In the abstraction storage system according to the present invention, the storage module 110 includes attribute information about at least one selected from the history and the size of the storage file, and the storage data management module 120 stores the attribute information Confirm and save the attribute information.

The abstraction storage system according to the present invention further includes a frequency information management module 150 for storing the frequency information of the search keywords set in the storage file of the local DB and generating and managing the frequency information .

The abstraction storage system according to the present invention will be described in more detail.

The abstraction storage system of the present embodiment makes it possible for a user to easily search for a storage file with a search keyword alone in a DB server as well as a general computer such as a desktop, a laptop, and a tablet PC.

To this end, the storage module 110 stores search keyword information for a search keyword set in the storage file to search for a storage file. Here, the search keyword of the search keyword information may be set as a keyword inputted or selected by the user. The search keyword information includes link information between a search keyword and a corresponding save file. When the user inputs an arbitrary search keyword to search for a storage file, the link information enables the stored file search module 140 to search for a storage file linked to the search keyword based on the link information. To this end, the storage data management module 120 generates a file ID linked with a search keyword when creating a search keyword of the save file, and links the save code of the save file managed by the OS 200 with the file ID.

Meanwhile, the storage module 110 may store information on at least one selected from the history and the size of the storage file in which the search keyword is set. The history relates to the date of creation of the storage file, the date of completion of the work, the date of last storage, the date of last printing, the total editing time, and the size is the size of the storage file, number of words, number of lines, And the like.

The storage data management module 120 generates and manages search keyword information and attribute information, which are stored data stored in the storage module 110. The storage data management module 120 generates a search keyword in an arbitrary storage file according to a user's command, generates link information linking the storage file and the search keyword, and updates the generated search keyword information. Also, the storage data management module 120 generates and manages attribute information on the history and size. For reference, the storage data management module 120 collects, generates, and updates information related to the time and the like by confirming execution of a storage file for which a search keyword is set. Also, the storage data management module 120 generates and updates the content of the attribute information by checking the update size after execution of the storage file in which the search keyword is set.

The keyword input module 130 outputs a related window according to a programmed procedure and transmits the input information to the storage data management module 120 so that the user can set a search keyword in the storage file. Also, the storage file stored in the local DB is searched through the OS 200 according to the link information generated by the storage data management module 120, the storage path of the storage file is confirmed, and the application 300, 300 ' 300 "; < / RTI > 300 or less).

The storage file search module 140 searches the storage file stored in the local DB based on the user's search keyword input to the keyword input module 130. [ Here, the local DB is a designated storage drive of the computer or a DB server of the network. When the user inputs a search keyword, the storage file search module 140 searches the file ID linked to the search keyword, searches the storage code of the OS 200 for the storage file based on the file ID, Storage path, and the like.

The frequency information management module 150 generates and manages frequency of use of keywords set by the user as search keywords. Accordingly, the user can check the type and the number of the keyword set by the user himself / herself, and can select a search keyword set subsequently by referring to the keyword.

FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing an embodiment of an abstraction storing method according to the present invention. FIGS. 3 to 8 illustrate a file storing process performed according to the abstraction storing method of FIG. 2 based on the abstraction storing system of FIG. .

S10; Target File Selection Step

The user creates or updates a new file using the application 300 installed in the computer. For reference, a file created using the application 300 may be a document file, an image file, a moving image file, etc. In this embodiment, a document file is exemplified.

As shown in FIG. 3, the document application 300 is executed to output the document window 10 and perform a document operation. A document file is created by the document operation, and the user clicks the menu to save the document file or to save it under another name. When the menu is clicked, a menu window 11 is output, and the user selects a 'save' menu.

The keyword input module 130 outputs the search keyword input window 20 to the abstraction storage system of this embodiment in cooperation with the application 300. [

The present embodiment is a method of inputting a search keyword when a user stores an original document file generated by executing the application 300, or in addition to executing the corresponding application of the abstraction storage system, The search keyword may be set one by one. In addition, the corresponding application of the abstraction storage system may be executed through the already created storage file. A detailed description of the other implementation is given below again.

S20; Steps to enter search keywords

The keyword input module 130 posts the 'selected keyword' field in which the user can input the search keyword in the input window 20 output previously. Subsequently, when the user inputs a specific keyword into the 'selected keyword' field, the keyword input module 130 transmits the keyword to the stored data management module 120.

The storage data management module 120 sets the keyword as a search keyword of the corresponding storage file and generates a file ID of the storage file and links the storage code of the OS 200 to the storage file. The storage data management module 120 generates search keyword information composed of a search keyword and link information of the storage file.

An embodiment in which a keyword is input to the input window 20 and a keyword inputted by the stored data management module 120 is set as a search keyword will be described in more detail.

The user inputs a keyword into the 'selected keyword' field of the input window 20. In this case, only one search keyword may be set in one storage file, but a plurality of search keywords may be set in one storage file. In other words, when a user searches for a storage file as a search keyword, the storage file may be searched with only one search keyword, or the corresponding storage file may be searched with one or more search keywords.

For this, the keyword input module 130 allows one or more keywords to be input into the 'selected keyword' field 22 of the input window 20, as shown in FIG. In this embodiment, keywords of Document, Plan, and Product are entered in the 'selected keyword' column (22) in a simple list.

Meanwhile, as shown in FIG. 4, the keyword input module 130 of the present embodiment can output one or more keywords so that the user can select a keyword. Here, the keywords that the keyword input module 130 outputs to the input window 20 may be randomly selected, or may be the frequency information received from the frequency information management module 150. Herein, the frequency information is a list in which the frequency of use of the search keywords currently registered in the storage module 110 is counted, and the frequency information is the frequency information received from the frequency information management module 150 by the keyword input module 130 In the list field 21 on the right side of the input window 20. Subsequently, the keyword input module 130 may post the keyword in the input window 20 so that the keyword of the posted search keyword can be easily confirmed and selected by the user. In this embodiment, the keyword input module 130 randomly publishes the keyword of the search keyword, and the keyword of the search keyword having high frequency information is easily noticed, and the font size is differentiated according to the ranking. For reference, the one or more keywords posted in the input window can be deleted by the user for arranging. To this end, the keyword input module 130 may add a 'x' mark 23 for keyword deletion to the keyword.

As shown in FIG. 5, the keyword input module 130 of the present embodiment can add a "+, -" mark 24 to a keyword to add a condition of the keyword inputted by the user. If the user directly selects a keyword, the keyword input module 130 can be set as a search keyword as a search combination meaning of 'or' such as Document, Plan, and Product. If the user selects a '+' 'May be set as a search keyword, and if the' - 'mark is selected, the keyword may be set as a search keyword as a search combination meaning of' not '. For example, to describe more specifically, if a user inputs Document, Plan, and Product in the 'Selection Keyword' column (22) and inputs security by selecting '+' Is retrieved. On the other hand, if you type any keyword with '-', you will not be able to search that file if you enter that keyword.

The storage data management module 120 stores the search keyword information in the storage module 110 according to the search keyword described above.

Meanwhile, the storage data management module 120 identifies at least one selected from the history and the size of the storage file. When the storage file is stored or updated in the local DB by the OS 200, the storage data management module 120 stores the creation date of the storage file, the job completion date, the last storage date, the last printing date, Time, and the like, and generates it as attribute information about the history of the corresponding storage file. When the storage file is stored or updated in the local DB by the OS 200, the storage data management module 120 checks the size of the storage file, the word count, the number of lines, the number of paragraphs, the number of slides, And generates attribute information about the size of the storage file. As described above, the attribute information of the storage file is created when the storage file is newly created or updated. The attribute information thus generated is stored in the storage module 110.

In the search keyword input step S20 of the present embodiment described above, the search keyword of the save file is newly generated. However, if a save file in which a search keyword is already set is selected, the 'selected keyword' 22), and the user can edit and edit the listed search keywords in the form of deleting or adding the search keywords.

S30; Stage file search phase

The storage file search module 140 allows a user to easily search a storage file by using only a search keyword. When the user executes the storage file search module 140 for this purpose, the storage file search module 140 outputs a search window 30 as shown in FIG. do. For reference, the execution of the storage file search module 140 may be performed by executing the abstract storage system program of the present embodiment, or may be performed by selecting a menu for opening a storage file from a menu of the application 300. [

The search window 30 outputs a search keyword input field 31. The user inputs a search keyword into the search keyword input field 31 and clicks a search keyword button. The storage file search module 140 confirms the keyword input in the search keyword input field 31 and confirms the storage file having the keyword as the search keyword from the OS 200 and posts it in the search box 32. [

Since there may be a plurality of storage files having the same keyword as the search keyword, as shown in FIG. 5, a plurality of storage files may be posted in the search box 32 as a list.

The search window 30 of this embodiment may include a list field 34 that is the same as the list field 21 included in the search keyword input window 20 so that a user can easily input a keyword, A keyword having a '×' mark 23 and a '+, -' mark 24 included in the keyword list 20 may be posted.

Then, the user can check the storage file to be searched while viewing the storage file information posted in the search box 32. The storage file search module 140 can search the storage file, And outputs the attribute information of the storage file to the attribute information output field 33 of the search window 30 once. As described above, the attribute information may be information on at least one selected from the history and the size of the storage file, and may be managed by the storage data management module 120 as shown in FIG. 7, The module 140 can search for and output to the attribute information output field 33 of the search window 30.

In addition, when the storage file is posted in the search box 32 of the search window 30, the storage file search module 140 of the present embodiment may display the last print output date of the storage file A creation date, a final editing date, and the like can be input to the search window 30. In the present embodiment, the time input field 35 is output in the form of a calendar, but it is also possible to directly input the date. When the user selects or inputs a specific date, the storage file search module 140 searches the attribute information of the storage module 110 and outputs a storage file belonging to the corresponding date to the search box 32, You can select the file you want to search from the file and execute it.

In addition, when a plurality of storage files are posted in the search box 32 of the search window 30, the storage file search module 140 of the present embodiment inputs the size of the storage file so that a desired storage file can be easily searched A size input field 36 can be displayed on the search window 30. In this embodiment, the size input column 36 posts the size of the storage file by dividing it into a range, and when the user selects one of them, the storage file search module 140 searches the attribute information of the storage module 110, To the search box 32, and the user can select and execute the storage file to be searched in the output storage file.

S50; Steps to run save file

When the user selects and double-clicks a storage file to be searched among the storage files posted in the search box 32 of the search window 30, the corresponding application 300 of the storage file operates and executes the storage file.

FIGS. 9 to 11 illustrate an image sequence of the file storage process according to the abstract storage method of FIG. 2 based on the abstract storage system of FIG.

This embodiment is another embodiment for selecting the target file to generate the search keyword information and outputting the search keyword input window 20 by the keyword input module 130 in the target file selection step S10.

First, the storage file is stored in the local DB according to a typical storage process of the application 300, and the OS 200 manages the file name and storage path of the storage file.

When the user saves the file as a storage file, the user clicks the storage file 30 with a mouse and outputs a selection window 31 as shown in FIG. As is well known, the selection window 31 constitutes a list of various menus that can manage the storage file 30. Subsequently, the user selects an 'attribute' menu in which the various information of the storage file 30 can be confirmed in the selection window 31. [

When the 'attribute' menu is selected in the selection window 31, the attribute window 40 is output as shown in FIG. In this embodiment, the menu tab 41 for executing the keyword input module 130 is configured in the property window 40. When the user selects the menu tab 41, the keyword input module 130 is executed, And outputs a search keyword input window 20. Since the function of the search keyword input window 20 has been described above, a detailed description of the search keyword input window 20 will be omitted here.

Through the above-described process, the user can select the storage file 30 already created and create or edit the search keyword.
