  • Patent number: 7284037
    Abstract: Provided is a generation and implementation system for the survey program, in which multi-faceted questions are easily generated as a survey program and distributed to portable terminals, a survey can be performed in a non-communicating state, and survey results of the survey program can be amassed at a management server without fail. A question preparation server receives an input of a question, configures an answer format for the question, generates a survey program configured to send the answers to a management server when a predetermined number of answers are inputted, and distributes the survey program to a portable terminal of a surveyor. At the time of survey, the question is displayed on the display unit of the portable terminal, an answer to the question is received via an input of the portable terminal and stored in a memory unit of the portable terminal, and a group of questions stored in the memory of unit is sent to the management server via a communication unit of the portable terminal.

  • Publication number: 20040023690
    Abstract: Provided are a remote counting system, a remote counting method, and a computer-readable medium, with which it becomes possible to achieve labor saving in tabulating work and to expedite the tabulating work. A remote counting system includes a portable terminal (2) that is capable of being carried to a counting place and a remote counting server (3) that is connected to the portable terminal (2) through a communication line. In this system, the portable terminal (2) sends a button pushing operation signal inputted by the pushing of an input button to the remote counting server (3) through the communication line. The remote counting server (3) identifies communication from the portable terminal (2), detects the button pushing operation signal from each portable terminal, records the number of operations for pushing the buttons of the portable terminal (2) on the basis of the detected button pushing operation signal, and performs tabulation.
