112: receiving interface 114: means for generating request information

116: outgoing interface 120: SMS sending server

According to the present invention, even if a terminal does not have a function for sending a dedicated SMS, when the SMS relay server according to the present invention transmits data and transmits data, the SMS relay server generates a dedicated SMS transmission request information and transmits it to an SMS sending server, thereby sending the SMS server. The present invention relates to a dedicated SMS sending system and a dedicated SMS sending method for sending a dedicated SMS to a receiving terminal and accordingly executing the corresponding application on the receiving terminal.

In general, when a network game is executed in a terminal such as a mobile phone, game participants access a game server located on a network, and the game participant accesses the game server with another game participant who accesses the same game server within the connected time. I'm making this happen. At this time, the game progress is made among game participants connected to a specific small group (located in the game room) among a plurality of game participants connected to the game server.

However, this type of game progression has a problem in that when the connection between the terminal and the game server is disconnected, or when the game participant leaves the small group for another task, the game progress is stopped at the same time.

In addition, in the case of such a game progress method, in order for a game participant to play a game with his or her opponent, he or she must inform the other party of the intention to connect to the other party through the means of 'XX game room opened on the OO game server.' I have a discomfort.

In addition, a general network game is a structure in which a game progresses only when the game server is always connected to a game server. For example, when a game participant moves a terminal while a game participant has a poor communication situation, the intention is There was a problem such as not stopping the game.

In order to solve this problem, recently, programs such as a game are executed by using a short message service (SMS), but methods that can execute the program regardless of whether a terminal is connected have been planned. However, all of these improvements have to use a dedicated SMS associated with the execution of the program, which makes it difficult to use the terminal itself without a function of transmitting a dedicated SMS. In particular, a technique for receiving a dedicated SMS and automatically executing a program is a general trend, but a technique for transmitting a dedicated SMS on a terminal has recently emerged and relatively few terminals have it as a function. Accordingly, there is a problem in that a technology for transmitting a dedicated SMS is commercialized and takes too much time until a new terminal is manufactured.

Accordingly, a dedicated SMS transmission model for enabling an execution of an application using the dedicated SMS in a counterpart terminal by transmitting a dedicated SMS to the counterpart terminal without having a terminal having a function of transmitting a dedicated SMS, is also possible. It is required.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, even if the terminal does not have a function of sending a dedicated SMS to access the SMS relay server according to the present invention to transmit data to generate the SMS transmission request information from the SMS relay server In order to provide a dedicated SMS sending system and a dedicated SMS sending method for sending a dedicated SMS from the SMS sending server to a receiving terminal and executing a corresponding application in the receiving terminal accordingly.

In addition, the present invention provides a dedicated SMS sending system capable of performing data transfer between terminals by using asynchronous dedicated SMS to perform other tasks in parallel during the data transmission, and also to re-run the application later even if the application is interrupted. An object of the present invention is to provide a dedicated SMS sending method.

In addition, the present invention provides a dedicated SMS sending system and a dedicated SMS sending method that can process a related application quickly and consistently by using a plurality of dedicated SMSs identified by the same attribute even if data having significant data lengths are transmitted. It aims to provide.

Dedicated SMS sending system for achieving the above object, SMS relay server for receiving data from the connected transmission terminal, generates a dedicated SMS transmission request information associated with the received data to a predetermined SMS sending server, and the Receiving the dedicated SMS transmission request information from the SMS relay server, and includes a SMS sending server for sending a dedicated SMS to the receiving terminal, the receiving terminal is characterized in that the application is automatically executed in conjunction with the reception of the dedicated SMS. do.

In addition, as an implementation method for achieving the above object, a dedicated SMS sending method using a dedicated SMS sending system including an SMS relay server and an SMS sending server, receives data from a transmitting terminal connected to the SMS relay server, and receives the received message. Generating and transmitting the dedicated SMS transmission request information associated with the received data to a predetermined SMS sending server, receiving the dedicated SMS transmission request information from the SMS relay server at the SMS sending server, and sending the dedicated SMS to the receiving terminal; And executing the application automatically in the receiving terminal receiving the dedicated SMS.

Hereinafter, a dedicated SMS sending system and a method of sending a dedicated SMS will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

The term "dedicated SMS" continuously used herein refers to a control command in the form of a message that executes a program such as a game program, a multimedia driving program, etc. in a specific terminal, apart from the function of a general short message service (SMS). Can be. The receiving terminal receiving the dedicated SMS can automatically execute the program in conjunction with the reception of the dedicated SMS without maintaining the connection to the network for executing the program.

In particular, the dedicated SMS sending system of the present invention can directly transmit a dedicated SMS to a receiving terminal by an SMS relay server that is capable of sending a dedicated SMS regardless of the specification of the terminal, that is, whether or not there is a sending function of the dedicated SMS. have. Accordingly, even if the existing terminal is not replaced with a terminal having a dedicated SMS function to transmit a dedicated SMS, it may be possible to transmit a dedicated SMS for executing the application.

In addition, due to the characteristics of the dedicated SMS in the form of a message, a transmission terminal for transmitting a dedicated SMS and an execution of an independent application in a receiving terminal for receiving a dedicated SMS even though the connection with the dedicated SMS sending system or the receiving terminal of the present invention is not maintained continuously. This is possible.

That is, if the existing method of performing common program tasks among a plurality of game participants is a synchronous method of exchanging data in real time by simultaneously connecting game participants to a server, the method of performing common program tasks using dedicated SMS in the present invention It is an asynchronous network structure that allows one-way transfer of data by sending a dedicated SMS by allowing only necessary users to access the server.

1 is a view showing a specific configuration of a dedicated SMS sending system according to the present invention.

Dedicated SMS sending system 100 includes an SMS relay server 110 that is a relay device for the transmission of a dedicated SMS, the dedicated SMS associated with the execution of the application even by the transmitting terminal 130 does not have a dedicated SMS transmission function It serves to transmit.

To this end, the dedicated SMS sending system 100 of the present invention includes an SMS relay server 110 and an SMS sending server 120.

First, the SMS relay server 110 receives data from the connected transmission terminal 130, generates a dedicated SMS transmission request information associated with the received data, and transmits it to a predetermined SMS sending server 120. That is, the SMS relay server 110 serves to request the SMS sending server 120 in place of the transmitting terminal 130 for the transmission of the dedicated SMS. At this time, the transmitting terminal 130 executes a predetermined program (for example, a game program, etc.) therein, and an SMS relay server (eg, game progress data) connected to the data (for example, game progress data) generated according to the execution of the program by wire or wirelessly ( 110).

The transmitting terminal 130 generates the information about the program environment changed according to the program execution in the transmitting terminal 130 as data, and provides the changed data by providing the data to the receiving terminal 140 executing the same program. The environment is also shared to the receiving terminal 140.

For example, when user A bets a certain amount of money between user A of transmitting terminal 130 executing the same card game program and user B of receiving terminal 140, the transmitting terminal 130 changes the related program. By generating data about the environment, and transmitting the generated data to the receiving terminal 140 of the user B, the game partner, the changed game environment is shared between the two terminals.

However, since the data can be transmitted only under the condition that a plurality of terminals executing the same program are connected to each other, it may not be possible to transmit data when any one terminal leaves the connection. Accordingly, the SMS relay server 110 of the present invention is an asynchronous dedicated SMS for achieving the object of the present invention that the data transmission to the receiving terminal 140 is substantially made irrespective of the connection between the terminals. By sending a request to the SMS sending server 120, the application corresponding to the data can be executed in the receiving terminal 140 receiving the dedicated SMS.

To this end, the SMS relay server 110 may include a receiving interface 112, a request information generation step 114, and an outgoing interface 116.

The reception interface 112 serves to connect with the transmitting terminal 130 through a wired connection or a wireless connection. That is, the reception interface 112 is connected to the transmission terminal 130 executing a predetermined program by WEB or WAP, and receives the data generated by the transmission terminal 130 after the connection.

When the request information generating means 114 receives data from the connected transmitting terminal 130, the request information generating means 114 generates predetermined dedicated SMS transmission request information. Here, the dedicated SMS transmission request information is to induce a dedicated SMS corresponding to the received data to be sent from the SMS sending server 120. For example, as in the above example, when the data related to 'thousand bets' is received from the transmitting terminal 130 in the poker game, the request information generating unit 114 generates dedicated SMS transmission request information related to the 'thousand bets'. can do.

The outgoing interface 116 transmits the generated dedicated SMS transmission request information to the SMS sending server 120 associated with the sending of the dedicated SMS. That is, the originating interface 116 confirms the address on the network of the SMS sending server 120 that sends the dedicated SMS, and serves to deliver the SMS transmission request information to the confirmed address. In the above-described example, the originating interface 116 may transmit the dedicated SMS transmission request information to the network address of the SMS sending server 120 capable of sending a dedicated SMS related to 'thousand bets'.

Therefore, according to the SMS relay server 110 of the present invention, even if a terminal does not have a function of sending a dedicated SMS, SMS sending server by generating a dedicated SMS transmission request information related to the sending of the dedicated SMS to the SMS sending server 120 At 120, it is possible to induce the sending of the dedicated SMS associated with the data generated in accordance with the execution of the program.

In addition, the SMS relay server 110 may transmit the result information associated with the sending of the dedicated SMS to the transmitting terminal 130. That is, the SMS relay server 110 determines whether the dedicated SMS is stably transmitted from the SMS sending server 120 to the receiving terminal 140 based on the dedicated SMS transmission request information and transmits it to the transmitting terminal 130 as result information. Can be.

For example, the SMS sending server 120 transmits a predetermined Sync signal to the receiving terminal 140 together with the dedicated SMS, and the receiving terminal 140 normally receives the dedicated SMS from the receiving terminal 140 to the Sync signal. The 'connection confirmation' generated in response may be notified to the SMS relay server 110. Thereafter, the SMS relay server 110 may notify the transmitting terminal 130 that the dedicated SMS has been successfully transmitted by generating the result information related to the notified 'access confirmation' and transmitting the result information to the transmitting terminal 130.

On the other hand, the receiving terminal 140 that does not receive or abnormally receive the dedicated SMS may generate a 'non-connection confirmation' in response to the Sync (sync) signal, SMS sending server 120 is the 'non-connection' Confirmation may be notified to the SMS relay server 110. Thereafter, the SMS relay server 110 may generate the result information related to the notified 'non-access confirmation' and transmit the result information to the transmitting terminal 130 to inform the transmitting terminal 130 that the transmission of the dedicated SMS has failed.

In addition, the SMS relay server 110 may generate an ON / OFF state information of the receiving terminal 140 by connecting to a mobile location operator's Home Location Register (HLR) or VLR (Visitor Location Register). That is, the SMS relay server 110 can check whether the receiving terminal 140 is currently turned on or off by using the HLR / VLR and the customer database held by the mobile communication provider, and checks the ON / OFF status information related thereto. It may be included in the result information and transmitted to the transmitting terminal 130.

In addition, the SMS relay server 110 performs a connection with the transmitting terminal 130 through a wired connection or a wireless connection, and when receiving data from the connected transmitting terminal 130, the wired connection or wireless to the transmitting terminal 130 Allow disconnection of the connection. That is, the SMS relay server 110 does not force the transmission terminal 130 that transmits data to maintain the continuous connection, although the transmission terminal 130 is the dedicated SMS sending system 100 or the receiving terminal 140 of the present invention. Allows you to send a dedicated SMS even if you are not connected to it. Accordingly, the user A of the transmitting terminal 130 that has transmitted the data will perform parallel processing on the transmitting terminal 130 with another program (for example, executing a program such as a word or telephony) after the data is transmitted. Can be.

SMS sending server 120 receives the dedicated SMS transmission request information from the SMS relay server 110, and serves to send a dedicated SMS to the receiving terminal 140. Here, the dedicated SMS is related to the automatic execution of the application in the receiving terminal 140, and the receiving terminal 140 receiving the dedicated SMS executes the application according to the instruction details included in the dedicated SMS. The program environment in the receiving terminal 140 that executes the application is identical to the program environment of the transmitting terminal 130, and according to the present invention, a common program can be executed among a plurality of terminals.

In particular, the SMS sending server 120 is irrelevant whether the sending terminal 130 and the receiving interface 112 (dedicated SMS sending system 100) are connected or whether the sending terminal 130 and the receiving terminal 140 are connected. The dedicated SMS can be sent to the receiving terminal 140 according to the reception of the dedicated SMS transmission request information.

The transmitting terminal 130 installs a program to be executed and generates data related to a changed program environment according to the execution of the program. The program may be executed in common with the receiving terminal 140, and the transmitting terminal 130 generates related data so that the program environment changed according to the execution of the program may be applied to the receiving terminal 140 in the same manner. Transmit to 140. As described above, data transmission has a restriction condition in which the transmission terminal 130 and the reception terminal 140 must maintain a connection state, and the dedicated SMS sending system 100 of the present invention transmits to overcome the limitation condition. In response to the data received from the terminal 130, a predetermined dedicated SMS is transmitted to the receiving terminal 140.

The receiving terminal 140 installs a program to be executed in common with the transmitting terminal 130, and executes the application according to the reception of the dedicated SMS from the SMS sending server 120 to match the program environment with that of the transmitting terminal 130. . In addition, the receiving terminal 140 does not need to maintain a continuous connection with the dedicated SMS sending system 100 of the present invention so that the connection is made only when receiving the dedicated SMS so that the user B of the receiving terminal 140 executes the program. Allows you to do other tasks in parallel as you run.

In particular, the receiving terminal 140 includes a state storage unit 142 for storing state information related to the automatic execution of the application, and records information about the interruption of the automatic execution as the state information. That is, the receiving terminal 140 executes the application based on the received dedicated SMS. For example, when the receiving terminal 140 does not normally execute the application, such as when the terminal is powered off, the receiving terminal 140 stops executing the application automatically. Relevant information can be recorded as status information. For example, the receiving terminal 140 may store state information regarding a location, an interruption time, etc. of an application interrupted during execution, in the state storage unit 142.

Thereafter, when the application becomes an executable state in which the application can be executed again, the receiving terminal 140 continuously executes the application in which the automatic execution is stopped in the receiving terminal 140 by referring to the state information stored in the state storage unit 142. You can do that.

In addition, the receiving terminal 140 may further include a data storage unit 144 for storing the received dedicated SMS corresponding to the predetermined data identification information. Here, the data identification information is information for identifying the data that causes the generation of the dedicated SMS, and one data identification information may correspond to one data.

Such data identification information may correspond to each dedicated SMS generated by the SMS sending server 120, and the SMS sending server 120 may correspond to one data corresponding to the length of data received from the SMS relay server 110. One or more dedicated SMSs may be generated for each, and each may be assigned the same data identification information. The granting of the data identification information is for generating a plurality of dedicated SMSs and giving each dedicated SMS a unified attribute when the length of the data is considerable and cannot be processed by only one dedicated SMS.

That is, the receiving terminal 140 may automatically execute an application such as processing one message by integrating one or more dedicated SMSs having the same data identification information. Accordingly, the receiving terminal 140 may solve problems such as interruption of processing or delay of processing caused by simply executing an application associated with one dedicated SMS and waiting for the next dedicated SMS. In addition, even if the transmitting terminal 130 transmits a considerable length of data, the receiving terminal 130 can execute a related application without using a plurality of dedicated SMS.

In addition, the data storage unit 144 of the receiving terminal 140 records one or more of the data identification information, processing sequence information, associated dedicated SMS number information in order to manage a plurality of dedicated SMS generated in relation to one data. do. Hereinafter, the configuration of the receiving terminal 140 will be described with reference to FIG.

2 is a view showing an example of the configuration of a receiving terminal for receiving a dedicated SMS of the present invention.

The receiving terminal 140 is a device for receiving a dedicated SMS from the dedicated SMS sending system 100 of the present invention and executing an application related to the received dedicated SMS.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, the receiving terminal 140 includes a state storing unit 142 and a data storing unit 144 in an internal file system or a database system implemented using the file system. The application may be executed asynchronously regardless of whether the connection with the 130 is performed.

First, the state storage unit 142 stores information about the execution state of the application, the working environment state of the terminal, and the like as state information. That is, the state storage unit 142 stores the position at which the execution of the application is stopped or the time information at which the execution is stopped in the receiving terminal 140 as state information. Accordingly, by receiving the state information of the state storage unit 142, the receiving terminal 140 stops the execution of the application and restarts, or even if the power of the receiving terminal 140 is turned off and then on again, Allows an application that has been suspended to run continuously.

For example, the state storage unit 142 in FIG. 2 exemplarily stores the state information 'stage 1, 050701 18:35:24' for the application 'poker game' which has been suspended, and the receiving terminal 140 It can be recognized that the application 'poker game', which was previously executed by the status information, was stopped at position 'stage 1' at '07: 35: 24 PM on July 1, 2005 '. Thereafter, when the application becomes an executable state in which the application can be executed, the reception terminal 140 refers to the state information at the position where the execution was stopped most recently (July 1, 2005 6:35:24 pm). In 1, the application 'poker game' can be executed continuously.

In addition, the data storage unit 144 may store a dedicated SMS received from the SMS sending server 120, and may manage the dedicated SMS based on data related to the origination of the dedicated SMS. In particular, the data storage unit 144 may collectively manage a plurality of dedicated SMSs generated by one data having a long data length as the same data identification information, and the receiving terminal 140 may manage an application by the plurality of dedicated SMSs. Even in the case of execution, processing interruption can be eliminated and the processing time can be significantly reduced.

The data storage unit 144 in FIG. 2 records 'data identification information' and 'processing sequence number information' for the received dedicated SMS, and the number of dedicated dedicated SMSs included in the same data identification information is 'number of associated dedicated SMS'. Record as 'information'. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the data storage unit 144 records three dedicated SMSs having the same data identification information 'XD001' related to the data 'money bet', and the receiving terminal 140 identifies the same data. Three dedicated SMSs related to the information 'XD001' can be integrated and treated as one dedicated SMS. Application execution in the receiving terminal 140 for the integrated dedicated SMS may be executed sequentially based on the processing sequence information.

3 is a diagram illustrating an example of sending a dedicated SMS according to the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 3, when the user A of the transmitting terminal 130 attempts to transmit data to the user B of the receiving terminal 140, the transmitting terminal 130 accesses the SMS relay server 110 to transmit data. The SMS relay server 110 transmits a dedicated SMS corresponding to the received data from the SMS sending server 120 to the receiving terminal 140. In this case, the SMS relay server 110 may transmit the dedicated SMS transmission request information corresponding to the received data to the SMS sending server 120.

Thereafter, the user A transmitting terminal 130 receives the result information transmitted from the SMS relay server 110 (information on whether or not the dedicated SMS has been stably transmitted to the receiving terminal 140), and then the SMS relay server 110. Disconnect from the connection. In addition, the receiving terminal 140 of the user B may automatically execute an application by receiving a dedicated SMS.

In this case, the SMS relay server 110 may be in the form of a WEB server or WAP server, or may be a server structure using a general thread. In addition, the SMS relay server 110 may be extended to check whether the receiving terminal 140 is turned on or off by connecting to the mobile carrier's HLR or VLR. In addition, the SMS relay server 110 can be extended to read the user information of the user B or the terminal information and the program information installed in the terminal to connect to the customer database of the mobile communication provider to provide to the user A.

Therefore, according to the present invention, due to the introduction of a device for sending a dedicated SMS instead, it may be possible to execute an asynchronous application via the actual SMS even by a terminal that does not have a dedicated SMS transmission function.

Hereinafter, the workflow of the dedicated SMS sending system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

Transmit (S410). This step (S410) receives the data generated by the transmitting terminal 130 to the SMS relay server 110 when the program environment changes according to program execution, and also corresponds to the data received by the SMS relay server 110 This is a process of transmitting the dedicated SMS transmission request information to the SMS sending server 120 so that the dedicated SMS can be sent to the receiving terminal 140.

In addition, the dedicated SMS sending system 100 receives the dedicated SMS transmission request information from the SMS relay server 110 in the SMS sending server 120, and sends the dedicated SMS to the receiving terminal 140 (S420). This step (S420) is a process of sending a dedicated SMS to induce application execution in the receiving terminal 140 to correspond to the changed program environment in the transmitting terminal 130. At this time, the receiving terminal 140 receiving the dedicated SMS automatically executes an application corresponding to the dedicated SMS (S425).

Next, the dedicated SMS sending system 100 transmits the result information associated with the dedicated SMS sending from the SMS relay server 110 to the transmitting terminal 130 (S430). This step (S430) is a process of determining whether the dedicated SMS is stably transmitted from the SMS sending server 120 to the receiving terminal 140 by the dedicated SMS transmission request information and transmitting the result to the transmitting terminal 130 as result information. . That is, the SMS relay server 110 checks whether the receiving terminal 140 can receive the current dedicated SMS, and if the receiving terminal 140 can receive the dedicated SMS, it will receive a 'connection confirmation'. If the status is not available, the transmission terminal 130 may be notified of the "non-connection confirmation" as the result information.
