The information above is offered to the users and the forming of the specification is supported by providing the information relating to specification describing items as a data base.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a specification creation support device that provides information necessary for creating specifications used to create computer programs and the like.

[Prior Art] A computer program is created according to the description in a specification document.

Therefore, in order to develop high quality programs.

It is desirable that the contents of the specifications are clear and have no excess or deficiency).

However, in conventional specifications, each ministry in charge of creating the specifications determined the items to be written, the content to be written, and the order in which they should be written at the individual level, resulting in omissions and duplications of content, leading to program errors. In recent years, efforts have been made to standardize specifications, and it has become necessary to establish standards for creating them. However, this is only a policy, and the detailed description is often left up to two individuals.

On the other hand, for those who create specifications, it takes a lot of effort and time to create them through trial and error.

[Summary of the Invention] This invention is an attempt to improve these conventional problems, and it is possible to select and output items necessary for a specification under certain conditions from specification description items created in a database. This paper proposes a specification creation support device that supports a top-down specification creation method.

[Embodiments of the invention] The present invention will be explained in detail below using FIGS. 1 to 4.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure (11 is an electronic computer, which includes a central processing unit (CP), a main memory (MM), and an input/output channel (
an). (2) is for electronic computers.

an input device for inputting information necessary for processing; (3) an output device for outputting processing results; (4) a first auxiliary storage device for storing information such as specification description items; (5
) to (6) are the second
~Third auxiliary storage device.

FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the overall configuration of the present invention.

In the figure, (2) is an input device, (4) is a first auxiliary storage device, (7) is connected to the input device (2) by signal lines L1 to L4, and is connected to the first auxiliary storage device (4). ) is a specification document creation support method that also receives input from The specification creation support means (7) uses the signal input from the input device (2) and the specification creation information stored in the first auxiliary storage device (4) as input information, and inputs the information from the input device (2). performs calculations on the specification creation information according to the signals, and stores the intermediate results in the second and third auxiliary storage devices (5) and (6),
The final results are included in the specifications.

Output to the output device (3).

Further, Ll is a signal representing the specification level, H2 is a signal representing the project name, and H3 and H4 are signals representing specification creation conditions.

By the way, there are a wide variety of items to be written in the specifications, and nine items include the level of the specifications, the project, and the target.

It varies depending on the destination etc. Therefore, managing them all at once is almost impossible with only nine people.

By having information regarding these specification description items as a database, the present invention performs simple calculations on the information to determine what items to write and how to create specifications under certain conditions. It is characterized by being able to provide information to the user.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. Figure 3 is written in the main memory (MM) of Figure 1.
3 is a flowchart illustrating a specification creation support means that is intended.

First, in this embodiment, a specification level signal (Ll) and a project name signal (H2) are input as item selection data from the input device (2). (dl) In this embodiment, it is assumed that Sl is input as the former and P2 is input as the latter.

(Hl) and (H2) in Fig. 4 are stored on the first auxiliary storage device.
Data related to specification description items represented by are stored. Figure 4 (Hl) shows specification items and specification levels.

This shows the relationship between project names (hereinafter referred to as Table 1).

), the first auxiliary storage device. (4) It is stored as an image of this table above. Similarly, (H2) is a table (hereinafter referred to as Table 2) representing the relationship between specification items and the handling of each item under certain conditions.
) is stored on.

In step (d2), the first
Calculation 1 is performed to select only those items that match the specification level (Ll) and project name (H2) input in step (dl) from the table (Fig. 4 (Ht)).

The results are stored in the second auxiliary storage device (5). Fourth
Figure (H6) is a table representing the results of operation 1 (hereinafter referred to as the third table), and an image of this table is stored in the second auxiliary storage device (5).

Next, in step (d6), condition information is input from the input device (2). In this example, first, a signal (H
6) Enter. Then, in step (d4), it is determined that the input of condition information is not completed yet, and the process returns to step (d3). Then, a signal (H4) representing condition 2 is input (d3). In the next step (d4), it is determined that the input of condition information has ended, and the process proceeds to step (d5).

In step (d5), all the condition information (H3) and (H4) input in step (d6) (in this example, condition 1
and condition n have been input. ), Table 2 (H2)
and Table 3 (H6), from Table 2 (H2) to Table 3.
Calculation 2 is performed to extract only the items in table (H3) and the data corresponding to condition 11 condition n. The result is shown in Figure 4 (
H4) is the content of the table (hereinafter referred to as Table 4),
This is stored in the third auxiliary storage device (6).

Then, in step (d6), the third auxiliary storage device (6)
The above 4th table (Figure 4 (j (4)) is input, it is formatted into a format that is easy for the user to use, and in step (d7) it is output to the output device (3) and the process ends.-[ [Effects of the Invention] As described above, by using data related to specification creation created in a database by the present invention, data on items necessary for specification creation can be obtained by simply inputting simple data. Therefore, it is possible to prevent excess or deficiency in the content of specifications when creating specifications, and to create standardized specifications.In addition, designers are given items to investigate and consider in advance. So.

You can proceed with your design work without wasting your time.

2. In this embodiment, for convenience of explanation, the first auxiliary storage device is used as the first storage means, and the second and third auxiliary storage devices are used as the second storage means, but the hardware Depending on how it is configured, the second. It is also possible to use only one third auxiliary storage device. It is also possible to use the first and second storage means by dividing the area on the main storage device.
