TW476036B - Attribute driven message management device and method - Google Patents

Abstract

To achieve a highly efficient identification of messages stored in the storage unit (12) of a message handling system the storage unit (12) is adapted to store a plurality of messages to provide an dynamic access thereto. This is achieved by at least one attribute (A=(p,f) ELEMENT A) assigned to each message such that each attribute describes at least one aspect of a message and a specific value for this aspect. Typical aspects to be used within the message handling systems are, e.g., a folder aspect, a status aspect, a time aspect, or a communication partner aspect. Within the message handling system (10) access to stored messages is organized through views being defined as a subset of view aspects (pν ⊆ P) and a set of view values (Vpν ⊆ V) for each such view aspect. Messages are then read from the storage unit (12) in accordance with the specified view.

Description

The scope of the invention. The present invention relates to an attribute-driven aTVi mental management device and its related backgrounds. For example, packet relay, atm (non-identical + letter, service digital network), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) Type), ISDN (the overall exhibition and the cost of various terminal equipment is getting lower and lower ,,,, and). The advancement of transmission technology is the ancient storage system, digital storage of the e-mail, recorder, voice mail, and e-mail. Success and widespread use Regardless of the user, users are beginning to understand the impact of new communication technologies that are different from direct interactive communications such as video phones or typical phones. At present, the first new messaging system has been established and is often used. E-mail is now the most advanced and accepted messaging tool. The Internet is a typical example of an electronic system. The text message ^ is based on the August 1982 American Network Information Center (Netw〇rk ^

Information Center) RFC82 2 D. Crocker's " Standard for the format of ARPA internet text messages " described in RFC82 2 Internet Telecommunications Standard is encoded for transmission. However, other types of messaging such as fax and voicemail coexist for a long time and integration between these systems is possible and is currently available. In particular, an increasing proportion of email messages are in multimedia format, such as text, audio, video, and still pictures in a single email message.

476036 V. Description of the invention (2) Therefore, the most promising service is to integrate a variety of different types of messages, such as text, audio, pictures, and / or video into a single mail. N.S. Borenstein's Internet Multimedia Mail with MIME: Emerging Standards for

Interoperabintyn, pages 173-182, and 1991 in the USENIX Proceedings of Nashville, Tennessee, D. c. A. Bul terman, G. van Rossum van Liere, nA Structure for Transportable, Dynamic Multimedia Documents. The encoding and its context are standardized for transmission attempts. Therefore, I-mail messages provide new communication methods similar to graphics with related audio instructions or even Wang Rongmu video. The product will also allow multimedia services and other similar voice mail and fax Integration of messaging services. The main advantage of integrated mail messaging is that integrated mail messaging allows for more integrated processing of different message types as described above. A prerequisite for this is central processing of all different types of messaging data. The Central air-conditioning, success, users can get electronic messages from a multi-terminal through different network types, and can use fax, t-mail and e-mail messages. So ... the management of the previous message includes one The message ίΐΐ ΡΓ is woven into a tree structure based on the current. In particular, each folder is dedicated: = new message and each message may have attributes assigned to it and obtained from a pre-specified koukou set), such as new (new), unread (unfetched / read (read (Read). ^;

476036 V. Description of the invention (3) ^ ~ 'I-As shown in FIG. 8, the set of stored information corresponds to a database that is automatically filled in and includes, for example, related plans or related management information. However, the search of this database is supported by appropriate tools. The enhanced management system is based on a clear rule to support the filtering of incoming messages. This set of rules specifies conditions for the relationship between specific fields in the received message, such as ProcMail for UNIX. The result of this filtering initiates an appropriate action, such as moving or copying a received message to a specific folder or creating a new message automatically stored. However, as shown in Figure 8, the main problem is that the messages can often be seen under some systematic features. One example is the received message includes ^ about the 'example: plan A, plan B, address and billing information. . It is difficult to determine here which folder the Associate should assign to, as the address and bills are also linked outside the scope of the plan. Therefore, it is difficult to designate a tree structure in advance so that all received messages are classified and stored in the tree structure regardless of the format change. Still, if the tree is structured, it is difficult to obtain information after storage. On the other hand, if you provide a structure ¥ that reflects a more specific category of information, it may appear that a message does not belong to any of the pre-designated folders. Conversely, 'if a message can be assigned to a multiple and different folder because of that particular classification, it is likely that the message must be duplicated and stored in multiple locations. At least one pointer to the location of a complete copy of the message must be stored in these folders about a message and not including its copy. However, this will greatly increase the necessary storage capacity or increase the complexity of message management. ~

If you find one, you can provide it. However, the method also provides additional steps and the number of locations. Periodically re-fold the folder to make the type of information in the case of classification very different. Δ ΐ ΐ 五 五 5. Description of the invention (4) Processing = processing of a tree-like structure. The user himself or all relevant information is included: Bai Ding π, 丨 J Bei 枓 folder in a clear way to capture m continuous The update of the unclassifiable message that was just received in the tree was due to the method during message processing: the method will increase the required search; this can lead to the overall structure of the storage location in a unified way to accommodate all new effects. Still, the asset has quickly become outdated and inappropriate without continuing to update it, as-useless data is lost. In this case, it will become more and more difficult during the retrieval period to the end, although it can be seen in some systematic features such as delivery date that the system allows only a very limited number of features to manage the stored information. In addition, the highest priority of these stored messages is a tree folder structure. As shown in Figure 8, only the view allows messages in the subfolders. On the whole, 'organizing such messages into some freely assignable features may result in folders or non-contained messages via the message. On the whole, the message folder is not ideal. In the message capture and the method is arranged to facilitate the message capture, the structure will have to store the intended consequence, recipient, time and / or transmission of the saved message, but the message currently processes the data. A standard message processing system will have a specific feature of a lower-priority order that a standard message processing system will be statically organized into the hierarchical 'known message management system' Claim. because

Finally, P 2 is the largest ultra-micro-number user tool supported by the message management system. The superb message management system does not provide a proper search and summary of the invention. The object of the present invention is to achieve high-efficiency message identification according to the requirements of ip if. > Shi Zi # 二 明, the goal is achieved by a message processing system, 3 = two = management system including π storage tools to store a multi-information inflammation through the uncle, two, and five Attributes to provide its dynamic access and each attribute at least describes a characteristic of the message and the specific value of the characteristic, input / output tool to transmit the message, do not transfer to and from a storage tool, observe the specified tool to observe the feature A set of observations / sets of observations of each observation feature and input a user-defined observation on the stored information, and an interest rate retrieval tool to obtain the observation value given by the specific observation feature and distribution from Select an observation message in the storage tool. So 'the efficient and advanced management processing system is an important factor in providing productivity. Here's because the information is accessed through so-called attributes and user-specified observations without any pre-designated structure imposed on it, so the stored information is managed in a very flexible and efficient manner. Therefore, users of the groundbreaking message management system can arrange users in real time when they want to view different messages about a certain feature, because the way of storing messages is to use a set of attributes to represent the logical relationship between the front and back of a message. Opposite

H- / OUJO V. Description of the invention (6) All the details about the most exquisite and important logical relationships are 'because of the overall storage capacity of the message,' so that the system is provided for all storage but not stored here. The invention of the invention is that the information processing system is a message processing system. The groundbreaking different messages are stored according to the present invention. If there is no information, a storage is attached, and each storage plan is stored with special features according to the present invention. The toolkit protects any tree-like relationships related to storage techniques, as well as related information in the news. structure. Information management: Once the user specifies the system, it will show that it currently wants to save the front and back logic information only once, so the implementation of the information management system is greatly reduced. It is clearly allowed to be flexible and have a variety of information. The characteristics of the information are used to modify the characteristics of the previously stored steps, and the management based on the observation not only allows the supply to be restored, but also allows the management of the information processing system to be easily repaired. A further feature is that in the list of attributes adjusted for sequential linking, there is a bond adjustment that is suitable for this pioneering effect. In addition, the search for existing messages or the storage of information in the message store can be changed and repeated. The establishment of effective management capabilities can be achieved by rearranging the management system packages by adding management information, storing the information in the new definition, and adding a pre-processing system for the information required by the system. Of it. Enclose a message. The groundbreaking attribute. In the information processing system stored therein, a single message is stored so that each of the storages is very information-dealed, and the subject of the information stored in the storage tool further includes an observation or immediate access to the information for efficient storage and management. In the system, the message is implemented by the storage standard and all the orders are executed. This depends on the different information management systems, quasi-observation, and comparability, depending on whether the message or 〇, the

However, the management of standard observations can be performed in the background so that the update process will not cause a significant delay for the user because standard observations are stored in the groundbreaking information processing system, and nothing is known in the heart processing system. Functional and automatic branching of pre-defined child folder structures or user-defined observations. According to another feature of the present invention, a filtering tool is provided in the message processing system to identify messages transmitted to and from the storage tool respectively according to a pre-designated observation. Here, the user may choose to be notified when transmitting special information on which the user relies. In addition, accounting measures can be performed automatically and security in the open interest processing system can be enhanced. The last point is decentralized fast brain. It is particularly important in Ten Different Clothes, where the system is accessible to an almost unlimited number of users. According to another feature of the present invention, a classification tool is provided in the message processing system to classify selected messages according to criteria specified by the user. The provision of classification tools allows not only selective message operations during the input and output of messages, but also selective message operations within the message processing system. Typical examples of criteria used when performing a search can be user-defined criteria, system-dependent criteria, or hardware-dependent criteria. After that, according to another feature of the present invention, in the message processing system, an editing and organization tool is provided in the message processing tool. Overall, the editing and organization tool provides two plus = processing = forces in the information processing system. In particular, the attributes can be modified to allow flexible adaptation of stored information. However, the relationship between time and structure of different messages can be exploited based on an observation. Another option is to synchronize messages during multimedia applications.

Each message according to the present invention is assigned to a specific set of $ a. Here, each attribute aeA is usually a two-block a (P, f), where p e p defines a specific feature of a message and f e f gives an appropriate value for the feature. The most common feature of the set used to view the set of stored messages is that the folder is used by Pfoider to find a common system standard based on context, theme, sender or receiver. Another feature that can be considered is the state feature ', such as Qing (new), unread (read), read (read). Here, each message can be displayed to the user's purity. View under the characteristics of the state;; means that the standard for grouping the obvious messages is the common state as described above. : -Characteristics are day and time characteristics ^, and time characteristics can only take effect in a limited way i ί τ. This 4 can be identified by its arrival or: departure date: time identification-message. In particular, 'τ' is used to identify messages received or transmitted at a specific time or within a specific time period of all stored information. Another feature of / blocked messages is the communication partner. , Zheng, where the message 辨识 is identified based on the message. In particular, there may be a set that belongs to a particular recipient or a group such as a plan member, a customer, or the like. Another feature of δ breath can be the key feature that is very useful in enabling users to grow relationships. Here, the user can flexibly highlight the message in the message. Word characteristics Pkeyw, keyword characteristics PkW plus keywords to represent the front and back of the message Moonlight will add these keywords to a front-to-back relationship and start a target

476036 V. Description of invention (ίο) Certain search for specific information. Another feature of the message can be adapted to start a discussion. Viewing messages under this feature means that the most obvious message grouping criterion is a common theme. Once the different characteristics of the message are obtained in the groundbreaking message processing system, the next step is to assign specific values to the different characteristics described above, such as holder, pstatus, ptime, P_, and. The following are typical examples of the value set: Ffolder = {Pr〇ject — a // addresses (plan-a / address), project-a / incurrinig (plan 丨 Ja / suffer from white spoon), • y project-a / outgoing, Fstatus II {new (new), unread (unread), read (read), filtered (filtered), very urgent (very urgent) Urgent), urgent, Ftime II {December 1996, May 1, 1997, Fc〇m = (group-member, outside-partner, Fkeyw = · {Address, financial information, Contracts and orders, where each value set (val ue set) can be combined with the individual features to form a specific attribute ae A. Therefore, the set of relative attributes for each feature is defined as A1 = {Pi丨 X Fi. Still, the set of all possible attributes is

Description of the invention (11) A subset of all attributes AmgA is related to specific information ', and the attribute subset may include some with the same characteristics p but assigned Given the same characteristic p are components of different values f, for example,

Am = {(folder, project_a / incoming), (folder, project — a / addresses), (status, read), (recipient, error! No reference source found. (Receiver, fax = +49240 757 540 0)} According to the example, the feature folder has two attributes, namely pr 〇ject _a / incoming (plan-a / entry) and project-a / addresses (plan_8 / address), and this attribute Subset-related messages are sent to two recipients, but these messages can only have one state, which in this case is read tr (read). The following will provide the messages stored in this groundbreaking message processing system A more general description of the basic concepts captured.

Observation is used to capture new information about a particular context in accordance with the present invention. According to the present invention, observation V is defined as a collection of observation features pvf P and a set of multiple observation values fpve Fp for each observation feature Pvep. So an observation defines a subset of the messages defined below Mv 6 M 3 pePvAve

Therefore, all attributes are arranged in order and each attribute a! Includes—refers to a linked message list m with a specific attribute ai being true (...). It should be noted here that the Huddlers, Masters, and U'mii only include their addresses so that they are not earlier, "so it is related to this message. The storage information of the evening The main advantage of organizing data in Figure 3 is that once an observation has been pointed to a subset, the corresponding subset of information can be immediately obtained. You can obtain it from Figure 1 2-2. Therefore The specific embodiment of the groundbreaking information processing system 2 allows to retrieve information based on pre-designated observations after storage in a more efficient and therefore faster way than traditional methods. In addition, this person is very suitable for performing mathematics and The logical operation is to store the information set of the message processing system 10 indirectly. Therefore, the present invention allows the information to be retrieved quickly and very accurately after the information storage according to FIG. 3. The back printing FIG. 4 shows that it has an interface 2. A specific embodiment of an observation designation unit 丨 6 of an observation memory 22 and an indicator management unit 24. As shown in τ Figure ^ 2, the observation designation unit 16 is connected to the memory unit 丨 2 and the 丨 / 〇Unit 1 4. ~ This interface 20 is used for Receive the user's instructions ^ and instructions from the message processing system.

JU is defined by the interface 20 during the operation of the observation designation unit 16 shown in FIG. In the case where the observation is generally important and used several times, as described above, the specified observation can be stored in the sharp inspection memory 2 2. Identify whether the observation memory 22 is stored corresponding to, for example, the previous so: when the standard observation about the tree structure of the superb skill folder, you can use the attribute-driven message processing according to the present invention The system will not lose any known function of the information processing system that I learned. Therefore, the user interface will be different between different views: for example, between specific and pre-defined folder contents = # user-defined observations. In this case, if the field is set to — μ κ, etc., a new folder will be created, and the message processing system will automatically generate +1 temple observation. 7! Yuan Yuan is shown in Figure 4.

V. Description of Invention (16) Added or removed from the list. According to the present invention, this is because the search results are not immediately available, so it is carried out for the user and causes a significant delay. The new program will not be shown in FIG. 5. FIG. 5 shows a further specific embodiment of the present invention, and a specific embodiment of the message processing unit 18. Here, the unit 18 shown in FIG. 1 includes an interface unit 26 and a filtering unit 28 for processing a single editing and organization unit 32. Dao Daoyuan Yuan 30 and the one-step element for the message processing and message input, also V organization unit 32 is classified into unit 30 and another unit can be shown in Figure 5: Yuan 2 8 This filter selects messages and identifies The element 2 6 in this filter is a message per unit 2 8 so that the unit 28 can be in the first place. The user of the pass message transmission system 1 knows 0: 2 The interface unit 2 "processes observations, commands, and outputs Therefore, all of the information processing unit 8 is the filtering unit 28, the classification unit 30, and the editing and connecting to the interface unit. Still, the filtering unit 28, the delta editing and organization unit 3 2 The first unit of the message processing unit 18 is that the filter unit 28 is adjusted to be suitable for selecting the messages related to these observations according to the defined observations, respectively. The result can be entered by an observation at the interface unit 28. A first option of the present invention, the transmission to and from the storage unit 12 will activate the filtering to check whether the message is related to the observation. The filtering groundbreaking message processing system 10 then initiates a multiple dream step. (Ii) Units 28 can be adjusted to perform automatic alerting sometimes with a particular observation. So this groundbreaking message processing system can choose to have immediate access to the specific information it relies on.

V. Description of the invention (17) Secondly, another option is to automatically initiate a billing measure in the pioneering income-generating processing system 10 once a specific transmission is detected. This option is particularly used in commercial information processing systems connected to, for example, the Internet or X. 25 and X. 400 network systems. a In addition, the filtering unit 28 may be adapted to prevent the transmission of a message related to a particular observation when the full and / or authentication requirements of the message are not met. This enhanced feature is particularly important when using the groundbreaking information processing system in a decentralized computer environment where a virtually unlimited number of users can access the system. King Wen As shown in Figure 5, another element of the message management unit 8 is the classification unit 0. The classification unit 30 differs from the filtering unit 28 in that the classification unit is used to identify a subset of messages and also allows modification of data that is determined in accordance with a specific context and read from the memory unit 2. Therefore, once a message is selected based on an observation, the corresponding messages can be classified according to a multi-user-defined classification criterion. Standards such as Baixian, Yihai, etc. can be stored based on the above-mentioned characteristics, such as the time characteristics, according to the received time in different information systems. Another option is to use different operating system standards, such as the storage space required by different sources, to separate the different sources *, β heart ° heart ^, 0) ^ ^ U knife heart dog. In the case where the memory-the space of the memory of the early Wu 12 must be taken into account, it is suitable for that place. It is often useful to check that the system requires a large storage door in the system. The position of the A post in Baowen A may be non-formal. The message can be based on the standards that depend on the hardware level. The example of a blood is the message corresponding to the multimedia # 用 and ^ Since H in the eight I use ugly floods. Similar audio and

The / point is easier to combine-remember; physical, dynamic message processing system 1 〇 The best is to choose-based on rules i :: element 12 and / filter "type unit. In the case, the outcome is a manual It is used for filtering, and the buccal unit is used to respond to the user's behavior and the information processing system guided by H f. The intelligent filtering and classification made on request is suitable. In addition, the technology can be used to hit π; information processing A specific rule specified in the system 10 occurred, for example, the attribute of the message processing system has not lost the sundial. Here are extra possibilities and options. You can watch the offerings, but according to the present invention, as shown in Figure 5, the message processing, and the classification unit 30 also includes a compilation of the above-mentioned unit 28-observe the selected message to provide enhanced information: 32 for the first processing of the element 32 according to the editing and organization list according to the certain. Or modify these features or a certain message: function, it is possible to add or delete the attributes of the message. This “&”; specific values to modify the selected stored information can change the situation; during the development of the plan, the editor and the organizational unit 32 can be developed separately. The structural relationship can be developed based on some observations = The time and knot between messages is classified into, for example, text, audio, video, similar to faxing these messages into different groups and synchronizing such messages in the case of such mail, voice mail, and off Into. Xunxin has a multimedia file. Figure 6 shows a typical example of the relationship between time and structure. this

Description of the invention (19) ^ ------, these different messages can be displayed on a PC terminal or television corresponding to a multimedia file . Usually, these messages are only mistaken by, for example, a group, that is, the audio used to publish the information to be transmitted: []: two or four different dynamic information related to the video, used to the video: no, public Graphic information and signs for short message display. ° Once the planes overlap, as shown in Figure 6 ’, the messages that fall into different groups are arranged in order. Shang must use the attribute group, and

j ^ J synchronization arcs (34 to 50) to describe the time ^ # Time relationship between messages with the group. Finding the wrong way here 丨 Synchronization uses attributes so that the groundbreaking message processing system 丄 〇 There are months 彳 可 疋 This can be randomly stored in the memory unit 12 ^ Rebuild multimedia files. Synchronization arcs 34 to 50 include three basic elements, namely the reference time, the minimum acceptable delay time, and the maximum tolerable delay time. The reference time is a relative or absolute reference definition to provide synchronization of events. The absolute reference time is specified in a manner relative to the arrangement of the multimedia file (r o u t e). It is usually not possible to specify a time relationship such that the 5H report starts as the destination of 5 Li 5 8 and the source of the report 5 4 is behind. Still, the acceptable minimum delay time is equal to the period that specifies the minimum allowable delay time in the synchronization relationship. A minimum delay time of 0 units indicates a difficult synchronization relationship. A negative delay time indicates the ability to start the target annotation earlier than the displayed reference time. Finally, the tolerable maximum delay time is equal to specifying the synchronization relationship

It is very suitable for multi-processor systems and the same: the synchronization method during system 10 arcs) corresponds to the fork (f0rk): Synchronizatlón Figure 7 shows this groundbreaking message = (Join) operation. Illustration. Here, in a first step, the process of a processing sequence by the system 10 has been received for a new observation will be queried 珣 the message processing system 10 is based on the new observation selected by the user; : If the message has been received, it will be received in step S2 and then 'in step S3, it will receive a request for not only a new message,' but also the message processing system 1G. If it is determined that it has been received, it is the processing, editing and organization of such messages. , T performs the filtering and separation as described above-as shown in Figure 7, so the system will continue to repeat 2 in steps $ 丄 to s 4 in order to provide the necessary online tribute to the information processing system] As mentioned above, the present invention allows the establishment of an effective message processing system for all kinds of messages, such as text, audio, video, pictures, mail, voice mail, fax, with flexibility and improved system integration.
