<Overview>
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an example of the system configuration of an information processing system 1 according to the first embodiment. The information processing system 1 includes an information processing server 10 and a plurality of terminals 20 (terminal 20A, terminal 20B, terminal 20C). Information processing server 10 and terminal 20 are connected via network 2 . Network 2 includes a wired network and a wireless network.

The terminal 20 is a smart phone, a tablet terminal, a PC (Personal Computer), a mobile phone, a game console, a touch pad, an electronic book reader, a wearable terminal, or the like.

The information processing server 10 provides a user of the terminal 20 with SNS (Social Network Service). A user of the terminal 20 can receive SNS services from the information processing server 10 by installing an SNS application on the terminal 20 and connecting to the information processing server 10 .

In addition, although the display control method in the SNS service will be mainly described in the following embodiments, it is applicable to the display control method for displaying content on the terminal 20 of the user. For example, the present invention can be applied to content display control methods on various home pages on the Internet.

The terminal 20 may use a web browser or the like to connect to the information processing server 10 and receive the SNS service.

The information processing server 10 provides, for example, a timeline service of an SNS service.

In the timeline service, the information processing server 10 provides content such as texts, photos, and videos posted on SNS by users and users who have relationships with the users on SNSs, in chronological order, on the terminals of the users. 20 is a service to be displayed. The information processing server 10 displays an advertisement (hereinafter referred to as advertisement content) provided by an advertiser between contents posted by users of the SNS (hereinafter referred to as user content).

The information processing server 10 distributes a plurality of user contents and advertisement contents to the terminals 20 . The terminal 20 displays the user content and the advertisement content on the screen of the terminal 20 in the display order instructed by the information processing server 10 . Due to screen size restrictions, the terminal 20 cannot display all the distributed contents on the screen at the same time.

The terminal 20 accepts an operation from the user, for example, an operation of scrolling to the screen, and changes displayed content.

For example, when M pieces of content (user content and advertisement content) are distributed from the information processing server 10 to the terminal 20, the terminal 20 displays the 1st to Nth pieces of content (M and N are natural numbers). , N<M). When the terminal 20 receives an instruction from the user to display the N-th and subsequent contents by scrolling in the first direction (for example, downward direction of the screen), the terminal 20 displays the 2nd to N+1th contents or the 3rd to N+2th contents. to display content such as In this way, the terminal 20 displays new content by hiding (deleting) part of the content displayed on the screen from the screen.

SNS operators and advertisers who provide advertising content desire to allow users to view content that attracts a high degree of attention from other users and advertising content for a predetermined period of time or longer. For example, an advertiser desires to increase advertising effectiveness by allowing users to view advertising content for a predetermined period of time or longer.

The terminal 20 according to the present embodiment has a display area 50 (main display area 50A) that displays content on the screen according to an instruction from the information processing server 10, and a display area 50 (main display area 50A) that displays content that the user of the terminal 20 wants to view. sub-display area 50B).

The terminal 20 measures and stores the time each content is displayed on the screen. Also, when the content is a moving image, the terminal 20 measures and stores the playback time of the moving image content. In addition, these measured times may be expressed as browsing time.

The terminal 20 determines that the content has been viewed when the viewing time of the content exceeds a predetermined time provided for each content.

When the viewing time of the content exceeds a predetermined time, the content is hidden from the screen in response to the terminal 20 receiving an instruction from the user to display new content by scrolling in the first direction. (disappears from the screen).

On the other hand, if the viewing time of the content does not exceed the predetermined time, the terminal 20 receives an instruction from the user to display new content by scrolling in the first direction. It is displayed in area 50B.

The sub-display area 50B is a display area in which content or the like is displayed fixedly even when the terminal 20 receives a scroll operation or the like for changing the display of the content on the screen from the user. The same content is fixedly displayed in the sub-display area 50B for a predetermined period. On the other hand, when the main display area 50A receives an operation to change the display of the content on the screen from the user, the displayed content is changed. That is, the main display area 50A is a display area in which contents and the like are dynamically displayed.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing an example (Part 1) of the display screen of the terminal 20 of the user of the information processing system 1 according to the first embodiment.

(A) of FIG. 2 shows how the contents distributed from the information processing server 10 are displayed in the main display area 50A according to the order instructed by the information processing server 10 . The first to fourth contents (content 40A, content 40B, content 40C, and content 40D) are displayed in the main display area 50A.

(B) of FIG. 2 accepts an operation of scrolling in the first direction from the user on the screen of the terminal 20, and displays third to fifth contents (content 40C, content 40D, content 40E) in the main display area 50A. is displayed. The content 40A is hidden from the screen. On the other hand, the content 40B is displayed in the sub-display area 50B because it has not been viewed by the user for the predetermined viewing time set for the content 40B. Since the display space of the sub-display area 50B is limited, the content 40B is reduced and displayed as the content 60B. For example, content 60B is displayed as a content thumbnail.

The sub-display area 50B may be provided in advance on the screen, or the main display area 50A may be reduced in response to the appearance of the content displayed in the sub-display area 50B. may be provided.

(C) of FIG. 2 shows that the screen of the terminal 20 receives the user's scrolling operation in the first direction, and the main display area 50A displays the fourth to seventh contents (content 40D, content 40E, content 40F, content 40G) is displayed. The content 40C is displayed in the sub-display area 50B because it has not been viewed by the user for a predetermined viewing time set for the content 40C. Similar to content 40B, content 40C is reduced and displayed as content 60C.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example (part 2) of the display screen of the terminal 20 of the user of the information processing system 1 according to the first embodiment.

The content displayed in the sub-display area 50B is enlarged and displayed when the terminal 20 accepts the user's selection.

(A) of FIG. 3 shows how the terminal 20 accepts the user's selection of the content 60C displayed in the sub-display area 50B in (3) of FIG.

When selection of the content 60C displayed in a reduced size is accepted, the content 60C is enlarged and displayed on the screen of the terminal 20 as content 70C. Here, the description will proceed assuming that the content 70C is moving image content.

Upon receiving an operation on content 70C, terminal 20 performs an operation corresponding to the operation. For example, when the reproduction menu 71 of the content 70C is selected, the terminal 20 starts reproducing the content. When the install link 72 for the content 70C is selected, the terminal 20 connects to a site on the Internet for installing the application for the content 70C or launches an application for installing the application for the content 70C. When the share menu 73 of the content 70C is selected, the terminal 20 instructs the information processing server 10 to notify the user related to the user of the terminal 20 on the SNS service that the content 70C has been browsed. . In addition, a user who is related on the SNS service is, for example, a user who is set as a friend.

When the video is played for a predetermined time or longer, when the install link 72 is selected, or when the share menu 73 is selected, the terminal 20 determines that the content 70C has been viewed, and the content 70C is displayed from the sub-display area 50B. Hide content 60C, which is a reduced version of .

(B) of FIG. 3 shows a state in which the content 60C is hidden from the sub-display area 50B.

As described above, when it is determined that the content has not been browsed, the content is reduced and displayed in the sub-display area 50B. Since the space of the sub-display area 50B is also limited, the terminal 20 may hide the content displayed in the sub-display area 50B for a predetermined period of time or longer. In addition, when displaying new content in the sub-display area 50B, if there is no space in the sub-display area 50B, the terminal 20 may hide the content that was displayed the oldest in the sub-display area 50B. Alternatively, the size of each of the contents displayed in the sub-display area 50B may be reduced and new contents may be displayed in the sub-display area 50B.

In the above-described embodiment, the case where the content is fixedly displayed in the sub-display area 50B has been described. It may be displayed in the main display area 50A depending on the situation.

For example, a scroll operation in the second direction opposite to the first direction is received on the screen of the terminal 20, and the content 40B and the content displayed before and after the content 60C displayed in the sub display area are displayed. 40D is displayed on the screen again, the content 60C is hidden from the sub-display area 50B, and the content 40C is displayed between the content 40B and the content 40D in the same manner as it was previously displayed. may be displayed.

In this case, the user feels as if the content 60C displayed in the sub-display area 50B returns to the main display area 50A and is displayed as the content 40C.

Note that the display order of the contents is changed at any timing according to an instruction from the information processing server 10 . For example, the display order of the user content and the advertisement content may be changed dynamically each time the screen of the terminal 20 is scrolled.

In the above description, the terminal 20 executes the determination of display in the sub-display area 50B, but the information processing server 10 may execute the determination. In this case, the terminal 20 stores the browsing time of each content and reports it to the information processing server 10 . The information processing server 10 determines whether or not the reported browsing time of the content exceeds a predetermined browsing time set for each content.

The terminal 20 displays a dividing line between the main display area 50A and the sub-display area 50B so that the user can recognize the sub-display area 50B. You may perform processing, such as setting a different gradation to .

It is of course possible to accept an operation other than scrolling to change the displayed content.

Specifically, each function of the information processing server 10 cooperates as follows. The communication unit 110 distributes content to the terminal 20 . In addition, the communication unit 110 notifies the terminal 20 of a viewing determination method, which is a condition for determining whether content is being viewed. When it is determined that the content has not been browsed, the control unit 120 controls the terminal 20 to display the content in a different display form than when the content was previously displayed.

The communication unit 110 distributes content to the terminal 20 based on instructions from the control unit 120 . When distributing the content, the display order of the content, the method of determining whether the content has been viewed (browsing determination method), and the setting information of the display area 50 are also notified.

The communication unit 110 receives the content display state from the terminal 20 and notifies the information storage unit 130 of it.

The control unit 120 refers to the user attribute storage table 130A, the content distribution state table 130B, and the distribution target content table 130D stored in the information storage unit 130, and displays user content and advertisement content to be displayed on the user's terminal 20. determine the order. Information elements stored in the user attribute storage table 130A, the content distribution state table 130B, and the distribution target content table 130D will be described later.

Control unit 120 instructs terminal 20 via communication unit 110 to display the content in the determined display order. The control unit 120 causes the terminal 20 to display the user content in chronological order, and inserts and displays the advertisement content between the user content. This is because the user's attention can be attracted to the advertisement content by dynamically inserting the advertisement content between the user contents. As for the user content, the displayed content is dynamically changed in chronological order due to posts from the terminal 20 of the user and the terminals 20 of other users. User content may also be referred to as user information.

The control unit 120 notifies the terminal 20 via the communication unit 110 of the “viewing determination method”, which is an information element for determining whether each content has been viewed.

The control unit 120 notifies the terminal 20 of the “display method”, which is an information element for the terminal 20 to determine the display area 50 of each content, via the communication unit 110 . In addition, control unit 120 transmits “main display area setting information” and “sub display area setting information”, which are information regarding the formation of main display area 50A and sub display area 50B, to terminal 20 via communication unit 110. to notify.

Control unit 120 determines advertisement content to be distributed to the user based on user attributes stored in user attribute storage table 130A. Also, the control unit 120 determines user content to be distributed to the user based on the friend information. Of course, even if no information is entered in the user attribute storage table 130A, the control unit 120 can determine content to be distributed to the user. For example, the control unit 120 may select content to be distributed according to default settings, or may select content at random.

FIG. 7B is a diagram showing an example of the content distribution state table 130B.

The content distribution state table 130B stores the display order, content ID, content type, display state, and viewing state for each content distributed to the terminal 20 .

The display order is an information element that indicates the order in which content is displayed on the terminal 20 from the information processing server 10 . The order in which the content is displayed is determined by the control unit 120 based on the user attribute storage table 130A and the distribution target content table 130D.

A content ID is an identifier for specifying content distributed to the terminal 20 .

The content type is an information element representing the type of content. For example, there are user contributions, video advertisements, still image advertisements, and the like. There are three types of user contributions: text submission (user text submission), still image submission (user still image submission), video submission (user video submission), and illustration submission (user illustration submission). be.

The display state is an information element that indicates the display state of content on the terminal 20 . "Displayed" indicates that the content has been displayed on the terminal 20 and is not currently being displayed. "Displaying in main display area" indicates that the content is being displayed in main display area 50A. "Displaying sub-display area" indicates that the sub-display area 50B is being displayed. The display state may be stored together with the display time. For example, in this case, the display start time is stored in the display state column of the content being displayed.

The display count is an information element that indicates the number of times the content has been displayed on the terminal 20 . The viewing state is an information element representing the viewing state of the content. The browsing status is set to "unbrowsed", "browsing", or "browsed".

The browsing state is changed according to the browsing state of each content.

(C) of FIG. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the display area setting table 130C. The display area setting table 130C is a table set for each user's terminal 20, and includes "main display area setting information" which is information regarding the main display area 50A and "sub display area setting information" which is information regarding the sub display area 50B. ” is stored.

In the "main display area setting information" and "sub-display area setting information", the size of each display area 50 (upper limit size to lower limit size), the number of contents to be displayed (upper limit), and the content indicating the display size of each content The display size (upper limit size to lower limit size) is stored.

FIG. 8 is a diagram showing an example of the distribution target content table 130D according to the first embodiment.

The distribution target content table 130D stores a content ID, content type, browsing determination method, display method, distribution target, distribution period, and number of distributions (upper limit) for each content.

The viewing determination method is an information element used by the terminal 20 to determine whether or not the content has been viewed. In the browsing judgment method, a specific browsing judgment method is set for each content.

For example, when the viewing determination method is set to “reproduce video for 15 seconds or longer”, the terminal 20 determines that the content has been viewed when the video content is played back for 15 seconds or longer, and determines that the content has been viewed. to "viewed".

For example, when the viewing determination method is set to "play video of 50% or more", the terminal 20 determines that the content has been viewed when 50% or more of the length of the entire video content is played back on the terminal 20. , change the viewing status of the content to "viewed".

For example, when the browsing determination method is set to "install link selection", when the terminal 20 accepts the selection of the installation link 72 of the application of the content, the terminal 20 determines that the content has been browsed, and the content is browsed. Change the status to "viewed".

For example, when the terminal 20 accepts the selection of the share menu 73 of the content when it is set to "select share menu", the terminal 20 determines that the content has been viewed, and sets the content viewing state to "viewed". change to

For example, when the browsing determination method is set to "display for 2 seconds or longer", when the content is displayed on the terminal 20 for 2 seconds or longer, the terminal 20 determines that the content has been browsed, and sets the browsing state of the content to " Change to "viewed".

For example, when the browsing determination method is set to "display N times" (N is a natural number), when the content is displayed N times or more on the terminal 20, the terminal 20 determines that the content has been browsed, and the content is displayed. Change the viewing status to "viewed". This is because there is a high possibility that the user of the terminal 20 has recognized the content when the content is displayed on the terminal 20 a predetermined number of times or more.

It goes without saying that the browsing judgment method may be a combination of the browsing judgment methods described above.

Also, it may be determined whether or not the content has been viewed based on the situation when the content is displayed multiple times. For example, when the content is displayed multiple times in 24 hours, it may be determined that the content has been viewed when the total display time of the content is equal to or longer than a predetermined time.

The display method is an information element for instructing the display method of the content. The display method is set as "main display area and sub-display area", "main display area", or the like. The content set as "main display area and sub-display area" is displayed in the main display area 50A, and is displayed in the sub-display area 50B when not browsed in the main display area. The content set as "main display area" is displayed only in the main display area 50A. When the terminal 20 receives an operation such as scrolling to display other content from the user, the content displayed only in the main display area 50A is hidden from the main display area 50A.

A distribution target is an information element for specifying a distribution target of content. As distribution targets, "men in their twenties", "Yokohama", "posting destination groups", "timeline viewers of user D", and the like are set. A plurality of setting values may be input to the distribution target. For example, "man in his twenties" and "Yokohama" may be input.

The control unit 120 stores the set values of “distribution target” in the distribution target content table 130D, such as “male in twenties” and “Yokohama”, and the user attribute storage table 130A with “date of birth”, “sex”, and Advertisement content to be distributed to the terminal 20 is determined using information such as “residential area”.
