Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a recording medium storing a computer power saving management program,

The present invention relates to a computer readable recording medium on which a PC power saving management program for managing the power supply of a user PC and saving electricity and PC management is recorded.

In a company, a PC used for business is wasted electricity when not going out for a long time or when turning off the power at work. Therefore, when not in use, the user PC is automatically turned off or switched to the power saving mode after a specified time, thereby saving electricity. Prevent the PC from wasting power by shutting down the power or power mode after the user is away or leaving the office.

In addition, recent PCs support the message transfer function such as lock and termination by linking the status of PC with mobile. If the network is connected, the user PC program manages the PC by receiving the information set as the web service, and also manages the PC with the smart phone. If the network connection is not established, the power is turned off after the default time.

Such conventional automatic PC power management can be configured in the form of a program installed on the user's PC, or provided as one of the basic functions of the OS, and automatically turned on when the condition set by the individual user is set on the user's PC . For example, if the user sets the PC to stop operating at 6:00 PM and continuously for 1 hour or more after the PC is not in use, when the condition is reached, the automatic management program turns off the power to the PC and stops the operation Of consumption. Accordingly, even if the user leaves the home after leaving the home because the user is away from home, the PC automatically cuts off the power supply when the set condition is met, thereby preventing unnecessary power consumption.

However, in this conventional method, since the power supply is cut off only in accordance with the state in which each user directly sets it, the power saving effect by the power supply cutoff is managed depending on the act of setting individual users. Therefore, this method is disadvantageous in that it is impossible to perform uniform, systematic, and forcible management on the side of transferring, because it presupposes that individual employees follow the power saving instruction according to the policy of the whole company, for example.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a power saving management system for a user, And to provide a method for power saving management.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a computer-readable recording medium storing a PC power save management program, the program comprising a window service module, an update confirmation module, and a PC control module, The service module executes the update check module when the PC is booted, and checks whether the PC control module executed by the update check module operates normally when the PC is booted. If the PC control module is not executed, Executing the module to execute the PC control module, the update confirmation module performs the update by checking the version of the Windows service module and the PC control module, and executes the PC control module, The control module is responsible for communicating with the server and controlling the PC state. Haenghadoe, based on the common environment information, including user information and the end time of registration to the server containing the action time for the PC, we propose a recording medium, characterized in that to terminate the operation of the PC.

The Windows service module is registered in the safe mode registry.

If there is no directory required for the operation of the PC control module, the update confirmation module creates the directory and executes the PC control module.

The PC control module transmits the user information to the server.

The common environment information may include at least a part of an end time set for each user, an end waiting time, an alarm window output time, and a waiting time after rebooting.

The PC control module synchronizes the time of the server with the time of the user PC, and transmits the activity status of the user PC to the server.

According to the present invention, it is possible to perform power saving management of a PC through input of user information according to special circumstances of each user, and PC power saving management according to a common environment setting in parallel. Assuming that the present invention is applied to public institutions, it is possible to calculate the electricity rate that can be saved based on the result of the power management state check for one week for one institution, and apply it to all public institutions (1.3 million) If it is blocked, it is expected to save about 18 billion won per year.

If there is no directory required for the operation of the PC control module 30, the update confirmation module 20 creates a directory. The update check module 20 checks the versions of the Windows service module 10 and the PC control module 30 and performs update when the versions are different. After executing the PC control module 30, the update confirmation module 20 is terminated.

3. The PC control module 30 is executed.

The PC control module 30 checks whether the user information is registered in the user PC, and if the user information is not registered, the user moves to the user registration window for registering the user information in such a manner that the balloon help is displayed. Here, the user information includes user PC activity time. The activity time is a time period during which the user uses the PC, and when the time outside the activity time comes, the entire operation of the PC 100 is terminated. For example, if the activity time is set from 9:00 am to 6:00 pm, if the 6:00 pm time comes, the operation of the PC 100 is checked to see if the PC 100 is on. This user information is transferred from the user PC 100 to the server 200 and stored in the user information DB of the server.

Also, the PC control module 30 receives the common environment information set in the server 200 and applies it to the PC control module 30. Common environment information includes information such as end time, end wait time, warning window output time, and wait time after reboot. The user information input by the user through the PC 100 may be handled as a part of the common environment information. The PC control module 30 receives and re-applies the end time which is set on a user-by-user basis or uniformly set for all users to the PC control module 30.

Also, if the normal password is input, the PC control module 30 is stopped. If the PC is set as a server, it should not be terminated. Therefore, if it is terminated, the execution of the Windows service module 10 is confirmed and restarted.

The PC control module 30 synchronizes the time of the operation server with the time of the user PC 100 and transmits the activity status of the user PC 100 to the server 200. [ This is used as data for confirming that the PC is currently shut down.

4. The user of the PC control module 30 supports multiple PC management.

As described above, if the user information is not registered at the time of execution of the PC control module 30, the balloon help is displayed and moved to the registration window. Since the user registration registers the user ID and the IP of the PC, the user can input and manage the user ID in multiple PCs. Accordingly, the status and management of all the PCs logged in by the corresponding user ID can be performed. Also, it is possible to change the PC user information by supporting the user change function.

5. When PC control module 30 is running, it can receive event from server and control PC. The events that can be processed are as follows.

- Announcement Pop-up window is executed and output.

- Launch a payment window to extend the PC shutdown time.

- Execute an event to update the PC control module (30).
