Abstract: A data processing device according to one aspect of the present invention includes an extractor configured to extract time-series data indicating observed values at points in time in an analysis range from a first point in time to a second point in time, and a first calculator configured to calculate a gradient of a linear function indicating a trend of change in the observed values in the analysis range to minimize an objective function. The objective function indicates a sum of multiplication values at the points in time within the analysis range, the multiplication value is a numerical value obtained by multiplying a square of a difference between a function value of the linear function and the observed value by a weighting coefficient, and the weighting coefficient is a numerical value that increases as an elapsed time from the first point in time to each point in time increases.

Abstract: A scheduling system for preparing an operational plan for a production process which is carried out by using a computer system with an improved easier programming method which does not require a human operator to have knowledge of computer programming. In the system, the operation to be scheduled is inputted as a plurality of input element rows or letter rows on a display field using a computer, a CRT display device, and various pointing devices, such as keyboard, mouse, etc. Function blocks which can assign predetermined program operations are located on the display field, and are used in combination, and are relocated to specify the operation contents and the operation order or the program, to thereby complete the logics for the scheduling.
