Abstract: Provided is a device, method and program enabling high-speed map matching while maintaining a precision of an analysis based on a map matching result even when event data is transmitted from numerous vehicles. A grid is obtained by the division of a region in which a road network exists into a latitude direction and a longitude direction by equal spaces based on data stored in the road data storage unit. A grid ID is unitarily assigned to each set of grids whose sets of arcs which are roads are common and arc passing the grid. An event grid matching unit correlates event data collected from a vehicle and a grid. When the number of pieces of event data correlated with the grid is large, a data selecting unit selects a part of the data. An event road matching unit correlates the selected event data and a road in the grid.

The event road matching unit correlates the selected event data and a road in the grid.

Abstract: In a computer system, an SQL as a content of data processing request by a database independent protocol (protocol connected to a DBMS) that is issued by an application 3110 is converted from an SQL for an old DB before a migration to an SQL for a new DBMS 3200, then converted into a protocol that depends on a new DBMS 3210, and then provided to the new DBMS 3210. This operation is realized by an extension DB connection middleware 3120 that is obtained by extending a DB connection middleware that does not depend on the DBMS or an application.

Abstract: Each time sequential data is generated by a data generation source (001), the data is inputted into a sequential data memory unit (002) and accumulated in a memory device. Each time sequential data is inputted, a sequence summary unit (003) creates a sequence approximation function that approximates the inputted sequential data and previously inputted sequential data. A summary result memory unit (008) stores the sequence approximation functions that were created by the sequence summary unit (003). At specified timing, an accumulated data summary unit (005) creates, from a specified range of sequential data that was accumulated in the sequential data memory unit (002), a collective approximation function that approximates that sequential data with that range as the domain.
