The present invention relates to a method and system for providing a web-based user creative application, and more particularly, to a web-based user creative application that enables a user to freely modify and develop a predetermined software form and structure as he or she desires. A method and system are provided.

As the office environment becomes more complex and information technology develops, a number of softwares suitable for the office environment have been developed and marketed.

For example, a small patent office purchases and utilizes a patent management program in the form of ready-to-wear rather than directly creating an application for application management, etc. (because it does not have the ability to program itself). many. One example of such a management program is shown in FIG.

As shown, the management program includes a number of data account items (e.g., "class", "rights", "application", "receipt number", etc.), and the user simply corresponds to the data corresponding to the account. Just insert it in the part and save it. This type of program is the form that all programs take. That is, all commercially available programs have a predetermined data structure, and this data structure cannot be easily modified / modified by the user.

Apart from personal software such as Word and spreadsheet, the management program shown in FIG. 1 or the accounting management program recently used by small companies and tax offices also have a data structure that cannot be modified by the user. Therefore, various problems are caused.

That is, patent management programs and accounting management programs are used in various offices, companies, and the like having various characteristics. At this time, each office may need a data account item that fits the characteristics of their office, the conventional software has a problem that it is difficult to reflect this.

Specifically, in the form shown in FIG. 1, the patent office A may not need an "access number", "grade" account at all. In addition, an account type of "inventor", "applicant", or "client" may be desired instead of an account type of "client", "applicant", and "inventor".

However, these programs are not only available in Office A, but also in many other offices, and the program supplier cannot modify / modify the program structure for Office A only. If you make these modifications / revisions, you will have to do the same for all other offices, which is virtually impossible.

In addition, the accounting management program, which is widely used in recent years, provides an account type that can be commonly used in all companies and tax offices, and the user cannot easily modify the account type for each user.

The modification of the program structure is actually a task that only a programming expert can perform, and it can be said that the modification of the software is impossible for ordinary users who are proficient in programming.

The present invention has been made to solve the problems of the prior art. One object of the present invention is to provide a method and system that, in conjunction with certain software, allows a user to conveniently modify / modify various data account items of the software.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide a method and system for enabling the sharing and sale of specific software created by a first user and thus performing a certain reward to the software creator.

In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, a method for providing a user-created application that allows a user to create / change / modify a predetermined software in the form of a data account item desired by the user based on a web server, The method comprises the steps of storing a database of various data account items associated with one or more software for each software, and storing each data account associated with the software as the user selects a predetermined software. Displaying an item, creating a database table script corresponding to the user's selection and editing of the displayed data account item, compiling the created script, and compiling the compiled software four Characterized in that it comprises the step of transmitting to install the user's terminal.

According to the invention, the database table script writing step may include configuring a database table in which the data account items selected by the user are edited in a form and structure desired by the user.

In one embodiment, each data account item may be displayed in the form of an icon reflecting the contents of that account.

Preferably, the data account item stored in the database may include a data account item created by a user.

In one embodiment, the method may further include storing the compiled and completed software in a separate database for sharing by a third user.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, when the shared software is downloaded and used by a third user, the method may further include performing a predetermined compensation process for the user who registered the software.

According to another aspect of the present invention, a system for providing a user-created application that allows a user to create / modify / modify predetermined software in the form of an account desired by the user based on the Internet is provided. The application server provides a service that allows a user accessing the system to directly create / modify / modify an application or a database, and stores data created / modified / modified by the user accessing the system or stored in an application module. And a database server for managing and uploading the software developed by the user, and a shared content server for sharing by third parties, wherein the application server allows the user to create software having a predetermined data structure. Module And a designer module that allows a user accessing the system to edit a database table script including data account items related to a given software, and a script compiler for analyzing and compiling scripts written through the designer module.

The objects, features and effects of the present invention described above will be more clearly understood from the preferred embodiments of the present invention described below. In the following description, descriptions of technical configurations and features known in the art will be omitted, and a person skilled in the art will nevertheless easily understand the configuration without any description.

Throughout the description of the invention, including the claims, the term "data account item" refers to various items associated with a given software, which may be referred to as a database. For example, the software shown in FIG. 1 includes items such as "application date", "application number", "request request date", "client", and "applicant", each of which includes a "data account item" And the user can write data related to the item in the set "data account item". In addition, in the case of accounting-related software, various items related to accounting are displayed to allow a user to enter related data, each of which constitutes a data account item in the present invention. Since the data account items are configured in the default form, the user cannot change or modify the form or arrangement of the data account items in a desired form, and the present invention can change / modify / create the data account items. In this way, the user can utilize any software composed of his or her own data account items.

2 illustrates the overall structure of using a user-created application provision (UCA) system 100 in accordance with the present invention. As shown, the present invention is carried out according to a conventional method using the Internet. That is, the user can use the predetermined service provided in accordance with the present invention by connecting the terminal 10 owned by him to the UCA system 100 via the Internet.

Referring to Figure 3, the detailed structure of the UCA system 100 will be described.

As shown in FIG. 3, the UCA system 100 largely includes an application server 120, a database server 140, and a shared content server 160.

The application server 120 is a server that provides a service that allows a user to directly develop, modify, and execute an application or database after the user accesses the UCA system.

More specifically, the application server 120 includes a designer module 122, a script compiler module 124, and an application module 126.

First, the designer module 122 is a program module for making software desired by a user, and manages all functions to create / edit each data account item associated with a predetermined program.

As shown, the designer module 122 may include a table designer unit 122a, a screen designer unit 122b, and a print designer unit 122c. The table designer unit 122a may be connected to the database server 140. By interworking, the user can create a database table and modify / change or create each data account item constituting the table. For example, in the conventional management program shown in Fig. 1, the entirety of each data account item constitutes one database table. Each of these data account items is stored in the database server 140 and can be utilized by the user. The user can edit the data account items constituting the desired database table through the table designer 122a. Alternatively, you can create a database table. For example, in the database table of the type shown in FIG. 1, when a data account item called "reception number" is not included in the table, the data account item should not be selected, and new data called "client telephone number". If you want to add an account item to a table, select (or create) the data account item and add it.

The screen designer 122b supports how a user who accesses the UCA system 100 configures a database table for each data account item displayed, and generates a screen script that can be implemented by the application module 126. Play a role.

That is, as shown in Fig. 1, software such as a schedule management program, an accounting management program, etc. is composed of a table consisting of several rows and columns, a predetermined data account item is set in each cell consisting of rows and columns, and the user The data corresponding to the data account item will be entered. According to the related art, such a table form is fixed, that is, provided to the user in a form that the user cannot change / modify. According to the present invention, there is provided a service that can modify such a table form to a user desired form, the screen designer 122b is free to easily configure and change each data account items arranged in the table as desired by the user / It is responsible for supporting the addition. In detail, the screen designer 122b may include data stored in the database server 140, that is, data created / modified / modified by a user connected to the system or various data stored through an application program, that is, associated with various software. Among the data account items, the user can configure the data account item selected by the table designer 122a in a table form desired by the user. The user can configure a database table script including the data account items in a desired form by adding, changing, or moving an icon of each displayed data account item.

For example, in the management program shown in FIG. 1, the user selects the applicant and inventor data account items except for the client through the table designer 122a to configure the table, and through the screen designer 122b, the "inventor". You can construct a table in the order of "applicant". In addition, if you want to add a data account item that is not in the database table, for example, "client telephone number", create (or select) a data account item called "client telephone number" through the table designer 122a, After storing in association, the screen designer 122b may construct a database table that includes a "client telephone number" data account item instead of a "client" data account item.

The print designer 122c plays a role of supporting the print form when the printed material is to be applied by applying the data created through the screen designer 122b to a separate print form. For example, if there is no change in the database table itself, but the item for printing, rather than inserting data such as a payment line, is required to display a payment line in a different format for each business site, the print designer 122c may be used. You can change to the payment line of your choice.

As described above, the script created by the designer module 122 according to the user's selection is not a complete form of software in itself. In other words, the user only writes the database table script of the type desired through the designer module, and each data account item included in the script does not functionally correlate to constitute one completed software. In other words, a process of compiling the table script is required, which is assisted by the script compiler 122b and the application module 122c. That is, when a user executes a predetermined command on a database table created by the user, the script compiler 122b analyzes and compiles the script created by the designer module to provide a completed software having a structure of a desired form. . At this time, the application module 122c executes the script generated through the designer module 122 through the program installed therein on the web browser using the compiler.

Through the series of processes described above, the completed software is provided to meet the needs of the user, and the user may download and install the software on his terminal 10.

As such, according to the service provided according to the present invention, unlike the prior art provided to the user in a form in which the program structure or form cannot be modified / modified, the user accessing the UCA system 100 is provided in the system. It is possible to freely change the structure of the software and the like for various purposes in accordance with the desired purpose of the various software, and in particular, it is possible to construct the software in a form suitable for the purpose of the work.

The database server 140 is a server that stores / manages data created / modified / modified by a user who is connected to the UCA system 100 or various data stored through an application module. Provides related database tables.

The shared content server 160 is a server for uploading and storing software developed by a user, and includes a shared content database 162 for storing the software. The software uploaded by the user can be shared by a third user, and the third user can download the software stored in the database and install it in his terminal. That is, for example, in the case where user A generates a management program of a type suitable for his work through the above process and stores it in the database 162, user B in the same industry also needs such a management program. You can do it. Therefore, in some cases, user B wants to save time and effort by utilizing the software uploaded by user A, instead of building his own software. In such a case, user B can download the predetermined software stored in the database 162 and install it in his terminal at a predetermined cost. Thus, the predetermined software is shared by a third user. When used, the compensation processing module 164 performs predetermined compensation processing on the user who uploaded the software. The manner of such compensation processing need not be specifically limited, and when the uploaded software is utilized by a third user, it is only necessary to perform a predetermined compensation processing on the uploaded user.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating a series of processes in which a user accessing the UCA system 100 constructs, downloads, and installs software having a desired form and structure on a web according to an embodiment of the present invention. have.

As shown in the figure, various data account items related to specific software to be serviced are registered in the UCA system 100 (S10). The registered and stored data account item also includes a data account item created by the user. The user accesses the system 100 having the above configuration through his terminal 10 and selects specific software desired by the user (S20).

According to the selection, the UCA system 100 displays various data account items related to the selected software (S30). In this case, in order for the user to more easily identify each data account item, the UCA system 100 preferably displays each data account item in the form of an icon reflecting the account contents.

Among the displayed data account items, the user selects a table through the table designer 122a, creates or selects an icon to be included in the table, and selects an icon in a desired form through the screen designer 122c. Arranged to form a database table of a predetermined form and structure. Accordingly, the design module 122 of the UCA system 100 creates a predetermined database table script in response to the user's selection (S40).

Next, the script compiler module 124 analyzes the compiled script and compiles it (S50) so that the software has a form and structure desired by the user, and each data account item is functionally correlated and executable. Complete (S60). The completed software is downloaded and installed to the user's terminal (S70). The user can perform a predetermined task using a database table configured in a desired form using the installed software.

On the other hand, the completed software can be useful not only for the creator of the software, but also for a third user. Accordingly, the user may upload the creative application to the shared content server 160 of the UCA system 100 so that a third party may share and use the creative application (S80).

Thereafter, a third user accesses the UCA system 100 (S90) and registers with the shared content server 160 instead of building a specific software having a structure and a form desired only by the above-described process. If you want to use the creative application, you only need to download and install the application on their terminal (S100). In relation to this, a predetermined reward is made through a separate compensation process for the user who registered the downloaded application (S110).

As mentioned above, although this invention was demonstrated with reference to the preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that this invention is not limited to the said embodiment. In particular, each component of the UCA system is classified for convenience, and may be variously modified without being limited to the above embodiments. For example, each server may be configured to be included in one server. In addition, each component may be selectively included as needed, other components may be added, or may be implemented in the form of a separate server. As such, the above embodiments may be variously modified and modified without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention as set forth in the claims below, and the invention is limited only by the claims.

As described above, according to the present invention, unlike the existing software in which the data structure is fixed, the basic structure related to the function of the software is built on the web server, and the user who accesses the system instead wants to By providing a service to modify / change / create the software in the form, the user can utilize his / her own software.
