Abstract: An input assistance device includes at least one memory storing instructions and at least one processor configured to implement the stored instructions to execute a plurality of tasks. The plurality of tasks includes a display control task which causes a display device to display a plurality of first pattern images each corresponding to a different character, and by being triggered when any one of the plurality of first pattern images is designated, to display a plurality of second pattern images each corresponding to a word related to the character of the designated first pattern image surrounding the first pattern image as a reference so as to prompt an input of a word.

Abstract: Provided is a network setting information generation device capable of communicating with each of plural network devices and having a display control unit, a manipulation input unit, and an information generation unit. The display control unit displays figures corresponding to respective network devices on a display device. The manipulation input unit receives a manipulation for specifying a type of a virtual communication path to be formed between network devices and a manipulation for connecting plural ones of the figures along the virtual communication path. The information generation unit generates network setting information to be given to each of the network devices located at the two respective ends of the virtual communication path to form the virtual communication path, according to a connection mode of the figures on the display screen of the display device.
