning to FIG. 5, the second identifier input receiving unit 131 of the user terminal 1-2 receives the input second identifier “tr0n”.
The notification control execution unit 132 executes a control for notifying the server 2 of the second identifier input by the second identifier input reception unit 131, for example, “tr0n” in the example of FIG.
Then, as described above, the state reproduction unit 106 of the server 2 has a specific state (in the example of FIG. 8) corresponding to the first identifier associated with the second identifier (“tr0n” in the example of FIG. 8). , The deck information shown in the figure) is controlled to be reproducible on the user terminal 1-2.
Under the control of the state reproduction unit 106 of the server 2, the browsing control execution unit 133 has a specific state ("tr0n" in the example of FIG. 8) corresponding to the first identifier associated with the second identifier (“tr0n” in the example of FIG. 8). In the example of FIG. 8, the control for causing the user (User-B in the example of FIG. 8) to browse the deck information shown in the figure is executed.

In this way, it is short that can be transmitted verbally without performing pairing processing between User-A and User-B (for example, becoming friends in the game) or pairing processing between both user terminals 1. It is possible to share deck information only by notifying the second identifier which is a character string (in this case, "tr0n").
That is, in the present embodiment, the abbreviated code is not assigned to the deck information, but the deck information itself is assigned a universal and permanent first identifier. Then, on condition of access using the permanent first identifier, a second identifier such as a short character string is generated, and the first identifier and the second identifier are associated with each other. As a result, from the user's point of view, it is possible to transmit the deck information as a result by simply transmitting the short character string or the like of the second identifier only by the verbal pronunciation.
Mathematically, for example, when 40 cards of 4,000 cards are combined, there are variations of 4,000 ^ 40 (= 1.2 × 10 ^ 144), and they are expressed only by a 4-character code. I can't.
However, the number of users who can connect to those variations at the same time has a certain upper limit, which is about several hundred thousand. Therefore, four-digit alphanumeric characters capable of expressing 1,679,616 combinations can be used. By expressing it as a second identifier, as a result, it becomes possible to transmit information on a deck of 40 cards arbitrarily selected from 4,000 cards.

The functional configurations of the user terminal 1-1, the user terminal 1-2, and the server 2 for realizing the game data sharing control have been described above.
Next, with reference to FIG. 9, the flow of game data sharing from the user side of the user terminal 1-1 and the user terminal 1-2 will be described.

FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a procedure for accessing the information of the user's deck.
The user terminal 1-1 and the user terminal 1-2 may be different terminals owned by the same user (for example, a smartphone and a personal computer), or may be different terminals owned by different users.
As the first procedure, the user operates the user terminal 1-1 to acquire the first identifier from the SNS, or if it is the first identifier of his / her own deck, reads it from the save data of the game and acquires it. Then, the user browses the deck (specific state in the game) uniquely associated with the first identifier through the Web browser or the game application displayed on the touch panel or the like of the user terminal 1-1.
As a second step, browsing an in-game deck (specific state) through a web browser or game app is valid only while the browsing activity continues (for example, while a network connection is established). Since the second identifier (here, "tr0n") is displayed on the touch panel or the like of the user terminal 1-1, the user visually recognizes the displayed second identifier (here, "tr0n").
As a third procedure, the user inputs the second identifier (here, "tr0n") displayed on the user terminal 1-1 using the touch panel or the like of the user terminal 1-2. Here, if the user is a stranger, the user (second user) who performs the third procedure is referred to by the user (first user) who is visually recognized in the second procedure, and the second identifier (here, "tr0n"). ) Needs to be communicated orally in advance.
As a fourth procedure, the user receives a specific state in the game of the first identifier corresponding to the second identifier (here, "tr0n") input by the server 2 in the third procedure in response to the third procedure. Reproduced on terminal 1-2. In this way, the user can access the deck information corresponding to the first identifier obtained in the first step.
When the browsing of the deck by the user terminal 1-1 is completed (when the instruction of the specific state in the game is canceled), the association between the second identifier (here, "tr0n") and the first identifier is discarded. Will be done.

Next, utilization of this embodiment on SNS will be described.
FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of sharing deck information on SNS.
As shown on the left side of FIG. 10, the URL including the first identifier and the deck (specific state in the game) information are displayed in the OGP (Open Graph Protocol) on the first SNS. The user of the first SNS can access the deck (specific state in the game) associated with the first identifier by clicking the URL on the OGP.
Further, as shown on the right side of FIG. 10, a rectangular button and a deck are displayed on the OGP on the second SNS. This rectangular button is associated with the URL including the first identifier, and the user of the second SNS clicks the rectangular button on the OGP to associate the deck with the first identifier (in-game). You can access certain states).
Such processing can be performed not only as the first identifier being the identifier inside the system of this embodiment but also as an identifier that can be embedded in the URL, and the information of the deck over a wide area is distributed through the SNS. This is because it is an identifier suitable for.
As a result, the Web page described according to the SNS OGP format can be thumbnailed as shown in FIG. 10 to spread the deck information.

Next, with reference to FIG. 11, the flow of the game data sharing process executed by the user terminal 1-1, the user terminal 1-2, and the server 2 having the functional configuration as shown in FIG. 5 will be described.
FIG. 11 is an arrow chart showing the flow of game data sharing processing of the user terminal 1-1, the user terminal 1-2, and the server 2.

In step S1, the state designation release unit 121 of the user terminal 1-1 designates a specific state.
In step S2, the access unit 122 of the user terminal 1-1 performs access using the first identifier corresponding to the specific state.

In step S20, the reception unit 101 of the server 2 receives the access from the user terminal 1-1 using the first identifier.
In step S21, the condition monitoring unit 102 of the server 2 recognizes the first identifier based on the access in step S20.
In step S22, the second identifier generation unit 103 of the server 2 generates the second identifier.
In step S23, the association management unit 104 of the server 2 associates the first identifier recognized in step S21 with the second identifier generated in step S22.
In step S24, the display control unit 105 of the server 2 notifies the user terminal 1-1 of the second identifier generated in step S22.

In step S3, the display control unit 123 of the user terminal 1-1 causes the touch panel to display the second identifier notified from the server 2 in step S24.
Here, the second identifier displayed on the touch panel of the user terminal 1-1 is transmitted to the user who operates the user terminal 1-2.
Here, if the user of the user terminal 1-1 and the user terminal 1-2 is the same person, "transmitted" means to be memorized in one's own head. When the users of the user terminal 1-1 and the user terminal 1-2 are different people, "transmitted" means that they are transmitted orally.

In step S31, the second identifier input receiving unit 131 of the user terminal 1-2 accepts the input of the second identifier.
In step S32, the notification control execution unit 132 of the user terminal 1-2 notifies the server 2 of the second identifier received in step S31.

In step S25, the state reproduction unit 106 of the server 2 recognizes the second identifier notified in step S32.
In step S26, the state reproduction unit 106 recognizes the first identifier corresponding to the second identifier recognized in step S25.
In step S27, the state reproduction unit 106 executes control to reproduce the specific state corresponding to the first identifier recognized in step S26 on the user terminal 1-2.
That is, in step S33, the browsing control execution unit 133 of the user terminal 1-2 receives the control in step S27 and executes the control to make the user of the user terminal 1-2 browse the specific state.

In step S4, when the state designation release unit 121 of the user terminal 1-1 releases a specific state, in step S28, the association management unit 104 of the server 2 has a first identifier and a second identifier. Discard the association with.

Next, an implementation example in which information on a plurality of decks (that is, a plurality of specific states) is displayed in one Web page in the SNS or the like of the present embodiment will be described.

For example, in an online form displayed in a Web page, a Web bulletin board system, an SNS, or the like, information on a plurality of decks can be posted in the Web page identified by one URL.
When information on multiple decks is included in one Web page, it is difficult to identify which of the multiple decks information is specified (displayed) only from the URL of the Web page. is there. Therefore, for example, by the Javascript (registered trademark) code associated with each display of the information of a plurality of decks, it is specified which deck of the information of the plurality of decks the user specifies (displays). Then, the code generated by the information of the specified deck is transmitted to the server as the first identification to associate with the second identifier, and the information of the specified deck and the second identifier are displayed in association with each other. The method is proposed.

FIG. 12 is a diagram showing an implementation example when information P of a plurality of decks is displayed on the forum, bulletin board, and SNS in the present embodiment.
FIG. 12A is a diagram showing an example of information P of a plurality of decks to be displayed in a forum, a bulletin board, and an SNS.
FIG. 12B is a diagram showing a part of the deck information P displayed on the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1.
The information P of the deck of FIG. 12 includes a predetermined deck (a specific state of the game) and a first identifier (URL including the first identifier) corresponding to the deck. In the present embodiment, the information P of the four decks selected from the information P of the plurality of decks of FIG. 12A is displayed in each of the display areas P1 to P4 of the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1. Will be done.
That is, as shown in FIG. 12A, the information Ps of the plurality of decks are arranged side by side in the vertical direction, and the information Ps of the four decks are selected from among them, and the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1 is selected. Display area is displayed in each of the areas P1 to P4.
For example, when the range RG1 of FIG. 12A is selected, the information P of the four decks included in the range RG1 is displayed in each of the display areas P1 to P4 of the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1. Will be done.
Here, when the user wants to select the range RG2 in FIG. 12A, the display unit 27 (touch panel) of the user terminal 1 may be scrolled.
When the range RG2 of FIG. 12A is selected by scrolling, the information P of the four decks included in the range RG2 is displayed in the display areas P1 to P4 of the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1. Scroll.
That is, the scroll operation also changes the deck information P displayed in each of the display areas P1 to P4 of the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1.

An implementation example will be described below.
As shown in FIG. 12A, in online forms, bulletin boards, and SNSs where deck information P can be shared, deck information P between users is arranged vertically long in one page. In such a forum, a large amount of deck information P will be posted in a page identified by one URL, so a conventional method such as a shortened URL cannot be used.
In the present embodiment, in order to manage the expiration date of the second identifier according to whether or not the user is browsing the information (whether or not the user is instructing a specific state of the game), for example, it is specified by one URL. It can also be applied when the information P of a plurality of decks is posted in one Web page.

Specifically, by using the function of the Web browser installed on the user terminal 1-1 shown in FIG. 5, the range currently displayed on the user terminal 1-1 side (in the example of FIG. 12, the display range). The HTML element in RG1, RG2) can be extracted.
At this time, the user terminal 1-1 accesses the server 2 and transmits the deck information P included in the HTML element displayed by the display control unit 123 to the reception unit 101. Here, the deck information P is information corresponding to the first identifier, and in the present embodiment, the information obtained by converting the first identifier into a format applicable to the HTML element (a format that can be embedded in HTML). Is. The information P of the deck as the first identifier is the information specified by the first identifier specifying unit (not shown), but in the present embodiment, a plurality of first identifiers (deck information P) are contained in the HTML element of the Web page. Is included in.
When the server 2 accepts the access, the second identifier generation unit 103 generates the second identifier, and the association management unit 104 associates the first identifier with the second identifier.
Then, the user terminal 1-1 acquires the second identifier of the deck information P from the server 2 and displays it on the screen.

In addition, the Web browser uses the amount of scrolling the screen by the user as the scrollTop, which is the vertical scrolling amount (distance between the upper left of the window and the upper part of the page), and the scrolling amount in the right direction (the upper left of the window and the page). It has a function to acquire as scrollLeft which is the distance at the left end).
By using this function, the condition monitoring unit 102 shown in FIG. 5 periodically confirms the change in this value, so that which range of FIG. 12A is displayed (for example, the range RG1). Whether it is the range RG2 or not) can be detected. When the condition monitoring unit 102 detects that the display range has been changed, it determines whether or not the information P of the deck within the display range is displayed on the screen, and determines whether or not the information P of the deck within the display range is displayed on the screen. Information P (or a first identifier generated from information P of a deck) is transmitted to server 2, a second identifier corresponding to information P of the deck is acquired from server 2, and is displayed in association with information P of the deck. can do.
Here, the Web browser has a function as a display information extraction unit (not shown) defined by, for example, Javascript (registered trademark). As described above, the display information extraction unit is a means for extracting information P of the deck within a predetermined display range from the HTML element indicating the content displayed on the user terminal 1-1, and the display at this time. The size (or width) of the range (that is, the extraction range) is not particularly limited and can be appropriately designed. It is preferable that the size of the display range is designed to match the display screen of the user terminal 1-1 as in the range RG1 in FIG. 12, but this is not limited in the practice of the present invention. Further, for example, the entire Web page specified by a certain URL may be regarded as a display range, and the display information extraction unit may extract the deck information P using all the HTML elements included in the Web page as the extraction range. ..
That is, for example, when the information P of a plurality of decks included in the display range of FIG. 12A is extracted by the display information extraction unit, the server 2 has a plurality of orders corresponding to the information P of each deck. 1 An identifier is acquired, and each of the acquired first identifiers is associated with a second identifier. Then, the second identifier corresponding to the information P of each deck is displayed on the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1-1.
Further, for example, even when the information P of a plurality of decks is extracted from the display range by the display information extraction unit, the server 2 corresponds to the information P of the deck closest to the center in the selection range. It is also possible to display only the two identifiers on the display unit 27 of the user terminal 1-1.
In other words, after the change in the display range is detected, the deck information P is extracted from the HTML elements within the selected range by the display information extraction unit, so that the specific state of the game corresponding to the deck information P is specified. Is specified, and access is made using the first identifier corresponding to the specific state.

The description of reproducing a specific state of the game on the user terminal 1-2 is the same as the above description, and is omitted here.

Further, the server 2 may invalidate the second identifier corresponding to the information P of the deck outside the display range.
That is, when the state monitoring unit 102 shown in FIG. 5 detects that the display range has been changed, the state monitoring unit 102 cooperates with the association management unit 104 and the association management DB 111 to display the information P of the deck outside the display range. The association between the corresponding first identifier and the second identifier associated with the first identifier is released, the information is discarded from the association management DB 111, and the management is completed. However, the abandonment of the association may be performed when the correspondence is out of the display range, or may be performed after a predetermined period of time has elapsed from the departure from the display range.

Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and modifications, improvements, and the like within the range in which the object of the present invention can be achieved are included in the present invention. Is.

For example, the above-described embodiment is intended for sharing card game data.
However, the present invention is not particularly limited to this, and can be generally applied to data sharing between devices. That is, it is not limited to games, and can be widely applied to data sharing between users and devices.

Further, for example, in the above-described embodiment, for convenience of explanation, the first identifier included in the URL is used as an example, but the first identifier is not particularly limited to this.
That is, as described above, the first identifier may be a permanently unique identifier that can identify a huge specific state of data. Therefore, for example, it can be applied to various identifiers such as a one-dimensional code and a two-dimensional code.

Further, for example, in the above-described embodiment, for convenience of explanation, the second identifier uses a four-digit number or an uppercase / lowercase alphabet as an example, but is not particularly limited thereto.
That is, as described above, the second identifier may be an identifier having a temporary uniqueness that can identify the browsing activity of the user from the simultaneous access session when the user browses the data. Therefore, for example, it does not have to be four digits, and may be a permanent abbreviated identifier using a printed matter or the like by combining with a symbol. Specifically, when it starts with a press symbol such as "+ 5t7", it may be an identifier that is not invalidated.

Further, for example, in the above-described embodiment, the game processing has been used for convenience of explanation, but the present invention is not particularly limited to this, and any processing that is reproducible and handles a specific state arbitrarily specified by the user. It's enough.

Further, for example, the functional configuration of FIG. 5 is merely an example and is not particularly limited. That is, it suffices if the information processing apparatus is provided with a function capable of executing the above-mentioned series of processes as a whole, and what kind of functional block is used to realize this function is not particularly limited to the example of FIG. Further, the location of the functional block is not particularly limited to FIG. 5, and may be arbitrary. For example, the functional block of the server 2 may be transferred to the user terminal 1 or the like, or conversely, the functional block of the user terminal 1 may be transferred to the server 2 or the like.
Further, one functional block may be configured by a single piece of hardware, a single piece of software, or a combination thereof.

When the processing of each functional block is executed by software, the programs constituting the software are installed on a computer or the like from a network or a recording medium.
The computer may be a computer embedded in dedicated hardware. Further, the computer may be a computer capable of executing various functions by installing various programs, for example, a general-purpose smartphone or a personal computer in addition to a server.

The recording medium containing such a program is not only composed of a removable medium (not shown) distributed separately from the device main body in order to provide the program to the user, but also is preliminarily incorporated in the device main body to the user. It is composed of the provided recording media and the like.

In the present specification, the steps for describing a program recorded on a recording medium are not necessarily processed in chronological order, but also in parallel or individually, even if they are not necessarily processed in chronological order. It also includes the processing to be executed.
Further, in the present specification, the term of the system shall mean an overall device composed of a plurality of devices, a plurality of means, and the like.

In other words, the information processing program to which the present invention is applied can take various embodiments having the following configurations, including the information processing system as the embodiment of FIG. 5 described above.
That is, the information processing program to which the present invention is applied is
To a server that communicates with multiple terminals that are reproducible and can display a specific state arbitrarily specified by the user based on the specification.
A reception step (for example, a step executed by the reception unit 101 of FIG. 5) for receiving access from the first terminal among the plurality of terminals using the first identifier uniquely associated with the specific state.
A monitoring step (for example, a step executed by the state monitoring unit 102 in FIG. 5) for monitoring whether or not the specific state is continuously specified in the first terminal that has been accessed using the first identifier. ,
When the access using the first identifier by the first terminal is received, the generation step of generating the second identifier (for example, the step executed by the second identifier generation unit 103 of FIG. 5) and
A display control step for executing control to display the generated second identifier on the first terminal (for example, a step executed by the display control unit 105 in FIG. 5) and
During the period in which the designation of the specific state continues in the first terminal or the predetermined period after the end of the period, the first identifier corresponding to the specific state and the generated second identifier After that, when the end of the designation of the specific state or the lapse of a predetermined period from the end is monitored in the first terminal, the association between the first identifier and the second identifier is performed. A management step to be discarded (for example, a step executed by the association management unit 104 in FIG. 5) and
When the second identifier is notified from the second terminal among the plurality of terminals while the management is being continued in the management step, it corresponds to the first identifier associated with the second identifier. A state reproduction step (for example, a step executed by the state reproduction unit 106 of FIG. 5) for executing control for enabling the specific state to be reproduced by the second terminal, and
A program that executes control processing including.

In this way, a technique for instantly sharing data indicating a specific state between users and between devices is established.
That is, two stages in which the first identifier used when distributing data on various media and the second identifier used when reading data into an application are made independent, and the correspondence between these two identifiers is dynamically managed. By adopting the identifier management method, data distribution / input that has both the ability to express information and the ease of input is realized.
Here, the number of users browsing the data is overwhelmingly smaller than the number of specific states in the data.
Therefore, by dynamically associating the first identifier that identifies a specific state in the data with the second identifier that identifies the act of browsing a specific state, one user can communicate between devices. Even if the registration process is performed thousands of times, the scalability is realized so that the number of identifiers is not insufficient.
As a result, the present invention performs a temporary sharing process between devices, in which data registered on a device is edited on a different device and immediately reflected on the device without performing a process such as login. It can be realized.

Further, the reception step can include a step of accepting an access by a URL including the first identifier as an element as an access using the first identifier.
As a result, the mechanism for distributing the existing URL via a paper medium such as a magazine or a network service such as SNS can be used as it is.

Further, the generation step may include, as the second identifier, a step of generating an identifier having a smaller amount of information than the first identifier.
As a result, the generated second identifier becomes short and simple, so that it can be communicated verbally between users, and data can be shared with an unspecified number of users or data can be immediately sent to strangers on the spot. Can be shared.
Further, even when the number of specific states in the data becomes enormous, the number of identifiers input by the user does not increase, and the number of data registration processes for transferring the data to a different user or a different device is performed. The number of identifiers entered by the user does not increase even when the number of identifiers becomes enormous.
