도 4는 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 전자가격 표시기 및 진열가이드를 관리하는 시스템에 포함된 전자가격표시기에 포함된 데이터 구성을 도시한 도면이다.4 is a diagram illustrating a data configuration included in an electronic price indicator included in a system for managing an electronic price indicator and a display guide according to an embodiment of the present invention.
도 4를 참조하면, MS_LABEL(410)은 전자가격표시기(220)에 자체에 관한 정보 테이블이며, MS_OBJECT(420)는 상품에 대한 정보 테이블을 나타낸다. MS_LABEL(410)과 MS_OBJECT(420)는 각 고유한 아이디(411, 421)를 가지고 있으며, 전자가격표시기(220)의 MS_LABEL(410)의 아이디(411)와 상품의 MS_OBJECT(420)의 아이디(421)는 논리적으로 대응된다.Referring to FIG. 4, MS_LABEL 410 is an information table about itself in the electronic price indicator 220, and MS_OBJECT 420 represents an information table for products. MS_LABEL 410 and MS_OBJECT 420 each have unique IDs 411 and 421, and ID 411 of MS_LABEL 410 of electronic price indicator 220 and ID 421 of MS_OBJECT 420 of product ) Is logically mapped.
해당 매핑 데이터(MS_ASSOCIATION; 430)는 서버(210)에서 별도로 관리되며, 상품 정보가 업데이트되면, 서버(210)는 해당 상품과 대응되는 전자가격표시기(220)의 아이디를 참고하여 해당 전자가격표시기(220)로 상품 정보 업데이트 명령을 전송한다.The corresponding mapping data (MS_ASSOCIATION; 430) is separately managed by the server 210, and when product information is updated, the server 210 refers to the corresponding electronic price indicator by referring to the ID of the electronic price indicator 220 corresponding to the corresponding product ( 220) to send a product information update command.
도 5는 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 전자가격표시기 및 진열가이드를 관리하는 시스템의 동작을 설명하기 위한 순서도이다.5 is a flow chart for explaining the operation of the system for managing the electronic price indicator and the display guide according to an embodiment of the present invention.
도 5를 참조하면, 전자가격표시기(220)는 초기 할당 동작을 수행한다(S510).Referring to FIG. 5, the electronic price indicator 220 performs an initial allocation operation (S510).
전자가격표시기(220)는 전자가격표시기(220) 자체의 고유 아이디와 상품의 고유 아이디를 대응시킴으로써 할당 동작을 수행할 수 있다. 또한 전자가격표시기(220)는 상품의 고유 아이디 대신 상품이 위치되는 선반의 아이디, 선반에서의 층의 아이디 및 선반에서의 세부 섹션의 아이디를 이용하여 할당 동작을 수행할 수도 있다. 그리고 나서 진열가이드가 변경되면, 서버(210)는 기 적용된 진열가이드와 변경된 진열가이드를 비교한다(S520).The electronic price indicator 220 may perform an allocation operation by matching the unique ID of the electronic price indicator 220 itself with the unique ID of the product. Also, the electronic price indicator 220 may perform the allocation operation using the ID of the shelf where the product is located, the ID of the floor on the shelf, and the ID of a detailed section on the shelf, instead of the unique ID of the product. Then, when the display guide is changed, the server 210 compares the previously applied display guide with the changed display guide (S520).
그리고 나서 서버(210)는 비교 결과에 기초하여 변경리스트를 생성한다(S530). 변경리스트는 기 적용된 진열가이드와 변경된 진열가이드를 비교하여, 위치가 변경되는 상품에 관련된 정보를 포함한다. 이때 변경리스트는 진열가이드 변경에 따른 변화되는 상품의 배치 순번을 고려하여 생성될 수 있다. 또한 변경리스트는 진열가이드 변경에 따른 전자가격표시기(220)의 위치 변경이 최소화되도록 생성될 수 있다.Then, the server 210 generates a change list based on the comparison result (S530). The change list includes information related to a product whose position is changed by comparing a previously applied display guide with a changed display guide. At this time, the change list may be generated in consideration of the order of placement of products that are changed according to the change of the display guide. In addition, the change list may be generated so that the position change of the electronic price indicator 220 according to the change of the display guide is minimized.
서버(210)는 변경리스트에 기초하여 전자가격표시기(220)로 변경된 상품 정보를 송신하고, 전자가격표시기(220)는 수신된 정보에 따라 업데이트 동작을 수행한다(S540). 전자가격표시기(220)는 업데이트 동작 수행 여부를 디스플레이를 통해 표시한다(S550)The server 210 transmits the changed product information to the electronic price indicator 220 based on the change list, and the electronic price indicator 220 performs an update operation according to the received information (S540). The electronic price indicator 220 displays whether the update operation is performed through the display (S550).
서버(210)는 사용 중이지 않은 전자가격표시기(220)를 통해 상품 정보를 표시할 필요가 있으면, 서버(210)는 전자가격표시기(220)에 상품 정보를 송신하고, 전자가격표시기(220)는 수신된 정보에 기초하여 신규 할당 동작을 수행한다(S560).If the server 210 needs to display product information through an electronic price indicator 220 that is not in use, the server 210 transmits product information to the electronic price indicator 220, and the electronic price indicator 220 Performs a new assignment operation based on the received information (S560).
또한 서버(210)는 사용 중인 전자가격표시기(220)를 통해 상품 정보를 표시할 필요가 없어지면, 서버(210)는 전자가격표시기(220)에 할당 해제 동작 명령 또는 삭제 동작 명령을 송신하고, 전자가격표시기(220)는 수신된 정보에 기초하여 할당 해제 동작 또는 삭제 동작을 수행한다(S570).In addition, if the server 210 does not need to display product information through the electronic price indicator 220 in use, the server 210 transmits an unassignment operation command or a deletion operation command to the electronic price indicator 220, and the electronic The price indicator 220 performs an unassignment or deletion operation based on the received information (S570).
도 6은 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 전자가격표시기 및 진열가이드를 관리하는 시스템의 서버에 저장된 기 적용된 진열가이드 및 변경된 진열가이드의 일 예시를 표로 나타낸 도면이다. 도 7은 본 발명의 일 실시예에 따른 전자가격표시기 및 진열가이드를 관리하는 시스템에서 매장 내의 선반에 진열된 상품이 추가, 삭제, 교체 또는 중복 교체되는 상황을 예시한 도면이다.FIG. 6 is a table showing an example of an applied display guide and a modified display guide stored in a server of a system for managing an electronic price indicator and a display guide according to an embodiment of the present invention. 7 is a diagram illustrating a situation in which a product displayed on a shelf in a store is added, deleted, replaced, or duplicated in a system for managing an electronic price indicator and a display guide according to an embodiment of the present invention.
도 6을 참조하면, 기 적용된 진열가이드(610) 및 변경된 진열가이드(620)가 표로 표현된 것을 확인할 수 있다.Referring to FIG. 6, it can be seen that the pre-applied display guide 610 and the modified display guide 620 are represented in a table.
이때 신규 진열이면, 서버(210)는 하나의 진열가이드를 활용하여 변경리스트를 생성할 수 있다. 또한, 상품이 변경되어 진열가이드가 변경되면, 서버(210)는 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)와 변경된 진열가이드(620)를 비교하여 변경 리스트를 생성할 수 있다. At this time, if it is a new display, the server 210 may generate a change list using one display guide. In addition, when the product is changed and the display guide is changed, the server 210 may generate a change list by comparing the previously applied display guide 610 with the changed display guide 620.
먼저, 변경리스트는 선반 상에서 상품의 실제 위치가 아닌 선반 상에서의 상품의 배치 순번을 고려하여 생성될 수 있다. 즉, 기 적용된 진열가이드와 변경된 진열가이드에서 동일한 배치 순번을 가지는 상품을 비교하여 변경리스트를 생성할 수 있다. First, the change list may be generated in consideration of the placement order of the products on the shelf, not the actual location of the products on the shelf. That is, a change list may be generated by comparing products having the same batch number in the previously applied display guide and the changed display guide.
이때 상품의 배치 순번은 상품의 좌표 또는 상품의 길이 정보를 바탕으로 추정될 수도 있다. 이때 서버(210)는 상품의 배치 순번을 증가기준, 감소기준 또는 최단거리 기준으로 순서대로 비교하여 변경리스트를 생성할 수 있다. 이때 서버(210)는 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)가 없거나 신규 진열인 상황이면, 변경된 진열가이드(620)만을 이용하여 상품의 배치 순번을 생성할 수 있다.At this time, the arrangement order of the products may be estimated based on the coordinates of the products or the length information of the products. At this time, the server 210 may generate a change list by comparing the order of placement of the products in order of increasing, decreasing or shortest distance. At this time, the server 210 may generate a batch order number of products using only the changed display guide 620 if there is no display guide 610 applied or a new display.
도 7을 참고하면, 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)와 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 계획이 달라지는 다양한 경우가 있다. 상품이 추가되는 경우(A), 삭제되는 경우(B), 교체되는 경우(C) 및 중복되어 교체되는 경우(D)가 있을 수 있다. 이와 같이 상품의 배치가 변경되면, 변경된 진열가이드(620)를 기반으로 상품을 재배치하고 전자가격표시기를 업데이트할 수 있다.Referring to FIG. 7, there are various cases in which an arrangement plan of a product is changed in a previously applied display guide 610 and a modified display guide 620. There may be cases where a product is added (A), deleted (B), replaced (C), and duplicated (D). When the arrangement of products is changed as described above, the products can be rearranged and the electronic price indicator can be updated based on the changed display guide 620.
다시 도 6으로 돌아와서, 또한 변경리스트는 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)와 변경된 진열가이드(620)의 전자가격표시기(220)의 좌표를 비교하여 생성될 수 있다. 즉, 서버(210)는 개별 상품별로 추가, 교체, 또는 삭제되는 상품을 개별적으로 추적하거나 비교하지 않고, 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서의 상품의 배치 순번으로만 비교하여 변경리스트를 생성한다. 즉, 기 적용된 진열가이드(610) 및 변경된 진열가이드(620)에 포함된 상품을 증가기준, 감소기준 또는 최단거리 기준을 적용하여 1:1로 대응시켜 변경리스트를 생성한다. 복수 개의 상품이 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 변경되면, 실제로 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)의 어떤 상품이 변경되어야 하는지를 (혹은 모두 변경이 되어야 하는지) 사용자로부터 입력 받거나 사전에 정의된 별도의 룰 등에 의해서 처리될 수 있도록, 변경리스트에서 중복 상품은 별도로 체크될 수 있도록 구성한다.Returning to FIG. 6 again, the change list can also be generated by comparing the coordinates of the electronic display device 220 of the previously applied display guide 610 and the changed display guide 620. That is, the server 210 does not individually track or compare the products to be added, replaced, or deleted for each individual product, and generates a change list by comparing only the batch order of the products in the changed display guide 620. That is, a change list is generated by mapping the products included in the pre-applied display guide 610 and the modified display guide 620 to 1:1 by applying an increase criterion, a decrease criterion, or the shortest distance criterion. When a plurality of products are changed in the changed display guide 620, which product of the display guide 610 that has already been applied is input from the user (or all should be changed) or by a separate rule defined in advance. In order to be processed, duplicate products are configured to be checked separately in the change list.
이때 서버(210)는 상품의 배치 순번과 상품의 길이정보로 상품의 위치를 파악할 수 있다.At this time, the server 210 may grasp the location of the product by the order number of the product and the length information of the product.
예를 들어, 서버(210)는 상품의 배치 순번이 3인 상품의 위치를 동일한 선반의 상품의 배치 순번이 0, 1, 2인 상품의 길이를 모두 더함으로써 파악할 수 있다.For example, the server 210 can grasp the position of a product having a product placement sequence number of 3 by adding the lengths of the products having a product sequence number of 0, 1, and 2 on the same shelf.
이를 통해 서버(210)는 진열가이드를 통해 도 6 과 같이 상품명, 상품의 배치 순번 및 전자가격표시기(220)의 좌표가 포함된 표를 생성할 수 있다.Through this, the server 210 may generate a table including a product name, a product arrangement number, and coordinates of the electronic price indicator 220 as shown in FIG. 6 through a display guide.
이때 전자가격표시기(220)의 좌표는 중간에 배치되는 것을 가정하여 설정될 수 있다. At this time, the coordinates of the electronic price indicator 220 may be set on the assumption that they are arranged in the middle.
이제 도 6을 참조하여, 서버(210)가 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)와 변경된 진열가이드(620)를 이용하여 변경리스트를 생성하는 방법을 설명하도록 한다.Now, referring to FIG. 6, a method for generating a change list using the display guide 610 and the changed display guide 620 to which the server 210 has been applied will be described.
증가기준 방법은 기 적용된 진열가이드(610) 및 변경된 진열가이드(620)에 포함된 상품의 배치 순번을 작은 순번부터 대응시키는 방법이다. 예를 들어, 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 0, 1, 2, 3, 4인 상품은 각각 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 0, 1, 2, 3, 4인 상품과 대응될 수 있다. 그리고 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 5인 상품은 변경된 진열가이드(620)에 대응되는 상품이 없으므로 상품 제거와 대응될 수 있다. 감소기준 방법은 기 적용된 진열가이드(610) 및 변경된 진열가이드(620)에 포함된 상품의 배치 순번을 큰 순번부터 대응시키는 방법이다. 예를 들어, 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 5, 4, 3, 2, 1인 상품은 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 4, 3, 2, 1, 0인 상품과 대응될 수 있다. 그리고 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 0인 상품은 변경된 진열가이드(620)에 대응되는 상품이 없으므로 상품 제거로 설정될 수 있다. The incremental reference method is a method of matching the batch order of the products included in the pre-applied display guide 610 and the modified display guide 620 from a small sequence number. For example, in the pre-applied display guide 610, products having a product arrangement sequence number of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, respectively, have a product arrangement sequence number of 0, 1, 2, 3, It can correspond to a 4-person product. In addition, since the product having a batch order number of 5 in the pre-applied display guide 610 has no product corresponding to the changed display guide 620, it may correspond to product removal. The reduction reference method is a method in which the batch order of the products included in the pre-applied display guide 610 and the modified display guide 620 is matched from the large sequence number. For example, in a previously applied display guide 610, products having a product arrangement order number of 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 have a product arrangement order number of 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 in the changed display guide 620. Phosphorus products. In addition, in the previously applied display guide 610, since the product having a batch order number of 0 has no product corresponding to the changed display guide 620, it may be set as product removal.
최단거리 기준 방법은 진열가이드 변경에 따른 전자가격표시기(220)의 위치 변경을 최소화하는 방법이다.The shortest distance reference method is a method of minimizing the position change of the electronic price indicator 220 according to the change of the display guide.
기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 변경된 진열가이드(620)로 변경하여 적용하려면, 매장의 관리자는 그에 따라 상품을 재배치하고, 서버(210)는 전자가격표시기(220)가 표시하는 내용을 업데이트 해야 한다. 또한, 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)를 이용하는 경우의 상품 위치와 변경된 진열가이드(620)를 이용하는 경우의 상품 위치가 정확히 일치하지 않으면, 매장의 관리자는 변경된 상품 위치에 따라 전자가격표시기(220)의 위치를 변경해야 한다. 변경된 진열가이드(620)를 적용할 때, 변경된 내용에 따라 자동으로 전자가격표시기(220)가 표시하는 내용을 변경하고, 변경된 상품 위치에 따른 전자가격표시기(220)의 위치 이동을 최소화하면, 매장 운영 효율이 상승된다. 최단거리 기준 방법은 상품의 배치 순번과 전자가격표시기(220)의 좌표를 고려하여 전체적인 전자가격표시기(220)의 위치 변경을 최소화하도록 변경리스트를 생성한다. In order to change and apply the changed display guide 610 from the previously applied display guide 610, the manager of the store relocates the product accordingly, and the server 210 needs to update the content displayed by the electronic price indicator 220. . In addition, if the product location in the case of using the pre-applied display guide 610 and the product location in the case of using the changed display guide 620 do not exactly match, the manager of the store displays the electronic price indicator 220 according to the changed product location. You need to change the location. When applying the changed display guide 620, automatically changing the content displayed by the electronic price indicator 220 according to the changed content, and minimizing the movement of the position of the electronic price indicator 220 according to the changed product location, the store Operational efficiency is increased. The shortest distance reference method generates a change list to minimize the overall position change of the electronic price indicator 220 in consideration of the product arrangement order and the coordinates of the electronic price indicator 220.
이때 서버(210)는 최단거리 기준 방법을 적용할 때, 하기 수학식 1을 이용할 수 있다.In this case, when the shortest distance reference method is applied to the server 210, Equation 1 below may be used.
Figure PCTKR2019017487-appb-M000001
Figure PCTKR2019017487-appb-M000001
이때 S는 전자가격표시기(220)의 총 이동거리를 의미한다. 그리고 n은 상품의 배치 순번, m은 상품의 배치 순번의 최대값을 의미한다. 또한 Xn은 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 n인 전자가격표시기(220)의 좌표, Xn '은 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 n인 전자가격표시기(220)의 좌표를 의미한다.In this case, S denotes the total distance traveled by the electronic price indicator 220. And n is the batch order number of the product, m is the maximum value of the batch order of the product. In addition, X n is the coordinates of the electronic price indicator 220 in which the placement order of the product is n in the previously applied display guide 610, X n ' is the electronic price indicator in which the arrangement order of the product is n in the changed display guide 620 ( 220).
즉, 최단거리 기준 방법은 변경된 진열가이드(620)의 상품의 배치 순번 0부터 상품의 배치 순번의 최대값까지의 전자가격표시기(220)의 좌표와 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)의 상품의 배치 순번 0부터 상품의 배치 순번의 최대값까지의 전자가격표시기(220)의 좌표와의 차이를 합하여 연산한 S가 최소화되도록 변경 리스트를 선정하는 방법이다.That is, the shortest distance reference method is the coordinates of the electronic price indicator 220 from the batch order number 0 of the changed display guide 620 to the maximum value of the batch order number of the product, and the batch order of the product of the previously applied display guide 610. This is a method of selecting a change list so that the calculated S is minimized by summing the difference from the coordinates of the electronic price indicator 220 from 0 to the maximum value of the batch order of products.
즉, 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)와 변경된 진열가이드(620)가 도 6과 같을 때, 상품 5에 대응되는 전자가격표시기(220)를 활용하는 것보다 상품 6에 대응되는 전자가격표시기(220)를 새로 배치되는 상품 7에 대응시키는 것이 전자가격표시기(220)의 위치 변경을 최소화할 수 있다. 따라서 서버(210)는 상품 6에 대응되는 전자가격표시기(220)가 상품 7에 대응되도록 변경리스트를 생성한다.That is, when the pre-applied display guide 610 and the modified display guide 620 are the same as in FIG. 6, the electronic price indicator 220 corresponding to the product 6 is used rather than using the electronic price indicator 220 corresponding to the product 5 Corresponding to the newly placed product 7 can minimize the position change of the electronic price indicator 220. Therefore, the server 210 generates a change list so that the electronic price indicator 220 corresponding to the product 6 corresponds to the product 7.
보다 상세히, 증가기준 방법을 적용하여 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)의 상품의 배치 순서 n을 변경된 진열가이드(620)의 상품의 배치 순서 n으로 변경하는 경우와, 감소기준 방법을 적용하여 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)의 상품의 배치 순서 n을 변경된 진열가이드(620)의 상품의 배치 순서 n+1로 변경하는 경우의 전자가격표시기(220)의 이동거리를 비교해서 더 짧은 이동을 가지도록 선정한다.In more detail, the case in which the arrangement order n of the products of the pre-applied display guide 610 is changed to the arrangement order n of the products of the changed display guide 620 by applying the increase reference method, and the pre-applied display by applying the reduction reference method When changing the arrangement order n of the products of the guide 610 to the arrangement order n+1 of the products of the changed display guide 620, the moving distance of the electronic price indicator 220 is compared and selected to have a shorter movement. .
증가기준 방법을 이용하여, 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 0인 전자가격표시기(220)를 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 0인 전자가격표시기(220)에 대응시키면, 전자가격표시기(220)의 이동거리는 |20-20|과 같이 연산되어 0 이다.Using the increase standard method, the electronic display device 220 having a batch order number of 0 in the changed display guide 620 is applied to the electronic price display unit 220 with a product batch order number of 0 in the previously applied display guide 610. Correspondingly, the moving distance of the electronic price indicator 220 is calculated as |20-20| and is 0.
감소기준 방법을 이용하여, 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 0인 전자가격표시기(220)를 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 1인 전자가격표시기(220)에 대응시키면, 전자가격표시기(220)의 이동거리는 |30-20|과 같이 연산되어 10 이다.Using the reduced standard method, the electronic display device 220 having a batch order number of 0 in the changed display guide 620 is applied to the electronic price display unit 220 with a batch order of 1 product in the previously applied display guide 610. Correspondingly, the moving distance of the electronic price indicator 220 is calculated as |30-20| and is 10.
따라서 서버(210)는 이동거리가 더 짧은 증가기준 방법을 선택 하여 변경리스트를 생성한다.Therefore, the server 210 selects an increase reference method with a shorter moving distance to generate a change list.
좌측기준 방법을 이용하여, 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 1인 전자가격표시기(220)를 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 1인 전자가격표시기(220)에 대응시키면, 전자가격표시기(220)의 이동거리는 |30-30|과 같이 연산되어 0 이다.Using the left reference method, the electronic display device 220 having a batch order number of 1 in the changed display guide 620 is applied to the electronic price display unit 220 with a batch order of 1 product in the previously applied display guide 610. Correspondingly, the moving distance of the electronic price indicator 220 is calculated as |30-30| and is 0.
감소기준 방법을 이용하여, 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 1인 전자가격표시기(220)를 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 2인 전자가격표시기(220)에 대응시키면, 전자가격표시기(220)의 이동거리는 |40-30|과 같이 연산되어 10 이다.Using the reduced standard method, the electronic display device 220 having a batch order number of 1 in the changed display guide 620 is applied to the electronic price display unit 220 having a product batch order 2 of 2 in the previously applied display guide 610. Correspondingly, the moving distance of the electronic price indicator 220 is calculated as |40-30| and is 10.
따라서 서버(210)는 이동거리가 더 짧은 증가기준 방법을 선택하여 변경리스트를 생성한다. 감소기준 방법을 이용하여, 변경된 진열가이드(620)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 2인 전자가격표시기(220)를 기 적용된 진열가이드(610)에서 상품의 배치 순번이 2인 전자가격표시기(220)에 대응시키면, 전자가격표시기(220)의 이동거리는 |40-40|과 같이 연산되어 0 이다.Therefore, the server 210 selects an increase reference method having a shorter moving distance to generate a change list.
