Abstract

PURPOSE:To save a storage capacity and to fix the stationary point of data without being affected by data processing time by referring to a stop or start display from the outside and performing corresponding operation. CONSTITUTION:When there is a stop instruction, a B processing means 5 stops the processing at this point and refers to the instruction from a stop/start instructing device at the intervals of several seconds. When the instruction can be referred to, the processing of the B processing means 5 is restarted to perform carry out processes from a process for finding the storage position of input data to be processed from values from a storage position instruction part 7 and a reference position instruction part 9 to a process for updating the value of the reference position instruction part 9. Even when the B processing means 5 is in the stop state, input operation is possible by an A processing means 4 and input processing is never stopped.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a data input processing system, and in particular, to a data input processing system, which is equipped with a plurality of data input terminals and a plurality of types of data input means, and has a plurality of input data to be generated, updated, and deleted. It relates to a data input processing system when there is data.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional data input processing systems of this type are equipped with means for controlling data input operations and responses, and means for generating, updating, and deleting data from the contents of input data. When a certain group of data input is completed by repeating input operations and responses, the latter function generates, updates, and deletes data from the contents of the input data, and when the data processing for that group is completed, It operates by performing the data input operation of the former function in order to input the next data.

Also, when the data input operation and its response processing differ depending on the content of the input data, or when the procedures for data generation, update, and deletion differ, the data input processing is constructed as a separate process, and a certain data When performing input processing, by selecting a processing means suitable for the purpose, the data input processing means is stored in the storage device and operated.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional data input processing system described above, after inputting a certain set of data, it is necessary to perform data processing such as generating, updating, and deleting data until the next data can be input, which naturally takes a certain amount of time. Furthermore, if the data processing timings coincide in a situation where a plurality of input processing means are operating, there is a first problem in that even more data processing time is required.

The second problem is that in order to save data, a common quiescent point is determined for each piece of data, and at that point the data contents are saved in a separate medium, but data processing such as data generation, updating, and deletion is required each time data is input. Therefore, it is necessary to stop all input processing in order to determine the static point.

The problem in Figure 3 is that when multiple types of data input processing means operate, all are stored in the storage device, so a storage capacity that is greater than the total capacity of the processing means that may operate simultaneously at point - is required. In addition, the capacity corresponding to the operation is occupied by input processing.

[Means to solve the problem]

The system of the present invention is equipped with a plurality of terminals for inputting data and a plurality of types of data input processing means, and is configured to generate a plurality of data by the data input processing means and save it as a file. In the input processing system, an input data storage unit that stores input data;
a storage position instruction unit that holds a value indicating the storage position; and a storage position instruction unit that stores input data in the input data storage unit based on the value of the storage position instruction unit while controlling data input operations and response processing; means for updating the value of the section to a value indicating the storage position of the next input data; and a reference position indicating section that holds a value indicating the reference position when referring to the input data stored in the input data storage section. , refers to human data from the input data storage section based on the reference position instruction section, performs data generation processing according to the contents of the input data, and determines the storage position of the input data to be referenced next based on the value of the reference position instruction section. It is characterized by having means for updating to a value indicated, referring to an external stop or start instruction, and performing an operation in accordance with the instruction.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows a configuration diagram of an embodiment of the present invention.

1 is a display device, 2 is an input device, 3 is a first storage device, 4 is A processing means, 5 is B processing means, 6 is a second storage device, 7 is a storage position instruction section, 8 is an input data storage section, Reference numeral 9 represents a reference position instructing unit, 10 represents generated data, and 11 represents a stop start instructing device.

The display device 1 and the input device 2 are devices for inputting data,
The first storage device 3 includes the A processing means 4. When the B processing means 5 operates, the input data storage unit 8 is a storage area for storing the input data contents, and the storage position instruction unit 7 stores the input data in the input data storage unit 8. When storing, the storage area A processing means 4 for holding the value indicating the storage position controls the input operation and response to the display device 7 and the input device 2, and based on the value of the storage position instruction section 7. A reference position indicating unit 9 is a processing means having a function of storing input data in the input data storage unit 8 and updating the value of the storage position indicating unit 7 to a value indicating the storage position of the next input data.
is a storage area for holding a value indicating the reference position when referring to the input data stored in the input data storage unit 8, and generated data 10 is generated based on the contents of the input data.

Data generated by updating and deletion, the stop/start instructing device 11 is a device that instructs the B processing means 5 to stop and start, and the B processing means 5 receives input data from the input data storage section 8 based on the reference position instruction section 9. , performs the data generation process of the generated data 10 according to the contents of the input data, updates the value of the reference position indicating section 9 to a value indicating the storage position of the input data to be referenced next, and stops the start instruction device 11. This processing means has the function of performing operations based on instructions from the computer.

Next, the operation of the A processing means 4 from input operation to outputting the contents of input data in the embodiment and other functions related to the operation will be explained.

A processing means 4 is a display device 1. It controls the input operations and responses of the input device 2, and when receiving an instruction to complete input of a batch of data, configures the input data contents into data in a certain format. This format is the input data storage section 8
The format of the input data output to the B processing means 5 is a format in which the conditions and data contents necessary for the B processing means 5 to refer to this input data and create the generated data 10 are configured according to certain rules. The format must be such that the means can refer to the input data and recognize the type of data input processing and data content.

This input data is stored in the input data storage section 8, and when the data is referenced, the next data to be referenced can be recognized and directly referenced.

Therefore, the area of the input data storage section 8 is 1,2°3...
Use IJitc that allows data to be referenced using relative data storage locations such as .

As a result, the A processing means 4 can specify a storage position and directly store data, and the B processing means 5 can specify a reference position and directly refer to data.

At this time, the data storage position is determined by the value of the storage position instruction section 7.
1" is added. However, a method is adopted in which the input data storage section 8 is circulated and used, and the storage position next to the final storage position is set to "1".

Also, in order to prevent input data at a position not referenced by the B processing means 5 from being replaced with the next input data,
The range of storage positions is set to “1” in the storage position instruction section 7.
from the value added to the value obtained by subtracting "1" from the value of the reference position indicator 9. However, when the value of the storage position indicator 7 is the value of the final storage position, the value obtained by adding "■" to it is ``1'', and when the value of the reference position indicator 9 is ``1'', then ``1'' is deleted. The actual value shall be the value at the final storage position.

Therefore, when the input data to be stored does not fall within this range, a notification corresponding to each input process is issued to issue an input completion instruction after waiting as a response to the input process, or to cancel the input process. The input data is stored in the input data storage unit based on the storage position determined in this way, and then the value in the storage position indication unit 7 is updated to the value of the position where the input data is stored. This completes a batch of data input, and the next data input process is performed.

Next, the operation of data generation, update, and deletion processing for input data contents in the embodiment and other functions related to the operation will be explained.

The B processing means 5 first determines the storage position of the input data to be processed from the input data stored in the input data storage unit 8 from the values of the storage position indication unit 7 and the reference position indication unit 9. The method for determining this is based on the assumption that when the value of the storage position indicator 7 and the value of the reference position indicator 9 are equal, there is no input data to be processed. Storage position instruction section 7 from the value of reference position instruction section 9
When the value of is large, the value is from the value of the reference position indicator 9 plus "1" to the value of the storage position indicator 7, and the value of the reference position indicator 9 is greater than the value of the storage position indicator 7. When it is large, it is from the value obtained by adding “1” to the value of the reference position indicator 9 to the value of the final storage position, and from “1” to the value of the storage position indicator 7.

However, when the value of the reference position indicator 9 is equal to the value of the final storage position, the input data to be processed is from the value of the reference position indicator 9 plus "1" to the value of the final storage position. Assume that there is no When there is no input data to be processed, the processing is temporarily stopped for a few seconds, and the operation starts again from the reference processing of the storage position instruction section 7 and the reference position instruction section 9.

Once the reference range is determined, the input data at that storage location is sequentially referenced from the input data storage unit 8, and generated data 10 is created from the data contents for each item, and the processing of all input data in that range is completed. Then, the value of the reference position indicating section 9 is updated to the value of the storage position of the last referenced input data.

After updating the value of the reference position instructing section 9, it is checked whether there is a stop instruction from the stop start instructing device 11.

When there is no stop instruction, from the process of determining the storage position of the input data to be processed from the values of the storage position instruction section 7 and the reference position instruction section 9 to processing the input data and updating the value of the reference position instruction section 9. Process.

On the other hand, when there is a stop instruction, the B processing means 5
The process is stopped, and instructions from the stop/start instruction device are referenced every few seconds while the process is stopped. This reference is repeated until the start instruction can be referenced, and when the start instruction can be referenced, the processing of the B processing means 5 is restarted, and the input to be processed is determined from the values of the storage position instruction section 7 and the reference position instruction section 9. Processing from determining the data storage position to processing the input data and updating the value of the reference position indicating section 9 is performed.

By the way, when the B processing means 5 stops, fluctuations in the contents of the generated data 10 due to input processing also stop, and a common stationary point for each generated data 10 can be provided. Naturally, even if the B processing means 5 stops, the input operation is still performed by the A processing means 4, so the input processing does not stop.
This means that a static point for fluctuating data can be set without stopping input processing in a 4-hour system. However, in the A processing means 4, when the storage position of the input data becomes a value obtained by subtracting "1" from the value in the reference position indicating section 9,
In order to avoid this, the input data storage unit 8 stores the maximum expected number of data that will be generated during the stop time of the B processing means 5 and a certain amount of margin. It is necessary to provide an area that can store a sufficient number of items. However, when the value of the reference position indicator 9 is "1", the value subtracted by "1" is the final storage position.

Since the A processing means 4 and the B processing means 5 operate asynchronously as means for performing different processes, they operate without being affected by the operation of one of them, leading to increased processing efficiency.

In addition, in a system where multiple types of input processing exist, even if the creation procedure of the generated data 10 for input data is different, if the input operation corresponding to the function of the A processing means 4 and the structure of the input data are similar, The A processing means 4 is made common.

Moreover, regardless of the type of input data, all the functions for creating the generated data 10 are provided in the B processing means 5 and shared, so that only one function exists in the system.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described above, in the data input processing system of the present invention, the waiting time for a response in a data input operation is not affected by the data processing time, and is kept constant and short. Also, even if multiple types of data input processing operate,
The usage capacity of the storage device in which the processing is stored can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, it is possible to determine a static point for constantly changing data without stopping input processing.
Suitable for 24-hour operating systems.
