Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To propose a timetable preparation system not wasteful with the cooperation of timetable information of both normal work and revision work, wiping out the fact that timetable information input work had to be started several months before since the amount of revision work when revising a timetable is more than that of monthly normal work processing in a timetable editing system. SOLUTION: This timetable editing system is provided with a normal work processing part for processing steadily when preparing the timetable, a revision work processing part for processing from the revision data of a revised timetable obtained from the revised timetable, and a data base for storing data after the completion of the revision work and normal work. The normal work processing part is provided with a merging processing means for merging for the normal work using a first file stored with timetable information uncopied in the revision work out of timetable information at the completion of the revision work, a second file stored with timetable information undeleted in the revision work, and a third file stored with timetable information prepared in the revision work.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a timetable editing system, and provides a timetable editing system capable of simplifying a timetable creation process and a computer-readable storage medium created using the timetable editing system.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there are several types of timetables, such as a large timetable and a small pocket timetable, in which train numbers, train names, departure and arrival stations of railways, buses, ships, aircrafts, and the like are clearly displayed along with departure and arrival times. Type of timetable has been published.

[0003] This timetable includes information on the operation and operation of railways, buses, ships, aircrafts, etc., which are added, corrected, deleted, changed, etc., on a monthly basis. Modifications such as changes (hereinafter referred to as “ordinary work”) and modifications (such as significant additions, corrections, deletions, or changes made annually or seasonally) (hereinafter referred to as “revision work”) .

[0004] In particular, the timetable shows the type of train, the first station, the last station, the basic time of each station, the starting station of a line section,
It consists of terminal stations, stations and ancillary equipment of trains, train types, train names, stop classifications, operating days, etc.It also consists of a large amount of information on other buses, ships, aircraft, etc., such as business section and time Have been.

Conventionally, as described above, in order to simultaneously add, correct, delete, and change timetables of various forms (types), a timetable DB (database) unit is provided for each type of timetable. Was created and corrected for each one, resulting in poor work efficiency.In addition, since individual timetables were modified such as additions, corrections, deletions, and changes, human error occurred. There was a drawback that it was easy.

In addition, addition, correction, deletion,
In order to process changes and the like at the same time, it may be necessary to make corrections such as addition, correction, deletion and change of the same contents from the original timetable DB (database) unit for each issue type of the timetable. In such a case, all the information of the timetable DB (database) section is copied to the timetable DB (database) section for each type of timetable, and the copied individual timetable DB (database) section is copied. For each of them, corrections such as additions, corrections, deletions, and changes were made.
Therefore, it has been difficult to improve work efficiency and reduce correction errors.

[0007]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, the present invention proposes a timetable editing system, an editing method using the system, and a recording medium capable of executing work efficiently and without correction errors. .

[0008] The timetable includes, for railways, types of trains, starting stations, ending stations, basic times of each station, starting stations and ending stations of line sections, ancillary facilities of stations and trains, train types, train names, stop types,
It is composed of a large amount of information, such as operating sections and time, for other buses, ships, aircraft, etc., and is modified from all additions, corrections, deletions, changes, etc. If the timetable information is obtained after obtaining the timetable information, there is a possibility that the timetable will not be released in time for the monthly timetable, and an object of the present invention is to solve this problem.

[0009] In addition, depending on the train operating company, there may be cases in which the regular business in which additions, corrections, deletions, changes, and the like are made periodically is performed at different times. In this case, a route extending over different train operating companies may be used. In the ward, some train operating companies do not make corrections, some train operating companies make corrections, so timetable information of train operating companies that need correction, and train operations that do not require correction Company timetable information will be mixed, and if it is corrected for each route section, the amount of timetable information to be corrected will be enormous,
This could be a cause of erroneous correction, but the purpose is to solve this problem.

[0010] Further, in a period in which the normal business in which corrections such as additions, corrections, deletions, and changes are made periodically and the revision business in which major corrections are made every year overlap,
Since there are places where different corrections must be made to the same route section across different train operating companies, the amount of correction work is enormous compared to periodic corrections, and correction errors are more likely to occur. It is also an object to solve this problem.

Furthermore, in order to simultaneously process corrections such as addition, correction, deletion, and change of a plurality of timetables as in the prior art, a timetable DB (database) unit is used for each timetable issue type. Correction such as addition / correction / deletion / change of the same content must be performed. In such a case, all the information in the timetable DB (database) section is stored in the timetable DB for each type of timetable. (Database) part is duplicated, and duplication of duplication of work is required, such as adding, correcting, deleting, and modifying each copied timetable DB (database) part. This required unnecessary work, so reduction of this wasteful work was also required, and the timetable information used for the normal work and the revised work was linked, and a timetable creation system with no waste And an object thereof is to propose a recording medium obtained by the timetable editing method and the editing methods.

[0012]

[2] Description of Operation First, the normal business and the revised business of the present invention will be described.

In the normal business, the normal business processing unit 21 publishes a timetable in the beginning of January, for example, and stores the timetable DB for the December issue stored in the timetable DB (database) unit 12 in the middle of November. Based on the timetable information of the (database) unit 12, normal work for preparing a timetable for the January issue is started. The normal operation is completed in November, and the normal operation for preparing the timetable for the January issue is ended in early December.

In the revised business, the revised business processing unit 22
Then, the timetable DB (database) part is copied around the same mid-November. Thereafter, the work of the revision work is started, executed, and completed by the beginning of December. Thereafter, the amendment work will be terminated shortly after the beginning of December.

In the present invention, the ordinary work and the revised work are performed simultaneously.

In the revision business, as shown in FIG. 2, a new operation timetable management table T is provided in association with the train information table A to manage the timetable information in the revision business. I managed it.

In the train work category [T7] of the operation timetable management table T, the work category manages items such as a normal business, a business for a season in a certain area, and a major revision business.

Next, maintenance of the timetable DB (database) unit is performed for each work section specified in the train work section [T7] of the operation timetable management table T.

Thereafter, the work of merging the timetable information for all the work sections into one is performed. At this time, all special timetable information such as seasonal timetable information that is revised according to the season is deleted when it is no longer necessary.

<A> The peculiarity of simultaneous progress of normal work and revision work (1) Timetable information that can proceed simultaneously The table corresponding to the simultaneous progress of revision work is, for example, train information as shown in FIG. A table, a train time table, a train equipment table, a train operation table, a temporary train stop table, a train connection table, a direct train table before a train, and a direct train table after a train.

(2) Normal business For the copy from the normal business, all specified timetable information is copied. Note that if the same revised business already exists, copying cannot be performed systematically.

When it is desired to additionally copy a train newly registered in the normal operation, the train is copied using the additional copy function.

For the revision deletion, the timetable information to be deleted after the revision may be copied to the revision business and deleted.
The timetable information deleted and deleted is deleted after the merge.

In the merge process, time table information that has not been copied to the revision work remains after the merge process.

(3) Specific Example of Revised Business Hereinafter, referring to the drawings, a flowchart for copying from a normal business to a revised business (FIG. 4), a flowchart for a revised business (FIG. 5), and a flowchart for a revised data reading process (FIG. 6) This will be described with reference to a merge processing flowchart (FIG. 7).

FIG. 4 shows a flowchart for copying from a normal job to a revised job. An example in which the contents are stored in the timetable DB (database) unit 12 of the database when the normal business processing unit 21 outputs the composition of each monthly magazine, and the contents are installed in the revised business processing unit 22 and copied. (Step S40).

First, it is determined whether or not the revised business division already exists (S41). If the revised business division does not yet exist, a new work division for the revised business is created (S42). Select timetable information from normal business (S4
3). Next, the selected timetable information is copied to the revision work (S44). Next, the train referenced by the train ID is copied to the revised business (S45). Next, it is determined whether or not all of the trains in the timetable information have been completed (S46). If not completed, the process proceeds to step S45, and if completed, the revised copy work ends.

Next, FIG. 5 shows a flowchart of the copy of the revision deletion during the revision business. First, in the case of revision deletion (S50), it is determined whether or not the revision business category already exists (S51).
Move to 3. If the revised business category does not yet exist, a new work category for the revised business is created and registered and stored in the work category management table (S52). Next, it is determined whether timetable information exists in the revised business (S5).
3) If there is, go to step S56. If it does not exist, the time table information is selected from the normal business (S54), and the selected time table information is copied to the revised business (S55). If the copying has been completed, the train whose revision is to be deleted in the revision operation is selected (S56), and the deletion section of the train information table of the selected train is revised and deleted (S5).
7).

FIG. 6 shows a flowchart of a process of reading revised data during a revision business. First, a train ID, a line section code, a station code, and a work category of the revision work are designated for reading the revision data (S60) (S61). Next, the train time table is searched from the copied timetable information using the train ID, the line section code, the station code, and the work category of the revision work as keys (S62). Next, it is determined whether or not there is a corresponding record using the train ID, the line section code, the station code, and the work category of the revision work as keys (S63), and if there is a record, the process ends. If not present, the train time table is retrieved from the copied timetable information using the train ID, line code, station code and work classification of the normal work as keys (S64), and the revised data during the revised business is retrieved. The reading process ends.

FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram of a merge process for merging for a normal business after the end of the revised business. The database (timetable DB (database) unit 12) 121 before the start of the merge processing stores timetable information for each work category. Work classification 0 for normal business (31 + 32)
And the work division 1 (35 + 36) for the revised business,
The work category 1 includes time table information 32 copied from the normal business before the revision work, and then, at the end of the revision work, the work classification to be merged for the normal business is included in the copied time table information. 36 and the timetable information 35 deleted during the revision business, there is a work classification 3 (33) generated during the revision business and a work classification 2 (34) that is a work classification to be deleted during the revision business. , And a database 121.

In the work category 0 (for normal business), the work category 31 ′ that has not been copied to the revised business processing unit 22 is the file A (123), and the work category 36 that was not deleted in the revised business work category 1 is file A (123). 'Is a file B (124), which is a work category 3 (3
3 ′) is stored in each file as a file C (125). After that, the database 122 used by the normal business processing unit 21 after the merge processing is generated in the work classification 0 for the normal business in which the file A (31 ″) and the file B (36 ″) are merged, and in the revised business. Work category 3
And the work category 3 which is the file C (33 ″) from the database 122, and the regular work processing unit 21 executes the regular work in the work category 0 (3
1 "+36") can be installed and executed effectively. Here, in the database after the completion of the merge processing, in the work category 0 used for the normal business, the file A123 and the file B124 are in a mixed state.

FIG. 8 shows a flowchart of a merge process for merging for a normal business after the end of the revised business. In FIG. 8, files A to C are classified into recording media used for normal business by classification.

First, at the start of the merge process (S7
0), and select a revision job to be merged (S7).
2). Next, a revision job to be deleted such as a season revision train or a temporary train is selected (S73). One of the tables used in the above-described knitting table is selected (S74). Next, a record of a normal operation in which no record having the same train ID exists in the work section to be merged is stored in the file A (12).
Output and store in 3) (S75). Similarly, a record which has not been deleted in the work category to be merged is converted into a normal task and output / stored in the file B (124) (S76). Next, the time table information of the work categories to be merged and deleted is output and stored in the file C (125) (S77). Thus, all records in the table are deleted (S78). Next, the file A (12
The time table information of 3) is loaded and stored in each table corresponding to the above-mentioned editing table (S79). Next, the time table information of the file B (124) previously stored is loaded and stored in each table corresponding to the above-mentioned editing table (S80). next,
The time table information of the file C (125) stored earlier is loaded and stored in each table corresponding to the above-mentioned editing table (S
81). Next, it is determined whether there is any remaining table in the revised business (S82), and if there is any remaining table, the process proceeds to step S74. If there are no remaining tables, all merge processing ends.

As described above, the flowchart of each process has been described. However, the present timetable editing system is not limited to the above-described contents, and all the OSs for the timetable editing system can be used.
And the amount of software of the application program is large, so the case related to the present invention has been described.
Therefore, it should be added that the timetable editing system is not limited to these flowcharts and timetable information.

According to the present invention, in the timetable editing system, when the timetable is revised, the amount of work is larger than the monthly normal business processing, but the timetable information of the normal business processing and the revised business processing is linked. It is possible to improve the speed and to create and publish a timetable free from correction errors without the needless work of correcting each copy of the entire system.

Further, in the present timetable editing system, after the revision work is completed, necessary timetable information in the modified timetable information revised in the revision work from the database for the normal work is merged and reflected in the normal work. In addition, it is possible to bring about an effect that the amount of work of the ordinary work itself is drastically reduced.
