Abstract

PURPOSE:To easily grasp a series of flows of the total physical job of a single network regardless of the logical job unit by producing the unique numbers used in a system as the identification names of each job in a data base DB information file. CONSTITUTION:A DB information collecting part 3 writes the information necessary for output of a job network diagram related to the relevant job into a DB information file 7 through a job information DB 6. The physical and logical job names are unique in the physical and logical job network diagrams respectively, as long as the logical job names included in a single system and the physical job names included in a single logical job are arranged to be unique respectively, in the stage producing the file 7. Thus, these job names can be correctly identified. In a global job network diagram, a unique number production part 4 produces the unique numbers and identifies these numbers. Then, these three diagrams can be produced with the file 7 of a common format.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for creating a global job network diagram in a business operation by a computer, and a job (corresponding to one job control language) The present invention relates to a global job network diagram creation apparatus that draws information on leading / trailing relations of.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a business operation using a computer, a job corresponding to one job control language (hereinafter,
When creating a series of flows of physical jobs (hereinafter called job networks) and job networks of physical jobs grouped by function (hereinafter called logical jobs) as a diagram, Required to create a job network diagram separately from the database that stores information about job names, preceding job names, execution cycles, constituent physical job names, running system names, operation start dates, operation end dates, and exclusive job names. It collected various information and edited and output it.

That is, a job network diagram of a physical job and a job network diagram of a logical job.
There were job network diagrams of various types.

For example, in the physical job network diagram as shown in FIG. 2A, the logical job LJOB1 is composed of two physical jobs PJOB1 and PJOB2, and PJOB2 is executed after PJOB1 is completed. Indicates what to do. Similarly, the logical job LJOB2 is composed of a physical job PJOB3, and the logical job LJOB3 is composed of four physical jobs.
It is necessary to execute PJOB6 after JOB4 and PJOB5 are completed, and PJOB7 indicates that there is no network relationship with other physical jobs.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2B, the logical job network diagram shows the network relation of the logical job itself, and represents that LJOB2 and LJOB3 are executed after LJOB1 is completed.

[0006]

In this conventional job network diagram creating apparatus, the job network diagram of the physical job and the job network diagram of the logical job are separately edited and output, so that it is not limited to the unit of the logical job. There is a problem that a series of physical job flows (hereinafter, referred to as a global job network) in one network cannot be easily grasped.

[0007]

A global job network diagram creating apparatus according to the present invention stores an instruction statement analysis section for allocating a job network diagram to be output according to an input instruction statement and a plurality of job information. A database that collects the information of the corresponding job from the existing job information database
A DB information collection unit that creates an information file, a unique number creation unit that creates a unique number that is unique in the system as an identification name of each job in the DB information file, and the DB information file that is input to the job network diagram And a network output unit for editing into an output format.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, the global job network diagram creation device 10 includes a directive statement analysis unit 2, a DB information collection unit 3, a unique number creation unit 4, and a network output unit 5, and a job information database 6 and a DB information file 7 are stored. An input device 1 such as a paper card device as an input and a display device 8 such as a CRT that requires a related file as an input.
And an output device 9 such as a printer device.

The input device inputs an execution command for each job network diagram creation process by an instruction sentence or the like.

The instruction statement analysis unit 2 inputs the above-mentioned execution command, performs error checking / analysis of the command, and outputs the analysis result.

The DB information collection unit 3 writes the information necessary for outputting the job network diagram regarding the job from the job information database 6 to the DB information file 7.

The job information database 6 has two dummy physical jobs, a leading dummy and a trailing dummy for one logical job. Accordingly, when the logical jobs have a network relationship, it is possible to associate the succeeding dummy of the preceding logical job with the preceding dummy of the succeeding logical job.

At the stage of creating the DB information file 7, the logical job name in one system and the physical job name in one logical job are unique (the physical job name is unique in one system is the same job control language. The job name will be different, and it is difficult to manage because it is complicated.) As shown in FIG. 3, the physical job name in the physical job network diagram is the logical job name in the logical job network diagram. Since each job name is unique, there is no problem in identifying it. However, in the global job network diagram, it is not unique unless both the physical job name and the logical job name are combined.

As shown in the record format in FIG. 3, the DB information file 7 is a logical page number. 、 Vertical position / horizontal position that indicates the vertical / horizontal position on the network diagram output, leading status / trailing status that indicates the leading / trailing status of the job on the network diagram creation, whether the job is a real job or deleted. It contains the job status that shows the job status such as empty job.

However, in the case of the global job network, the number of physical jobs per network is considered to be considerable, so it is desirable to reduce the area per record as much as possible. Therefore, in creating a global job network diagram, in the unique number creating unit 4, instead of the combination of the physical job name and the logical job name, a unique number (a number that is unique within the system It is to identify and create).

As a result, a table for associating the unique number with the combination of the physical job name and the logical job name is required when outputting the global job network diagram.
A physical job network diagram, a logical job network diagram, and a global job network diagram can be created in a DB information file in a common format.

The network output unit 5 inputs the DB information file 7, and actually edits and outputs the network diagram on the display device 8 or the output device 9.

As described above, it is possible to output a series of job flows (global job network) for the entire network regardless of the units of logical jobs.

FIG. 4 shows an output example of a concrete global job network diagram. This figure is a global job network diagram created based on FIG. 2. The leading dummy and trailing dummy are converted to logical job names and displayed on the network diagram output so that the division of logical jobs can be easily understood.

[0021]

As described above, according to the present invention, a unique number is used as an identification name instead of a job name, so that the area per record is minimized and the DB information file has a common format with other job network diagrams. Has the effect that Then, it is possible to easily create a global job network diagram of physical jobs of the entire network regardless of the unit of logical jobs.
