Data presentation and browsing operating system and method thereof

The present invention relates to a data presentation and browsing operating system and method thereof for use in a data processing device, and more particularly to a data processing device having a touch operation function.

With the rapid development of the information network, users are accustomed to using the Internet to search for information. More commonly, the use of data processing devices such as computers or smart phones with network connectivity functions, through web browsers to networks such as Google or Yahoo. The road platform searches for the required information through its vast database and fast search engine.

In general, the web platform is better for providing faster search services, such as speeding up search speed, data accuracy or increasing data volume, by adding keywords, enhancing the database or using better search algorithms. The above method can achieve the above purpose. Although the aforementioned technological developments can provide better search services, they only focus on the search process and search results, and do not contribute much to the presentation and subsequent browsing of the searched data. Sometimes, a large amount of data and non-intuitive operation methods cause the inconvenience of users to obtain the required information.

In addition, for touch-enabled handheld devices, due to the limitation of the display screen size, it is difficult to view the search data in a comprehensive way. In other words, the user must use a variety of operating procedures to further view the data presentation and For subsequent operations, a handheld device with a small display screen needs better data presentation and touch operation.

The figures shown in Figures 1A and 1B are schematic diagrams of the current search engine for presenting the retrieved data. In FIG. 1A, in general, the search result will display each N-number search data 10 in a bar chart in the window 1, for example, "webpage 1", "webpage 2", etc., as shown in the search data 10, but If the N data cannot be presented at the same time, the scroll bar 100 on the right side may be scrolled down to view the rest of the data, so that the viewing operation procedure needs to be increased, that is, when the secondary N data is to be viewed, The pull bar 100 on the right side of the window 1 needs to be scrolled to the bottom end. As shown in Fig. 2, the bottom page of the page is displayed with "previous page", "next page" and the number of pages for clicking (for example " The link 11 of 1", "2", etc.) must be selected by the user to view the search data of other pages. The browsing operation of the search result is not only intuitive and inconvenient, so there is still room for improvement.

Therefore, how to provide better browsing and operation of search data, especially to avoid complicated operations such as pulling and simple data presentation, and to provide convenient browsing and intuitive operation, is a technical problem that is currently being solved.

In view of the above-mentioned shortcomings of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to utilize a data presentation and browsing operating system and a method thereof to enhance data readability by displaying data in a closed graphic.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a user with an intuitive and easy operation browsing program through a data presentation and browsing operating system and method thereof.

To achieve the foregoing and other objects, the present invention provides a data presentation and browsing operating system, which provides a data presentation module for presenting data according to search conditions, including: a data presentation module, which is used to The result data is numbered and arranged along the border of a closed graphic for partial or total presentation of the result data, and an event instruction is generated according to the operation trigger of the closed graphic; and the event processing module is configured to receive And processing the event instruction, causing the data capture module to retrieve the result data corresponding to the event instruction, and causing the data presentation module to perform the data presentation change on the closed graphic according to the event information.

In an embodiment, the event instruction includes clicking, dragging, rotating, or dragging a border of the closed graphic inside, outside, or the closed graphic, so that the result data presented on the border of the closed graphic changes correspondingly.

Moreover, the present invention provides a data presentation and browsing operation method, which comprises the following steps: (1) arranging part or all of the data of the search result data along the border of a closed graphic as the partial or total result data. (2) operating within the bounding graphic, externally or the bounding frame of the closed graphic to trigger an event on the closed graphic; and (3) triggering a corresponding event command according to the event, and the closed graphic system The state of the result data is changed according to the event instruction.

Compared with the prior art, the data presentation and browsing operating system and the method thereof of the present invention use a closed graphic to present the searched data, so that the user does not need to scroll the side of the page to perform the pull. The page adjustment, especially for the information processing device with a small display screen, can better display its advantages, and the invention further provides a direct browsing operation on the closed graphic, which is not only intuitive and simple, but also provides an information processing device capable of providing touch control. It is simple, so it can provide users with better data presentation and browsing operations.

The technical contents of the present invention are described below by way of specific embodiments, and those skilled in the art can easily understand the advantages and effects of the present invention from the contents disclosed in the present specification. The invention may be embodied or applied by other different embodiments.

Please refer to FIG. 2 for an architectural diagram of the data presentation and browsing operating system of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the data presentation and browsing operating system 2 of the present invention is used for the presentation of a search data and a corresponding browsing operation. The data presentation and browsing operating system 2 includes: a data presentation module 21 and an event processing module 22 .

It should be noted that the foregoing data presentation and browsing operating system 2 is applied to the data processing device, and provides better data presentation and convenient browsing for the data captured by the data acquisition module 3 according to the search conditions. The operation, and thus the type of the data processing device, is not limited, especially for a touch device without a mouse or a keyboard, and the intuitive and simple browsing operation effect that the present invention can achieve can be highlighted.

The data capture module 3 is configured to perform data capture according to the search conditions to generate corresponding result data. The data capture module 3 provides a data search function, and the search condition may be a keyword, a time, a date, a range, etc., and the data capture module 3 performs data search and extracts at least one piece of data. The result data is presented to the user 200 for viewing and use through the aforementioned data presentation module 21.

It should be noted that the data capture module 3 is not limited to a general webpage search engine. Since the present invention mainly provides data presentation and corresponding manipulation, the searchable data can be presented and browsed through the present invention. System 2 performs data presentation and interactive control.

The data presentation module 21 is configured to number the result data and sequentially arrange along a border of a closed graphic for some or all of the result data to be presented, and generate an event instruction according to the operation trigger of the closed graphic. . Specifically, the data presentation module 21 mainly provides functions such as data presentation and event triggering. In the aspect of data presentation, the data capture module 3 transmits the retrieved result data to the data presentation through the event processing module 22. The module 21, and the data presentation module 21 numbers the result data and sequentially arranges them on the border of a closed figure, which may be, for example, a circle, a hexagon or an octagon, etc., and the result data Then, they are arranged along the edge of the closed figure, and the arrangement of the data can be equidistant or unequal, and the specific implementation will be detailed later. In the case of event triggering, the user 200 can perform a browsing operation on the closed graphic through a touch screen or a keyboard, a mouse, or the like mounted on the data processing device, and the data presentation module 21 can be used according to the use. The operation triggers the corresponding event instruction, and transmits the event instruction to the event processing module 22, and the event processing module 22 then requests the data extraction module 3 according to the event instruction to obtain the corresponding result data. The result data is returned to the data presentation module 21 for presentation.

As can be seen from the above, the present invention displays the searched data through a closed graphic instead of displaying it in a conventional manner, so that the searched data can be presented on the same page without scrolling the right side like the conventional display mode. The pull bar can browse other materials on the same page, so the data is presented through the closed graphic, and the data presentation is more human and intuitive. The advantages of the foregoing invention are more suitable for small screens or electronic devices with touch.

The event processing module 22 is configured to receive and process the event instruction, so that the data capture module 3 obtains the corresponding result data according to the event instruction, and notifies the data presentation module 21 to block the result data according to the event instruction. The graphics make changes to the presentation of the material. As described above, after receiving the event command from the trigger event of the data presentation module 21, the event processing module 22 requests the data capture module 3 to find the required data, and then passes the event processing module 22 to the data presentation. After the module 21, the data is presented on the closed graphic.

It should be noted that the function of the event processing module 22 includes receiving a trigger event transmitted by the data presentation module 21 and performing corresponding processing according to different events. The trigger event to be processed has condition data, initial data, and number of pens. Although the event processing module 22 described above only discloses that the data acquisition module 3 is required to perform the retrieval of the required data, the event processing module 22 actually plays the role of the entire system controller and receives all the triggers. The event, the event is processed, and the result is transmitted back to the data presentation module 21. Therefore, the event triggered by the data presentation module 21 is not simply transmitted to the data capture module 3. The event instruction includes selecting any of the result data of the closed graphic and clicking to display the detailed content of the result data. That is, the result data is presented along the closed graphic column. If the user 200 wants to view a certain result data, the user directly selects the data (for example, a hyperlink format), and the user can connect to the pen. The content, web page or website of the resulting data.

In addition, the event command further includes a touch screen or a keyboard, a mouse, and the like input by the user through the data processing device, and the border and/or the cursor of the closed graphic inside, outside or the closed graphic are performed. Clicking, dragging, rotating, or dragging causes the result data presented on the border of the closed graphic to change correspondingly. In this case, in addition to clicking on a certain result data viewing, when the result data is likely to be divided into multiple pages, when the other result data needs to be presented, the closed graphic can be operated by clicking, dragging, rotating or dragging. In order to achieve the effect of replacing the presented content (pages with different page counts), the closed graphic operation is not only intuitive and does not require complicated procedures (the use of a pull bar and a specific link is required), which makes the browsing operation easier. . More specific examples will be described later.

Moreover, the event instruction may include condition data, starting data, and number of pens. In other words, the event instruction triggered by the operation of the user 200 may include information such as condition data, starting data, and number of pens, and the condition data includes search conditions, such as the keyword or range, and the starting data may be For the data to be presented, the number of pens can be displayed in a single stroke. However, the above description is only an embodiment. In actual implementation, the content of the command may be increased, decreased or adjusted according to the requirements.

Please refer to FIG. 3 . The following describes the flow of the data presentation and browsing operation method of the present invention in conjunction with the data presentation and browsing operating system of the present invention shown in FIG. 2 . In step S301, part or all of the data of the search result data is sequentially arranged along the border of a closed figure as a presentation of the part or all of the result data. Specifically, for example, the N pens in the searched data (that is, the number of pages that can be presented) are arranged in the border of the closed figure, and the user can directly view all the information in the page without pulling the bar. Then it proceeds to step S302.

In step S302, the touch screen or the keyboard, the mouse, and the like input device mounted on the data processing device perform operations such as clicking, dragging, rotating, or dragging on the inside, outside, or the border of the closed graphic. Event triggering on the closed graphic. In detail, when the user wants to view other page materials, the user can click on the touch screen or the input device of the keyboard or the mouse to click inside or outside the closed graphic, and drag the interior of the closed graphic to the outside or the outside to the inside, or Dragging the closed graphic, thereby changing the result data presented on the border of the closed graphic, so that the browsing operation mode is not only simple and intuitive, but also beneficial to the user. Then it proceeds to step S303.

In step S303, a corresponding event instruction is generated according to the event trigger, and the closed graphic changes the state of the result data according to the event instruction. That is, the event triggering performed in step S302 will generate a corresponding event instruction, so that the content presented by the closed graphic can be changed by the event instruction, so in this step, the closed graphic is presented according to the event instruction. content.

The result data is numbered according to the search result, so that the number represented by the closed figure is changed when the event is triggered. In other words, the result data obtained by the search will be numbered sequentially, as in the prior art, the present invention provides a number for each result data, and is presented on the closed figure according to the number, thus, the foregoing The closed graphic content is changed by an event trigger, that is, the number presented on the closed graphic is changed.

To specifically illustrate the present invention, the searched data is presented through the closed graphic, and the browsing operation on the closed graphic is followed by the contents shown in FIGS. 4, 5A to 5F, as described in the foregoing FIGS. 2 and 3. The content is explained.

As shown in Fig. 4, it is a schematic diagram of a closed figure presented by the present invention. In Fig. 4, after searching, a plurality of data 41 are presented on the border of the closed graphic 4. The page shown in the figure displays six data 41, but the number is only an example, wherein the The data 41 is sequentially numbered and arranged along the border of the closed figure 4, so that the user can view the data in the page at one time, and no need to adjust the page through the conventional pull bar, and the number of materials 41 presented is more than The number of the closed figure 4 can be browsed by the operation mode described later.

In the following, the specific operation of clicking, dragging, rotating or dragging the closed graphic in step S302 of FIG. 3 will be described.

Step S302 of FIG. 3 includes externally clicking on the closed graphic, or dragging from the inside of the closed graphic to the outside to present the second N result data, and clicking inside the closed graphic or dragging from the outside to the inside of the closed graphic to Present the first N results data. The N pen is the number of results data presented by the closed graphic at a time. When the user wants to change the result data presented by the closed graphic, for example, if the user wants to view the N data, the external data can be clicked outside the closed graphic or closed inside the graphic. Dragging to the outside to change the result data presented by the closed graphic is the opposite operation mode for the first N data.

As shown in Figures 5A and 5B, in the left side of Figure 5A, the outside of the closed figure 5 is clicked through the indicator 52 (using the mouse and the touch control), or the inside of the closed figure is pulled to the outside, and the original closed figure 5 is In the middle, the data 51 of the number 1-6 is arranged clockwise, and the data 51' is the closed figure 5' of the number 7-12, as shown on the right side of the fifth drawing. Similarly, in the left side of FIG. 5B, the inside of the closed figure 5 can be clicked through the index 52, or can be dragged from the outside of the closed figure to the inside. At this time, the data 51 of the closed figure 5 which is originally clockwise arranged with the number 7-12 is The document 51' is a closed figure 5' of number 1-6, as shown on the right side of FIG. 5B.

The aforementioned step S302 includes rotating the closed graphic counterclockwise to increment the number of the presented result data by one, and rotating the closed graphic clockwise to decrement the number of the presented result data by one. Alternatively, the closed graphic can be rotated through a touch screen or an input device such as a keyboard or a mouse, so that the result data number displayed by the closed graphic is changed, and the secondary N pen is directly displayed differently from the previous one. The number of the result data is increased or decreased by one, so that the user can view the result data one by one.

As shown in FIGS. 5C and 5D, in the left side of FIG. 5C, by rotating the closed figure 5 in the counterclockwise direction, the data 51 in the closed figure 5 which is originally clockwise arranged numbered 1-6 becomes the data 51. 'The closed figure 5' is numbered 2-7, as shown on the right side of Figure 5C. Similarly, in the left side of the 5D figure, the closed pattern 5 can be rotated in the clockwise direction. At this time, the material 51 of the pattern 5 which is originally clockwise arranged with the number 6-11 is changed to become the number 51 of the data 51'. The closed figure 5' of 10 is shown on the right side of the 5D figure.

The step S302 may include dragging the border of the closed graphic outward through a touch screen or a keyboard, a mouse, or the like to increase the number of the presented data, and dragging the border of the closed graphic inward. The number of the result data presented is decremented. Different from the foregoing example, only the number is added or subtracted by 1. This operation mode increases or decrements the number of the result data according to the amount of dragging, so that the user can drag the size of the border of the closed graphic to make the displayed result data as needed. of.

As shown in FIG. 5E, the result data 51 in the closed figure 5 is number 1-6. When other result data is to be viewed, the frame of the closed figure can be dragged, and if the frame is dragged outward, the data 51 The number will be incremented. For example, the data 51 is number 1. When the border is dragged outward, it will be incremented gradually. After the drag is stopped, the remaining data will be displayed in the order of number. Similarly, if Dragging the border inward will decrement the number of the data 51 on it.

The step S302 may include inputting a number specifying the result data through a touch screen or an input device such as a keyboard or a mouse, so that the closed figure presented is the number and the result of the number N-1. data. In this case, the main purpose is to provide a number for the user to directly specify a certain result information, which is more convenient for the user to view the desired content. As shown in FIG. 5F, the original closed graphic 5 is presented as the data 51 of the number 1-6, and the user can input the desired number at the input 53 as shown in the right side of the 5F figure, and close the data 51' in the graphic 5'. The number 5 is the same as the input at the input 53 and the remaining data 51' is displayed in sequence.

It can be seen from the above description that the user directly triggers the event on the closed graphic, and the changed data can be changed by clicking, dragging, rotating or dragging. However, the different operation modes are designed in an intuitive and simple manner. Not used to limit this mode of operation.

The present invention is significantly simplified compared to conventional methods of operation as compared to conventional methods of operation. Specifically, the present invention can directly achieve the effect of presenting the N-th results data by clicking on the closed graphic externally or dragging the closed graphic from the inside to the outside, but the conventional method needs to scroll the page to the bottom, and The same effect can be achieved by clicking the link of “Next Page”. Similarly, the familiar method requires the more complicated steps to present the first N results. In addition, the present invention provides a result of dragging the border of the closed graphic inward or outward to display other numbered results, or searching for a specific number, which is significantly easier to click than in a conventional manner. Moreover, the present invention can directly rotate the closed pattern counterclockwise or clockwise to quickly change the numbered content presented, which is also not provided by conventional means. Therefore, the present invention is significantly simpler and faster than the conventional method.

In summary, the present invention provides a data presentation and browsing operating system and a method thereof, by presenting the searched data in a closed graphic, so that the user can see the entire page at a time without having to pass through such as The page is adjusted to significantly simplify the browsing process. In addition, the user can directly browse the closed graphic, which not only provides an intuitive and simple operation process, but also simplifies the conventional method, so that the data presentation and browsing operation are more user-friendly. In particular, the present invention can further highlight the advantages thereof for an electronic device having a touch function or a display screen that is too small.
