An embodiment of the present invention will be described below.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an information processing system according to one embodiment.

The information processing system 1 is, for example, a system that is used when making reservations for facilities such as stores (specific examples include restaurants and beauty salons). The information processing system 1 has, for example, a configuration in which a server 10 and a terminal device 20 are connected via a network. The server 10 includes a storage unit 11 , a search condition reception unit 12 , an extraction unit 13 and a generation unit 14 . The search condition receiving unit 12 forms part of the communication device (communication unit) of the server 10 . The extraction unit 13 and the generation unit 14 are implemented as one function of the processing device (control unit) of the server 10 .

The storage unit 11 stores a plurality of search targets. The storage unit 11 stores, for example, information about stores that accept reservations. The information about the store includes, for example, the location (area) of the store, the genre of food offered by the store, the menu, the course meal, and the price.

The search condition receiving unit 12 receives the first search condition from the terminal device 20 of the user. The terminal device 20 is, for example, a terminal used by a user such as a smart phone, a tablet terminal, or a personal computer. The first search condition is, for example, a condition for extracting a plurality of stores as reservation candidates from among many stores. The first search condition is, for example, the location (area) of the store. In addition, the first search condition may be, for example, food genres such as Japanese food, Chinese food, or Western food, menus, course meals, prices, number of reservations, etc. provided by the store. Preferably, the first search condition includes at least area information. The area information is, for example, information about the area where the store is located. As the first search condition, one or a plurality of conditions are entered at once. The terminal device 20 displays a web page provided by the server 10 on the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20, for example. When the first search condition is input to the web page based on the user's operation, the terminal device 20 transmits the input first search condition to the server 10 . The search condition receiving unit 12 receives the first search condition.

The extraction unit 13 extracts search results from search targets based on the first search condition. The extraction unit 13 extracts from the storage unit 11 information about stores that match the first search condition received by the search condition reception unit 12 . As an example, when the first search condition specifies “Yurakucho” as the area, the extracting unit 13 extracts from the storage unit 11 information about a plurality of shops in the Yurakucho area.

The generation unit 14 generates a list display of the extracted search results. The generation unit 14 generates, for example, a web page showing a list of information about the plurality of extracted stores, and causes the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 to display the web page.

The search condition receiving unit 12 of the information processing system 1 as described above receives the second search condition from the user's terminal device 20 in any one of the displayed search results. That is, when the terminal device 20 displays information (list display) about a plurality of stores on the display unit 21, for example, one store is selected from the list display of the plurality of stores based on the user's operation. , an input field for inputting the second search condition is displayed. Preferably, the second search condition includes at least date and time information. If the second search condition includes at least date and time information, it becomes possible to make a reservation for the store included in the search result. Also, the second search condition may include the number of reservations. The information processing system 1 is configured so that the first search condition and the second search condition may have the same search item, and an item not specified by the first search condition can be specified by the second search condition. You may That is, the second search condition is, for example, a reservation condition for taking a reservation for a store, and specifically, the reservation date and time or the number of reservations for the store to be reserved. One or more conditions are input as the second search condition. The input fields are included in the web page displayed on the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20, for example. The input fields are displayed on the display unit 21 based on the processing of the terminal device 20 or the processing of the server 10, for example.

When the second search condition is input based on the user's operation, the terminal device 20 transmits the second search condition to the server 10 . The search condition receiving unit 12 receives the second search condition transmitted from the terminal device 20 . When the second search condition is received by the search condition receiving unit 12, it is stored in the storage unit 11, for example.

In this case, the generation unit 14 updates the list display in a manner in which the second search condition is applied to other than any one search result. That is, when the second search condition is received by the search condition receiving unit 12, the generating unit 14, for example, selects the shop selected by the terminal device 20 (one selected from the plurality of shops displayed as a list). store), information such as the date and time of reservation or the number of people reserved is added to the information on the selected store. In addition, for example, the generation unit 14 also generates the terminal device for the information of the shops displayed in the list as a result of the search based on the first search condition (the other shops displayed in the list other than the selected one shop). Add the information of the second search condition (reservation date and time, number of persons, etc.) specified in 20 . When the second search condition is applied in this manner, the generation unit 14 updates the already generated list display so that the second search condition is added to the information of the displayed shops. That is, the generation unit 14 causes the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 to display, for example, a Web page including information about the selected store and the second search condition. In addition, the generation unit 14 may generate, for example, a web page of information (list display) regarding a plurality of stores with the second search condition input, and display the web page on the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 .

As a result, for example, even if one store selected by the terminal device 20 does not have any vacancies under the second search condition, the information processing system 1 can select the store again to check the vacancies of other stores. It becomes possible to omit the necessity of re-inputting the second search condition for other stores that have been searched.

Moreover, it is preferable that the storage unit 11 described above stores the search results extracted by the extraction unit 13 . In this case, the generation unit 14 preferably generates the list display by adding the second search condition to the search results stored in the storage unit 11 .

The extraction unit 13 stores the result of searching the storage unit 11 based on the first search condition in the storage unit 11 . The generating unit 14 reads the search result from the storage unit 11, and when the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the second search condition, adds the second search condition to the read search result. For example, when storing information on a plurality of stores in the storage unit 11 as search results, the extracting unit 13 stores information on a plurality of stores, and when one store is selected from the plurality of stores, the information on the selected store includes the search condition Add the second search condition (reservation date and time, number of persons reserved, etc.) received by the receiving unit 12 . In addition, when information on a plurality of stores as search results is stored in the storage unit 11, the extraction unit 13 adds a second search condition (reservation date and time, number of people for reservation, etc.) to the information on the plurality of stores. The generation unit 14 causes the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 to display, for example, a Web page including information on the selected store and the second search condition. In addition, the generation unit 14 may generate, for example, a web page of information (list display) regarding a plurality of stores with the second search condition input, and display the web page on the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 .

Thereby, the information processing system 1 can keep holding the second search condition.

Moreover, it is preferable that the user's terminal device 20 temporarily stores the search results extracted by the extraction unit 13 . In this case, the generating unit 14 preferably generates a list display reflecting the second search condition using the search results stored in the terminal device 20 of the user.

The extraction unit 13 transmits the result of searching the storage unit 11 based on the first search result to the terminal device 20 . The terminal device 20 stores the transmitted search result, and inputs the second search condition based on the search result. The terminal device 20 transmits the input second search condition to the server 10 . For example, information on a plurality of shops extracted by the extraction unit 13 is transmitted from the server 10 to the terminal device 20 . In the terminal device 20, when one store is selected from a plurality of stores, a second search condition is input for checking the availability of the selected store. The terminal device 20 transmits the selected store information and the second search condition to the server 10 .

The generation unit 14 generates a list display based on the information (the information on the selected store and the second search condition) transmitted from the terminal device 20 .

Alternatively, the terminal device 20 may store the input second search condition in a storage unit (not shown) of the terminal device 20 . In this case, the generating unit 14 accesses the list display information temporarily stored in the terminal device 20 and the second search condition, and in order to check the availability of the store selected by the terminal device 20, A list display is generated by adding information such as the date and time of reservation or the number of people reserved to the information about the selected store. In addition, for example, the generation unit 14 adds information of the second search condition (reservation date and time, number of people for reservation, etc.) to the information of the shops displayed as a list as a result of the search based on the first search condition. Generate a display.

Thereby, the information processing system 1 can update the list display even when the search result based on the first search condition is stored in the terminal device 20 .

Moreover, it is preferable that the generation unit 14 generates a list display in which search targets that do not match the second search condition are excluded from the search results.

If the second search condition (reservation date and time, number of people for reservation, etc.) is input, for example, there is a possibility that the selected store cannot make a reservation with the reservation date and time as the second search condition. In such a case, the generation unit 14, for example, excludes shops where reservations cannot be made under the second search conditions (reservation date and time, number of people reserved), and displays a list of shops that can be reserved based on the second search conditions. to generate

As a result, the information processing system 1 creates, for example, a store list excluding stores that cannot be reserved, so that the user can easily make a reservation decision.

In addition, when the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the second search conditions a plurality of times, the generating unit 14 preferably updates the list display using search items that have not changed in the plurality of second search conditions.

The second search condition is, for example, a reservation condition such as the number of persons for reservation, reservation date and time. A specific example is a reservation condition for making a reservation to visit a store or receive a service at the store. This second search condition (reservation condition) may be changed. That is, the second search condition may be input multiple times, and may be changed at each input stage. In such a case, as an example, when there is no change in the number of reservations through multiple inputs of the second search condition among the number of reservations and the date and time of reservation (second search condition), the generation unit 14 The display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 is caused to display a plurality of stores (list display) that can be reserved. Note that, for example, the reservation date and time (second search condition) is re-input by the user after the list display is updated by the generation unit 14, for example.

Thereby, the information processing system 1 can display a list based on the second search condition that the user considers to be the most important.

Moreover, when the first search condition is received again, the generating unit 14 preferably deletes the received second search condition and then generates the list display again. In this case, the search condition receiving unit 12 preferably receives a new second search condition in the first search condition received again. Moreover, it is preferable that the generation unit 14 updates the list display generated again based on the newly received second search condition.

For example, if a suitable store cannot be found under the already specified first search condition (specified area), or if a reservation cannot be made at a store that meets the already specified first search condition (specified area), the user , and may want to make a reservation at a store with a different first search condition (other area). If a suitable store cannot be found with the first search condition that has already been input, or if there are no vacancies at the store specified in the first search condition, the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 displays, for example , a predetermined button (re-input button) such as "re-input the first search condition" (not shown), etc. are displayed. When the predetermined button of the terminal device 20 is operated, the terminal device 20 displays a screen for inputting a different first search condition again on the display unit 21 . When a new first search condition is input based on the user's operation, the terminal device 20 accepts the input of the first search condition and transmits the first search condition to the server 10 .

When the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the new first search condition, the generating unit 14 deletes the second search condition already stored in the storage unit 11 . The generation unit 14 also generates a list display from the search results extracted by the extraction unit 13 based on the new first search condition, and transmits the list display to the terminal device 20 . When the second search condition is input based on the received list display, the terminal device 20 transmits the second search condition to the server 10 . When the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the second search condition, the generation unit 14 reflects the second search condition on the search result based on the first search condition, and updates the list display.

Thereby, even when a new first search condition is input, the information processing system 1 can prevent the old second search result from being reflected and can reflect the new second search result.

Next, the flow of processing of the information processing system 1 of one embodiment will be described.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart for explaining an information processing method according to one embodiment. FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining an example of a first search condition input screen and a list display. FIG. 3A is a diagram for explaining the input screen for the first search condition, and FIG. 3B is a diagram for explaining the list display. FIG. 4 is a diagram for explaining an example of an input screen for inputting the second search condition. FIG. 4A is a diagram for explaining the input of the reservation date and time, FIG. 4B is a diagram for explaining the input of the reservation time, and FIG. 4C is a diagram for explaining the input of the number of people for the reservation. is. FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining an example of a display screen.

In step ST1, the search condition receiving unit 12 receives first search conditions from the terminal device 20 of the user, for example, when the user wishes to reserve a store. The first search condition is, for example, a condition regarding the area where the store is located.

As an example is shown in FIG. 3A, the first search condition is area. The display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 displays, for example, a screen for inputting the first search condition. A first search condition is input by inputting characters in the area input field 41 or by selecting an area. Areas may be selected hierarchically, for example, in the order of Tokyo, Chiyoda Ward, and Yurakucho.

In step ST2, the extracting unit 13 searches the storage unit 11 based on the first search condition received in step ST1, and extracts information on a plurality of shops as search results.

In step ST3, the generation unit 14 generates a list of multiple stores based on the information regarding the multiple stores extracted in step ST2. This list is generated on a web page, for example, and displayed on the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 .

As an example is shown in FIG. 3B, when stores in the Yurakucho area are searched as the first search condition, information on stores in the Yurakucho area is displayed. In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 3B, the number of shops to be displayed is not limited to three, and may be four or more.

In step ST4, if one store is selected from the list of multiple stores generated in step ST3, the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the second search condition from the terminal device 20, It is determined whether or not the second search condition transmitted from the terminal device 20 has been received.

When the user selects "000 store" from the list display shown in FIG. An input field 52 for inputting a reservation date as a second search condition is displayed on the display unit 21 in the field 51 . When the reservation date is input, the terminal device 20 displays a selection button 53 for selecting the reservation time on the display unit 21, as shown in FIG. 4B. When the reservation time is selected, the terminal device 20 displays a pull-down menu 54 for selecting the number of people for reservation on the display unit 21, as shown in FIG. 4(C). After completing the input of the second search condition, the terminal device 20 transmits the second search condition to the server 10 . Note that the search condition receiving unit 12 does not need to receive all the items of the reservation date, the reservation time, and the number of persons for reservation, and may receive any one of them.

When the server 10 receives the second search condition (Yes in step ST4), the process proceeds to step ST5. If the second search condition has not been received (No in step ST4), the process proceeds to step ST6.

In step ST5, the generation unit 14 displays the second search condition received in step ST4 on the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 in addition to the information of the selected store.

In addition, when the process of step ST4 is performed again after the process described later, only the second search conditions that have not been changed among the second search conditions added to the information of the selected store are maintained, and the changed search conditions are maintained. The existing second search condition is deleted and displayed on the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 . That is, the second search condition may be changed, in which case the second search condition is entered multiple times. The generation unit 14 maintains the display of the items that have not been changed (for example, the reservation date and time) among the second search conditions (for example, the reservation date and time, the number of reservations, etc.). It should be noted that the changed second search condition can be re-entered in the terminal device 20 . As an example is shown in FIG. 5, if a reservation cannot be made at "000 store" illustrated in FIGS. Stores available for reservation are displayed on the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 . In the case illustrated in FIG. 5, "△△△ store" and "XXX store" are displayed. It should be noted that "XXX shop" exists in the lower part of the screen (not displayed on the display unit 21, but displayed on the display unit 21 when scrolled) in FIG. 3B. In other words, the server 10 can execute processing such as erasing store information and moving up the order of stores in accordance with the second search condition in order to display the list displayed on the display unit 21 .

In step ST6, the search condition receiving unit 12 determines again whether or not the first search condition is input in the terminal device 20. FIG.

For example, if the store could not be reserved based on the second search conditions received in step ST4, or if a suitable store could not be found as a result of searching based on the first search conditions received in step ST1. , the user may want to re-search the store. In this case, the terminal device 20 re-inputs the first search condition. The first search condition re-entered on the terminal device 20 is transmitted to the server 10, and the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the first search condition. Therefore, the process of step ST6 can be rephrased as judging whether or not the search condition receiving unit 12 has received the first search condition again.

When the server 10 receives the first search condition (Yes in step ST6), the process returns to step ST1. If the first search condition has not been received (No in step ST6), the process proceeds to step ST7.

In step ST7, the search condition receiving unit 12 determines whether or not the terminal device 20 has made a reservation based on the second search condition received in step ST4. That is, the search condition receiving unit 12 determines whether or not the reservation execution instruction transmitted from the terminal device 20 has been received (whether or not the reservation has been accepted).

If the reservation has been received (Yes), the server 10 executes the reservation. If the reservation has not been accepted (No), the server 10 returns the process to step ST4.

Next, the effects of this embodiment will be described.

The information processing system 1 includes a storage unit 11 that stores a plurality of search targets, a search condition reception unit 12 that receives a first search condition from a user's terminal device 20, and a search target based on the first search condition. An extraction unit 13 for extracting search results from inside and a generation unit 14 for generating a list display of the extracted search results are provided. In this case, the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the second search condition in any one of the search results displayed as a list from the terminal device 20 of the user. In addition, the generation unit 14 updates the list display in a manner in which the second search condition is applied to other than any one search result.

The information processing system 1 reflects the second search condition in the search result based on the first search condition by the user inputting the second search condition once for the search result based on the first search condition. can be made As a specific example, the information processing system 1, even if it is not possible to make a reservation under the second search condition for one store selected by the terminal device 20, can make a reservation for another store. The user's operability can be improved by saving the trouble of inputting the second search condition again.

Further, in the information processing system 1, the storage unit 11 stores the extracted search results. The generation unit 14 also generates a list display reflecting the second search condition using the search results stored in the storage unit 11 .

Thereby, the information processing system 1 can keep holding the second search condition, and can apply the second search condition to the list display of the re-search results even when the re-search is performed again.

In the information processing system 1, the terminal device 20 of the user temporarily stores the extracted search results. In this case, the generation unit 14 generates a list display reflecting the second search condition using the search results stored in the terminal device 20 of the user.

Thereby, the information processing system 1 can update the list display even when the information of the list display and the information of the second search condition are stored in the terminal device 20 .

Further, in the information processing system 1, the generation unit 14 generates a list display in which search targets that do not match the second search condition are excluded from the search results.

As a specific example, the information processing system 1 creates a store list excluding stores that cannot be reserved, so that the user can easily make a reservation decision.

Further, in the information processing system 1, when the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the second search conditions a plurality of times, the generation unit 14 updates the list display using search items that have not been changed in the plurality of second search conditions. do.

Thereby, the information processing system 1 can display a list based on the second search condition that the user considers to be the most important.

Further, in the information processing system 1, the first search condition includes at least area information. In this case, the second search condition includes at least date and time information.

As a result, the information processing system 1 can use the date and time information for reservations of shops such as restaurants.

Further, in the information processing system 1, when the first search condition is received again, the generation unit 14 deletes the received second search condition and then generates the list display again. In this case, the search condition receiving unit 12 receives a new second search condition in the first condition received again. In addition, the generating unit 14 updates the list display generated again based on the newly received second search condition.

Thereby, even when a new first search condition is input, the information processing system 1 can prevent the old second search result from being reflected and can reflect the new second search result.

Further, in the information processing method, the computer performs a storage step of storing a plurality of search targets, a first search condition receiving step of receiving the first search condition from the terminal device 20 of the user, and a search condition based on the first search condition. a first generation step of generating a list display of the extracted search results; and any one of the search results displayed as a list from the terminal device 20 of the user. , a second search condition receiving step of receiving the second search condition, and a second generating step of updating the list display in a manner in which the second search condition is applied to other than any one search result.

Thus, in the information processing method, when the user inputs the second search condition once for the search result based on the first search condition, the second search condition is converted to the search result based on the first search condition. can be reflected in

Further, the information processing program searches for a desired search target as a result from the storage unit 11 storing a plurality of search targets. The information processing program includes a search condition receiving function for receiving the first search condition from the terminal device 20 of the user, an extracting function for extracting the search result from the search target based on the first search condition, and and a generating function for generating a list display of the extracted search results. In this case, the search condition receiving function receives the second search condition in any one of the search results displayed as a list from the terminal device 20 of the user. In addition, the generation function updates the list display in a manner in which the second search condition is applied to other than any one search result.

Thereby, the information processing program converts the second search condition into the search result based on the first search condition by the user inputting the second search condition once for the search result based on the first search condition. can be reflected in

In the present embodiment, the information processing system 1 has been described as an example of being used for reservations of stores such as restaurants. However, the information processing system 1 is not limited to the above example, and may be used when making reservations for various services. The information processing system 1 may also be used when selecting various items.

In this embodiment, an input field 52 for inputting a reservation date as the second search condition is displayed on the display unit 21 in the column 51 of "000 store". This is because the reservation date has not been received. For example, if the first search condition includes the date of reservation, a selection button 53 for selecting the reservation time as the second search condition may be displayed in the column 51 of "000 store". That is, the input field for the second search condition displayed in the column 51 of "000 store" is appropriately changed according to the already input first search condition.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and may be the following embodiments.

Specifically, the generation unit 14 of the information processing system 1 may generate a list display including an input field for inputting the second search condition in the search results based on the first search condition. Then, the generation unit 14 may generate a web page corresponding to the list display and cause the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 to display the web page. FIG. 6 shows an example of the Web page displayed on the display unit 21. As shown in FIG. For example, when "Yurakucho" is specified as the area in the first search condition (see FIG. 3A), the generation unit 14 displays the second search condition in the display fields 51 of each of the plurality of stores in the Yurakucho area. Display the input field for inputting . Here, for example, the generating unit 14 displays an input field 52 for inputting the reservation date, an input field 53 for inputting the reservation time, and an input field 54 for inputting the number of people for reservation in each display field 51. Let

Further, when the second search condition is input based on the user's operation in any one of the search results based on the first search condition, the generation unit 14 adds the second search condition to all the search results. is applied to update the list display. For example, in the Web page shown in FIG. 6, when the user enters the reservation date, reservation time, and number of people in the input fields 52, 53, and 54 of "000 store", the generating unit 14 generates the first search condition Update the information (list display) about all stores extracted based on. FIG. 7 shows an example of a web page corresponding to the updated list display. Here, for example, the generation unit 14 excludes (hides) stores where reservations cannot be made under the second search conditions (reservation date, reservation time, number of people reserved), and lists stores that can be reserved based on the second search conditions. Create a new display. The Web page (see FIGS. 6, 7, etc.) displays a details button K1 for accepting an operation to display the details of the store from the user, a reservation button K2 for accepting an operation for reserving the store from the user, and the like. may

In addition, the generation unit 14 displays stores (for example, "000 store", "□□□ store") for which reservations cannot be made under the second search condition, as shown in FIG. 8 instead of the list display shown in FIG. , a list display may be generated in which the user cannot perform the reservation operation and the background color is in a gray display mode (grayed out). That is, the generation unit 14 may generate a list display in which the display mode of search targets that do not match the second search condition and the display mode of search targets that match the second search condition are different from each other. As a result, the user can easily distinguish between stores that match the second search condition and stores that do not match the second search condition in the list display of stores extracted by the first search condition.

Further, the generation unit 14 may update the list display to which the second search condition is applied while maintaining the display mode of the list display shown in FIG. 6 . For example, in the list display shown in FIG. 6, when the user enters the reservation date, reservation time, and number of people for reservation as the second search conditions in the input fields 52, 53, and 54 of "000 store", the generation unit 14 , in the input fields 52, 53, and 54 of other shops ("△△△ shop", "□□□ shop", etc.). Apply. Then, as shown in FIG. 9, the generation unit 14 puts stores (for example, "000 store", "□□□ store") for which reservations cannot be made under the second search condition into a state in which the user cannot perform a reservation operation. Furthermore, a new list display with a gray background color (gray out) is generated. Thereby, in the list display extracted by the first search condition, when the user inputs the second search condition to any one search result, the second search condition is applied to other than one arbitrary search result. Since it is possible to browse the list display of the selected mode, the visibility of the search results and the convenience of the search operation are improved. In addition, since the user can re-search in the list display shown in FIG. 9, for example, it is possible to easily grasp that a grayed-out shop has been updated so that it can be reserved by re-searching.

Here, as described above, the second search condition may be information on items not specified by the first search condition. For this reason, for example, as shown in FIG. 10, when "area" and "reservation date" are specified as the first search condition, the generating unit 14 generates An input field 53 for inputting "reservation time" not specified in the first search condition and an input field 54 for inputting "reservation number of persons" are displayed as the second search condition in the display field 51 of .

Further, as another embodiment of the present invention, when the first search condition is received again after the second search condition is received, the generating unit 14 generates the newly received first search condition and the already received first search condition. The list display may be updated using the second search condition that has been set. For example, if a suitable store cannot be found under the second search conditions, or if a reservation cannot be made at a store that matches the second search conditions, the user can use the first In some cases, the user may wish to search for a store by changing the search conditions. For example, the user may change only the first search condition "area" without changing the second search condition "reserved number of people". If a suitable store cannot be found with the second search conditions that have already been input, or if there are no vacancies in the stores specified in the second search conditions, the user can select the first store displayed in the search results. Select the re-input button (see FIGS. 7 to 9, etc.) for re-inputting the search conditions. When the re-input button is operated, the terminal device 20 displays a screen for inputting a different first search condition again on the display unit 21 . When a new first search condition is input based on the user's operation, the terminal device 20 accepts the input of the first search condition and transmits the first search condition to the server 10 .

When the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the new first search condition, the generating unit 14 generates a Update the list display with the extracted search results. As a result, even when a new first search condition is input, the information processing system 1 retains the already input second search condition and displays a list using the first search condition and the second search condition. can be updated.

FIG. 11 is a flowchart for explaining the information processing method according to the embodiment. Since the processing of steps ST11 to ST16 is the same as the processing of steps ST1 to ST6 shown in FIG. 2, the description thereof is omitted.

In step ST16, when the first search condition is input again in the terminal device 20 (step ST16: Yes), the process proceeds to step ST17. If the first search condition is not input in the terminal device 20 again (step ST16: No), the process proceeds to step ST20.

For example, in the search result shown in FIG. 9, when the user operates the re-input button to input the first search condition again, the search condition receiving unit 12 receives the first search condition from the terminal device 20 of the user in step ST17. receive.

Next, in step ST18, the extracting unit 13 searches the storage unit 11 based on the second search condition received in step ST14 and the first search condition received in step ST17, and extracts a plurality of shops as search results. Extract information about

Next, in step ST19, the generation unit 14 updates the list display displayed in step ST15 based on the information on the plurality of shops extracted in step ST18. After that, the server 10 returns the process to step ST14. Returning to step ST14, if the second search condition and the first search condition are not re-inputted (step ST14: No and step ST16: No), the server 10 advances the process to step ST20.

In step ST20, the search condition receiving section 12 determines whether or not the terminal device 20 has made a reservation. That is, the search condition receiving unit 12 determines whether or not the reservation execution instruction transmitted from the terminal device 20 has been received (whether or not the reservation has been accepted).

When the server 10 accepts the reservation (step ST20: Yes), it executes the reservation. If the server 10 has not received a reservation (step ST20: No), the process returns to step ST14.

If the second search condition is not input in step ST14 (step ST14: No) and the first search condition is input in the terminal device 20 again (step ST16: Yes), in step ST18 , the extraction unit 13 extracts the search result based only on the new first search condition received in step ST17.

According to the information processing method shown in FIG. 11, when the first search condition is received again (step ST16: Yes) after the second search condition is received (step ST14: Yes), the newly received Since the list display is updated using the received first search condition and the already received second search condition, the trouble of re-inputting the second search condition can be saved, and the user's operability is improved. can be made Further, when the second search condition is received again (step ST20: No and step ST14: Yes) after the second search condition is received (step ST14: Yes), the received first search condition Since the list display is updated using the conditions and the newly received second search conditions, the trouble of re-inputting the first search conditions can be saved, and the user's operability can be improved.

Here, the search target of the present invention may be a store, or may be a course meal, a seat (table), or the like included in the store information. That is, the search targets of the present invention include various reservation targets related to facilities. For example, the storage unit 11 stores information on each store, information on a plurality of course meals to be reserved, information on seats, and the like.

For example, as shown in FIG. 12, the generation unit 14 displays an input field for inputting the second search condition for each of a plurality of course meals included in the search results based on the first search condition. Here, when an area and a reservation date are designated as the first search condition, the generation unit 14 generates a plurality of course meals A to D included in the "○○○ restaurant" that match the first search condition. An input field for inputting the second search condition is displayed in the display field. For example, the generation unit 14 displays an input field 53 for inputting the reservation time and an input field 54 for inputting the number of people for the reservation in the display fields for each course meal.

When the second search condition is input based on the user's operation in any one of the search results based on the first search condition, the generation unit 14 applies the second search condition to all search results. The list display is updated in the manner shown. For example, on the Web page shown in FIG. 12 , when the user inputs the reservation time and number of people in the input fields 53 and 54 of “course meal B”, the generating unit 14 generates all Update the information (list display) about the course meal of . FIG. 13 shows an example of a web page corresponding to the updated list display. Here, for example, the generating unit 14 newly generates a list display in which course meals A and course meals D that cannot be reserved are grayed out, and course meals B and course meals C that can be reserved are displayed. This allows the user to reserve the desired store and course meal in the updated list display. Therefore, the user's operability can be improved because the user can save the trouble of re-inputting the second search condition for each course meal, for example. In addition, the user can easily distinguish course meals that can be reserved and course meals that cannot be reserved in the list display.

As another embodiment of the present invention, the generation unit 14 of the information processing system 1 generates, in the search results based on the first search condition, information on one or more course meals for each store, and a second course meal corresponding to each course meal. A list display including input fields for inputting search conditions may be generated. Then, the generation unit 14 may generate a web page corresponding to the list display and cause the display unit 21 of the terminal device 20 to display the web page. FIG. 14 shows an example of the Web page displayed on the display unit 21. As shown in FIG. For example, when "Yurakucho" is designated as the area in the first search condition (see FIG. 3A), the generation unit 14 displays each course meal in the display fields 51 of the plurality of stores in the Yurakucho area , an input field for inputting the second search condition is displayed. Here, for example, the generation unit 14 displays input fields 52 to 54 in association with each course meal.

Note that, as shown in FIG. 15, the generation unit 14 inputs information about one or more course meals for each store and second search conditions corresponding to each store in the search results based on the first search conditions. You may generate|occur|produce the list display containing the input column of . In the example shown in FIG. 15, one input field 52 to 54 is displayed for each store. In the configurations shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, each course meal is a reservation subject that can be reserved individually.

Here, on the Web page shown in FIG. 14, the user enters a reservation date as a second search condition in each of the input fields 52, 53, and 54 of an arbitrary course meal, for example, "course meal B" of "○○○ restaurant". When the reservation time and the number of people for reservation are input, the generation unit 14 updates the list display to the one to which the second search condition is applied while maintaining the display mode of the list display shown in FIG. 14 . FIG. 16 shows an example of a web page corresponding to the updated list display. For example, as shown in FIG. 16, the generation unit 14 selects restaurants and course meals for which reservations cannot be made under the second search conditions (for example, "course meal B" of "〇〇〇 restaurant" and "△△△ restaurant"). is set to a state in which the user cannot perform a reservation operation, and a new list display is generated in which the background color is displayed in a gray display mode (grayed out).

Also, on the Web page shown in FIG. 15, the user inputs the reservation date, reservation time, and number of people to be reserved as the second search conditions in the input fields 52, 53, and 54 of an arbitrary store, for example, "○○○ store". In this case, the generation unit 14 updates the list display to which the second search condition is applied while maintaining the display mode of the list display shown in FIG. 15 . FIG. 17 shows an example of a web page corresponding to the updated list display. For example, as shown in FIG. 17, the generating unit 14 generates a list of restaurants and course meals (for example, "course meal B" and "△△△ restaurant" of "〇〇〇 restaurant") for which reservations cannot be made under the second search condition. is set to a state in which the user cannot perform a reservation operation, and a new list display is generated in which the background color is displayed in a gray display mode (grayed out).

Note that, as shown in FIG. 18, the generation unit 14 selects restaurants and course dishes (for example, "course meal B ”, “△△△store”) are excluded (hidden), and stores and course meals that can be reserved under the second search condition (for example, “course meal A” and “course meal C” of “〇〇〇store”, A new list display of "course meal D" of "xxx restaurant" may be generated.

On the Web pages shown in FIGS. 16 to 18, a reservation button K2 is displayed for receiving an operation from the user to reserve a restaurant and a course meal. As a result, in search results containing information on a plurality of course meals, even if a reservation cannot be made for an arbitrary course meal under the second search conditions, the user can save the trouble of re-entering the second search conditions for other course meals. This can be omitted, and the operability for the user can be improved.
