Specifically, the restaurant 20 is provided with a transmission unit (not shown) for transmitting a beacon signal. The beacon signal includes information on the usage status of the restaurant 20 (the status of waiting in line). Upon receiving the beacon signal, the terminal 10 displays a screen as illustrated in FIG. 3 based on the operation of the application. On the screen illustrated in FIG. 3, among a plurality of users waiting in line, the user who is scheduled to be guided next (next guidance schedule number) and the number of groups of users who are waiting in line are displayed. To. The guide schedule number is a number given to the user by the restaurant 20. Further, on the screen illustrated in FIG. 3, a "new reception" button 12 to be operated when the user of the terminal 10 wishes to wait in line is displayed.
 また、端末10は、ユーザがレストラン20を利用する際に、通信部101と近距離無線通信を行うことにより(又は、ローカルエリアネットワークを介して)、利用情報を情報処理装置100に送信することとしてもよい。
 また、端末10は、公衆通信ネットワーク(インターネット)を介して、利用情報を情報処理装置100に送信することとしてもよい。すなわち、端末10は、レストラン20に入店する前の段階で、レストラン20の順番待ちを申し込むこととしてもよい。
 また、端末10は、利用情報を記録した2次元情報コード(例えば、QRコード(登録商標)及びバーコード等)を表示部11に表示し、情報処理装置100の読取部(カメラ部)(図示せず)によって2次元情報コードを読み取らせることで、端末10から情報処理装置100に利用情報を送信(伝達)することとしてもよい。
 なお、端末10は、上記の例に限定されず、種々の方法により利用情報を情報処理装置100に送信することとしてもよい。
Further, when the user uses the restaurant 20, the terminal 10 transmits usage information to the information processing device 100 by performing short-range wireless communication with the communication unit 101 (or via a local area network). May be.
Further, the terminal 10 may transmit usage information to the information processing device 100 via a public communication network (Internet). That is, the terminal 10 may apply for waiting for the restaurant 20 before entering the restaurant 20.
Further, the terminal 10 displays a two-dimensional information code (for example, a QR code (registered trademark), a barcode, etc.) in which usage information is recorded on the display unit 11, and a reading unit (camera unit) of the information processing device 100 (FIG. By having the two-dimensional information code read by (not shown), the usage information may be transmitted (transmitted) from the terminal 10 to the information processing device 100.
The terminal 10 is not limited to the above example, and the usage information may be transmitted to the information processing device 100 by various methods.
 利用情報は、例えば、レストラン20の利用を希望することを示す情報である。利用情報には、グループの人数(順番待ちをする人数)、及び、禁煙席若しくは喫煙席の希望等、種々の希望座席の情報が含まれていてもよい。それらの情報は、例えば、ユーザの操作に基づいて端末10(アプリ)に入力される。
 利用情報には、例えば、端末10(ユーザ)を識別するための識別情報が含まれていてもよい。情報処理装置100は、識別情報により端末10(ユーザ)を特定することが可能である。また、利用情報には、例えば、情報処理装置100から端末10に情報を送信するための連絡先情報(一例として、予め登録されたアドレス)が含まれていてもよい。
The usage information is, for example, information indicating that the restaurant 20 is desired to be used. The usage information may include information on various desired seats such as the number of people in the group (the number of people waiting in line) and the desire for non-smoking seats or smoking seats. The information is input to the terminal 10 (application) based on, for example, a user operation.
The usage information may include, for example, identification information for identifying the terminal 10 (user). The information processing device 100 can identify the terminal 10 (user) by the identification information. Further, the usage information may include, for example, contact information (for example, a pre-registered address) for transmitting information from the information processing device 100 to the terminal 10.
 なお、端末10は、ユーザがレストラン20を利用する際に、上述したアプリの処理に基づいて、そのユーザの健康状態(例えば、発熱の有無等)の確認を求めることとしてもよい。一例として、端末10は、表示部11に健康状態が「良好」か「不良」かを選択させるボタン、又は、表示部11に発熱の症状が「有る」か「無い」かを選択させるボタン等を表示して、ユーザに確認を求める操作を行わせてもよい。端末10は、その確認の結果としてのユーザの健康状態等を示す健康状態情報を利用情報に含めてもよい。この場合、情報処理装置100は、利用情報(健康状態情報)に基づいて、健康状態が不良のユーザが来店した場合には、レストラン20の従業員にそのユーザの健康状態を詳しく確認させるための警告を表示部103に表示することとしてもよい。例えば、レストラン20の従業員は、健康状態情報に基づいてユーザが発熱の症状を有する場合には、その場にてユーザの検温を行ってもよく、発熱以外の他の症状が有るか否かの確認を行ってもよい。例えば、レストラン20の従業員は、ユーザの健康状態に問題が無ければレストラン20においてサービスを提供する一方、ユーザの健康状態に問題が有れば保健管理局に健康状態に問題のあるユーザが来店したことを通報し、そのユーザに対するサービスの提供を拒否することとしてもよい。 Note that when the user uses the restaurant 20, the terminal 10 may request confirmation of the user's health condition (for example, the presence or absence of fever) based on the processing of the above-mentioned application. As an example, the terminal 10 has a button that allows the display unit 11 to select whether the health condition is "good" or "poor", or a button that allows the display unit 11 to select whether the symptom of fever is "present" or "not present". May be displayed and the user may be asked to confirm. The terminal 10 may include health condition information indicating the health condition of the user as a result of the confirmation in the usage information. In this case, the information processing device 100 is for having an employee of the restaurant 20 confirm the health condition of the user in detail when a user with a poor health condition visits the store based on the usage information (health condition information). The warning may be displayed on the display unit 103. For example, the employee of the restaurant 20 may measure the temperature of the user on the spot when the user has a symptom of fever based on the health condition information, and whether or not there is a symptom other than the fever. May be confirmed. For example, an employee of restaurant 20 provides a service at restaurant 20 if there is no problem with the user's health condition, while a user with a health condition visits the health management bureau if there is a problem with the user's health condition. You may report that you have done so and refuse to provide the service to that user.
 情報送信制御部112は、利用情報受付部111によって利用情報を受け付けた場合、所定の情報を端末10に送信する。具体的な一例としては、情報送信制御部112は、利用情報受付部111によって複数の端末10それぞれから利用情報を受け付けた場合、利用情報の数、及び、利用情報に含まれる人数に基づいて、所定の情報として待ちの順番、待ち人数及び待ち時間のうち少なくとも1つの情報を端末10に送信する。 When the information transmission control unit 112 receives the usage information by the usage information reception unit 111, the information transmission control unit 112 transmits predetermined information to the terminal 10. As a specific example, when the information transmission control unit 112 receives the usage information from each of the plurality of terminals 10 by the usage information receiving unit 111, the information transmission control unit 112 is based on the number of usage information and the number of people included in the usage information. At least one of the waiting order, the number of people waiting, and the waiting time is transmitted to the terminal 10 as predetermined information.
 情報処理装置100は、複数の端末10から利用情報を受け付けることが可能である。情報送信制御部112は、利用情報を受け付けると、利用情報を受け付けた数(待ち数(組数))及びグループ人数をカウントする。情報処理装置100は、例えば、利用情報を受け付けた数と、レストラン20の座席の情報とに基づいて、レストランの座席よりも利用情報を受け付けた数が多い場合には、順番待ちが生じていること(順番待ちのグループ数及び順番待ちをしている人数)を把握することができる。 The information processing device 100 can receive usage information from a plurality of terminals 10. When the information transmission control unit 112 receives the usage information, the information transmission control unit 112 counts the number of received usage information (waiting number (group number)) and the number of people in the group. For example, when the information processing apparatus 100 receives more usage information than the restaurant seats based on the number of receptions of usage information and the seat information of the restaurant 20, a waiting list occurs. It is possible to grasp that (the number of groups waiting in line and the number of people waiting in line).
 また、着席していたユーザは、例えば、料理を食べ終わって退店する際に会計を行う。情報処理装置100は、ユーザが会計を行う際の時間(退店時間)と、そのユーザが入店した際に入力された時間(入店時間)とを取得することにより、ユーザの滞在時間を把握することが可能である。入店時間は、例えば、利用情報受付部111によって利用情報を受け付けた時間、又は、ユーザが入店した際に従業員が情報処理装置100に入力した時間等である。また、退店時間は、上記の例示に限らず、例えば、ユーザが退店する際に従業員が情報処理装置100に入力した時間であってもよい。
 端末10から送信される利用情報には識別情報が含まれてもよい。端末10を所有するユーザを案内した座席番号は、従業員によって情報処理装置100に入力されてもよい。ユーザが退店する際には、退店するユーザの座席番号を従業員によって情報処理装置100に入力されてもよい。これにより、入店したユーザと、退店したユーザとを、対応付けることができる。
In addition, the seated user, for example, makes a payment when he / she finishes eating a dish and leaves the store. The information processing device 100 obtains the user's staying time by acquiring the time when the user performs accounting (store exit time) and the time input when the user enters the store (store entry time). It is possible to grasp. The store entry time is, for example, the time when the usage information is received by the usage information reception unit 111, the time when the employee enters the information processing device 100 when the user enters the store, and the like. Further, the store leaving time is not limited to the above example, and may be, for example, the time input by the employee to the information processing device 100 when the user leaves the store.
The usage information transmitted from the terminal 10 may include identification information. The seat number that guides the user who owns the terminal 10 may be input to the information processing device 100 by the employee. When the user leaves the store, the seat number of the user leaving the store may be input to the information processing device 100 by the employee. As a result, the user who entered the store and the user who left the store can be associated with each other.
 情報送信制御部112は、例えば、複数のユーザの滞在時間を取得することに基づいて、平均滞在時間を取得する。情報送信制御部112は、例えば、曜日ごと、時間帯ごと、ユーザの性別ごと、又は、グループの人数ごとに、複数の平均滞在時間を取得することとしてもよい。 The information transmission control unit 112 acquires the average staying time based on, for example, acquiring the staying time of a plurality of users. The information transmission control unit 112 may acquire a plurality of average staying times for each day of the week, each time zone, each gender of the user, or each number of people in the group.
 情報送信制御部112は、レストラン20において順番待ちが生じている場合、利用情報受付部111によって利用情報を受け付けたユーザの端末10に対して、既に順番待ちをしているユーザの待ち数及びグループ人数を送信するよう通信部101を制御する。
 また、情報送信制御部112は、利用情報受付部111によって利用情報を受け付けたユーザの端末10に対して、既に順番待ちをしているユーザの待ち数及びグループ人数、並びに、平均滞在時間に基づいて待ち時間を推定し、その待ち時間を送信するよう通信部101を制御する。
When the restaurant 20 is waiting in line, the information transmission control unit 112 waits for a user who has already waited in line for the terminal 10 of the user who has received the usage information by the usage information receiving unit 111. The communication unit 101 is controlled to transmit the number of people.
Further, the information transmission control unit 112 is based on the number of waiters and the number of groups of users who are already waiting in line for the terminal 10 of the user who has received the usage information by the usage information reception unit 111, and the average stay time. The communication unit 101 is controlled to estimate the waiting time and transmit the waiting time.
 なお、情報送信制御部112は、例えば、順番待ちをしているユーザが順次着席していく場合、待ち数、待ち人数、及び、待ち時間を更新し、更新した情報を端末10に送信するよう通信部101を制御してもよい。情報送信制御部112は、1番目に順番待ちをしているユーザが着席した場合、待ち数、待ち人数及び待ち時間から1番目に順番待ちをしていたユーザの情報を減算し、2番目以降に順番待ちをしているユーザの端末10に対して、減算した結果を送信することとしてもよい。 The information transmission control unit 112 updates the number of waits, the number of people waiting, and the waiting time, and transmits the updated information to the terminal 10, for example, when the users waiting in line are seated in sequence. The communication unit 101 may be controlled. When the first waiting user is seated, the information transmission control unit 112 subtracts the information of the first waiting user from the number of waiting, the number of waiting people, and the waiting time, and the second and subsequent users. The subtracted result may be transmitted to the terminal 10 of the user who is waiting in line.
 図4は、端末の表示部に表示される画面の一例について説明するための第2の図である。
 端末10は、図3に例示する画面とは別画面として、図4に例示する画面を表示部11に表示することとしてもよい。すなわち、端末10は、情報処理装置100から送信された待ち数、待ち人数及び待ち時間の情報を受け付けると、図4に例示するように、待ち数、待ち人数及び待ち時間を表示部11に表示する。
FIG. 4 is a second diagram for explaining an example of a screen displayed on the display unit of the terminal.
The terminal 10 may display the screen illustrated in FIG. 4 on the display unit 11 as a screen separate from the screen illustrated in FIG. That is, when the terminal 10 receives the information on the number of waits, the number of people waiting, and the waiting time transmitted from the information processing device 100, the number of waits, the number of people waiting, and the waiting time are displayed on the display unit 11 as illustrated in FIG. To do.
 品物情報受付部113は、端末10からレストラン20においてユーザが提供を希望する品物に関する品物情報を受け付ける。品物は、例えば、レストラン20が提供する料理である。ユーザは、レストラン20において順番待ちをしている際に、料理を注文することができる。

For example, the terminal 10 can activate the above-mentioned application based on the operation of the user and order food through the application. As a specific example, the terminal 10 displays a dish order screen based on the user's operation, and transmits information on the selected dish to the information processing device 100 as item information.
The item information receiving unit 113 receives the item information via the communication unit 101. The item information receiving unit 113 stores the item information in the storage unit 102.
 順番通知部114は、利用情報受付部111によって利用情報を受け付けることに基づいたレストラン20の利用待ちの順番が端末10を所有するユーザの番になった場合、ユーザの順番になったことを端末10に通知する。
 図5は、情報処理装置の表示部に表示される画面の一例について説明するための図である。
 図5に例示するように、情報処理装置100は、順番待ちをしているユーザを表示部103に表示することとしてもよい。図5に例示する場合では、順番、順番待ちをしているユーザ、人数、及び、禁煙席若しくは喫煙席の希望が表示部103に表示される。また、図5に例示する場合、順番待ちをしているユーザの欄に隣接して、ユーザを座席に案内するためのボタン(呼び出しボタン(「選択」ボタン201))が表示される。従業員が「選択」ボタン201を操作することに基づいて、順番通知部114は、対応するユーザの端末10に対して通知を行う。
 順番通知部114は、順番になったことを通知したユーザ(端末10)に対しては、通知したことを示す情報(一例として、「済」と記載した画像202)を表示部103に表示することとしてもよい。
 また、順番通知部114は、順番になったことをユーザ(端末10)に通知したにもかかわらず、ユーザが不在だった場合、不在だったことを示す情報(「不在」と記載した画像(図示せず))を表示部103に表示することとしてもよい。なお、ユーザが不在の場合とは、例えば、ユーザがトイレに行っている場合、又は、ユーザが一時的に外出している場合等である。
When the order of waiting for use of the restaurant 20 based on the reception of usage information by the usage information receiving unit 111 is the turn of the user who owns the terminal 10, the order notification unit 114 indicates that the user's turn has been reached. Notify 10.
FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining an example of a screen displayed on the display unit of the information processing apparatus.
As illustrated in FIG. 5, the information processing apparatus 100 may display the user waiting in line on the display unit 103. In the case illustrated in FIG. 5, the order, the number of users waiting in line, and the desire for a non-smoking seat or a smoking seat are displayed on the display unit 103. Further, in the case of the example shown in FIG. 5, a button (call button (“selection” button 201)) for guiding the user to the seat is displayed adjacent to the column of the user waiting in line. Based on the employee operating the "selection" button 201, the order notification unit 114 notifies the terminal 10 of the corresponding user.
The order notification unit 114 displays on the display unit 103 information indicating that the user (terminal 10) has been notified that the order has been given (for example, an image 202 described as “completed”). It may be that.
Further, when the user is absent even though the order notification unit 114 notifies the user (terminal 10) that the order has been reached, the information indicating that the user was absent (an image described as "absent"("Absence"). (Not shown)) may be displayed on the display unit 103. The case where the user is absent is, for example, the case where the user is going to the bathroom or the case where the user is temporarily out.
 端末10は、順番通知部114からの通知を受け付けると、例えば、順番が来たことを示す音若しくは音声をスピーカから出力し、又は、順番が来たことを示す画像を表示部11に表示する。
 端末10は、例えば、ユーザの操作に基づいて上述したアプリが動作することに基づいて、順番通知部114からの通知に応答することとしてもよい。端末10は、例えば、順番通知部114からの通知を受け付けると「応答」ボタン(図示せず)を表示部11に表示し、ユーザよって「応答」ボタンが操作されると、応答情報を情報処理装置100に送信することとしてもよい。情報処理装置100は、例えば、応答情報を受け付けると、ユーザがレストラン20内で順番待ちをしていることを示す情報を表示部103に表示することとしてもよい。これにより、従業員は、ユーザがレストラン20内に居ることを把握でき、そのユーザを座席に案内することができる。
When the terminal 10 receives the notification from the turn notification unit 114, for example, the terminal 10 outputs a sound or voice indicating that the turn has come from the speaker, or displays an image indicating that the turn has come on the display unit 11. ..
The terminal 10 may respond to the notification from the turn notification unit 114, for example, based on the operation of the above-mentioned application based on the user's operation. For example, the terminal 10 displays a "response" button (not shown) on the display unit 11 when receiving a notification from the turn notification unit 114, and processes the response information when the "response" button is operated by the user. It may be transmitted to the device 100. When the information processing device 100 receives the response information, for example, the information processing device 100 may display information indicating that the user is waiting in the restaurant 20 on the display unit 103. As a result, the employee can grasp that the user is in the restaurant 20 and guide the user to the seat.
 ここで、順番通知部114は、レストラン20に空席ができた場合、積極的に順番待ちをしているユーザに対して、順番が来たことを通知することとしてもよい。例えば、順番通知部114は、記憶部102に記憶されるレストラン20の座席に関する座席情報(テーブル及び座席の情報)と、利用情報(グループの人数の情報)とに基づいて、順番待ちをしているユーザをすぐに案内するように、図5に例示する画面に、案内が可能であることを示す情報を表示することとしてもよい。より具体的には、順番通知部114は、グループの人数よりも座席数が多いテーブルが空いた場合、順番待ちの順位が最も早いユーザの欄に、又は、そのユーザの欄に隣接して、案内が可能であることを示す情報を表示する。なお、情報処理装置100は、会計システム(図示せず)と連動することにより、又は、従業員によってユーザが退店したことが入力された場合、座席が空いたことを把握することができる。この場合、順番通知部114は、案内が可能な座席番号を表示することとしてもよい。案内が可能であることを示す情報は、例えば、画像、シンボル、他と色を変える等である。その情報を見た従業員は、例えば、その情報に対応するユーザを案内するために、図5に例示する「選択」ボタン201を操作する。 Here, when the restaurant 20 becomes vacant, the turn notification unit 114 may notify the user who is actively waiting for the turn that the turn has come. For example, the turn notification unit 114 waits in order based on the seat information (table and seat information) regarding the seats of the restaurant 20 stored in the storage unit 102 and the usage information (information on the number of people in the group). Information indicating that the guidance is possible may be displayed on the screen illustrated in FIG. 5 so as to immediately guide the user. More specifically, when a table with more seats than the number of people in the group becomes available, the turn notification unit 114 puts it in the column of the user with the earliest waiting order, or adjacent to the column of that user. Display information indicating that guidance is possible. The information processing device 100 can grasp that a seat has been vacated by interlocking with an accounting system (not shown) or when an employee inputs that the user has left the store. In this case, the order notification unit 114 may display a seat number that can be guided. The information indicating that the guidance is possible is, for example, changing the color from an image, a symbol, or the like. The employee who sees the information operates, for example, the "selection" button 201 illustrated in FIG. 5 in order to guide the user corresponding to the information.
 品物情報通知部115は、待ちの順番が端末10を所有するユーザの番になった場合、品物情報受付部113によって受け付けた品物情報をレストラン20のキッチンに通知する。品物情報通知部115は、例えば、ローカルエリアネットワークを介して、品物情報をレストラン20のキッチンに通知する。レストラン20のキッチンには、表示部又はプリンタ等の出力装置(図示せず)が配される。出力装置は、品物情報(料理の注文内容)を出力する。 When the waiting turn is the user's turn to own the terminal 10, the item information notification unit 115 notifies the kitchen of the restaurant 20 of the item information received by the item information reception unit 113. The item information notification unit 115 notifies the kitchen of the restaurant 20 of the item information via, for example, a local area network. An output device (not shown) such as a display unit or a printer is arranged in the kitchen of the restaurant 20. The output device outputs item information (cooking order details).
 品物情報通知部115は、例えば、順番通知部114によって端末10に対して通知を行い、従業員によってユーザをすぐに座席に案内できる状態の場合、そのユーザの注文内容を記憶部102から読み出してキッチンの出力装置に送信する。
 ここで、品物情報通知部115は、例えば、通信部101によって端末10からの応答情報を受信した場合に、注文内容を出力装置に送信することとしてもよい。すなわち、品物情報通知部115は、順番通知部114によって端末10に通知することに応じて端末10から応答情報を受け付けた場合、品物情報をレストラン20のキッチンに通知する。
 又は、順番通知部114は、例えば、順番通知部114によってユーザの端末10に通知を行った後、従業員の操作に基づいて、注文内容を出力装置に送信することとしてもよい。
For example, the item information notification unit 115 notifies the terminal 10 by the turn notification unit 114, and when the employee can immediately guide the user to the seat, the item information notification unit 115 reads the order contents of the user from the storage unit 102. Send to the output device in the kitchen.
Here, the item information notification unit 115 may transmit the order contents to the output device, for example, when the communication unit 101 receives the response information from the terminal 10. That is, when the product information notification unit 115 receives the response information from the terminal 10 in response to the notification to the terminal 10 by the order notification unit 114, the product information notification unit 115 notifies the kitchen of the restaurant 20 of the product information.
Alternatively, the order notification unit 114 may, for example, notify the user's terminal 10 by the order notification unit 114, and then transmit the order contents to the output device based on the operation of the employee.
 また、品物情報通知部115は、品物情報に対応する品物の代金に関する代金情報を受け付けた場合、品物情報をレストラン20のキッチンに通知することとしてもよい。
 端末10は、品物情報(料理の注文内容)を情報処理装置100に送信した場合、ユーザの操作に基づいて、料理の代金を支払うことが可能である。端末10は、料理の代金を、例えば、電子マネー決済又はクレジットカード決済等の種々の決済方法により支払うことが可能である。端末10は、料理の代金の決済を行った場合、決済を行ったことを示す代金情報を情報処理装置100に送信する。
 品物情報通知部115は、通信部101によって端末10から代金情報を受信すると、その端末10を所有するユーザの注文内容をキッチンの出力装置に送信する。この場合、品物情報通知部115は、ユーザが着席した場合、又は、従業員がユーザを座席に案内する場合に、品物情報をレストラン20のキッチンに通知する。具体的な一例として、品物情報通知部115は、従業員がユーザを座席に案内する際にそのユーザの座席(一例として、座席番号等)を情報処理装置100に入力した場合、そのユーザが注文した品物情報と座席番号とを関連付けて、レストラン20のキッチンに通知する。
Further, when the item information notification unit 115 receives the price information regarding the price of the item corresponding to the item information, the item information may be notified to the kitchen of the restaurant 20.
When the terminal 10 transmits the item information (food order contents) to the information processing device 100, the terminal 10 can pay the price of the food based on the operation of the user. The terminal 10 can pay the price of food by various payment methods such as electronic money payment and credit card payment. When the payment for the food is made, the terminal 10 transmits the price information indicating that the payment has been made to the information processing device 100.
When the item information notification unit 115 receives the price information from the terminal 10 by the communication unit 101, the item information notification unit 115 transmits the order contents of the user who owns the terminal 10 to the output device of the kitchen. In this case, the item information notification unit 115 notifies the kitchen of the restaurant 20 of the item information when the user is seated or when the employee guides the user to the seat. As a specific example, when an employee guides a user to a seat and the user inputs the user's seat (for example, a seat number, etc.) into the information processing device 100, the item information notification unit 115 places an order for the user. Notify the kitchen of restaurant 20 by associating the item information with the seat number.
 また、上述した情報処理装置100は、他施設提案部116を備えていてもよい。
 すなわち、他施設提案部116は、利用情報受付部111によって複数の端末10から利用情報を受け付けた場合、利用情報の数が予め設定された第1閾値以上になると、1又は複数の他のレストラン21の利用情報の数を取得する。また、他施設提案部116は、他のレストラン21の利用情報の数が予め設定された第2閾値未満である他のレストラン21を端末10に提案する。レストラン20が多数のユーザで順番待ちをしている場合、来店したレストラン20ではなく他のレストラン21で食事をしたいと考えるユーザもいる。そのような場合のために、他施設提案部116は、自店の順番待ち数が多い場合、他店をユーザに提案する。
Further, the information processing device 100 described above may include another facility proposal unit 116.
That is, when the other facility proposal unit 116 receives usage information from a plurality of terminals 10 by the usage information reception unit 111, when the number of usage information becomes equal to or higher than a preset first threshold value, one or a plurality of other restaurants Acquire the number of usage information of 21. In addition, the other facility proposal unit 116 proposes to the terminal 10 another restaurant 21 in which the number of usage information of the other restaurant 21 is less than a preset second threshold value. When the restaurant 20 is waiting in line with a large number of users, some users may want to eat at another restaurant 21 instead of the restaurant 20 that visited the restaurant 20. For such a case, the other facility proposal unit 116 proposes another store to the user when the number of waiting numbers of the own store is large.
 具体的には、他施設提案部116は、複数の端末10それぞれから利用情報を受け付けた場合、受け付けた利用情報の数が第1閾値以上かを判断する。第1閾値は、適宜設定される。第1閾値は、一例として、順番待ちの時間が、ユーザが順番待ちを苦痛に感じ始める時間未満になるように適宜設定される。第1閾値は、曜日や時間帯に応じて適宜変更されてもよい。又は、第1閾値は、予想されるユーザの滞在時間に応じて適宜変更されてもよい。他施設提案部116は、自店(レストラン20)の過去の来客の推移に関する推移情報を取得して、その推移情報に基づいて自店の今後の来客数を予測することとしてもよい。他施設提案部116は、今後、来客数が多くなると予想される場合、その予想に応じて第1閾値を適宜変更することとしてもよい。一例として、他施設提案部116は、来客数が多くなると予想される場合、第1閾値を小さくすることとしてもよい。 Specifically, when the other facility proposal unit 116 receives usage information from each of the plurality of terminals 10, it determines whether the number of received usage information is equal to or greater than the first threshold value. The first threshold is set as appropriate. As an example, the first threshold value is appropriately set so that the waiting time is less than the time when the user starts to feel the waiting time in pain. The first threshold value may be changed as appropriate depending on the day of the week and the time zone. Alternatively, the first threshold value may be appropriately changed according to the expected staying time of the user. The other facility proposal unit 116 may acquire transition information regarding past visitor transitions of its own store (restaurant 20) and predict the future number of visitors of its own store based on the transitional information. If the number of visitors is expected to increase in the future, the other facility proposal unit 116 may appropriately change the first threshold value according to the expectation. As an example, the other facility proposal unit 116 may reduce the first threshold value when the number of visitors is expected to increase.
 他施設提案部116は、利用情報の数が第1閾値以上の場合、自店に隣接する他店(他のレストラン21)の利用情報の数を取得する。他施設提案部116は、他のレストラン21に配される情報処理装置100aからその店の利用情報の数を取得する。
 図6は、他のレストランの利用情報の数について説明するための図である。
 図6に例示する場合、他施設提案部116は、自店に隣接する他店(他のレストラン21)の情報として、レストランA、レストランB及びレストランC…それぞれにおける利用情報の数を取得する。他施設提案部116は、他店の利用情報を取得することにより、他店の順番待ちの状況を取得することができる。他施設提案部116は、他店(他のレストラン21)の利用情報の数が第2閾値未満の場合、その他店(他のレストラン21)をユーザに提案する。図6に例示する場合、他施設提案部116は、レストランAの利用情報の数(5)、レストランBの利用情報の数(9)、及び、レストランCの利用情報の数(2)…それぞれが第2閾値未満かを判断し、利用情報の数が第2閾値未満のレストランをユーザに提案する。
When the number of usage information is equal to or greater than the first threshold value, the other facility proposal unit 116 acquires the number of usage information of another store (another restaurant 21) adjacent to its own store. The other facility proposal unit 116 acquires the number of usage information of the store from the information processing device 100a arranged in the other restaurant 21.
FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the number of usage information of other restaurants.
In the case of the example shown in FIG. 6, the other facility proposal unit 116 acquires the number of usage information in each of the restaurant A, the restaurant B, the restaurant C, etc. as the information of the other store (other restaurant 21) adjacent to the own store. The other facility proposal unit 116 can acquire the waiting status of another store by acquiring the usage information of the other store. When the number of usage information of the other store (other restaurant 21) is less than the second threshold value, the other facility proposal unit 116 proposes the other store (other restaurant 21) to the user. In the case shown in FIG. 6, the other facility proposal unit 116 has the number of usage information of restaurant A (5), the number of usage information of restaurant B (9), the number of usage information of restaurant C (2), and so on. Determines whether is less than the second threshold, and proposes to the user a restaurant in which the number of usage information is less than the second threshold.
 第2閾値は、適宜設定される。なお、第2閾値は、例えば、第1閾値未満の数が設定される。他施設提案部116は、他店(他のレストラン21)の過去の来客の推移情報を取得して、その推移情報に基づいて他店の今後の来客数を予測することとしてもよい。他施設提案部116は、今後、他店の来客数が多くなると予想される場合、その予想に応じて第2閾値を適宜変更することとしてもよい。一例として、他施設提案部116は、他店の来客数が多くなると予想される場合、第2閾値を小さくすることとしてもよい。
 なお、他施設提案部116は、複数の他店(他のレストラン21)の利用情報の数を取得し、1又は複数の他店を提案することとしてもよい。
The second threshold is set as appropriate. As the second threshold value, for example, a number less than the first threshold value is set. The other facility proposal unit 116 may acquire the past visitor transition information of the other store (other restaurant 21) and predict the future visitor number of the other store based on the transition information. If the number of visitors to other stores is expected to increase in the future, the other facility proposal unit 116 may appropriately change the second threshold value according to the expectation. As an example, the other facility proposal unit 116 may reduce the second threshold value when the number of visitors to the other store is expected to increase.
The other facility proposal unit 116 may acquire the number of usage information of a plurality of other stores (other restaurants 21) and propose one or a plurality of other stores.
 ここで、他施設提案部116は、他のレストラン21の利用情報を取得する場合、まず自店から所定の第1距離内にある他のレストラン21の利用情報の数を取得して、その数が第2閾値未満であるかを判断することとしてもよい。他施設提案部116は、利用情報の数が第2閾値未満の他のレストラン21があった場合、その他のレストラン21をユーザに提案する。一方、他施設提案部116は、利用情報の数が第2閾値未満の他のレストラン21がなかった場合、自店から第2距離(第2距離>第1距離)内にある他のレストラン21の利用情報の数を取得することとしてもよい。他施設提案部116は、利用情報の数が第2閾値未満の他のレストラン21があった場合、その他のレストラン21をユーザに提案する。一方、利用情報の数が第2閾値未満の他のレストラン21がなかった場合、情報送信制御部112は、自店の所定の情報を端末10に送信することとしてもよい。 Here, when acquiring the usage information of the other restaurant 21, the other facility proposal unit 116 first acquires the number of usage information of the other restaurant 21 within a predetermined first distance from the own store, and the number thereof. May be determined if is less than the second threshold. When there is another restaurant 21 whose number of usage information is less than the second threshold value, the other facility proposal unit 116 proposes the other restaurant 21 to the user. On the other hand, if there is no other restaurant 21 whose usage information is less than the second threshold value, the other facility proposal unit 116 is the other restaurant 21 within the second distance (second distance> first distance) from its own store. It may be possible to acquire the number of usage information of. When there is another restaurant 21 whose number of usage information is less than the second threshold value, the other facility proposal unit 116 proposes the other restaurant 21 to the user. On the other hand, when there is no other restaurant 21 whose number of usage information is less than the second threshold value, the information transmission control unit 112 may transmit predetermined information of its own store to the terminal 10.
 また、上述した情報処理装置100は、利用判定部117及び優待情報制御部118を備えていてもよい。
 ユーザは、レストラン20において順番待ちをしていたのにも関わらず、自身の順番が来る前に退店してしまう(順番待ちをやめてしまう)可能性もある。また、ユーザは、料理を注文したにも関わらす、着席する前に退店してしまう可能性もある。このような場合、ユーザが従業員に退店する旨を伝えた後に退店するには問題にならない。しかし、ユーザが従業員に退店する旨を伝えずに退店した場合、順番待ち等の保留をしなければならず、レストラン20側にとって負担になる。このような負担を軽減するために、情報処理装置100は、利用判定部117及び優待情報制御部118を備える。
Further, the information processing device 100 described above may include a usage determination unit 117 and a preferential information control unit 118.
Even though the user has been waiting in the restaurant 20, there is a possibility that the user leaves the restaurant (stops waiting in line) before his / her turn comes. The user may also leave the restaurant before sitting down, even though he has ordered the food. In such a case, there is no problem in leaving the store after the user has informed the employee that the store will be closed. However, if the user leaves the restaurant without notifying the employee that the restaurant will be closed, the restaurant 20 must hold the waiting list, which is a burden on the restaurant 20 side. In order to reduce such a burden, the information processing device 100 includes a usage determination unit 117 and a preferential information control unit 118.
 利用判定部117は、順番通知部114によって通知をした場合、通知に応じてレストラン20を利用したか否かを判定する。順番通知部114によって通知を行った場合、上述したように、端末10は、応答情報を情報処理装置100に返信する。利用判定部117は、応答情報を受信したか否かを判定する。 When the order notification unit 114 gives a notification, the usage determination unit 117 determines whether or not the restaurant 20 has been used in response to the notification. When the order notification unit 114 gives a notification, the terminal 10 returns the response information to the information processing device 100 as described above. The usage determination unit 117 determines whether or not the response information has been received.
 優待情報制御部118は、利用判定部117の判定結果に応じて、次回、レストラン20を利用する際にユーザを優待する優待情報を端末10に送信する。優待情報制御部118は、利用判定部117によって応答情報を受信したと判定される場合、優待情報を端末10に送信するよう通信部101を制御する。優待情報制御部118は、例えば、同一のユーザが複数回レストラン20を利用して、そのユーザが所有する端末10から応答情報を受信したことが複数回ある場合、その回数が第3閾値以上の場合に優待情報を端末10に送信することとしてもよい。なお、優待情報制御部118は、例えば、同一のユーザが同一又は異なるレストラン20を複数回利用したことに際して受信した応答情報の数を集計し、集計した数が第3閾値以上の場合に優待情報を端末10に送信することとしてもよい。第3閾値は、適宜設定される。優待情報は、例えば、レストラン20を利用する際の割引券、及び、サイドオーダーを無料で提供する無料券等のクーポン情報である。優待情報は、上記の一例に限定されず、ユーザを優待することのできる種々の情報であってよい。
 この優待を提供することによって、ユーザは、レストラン20から退店せずに、順番待ちを続けると考えられる。
The preferential treatment information control unit 118 transmits to the terminal 10 the preferential treatment information that gives preferential treatment to the user the next time the restaurant 20 is used, according to the determination result of the usage determination unit 117. The preferential information control unit 118 controls the communication unit 101 to transmit the preferential information to the terminal 10 when it is determined by the usage determination unit 117 that the response information has been received. For example, when the same user uses the restaurant 20 multiple times and receives the response information from the terminal 10 owned by the user a plurality of times, the preferential information control unit 118 has a third threshold value or more. In some cases, the preferential treatment information may be transmitted to the terminal 10. The preferential information control unit 118 aggregates the number of response information received when the same user uses the same or different restaurants 20 multiple times, and when the aggregated number is equal to or greater than the third threshold value, the preferential information is aggregated. May be transmitted to the terminal 10. The third threshold is set as appropriate. The preferential treatment information is, for example, coupon information such as a discount coupon for using the restaurant 20 and a free coupon for providing a side order free of charge. The preferential treatment information is not limited to the above example, and may be various information that can give preferential treatment to the user.
By providing this preferential treatment, the user is considered to continue waiting in line without leaving the restaurant 20.
 上述した情報処理装置100の各部は、コンピュータの演算処理装置等の機能として実現されてもよい。すなわち、情報処理装置100の利用情報受付部111、情報送信制御部112、品物情報受付部113、順番通知部114、品物情報通知部115、他施設提案部116、利用判定部117及び優待情報制御部118は、コンピュータの演算処理装置等による、利用情報受付機能、情報送信制御機能、品物情報受付機能、順番通知機能、品物情報通知機能、他施設提案機能、利用判定機能及び優待情報制御機能としてそれぞれ実現されてもよい。

Each may be realized.
The information processing program can realize each of the above-mentioned functions in a computer. The information processing program may be recorded on a non-temporary recording medium that can be read by a computer, such as an external memory or an optical disk.
Further, as described above, each part of the information processing apparatus 100 may be realized by an arithmetic processing unit of a computer or the like. The arithmetic processing unit or the like is composed of, for example, an integrated circuit or the like.

 次に、一実施形態に係る情報処理方法について説明する。
 まず、第1の情報処理方法(処理の全体の流れ)について説明する。
 図7は、一実施形態に係る情報処理方法について説明するための第1のフローチャートである。
Next, the information processing method according to the embodiment will be described.
First, the first information processing method (overall flow of processing) will be described.
FIG. 7 is a first flowchart for explaining an information processing method according to an embodiment.
 ステップST101において、利用情報受付部111は、外部の端末10からレストラン20の利用を希望する利用情報を受け付ける。 In step ST101, the usage information reception unit 111 receives usage information desired to use the restaurant 20 from the external terminal 10.
 ステップST102において、情報送信制御部112は、ステップST101で利用情報を受け付けた場合、所定の情報を端末10に送信する。具体的には、情報送信制御部112は、複数の端末10それぞれから利用情報を既に受け付けている場合、利用情報の数、及び、利用情報に含まれる人数に基づいて、所定の情報として待ちの順番、待ち人数及び待ち時間のうち少なくとも1つの情報を端末10に送信する。 In step ST102, when the information transmission control unit 112 receives the usage information in step ST101, the information transmission control unit 112 transmits predetermined information to the terminal 10. Specifically, when the information transmission control unit 112 has already received usage information from each of the plurality of terminals 10, it waits as predetermined information based on the number of usage information and the number of people included in the usage information. At least one of the order, the number of people waiting, and the waiting time is transmitted to the terminal 10.
 ステップST103において、品物情報受付部113は、端末10からレストラン20においてユーザが提供を希望する料理に関する品物情報(注文内容を示す情報)を受け付ける。品物情報受付部113は、品物情報を記憶部102に記憶する。 In step ST103, the item information receiving unit 113 receives the item information (information indicating the order contents) related to the dish that the user desires to provide at the restaurant 20 from the terminal 10. The item information receiving unit 113 stores the item information in the storage unit 102.
 ステップST104において、順番通知部114は、待ちの順番が端末10を所有するユーザの番になったかを判断する。ユーザの順番になった場合(Yes)、処理は、ステップST105に進む。ユーザの順番になっていない場合(No)、処理は、ステップST104の判断が再度行われる。 In step ST104, the turn notification unit 114 determines whether the waiting order is the turn of the user who owns the terminal 10. When it is the user's turn (Yes), the process proceeds to step ST105. If it is not the user's turn (No), the determination in step ST104 is performed again in the process.
 ステップST105において、順番通知部114は、ユーザの順番になったことを端末10に通知する。
 端末10は、例えば、ユーザの操作に基づいて上述したアプリが動作することに基づいて、順番通知部114からの通知に応答することとしてもよい。この場合、端末10は、例えば、応答情報を情報処理装置100に送信する。
In step ST105, the turn notification unit 114 notifies the terminal 10 that it is the user's turn.
The terminal 10 may respond to the notification from the turn notification unit 114, for example, based on the operation of the above-mentioned application based on the user's operation. In this case, the terminal 10 transmits, for example, the response information to the information processing apparatus 100.
 ステップST106において、品物情報通知部115は、注文した料理の代金が支払い済みか、又は、ステップST105の通知に対して端末10が応答したかを判断する。すなわち、品物情報通知部115は、品物情報に対応する代金情報(ユーザが注文した料理の会計が終わっていることを示す情報)を受け付けているか、又は、ステップST105で端末10に通知することに応じて端末10から応答情報を受け付けたかを判断する。代金が支払い済みの場合、又は、端末10が応答した場合(Yes)、処理は、ステップST107に進む。代金が支払い済みでない場合、又は、端末10が応答しない場合(No)、処理は、ステップST108に進む。 In step ST106, the item information notification unit 115 determines whether the price of the ordered dish has been paid or whether the terminal 10 has responded to the notification in step ST105. That is, the item information notification unit 115 either accepts the price information corresponding to the item information (information indicating that the accounting of the dish ordered by the user has been completed), or notifies the terminal 10 in step ST105. It is determined whether the response information has been received from the terminal 10 accordingly. If the price has been paid, or if the terminal 10 responds (Yes), the process proceeds to step ST107. If the price has not been paid, or if the terminal 10 does not respond (No), the process proceeds to step ST108.
 ステップST107において、品物情報通知部115は、ステップST103で受け付けた品物情報をレストラン20のキッチン(上述した出力装置)に通知する。 In step ST107, the item information notification unit 115 notifies the kitchen (output device described above) of the restaurant 20 of the item information received in step ST103.
 ステップST108において、品物情報通知部115は、ステップST103で受け付けた品物情報をキャンセルする。例えば、品物情報通知部115は、品物情報を破棄する。
 ここで、品物情報通知部115は、ステップST106の処理から所定時間が経過した後に、品物情報を破棄することとしてもよい。又は、品物情報通知部115は、ステップST107の判断が所定回数以上行われた後に、ステップST106の判断がNoだった場合に、品物情報を破棄することとしてもよい。
In step ST108, the item information notification unit 115 cancels the item information received in step ST103. For example, the item information notification unit 115 discards the item information.
Here, the item information notification unit 115 may discard the item information after a predetermined time has elapsed from the process of step ST106. Alternatively, the item information notification unit 115 may discard the item information when the determination in step ST106 is No after the determination in step ST107 is performed a predetermined number of times or more.
 ステップST109において、利用判定部117は、レストラン20を利用したかを判断する。
 例えば、利用判定部117は、ステップST105の通知に対して端末10が応答した場合(情報処理装置100が端末10から応答情報を受け付けた場合)、ユーザがレストラン20を利用したと判断することとしてもよい。又は、利用情報判定部は、ステップST107で品物情報をキッチンの出力装置に通知した場合に、ユーザがレストラン20を利用したと判断することとしてもよい。一方、利用判定部117は、情報処理装置100が端末10から応答情報を受け付けていない場合、又は、ステップST108で品物情報をキャンセルした場合、ユーザがレストラン20を使用していないと判断することとしてもよい。
 ユーザがレストラン20を利用した場合(Yes)、処理は、ステップST110に進む。ユーザがレストラン20を利用していない場合(No)、処理は、終了する。
In step ST109, the usage determination unit 117 determines whether the restaurant 20 has been used.
For example, when the terminal 10 responds to the notification in step ST105 (when the information processing device 100 receives the response information from the terminal 10), the usage determination unit 117 determines that the user has used the restaurant 20. May be good. Alternatively, the usage information determination unit may determine that the user has used the restaurant 20 when the product information is notified to the kitchen output device in step ST107. On the other hand, the usage determination unit 117 determines that the user is not using the restaurant 20 when the information processing device 100 does not receive the response information from the terminal 10 or when the item information is canceled in step ST108. May be good.
When the user uses the restaurant 20 (Yes), the process proceeds to step ST110. If the user is not using the restaurant 20 (No), the process ends.
 ステップST110において、優待情報制御部118は、次回、ユーザがレストラン20を利用する際に利用できる優待情報を端末10に送信する。 In step ST110, the preferential treatment information control unit 118 transmits the preferential treatment information that can be used when the user uses the restaurant 20 next time to the terminal 10.
 次に、第2の情報処理方法(他のレストラン21を提案する場合の流れ)について説明する。
 図8は、一実施形態に係る情報処理方法について説明するための第2のフローチャートである。
Next, a second information processing method (flow when proposing another restaurant 21) will be described.
FIG. 8 is a second flowchart for explaining the information processing method according to the embodiment.
 ステップST201において、利用情報受付部111は、外部の端末10からレストラン20の利用を希望する利用情報を受け付ける。ステップST201の処理は、ステップST101の処理と同一であってもよい。 In step ST201, the usage information reception unit 111 receives usage information desired to use the restaurant 20 from the external terminal 10. The process of step ST201 may be the same as the process of step ST101.
 ステップST202において、他施設提案部116は、レストラン20において順番待ちをしているユーザの数が第1閾値以上かを判断する。すなわち、他施設提案部116は、ステップST201の処理の前に、他の1又は複数の端末10から既に受け付けている利用情報の数が第1閾値以上かを判断する。順番待ちの数が第1閾値以上の場合(Yes)、処理は、ステップST203に進む。順番待ちの数が第1閾値以上ではない場合(No)、処理は、図7に示すステップST102に進む。 In step ST202, the other facility proposal unit 116 determines whether the number of users waiting in line at the restaurant 20 is equal to or greater than the first threshold value. That is, the other facility proposal unit 116 determines whether the number of usage information already received from the other one or a plurality of terminals 10 is equal to or greater than the first threshold value before the process of step ST201. If the number of waiting turns is equal to or greater than the first threshold value (Yes), the process proceeds to step ST203. When the number of waiting lists is not equal to or greater than the first threshold value (No), the process proceeds to step ST102 shown in FIG.
