Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a material creation support system suitable for managing a material file group created over time in business and for supporting creation of a new material file.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, in the field of business, the amount of materials such as documents handled has become enormous.
In the past, this enormous amount of material was managed on paper, so management itself was difficult. Furthermore, it was difficult to handle because a large amount of data had to be handled.

Therefore, as a countermeasure against this, attempts have been gradually made to make paperless by computerizing by computer. As a result, a large amount of materials can be handled.

For example, even in the creation and management of materials in business, there is an increasing number of systems in which the conventional paper management system is stopped and the data is managed in a computer (material data). ing.

On the other hand, there is a system that handles multimedia information such as graphic information, image information and voice information in addition to text information as material data to be taken into a computer. This is because the performance of the computer and its peripheral devices has improved significantly due to the development of hardware technology, and the effectiveness of the expression means using multimedia information has recently been recognized.

[0006] In such a system, the rate of digitization of material data once described on paper has decreased due to the recent spread of business forms using computers such as networks. It is becoming more and more common for each material data to be directly input to a computer from the beginning,
A large amount of material data input by such a method can be efficiently handled.

[0007]

As described above, in recent years, it has become possible to manage materials with a computer. However, even if the material is digitized by using a computer and it becomes possible to handle a large amount of material data, there is no relation between the materials, that is, simply by inputting to the computer, ( The material data will be managed in a form that relies on the user's memory (relationship between materials), which will impose a heavy burden on the user. Managing the material data in this way becomes more difficult as the system grows.

Now, let us consider a case where a material is created, in particular, a specification material is created as a material created by each individual in business. In the process of creating this specification document, various documents such as personal diary, various memos, meeting minutes, work process management documents, reports and presentation materials may be created over time. Many.

It is considered that these various materials created along with the passage of time form a material life cycle, so to speak. Various materials are taken into a computer and managed.

However, in the conventional method of creating and managing materials, it is quite difficult to associate the materials. For this reason, at least by looking at the material showing the entire schedule such as the work process management material, the user who manages the material remembers when the material was created, and retrieves it whenever necessary.

As described above, in the conventional material management method, the material once created is rarely used, and it is inevitable to search for it when it is necessary. It is possible to overlook it.

On the other hand, recently, a multimedia material creating system has come out.
The so-called linking work is currently done manually.

Further, since these systems have been studied in a generalized form, it is possible to efficiently support and manage the material creation within the range of the material life cycle created at the individual level in business. It is not suitable for a system focused on one application.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and interactively processes under time management in each process of the life cycle of a material to suit the work form of the material creator. It is to provide a material creation support system excellent in human interface.

[0015]

According to the present invention, an instruction input means for inputting various instructions and a material information input means for inputting a material file with date stamp information indicating a created date added thereto. A keyword setting means for setting an arbitrary character string in the input material file as a keyword, a keyword extracting means for extracting the set keyword from the material file, and the extracted keyword for the material file Means for adding the keyword, a storage means for storing the material file to which the keyword is added, and a material file to which the specified keyword is added when the keyword is specified by the instruction input means And a table displaying the retrieved material files. Means is provided, and the display means specifies a material file group necessary for creating a new material file by the instruction input means, and an arbitrary date within the period when the specified material file group is created.

Any one of the displayed keywords is input by the instruction input means. If specified, from the material files in the material file group where the specified date and the date indicated by the date stamp information match,
The date indicated by the date stamp information of the material file to which the same keyword as other keywords added to this displayed material file is added, as well as searching and displaying the material file to which the specified keyword is added Show all and any 1 of the displayed dates
When one is designated by the instruction input means, the keywords of the material files in which the designated date and the date indicated by the date stamp information match in the material file group are displayed in a list, and the listed keywords are displayed. For other keywords that are added together with the same keyword to the material file to which the previously specified keyword is added, the display form is changed to other keywords and displayed, and the above display form is When any one of the displayed keywords is designated by the instruction input means, the designated date and the date stamp information in the material file group are displayed based on the designated keyword. The feature is that the document file to which the specified keyword is added is searched and displayed in the document file with the same date. To.

[0016] According to the above-mentioned configuration, with respect to material files having life cycle characteristics such as specifications, which are mainly created by individuals in business, date information of each material file and keywords extracted from each material file The related data files are appropriately presented in the process of creating materials such as specifications, so that the operator can create materials efficiently without overlooking important matters. it can.

Further, it is possible to perform management such as visually presenting the progress status of the actual work by using the material file showing the work process in the created material file. By presenting the prepared material file, it is possible to show concrete measures.

In the above structure, the date data setting means for setting the date described in the material file input by the material information input means as date data, and the set date data are extracted from the material file. By providing the date data extracting means and the date data adding means for adding the extracted date data to the material file, the date data, which is the information representing the date in the material file, is used for the material file. You can search.

In addition, by creating a summary file in which the contents of the material file are summarized in a limited number of characters and storing them in the storage means, when searching for a desired material file, the summary file is first used. When the search is performed and the summary file obtained as a result of the search is the summary file of the desired material file, the operator can display the desired material file to improve the efficiency of the search. .

[0020]

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the material creation support system according to the embodiment. In FIG. 1, the material creation support system includes a material data input unit 1, a keyword setting unit 2, a keyword extraction unit 3, a date data setting unit 4, a date data extraction unit 5, a support system management unit 6, a material file storage unit 7, It is composed of a screen operation unit 8, a display unit 9, and an operation input unit 10.

The material data input unit 1 is for inputting various material data to a computer as code information. The material data referred to here may be, for example, diary information, memo information, minutes information of each conference created by each individual in the course of work, and a work process chart showing a rough schedule of work.

In the current network environment, these material data are often directly input as coded data to a computer at the stage of creating various materials as a business form. Further, since the use of electronic mail and the like becomes popular as the network environment is enhanced, the material data can be stored and managed as code data that can be handled by a computer from the beginning.

It is assumed that the material data input unit 1 automatically adds date stamp information indicating the date of creation of the material data. The keyword setting unit 2 sets a character string such as an arbitrary word or phrase in the material data input by the material data input unit 1 as a keyword. The setting of the keyword is performed by applying a specific mark such as an underline or an emphasis to the character string that becomes the keyword.

The keyword extracting unit 3 extracts the character string having the specific mark by the keyword setting unit 2 as a keyword from the material data. Since the specific code attribute is added to the character string set as the keyword in the encoded material data, the keyword extracting unit 3 can easily extract the keyword.

The date data setting unit 4 sets a specific mark on data (date data) indicating the date in the material data input by the material data input unit 1. The date data extraction unit 5 extracts the date data having the specific mark by the date data setting unit 2.

The support system management unit 6 adds the keyword extracted by the keyword extraction unit 3 and the date data extracted by the date data extraction unit 5 to the material data to create a material file. In addition, the management unit 6

The display unit 9 is for displaying information expressed by the screen operation unit 8 in a form that is easy for the operator to understand. The operation input unit 10 is for receiving various instructions from the outside and is, for example, a mouse, a keyboard, or the like.

In the present embodiment, as already described, the work process table in business, diary information, various memo information, conference minutes, etc. are handled as the material data. For example,
The diary information usually describes the progress of daily work. Therefore, from the viewpoint of the life cycle of material data, the diary information is effective information (association information) for associating with other material data.
May be included in large numbers. An example of the description of this diary information is shown in FIG.

In the example of the figure, as the described format,
Dated “1993.5.15” (a), business theme (target system name “LED integrated HI system”)
Since data such as (b) and numerical information “640 × 480” (c) is described, the operator can select a favorite word from these data as a keyword as needed. In the case of setting a keyword or the like in the input material data, normally, the operator may select the function of keyword setting after inputting the document data into the computer.

Further, various memo information can be used as effective information in the case of updating the material files, associating the material files which are temporally separated from each other in the life cycle of the material files in this work.

These material files are shown in FIG. 4 (a).
As shown in FIG. 5, it comprises a keyword for searching the material file, a header section for writing the date stamp information, and a material data writing section for writing the input material data.

Next, the operation of the material creation support system having the above configuration will be described with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. 2 (a) and 2 (b). (Keyword and date data setting) First, various material data is input by the material data input unit 1 (see FIG. 2).
(A) Step S101). At this time, date stamp information indicating the date when this material data was created is automatically added to the material data by the material data input unit 1.

Next, the screen operation unit 8 displays a message on the screen prompting the user to select whether to extract the date data appearing in the input material data. When date data is extracted in response to this message (step S102 in FIG. 2A), the operator uses the operation input unit 10 to underline the portion indicating the date appearing in the material data.
Apply specific marks such as emphasis.

Next, the date data setting unit 3 has attribute information (mark attribute information) indicating that the character data of the portion marked with the specific mark on the screen is marked with the specific mark.
Is added.

Then, the date data extraction unit 4 extracts the portion of the material data to which the mark attribute information is added by the date data setting unit 3 as date data, and outputs the extracted date data to the support system management unit 6. (Step S103 of FIG. 2A).

Next, the screen operation unit 8 displays a message prompting the user to select whether or not to extract the keyword from the input material data. Then, the operator selects an important word in the material data displayed on the screen of the display unit 9,
In order to use the phrase as a keyword of the material data, the operation input unit 10 is used to put a specific mark such as an underline or emphasis on the word or phrase.

For example, if the material data is a diary as shown in FIG. 3, date (a) "1993.5.15", target system name (b) "LED integrated HI system", numerical information (c) Since a word such as “640 × 480” is a word indicating the contents of this diary, a word that the operator considers to be important is selected as a keyword from these words as necessary, and a specific mark is added to the selected word. Is applied.

When the material data on the screen is marked with a specific mark, the keyword setting section 2 adds mark attribute information (information indicating a keyword) to the character string of the portion marked with the specific mark. .

Next, the keyword extracting section 3 extracts a character string to which the mark attribute information is added by the keyword setting section 2 in the material data as a keyword (step S105 in FIG. 2A), and extracts the extracted keyword. Output to the support system management unit 6.

The support system management unit 6 stores the keyword output from the keyword extraction unit 3 and the date data output from the date data extraction unit 5 in the header portion of the material data input by the material data input unit 1.

The material file is stored in the material file storage unit 7 (step S107 in FIG. 2A).

Further, the support system management unit 6 is shown in FIG.
The contents of the graph display file as shown in (c) are updated. The graph display file is for registering the number of materials created on that date for each date, and is prepared in advance in the material file storage unit 7. (Display of Reference Material File When Creating New Material File) First, the operator designates the material file group of the work for which the additional material file is to be created by the operation input unit 10. Then, the screen operation unit 8 notifies the support system management unit 6 to that effect.

Then, the support system management unit 6 reads out the graph display file corresponding to the material file group from the material file storage unit 7 and outputs the contents (material data) of the file to the screen operation unit 8.

Then, the screen operation unit 8 displays a screen 90 composed of a graph display area 91 and a material data display area 92 as shown in FIG. 5 in order to make it easier for the operator to search for a desired material file. Displayed in part 9.

Next, the screen operation unit 8 is based on the contents of the graph display file output from the support system management unit 6, and as shown in FIG. 5, a graph display area 91 on the screen 90 of the display unit 9. A bar graph showing the material creation frequency by date (hereinafter referred to as the material creation frequency graph) is displayed on the screen (Fig. 2).
(B) Step S201). In this material creation frequency graph, as shown in FIG. 5, the horizontal axis represents dates and the vertical axis represents the number of material files created for each date. Further, the graph designating cursor in the graph display area 91 moves in the horizontal direction of the screen.

When the material creation frequency graph is displayed in the graph display area 91 on the screen 90, the operator operates the cursor at the position of the date at which the desired material file (desired material file) is considered to exist. Move by the unit 10 and click (step S20 in FIG. 2B).
2). Here, it is assumed that there is a material file desired by the operator on "May 15", and the cursor is moved to the position of the material creation frequency graph for "May 15" on the screen.

Then, the screen operation unit 8 displays "May 15th"
When it is determined that the material creation frequency graph is designated, the support system management unit 6 is notified of that fact. When the support system management unit 6 is notified by the screen operation unit 8 that the material creation frequency graph of “May 15” has been designated, the support system management unit 6 selects one of the material file groups of the relevant business in the material file storage unit 7. , "5
Search for a material file to which the date stamp information of "15th of a month" is added.

The support system management unit 6 refers to each header part of each material file of the material file group in the material file storage unit 7, and the material file to which the date stamp information of "May 15" is added. Is searched, all the keywords recorded in the header part of the searched material file are extracted, and the extracted keywords are output to the screen operation unit 8.

As shown in FIG. 5, the screen operation unit 8 opens a keyword display window in the material data display area 92 on the screen 90 of the display unit 9, and outputs from the support system management unit 6 in the window. Display a list of keywords.

The operator selects and designates a keyword of a desired material file from the keywords displayed in the keyword display window by the operation input unit 10. Then, the screen operation unit 8 searches the material file storage unit 7 based on the keyword specified by the operation input unit 10.

Next, the screen operation unit 8 opens the material data display window # 1 in the material data display area 92 of the screen 90 as shown in FIG. 5, and the opened material data display window # 1 is displayed. , The material data written in the material data writing unit of the material file to which the selected keyword is added is displayed. Here, when there are a plurality of material files having the selected keyword, the screen operation unit 8 opens the material data display window # 1 by the number corresponding to the number of the material files to display each material data display. Display each material data in window # 1.

At the same time, the screen operation unit 8 displays the date when the material file (material file having the same keyword as this material file) related to this material file exists in the graph display area 91 as shown in FIG. Change the display form by blinking the data creation frequency graph of.

When the operator wants to see the contents of the related material file, the operator uses the operation input unit 10 to move the graph designating cursor on the screen to the position of the material creation frequency graph whose display form has changed. Even while the graph-designating cursor is moving, the keyword group of the material file created on the first designated date is displayed in the keyword display window (step S203 in FIG. 2B).

When the position of the material creation frequency graph in which the graph designating cursor is blinking is reached, the material file related to the material data displayed earlier in the keyword group displayed in the keyword display window. The keyword of (the material file to which the same keyword as the previously displayed material file is added) is highlighted.

When the operator selects the highlighted keyword using the operation input unit 10, the screen operation unit 8
The material file accumulating section 7 is searched for a material file to which the selected keyword is added. Then, the screen operation unit 8
Opens the material data display window # 2 in the material data display area 92 on the display unit 9 and displays the content of the material file obtained as a result of the search in the material data display window # 2 (Fig. 2 (b), step S204).
This state is shown in FIG.

As a result, the contents of the material file necessary to create a new material file can be displayed. According to the above-mentioned embodiment, when the operator designates an arbitrary date within a specific period of time when a certain material file group is created, a material file having date stamp information indicating the designated date is searched and the result of this search is obtained. The keyword added to the material file is displayed in a list, and the operator can specify any one of the displayed keywords to display the material file having the specified keyword. Thus, the operator can search for a desired material file of the operator without having to remember each keyword of the created material file.

Furthermore, when the displayed material file is created, a specific mark (character modification) such as an underline or an emphasis is added to a character string such as an important word or phrase in the material file.
The operator specifies any one of the keywords set in the same material file, so that the material is added to the material file having the specified keyword in the material file group. By displaying all the dates indicated by the date stamp information, the operator can know the existence of the material file which is related in content to the material file displayed first.

Further, by the operator designating any one of the displayed dates, the keyword added to the material file having the date stamp information of the designated date in the material data group. List all

In the above embodiment, the material file having the same keyword is searched, and another keyword held by the material file obtained as a result of this search is displayed, so that the operator can display the content in the material file displayed first. It is possible to know the existence of material files that are related to each other. As a result, it is possible to display the material files that are related in content to the arbitrary material files without omission.

In the above embodiment, generally, the date stamp information is always added as attribute information to the material data created on the computer, so that the material file group created along with the passage of time in the work is created. In the period in which the material file group is created, the created amount of the material file for each date is displayed in a form along the passage of time. Even if you do not know the location of the required document file, it is considered that there are important document files on the date when the amount of created document files is large. Since the contents of all the material files to which the date stamp information of the date is added can be presented, the operator can easily search.

Further, in the above embodiment, in each material file, an important portion is underlined, the color is changed to another portion, the size of the character is changed, and the like. By using the information of these emphasized parts as related information for associating the material files with each other, a new material file is created by referring to the material file created in the past. In doing so, it is possible to reuse the important material file without overlooking it, and to refer to it as a related material file, and to present it to the operator when necessary.

In the above embodiment, the case where the system is applied as a stand-alone system to support the preparation of an individual when preparing a material is described, but it can also be applied to a network system or the like. For example, in groupware that performs collaborative work in each group, it can be shared as a material file organized for each individual in the group.

In the above embodiment, the material file matching the externally designated keyword is searched and displayed, but the designated keyword may have a range. For example, when performing a search by specifying the date, in the business that is the target of application in the above example,
By utilizing the fact that things are processed in units of week, month, etc., the material file may be searched within the range of one week and one month including the specified date.

In the above embodiment, when a desired material file is to be displayed, the material file in the material file storage unit 7 is directly searched and the searched material file is displayed as it is. It is not limited to this. For example, a summary file that summarizes the material file with a limited number of characters is created, keywords and date data extracted from the material file corresponding to the summary file are added, and the summary file is stored in the storage unit 7 in advance. deep. Also, date stamp information is automatically added to the summary file when it is created. When it is desired to display a desired material file, the material file is not directly searched and displayed, but a summary file prepared in advance is searched and displayed. Then, when the operator determines that the displayed summary file is a summary of the desired material file and instructs the display of the material file corresponding to the summary file, the material corresponding to the summary file is not displayed for the first time. Just display the file. In this way, by displaying the summary file in order to confirm the content of the target material file while searching for the desired material file,
The efficiency of search can be improved.

Further, in the above embodiment, when the material file was created, the character strings in the material file were marked to set the keywords, but the invention is not limited to this. For example, in the existing document file group,
It is also possible to extract a character string that is modified by underlining, highlighting, marking, etc. in the material file and add the extracted character string to the material file as a keyword. At this time, an arbitrary decoration may be designated, the designated character string may be extracted, and the extracted character string may be used as a keyword.
