  In the present invention, the mobile terminal includes a mobile communication terminal such as a mobile phone or a PHS (Personal Handyphone System) equipped with a so-called electronic money function, an IC card, and the like, and a mobile terminal including an IC chip. In this embodiment, an example in which the electronic money processing system of the present invention is applied to a ticket gate business processing system is shown. In this embodiment, an IC card is shown as an example of a portable terminal. In the present embodiment, the ticket gate business processing device 1 corresponds to an electronic money processing device, and the ticket gate 3 corresponds to a client terminal.

  An electronic money processing system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 1, the ticket gate processing system 100 includes a ticket gate processing unit 1, an IC card 2, a ticket gate 3, a HUB 4, and a network 5.

  The ticket gate business processing device 1 includes a transmission / reception unit 11, a main storage unit 13, an external storage unit 14, a processor group 15, and a control unit 12. The transmission / reception unit 11, the main storage unit 13, the external storage unit 14, and the processor group 15 are all connected to the control unit 12 via the internal bus 19.

  The transmission / reception unit 11 includes a network termination device or a wireless communication device connected to a network, and a serial interface or a LAN (Local Area Network) interface connected thereto. The transmission / reception unit 11 receives a plurality of ticket gate processing requests together with electronic money information from the ticket gate 3 via the network 5. The ticket gate processing request is information for causing the ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1 to perform ticket gate processing such as fare calculation and boarding / recording update. The electronic money information means data necessary for each ticket check process, including information for identifying an IC chip, information indicating the balance of electronic money recorded on the IC chip, and the like. In addition, the transmission / reception unit 11 transmits the electronic money information that has been ticket gate processed by the processors in the processor group 15 to the ticket gate 3 that has transmitted the electronic money information before the ticket gate processing is performed via the network 5.

  The main storage unit 13 includes a RAM (Random-Access Memory) and the like, and is used as a work area for the control unit 12.

The external storage unit 14 includes a non-volatile memory such as a flash memory, a hard disk, a DVD-RAM (Digital Versatile Disc Random Access Memory), a DVD-RW (Digital Versatile Disc ReWriteable), and the ticket handling process is performed by the control unit 12. A program 17 and processing request allocation information 18 to be executed are stored in advance.
Further, the external storage unit 14 supplies data stored in the program 17 to the control unit 12 according to an instruction from the control unit 12 and stores the data supplied from the control unit 12.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the process request allocation information 18 is information for identifying a ticket gate process corresponding to each ticket gate process request and a processor group including a plurality of processors optimized for performing the ticket gate process. . As shown in the figure, the ticket gate processing indicated by the ticket gate processing request α is the processing a, and the processor group including the processors optimized for performing the processing a is the processor group A.

The processor group 15 is provided for each ticket gate process, and includes a plurality of processors optimized for the ticket gate process as shown in FIG. A processor can execute one ticket gate process for one ticket gate request without being influenced by other processors.
The optimized processor will be described below.

The ticket gate process includes, for example, data collation, data calculation, data transmission / reception, and the like. Specifically, there are processes such as a charge table check, a negative list check, a charge calculation at an alighting station, and data transmission / reception in an entrance process and an exit process. These ticket gate processing applications can be classified according to patterns.
An optimized processor is a processor in an environment that conforms to one of these application patterns. By using an optimized processor, the response time can be shortened and the application performance can be improved, for example, the accuracy of the application can be improved.

  The processor to which the ticket gate processing request is allocated by the processor allocation unit 23 performs the ticket gate processing unique to each processor on the electronic money information acquired by the processor allocation unit 23 in response to the allocation of the ticket gate processing request.

  When the ticket gate processing by the processor is completed, each processor group 15 transmits the updated electronic money information to the transmission / reception unit 11.

The number of optimized processors included in each processor group 15 is the number necessary to reduce the waiting time to a predetermined time or less depending on the relationship with the maximum number of ticket gate processing requests that can be generated simultaneously from the plurality of ticket gates 3. It is.
For example, the expected value of the number of ticket gate processing requests generated simultaneously from each ticket gate 3 is calculated using a probability distribution according to the number of ticket gate processing requests generated. When the number of ticket gate processes indicated by the expected value is executed, the number of processors whose waiting time is equal to or less than a preset time is prepared.
The number of processors in each processor group 15 may not be the same. When the number of ticket gate processing requests received by the transmission / reception unit 11 exceeds the number of processors corresponding to the ticket gate processing, a general-purpose processor prepared in advance may be used.

  The control unit 12 includes a CPU (Central Processing Unit) and the like. The control unit 12 operates according to the program 17 stored in the external storage unit 14 and provides a function necessary for ticket gate transaction processing. The control unit 12 includes, as main functional units provided by the program 17, a processing determination unit 21, a processor group allocation unit 22, and a number of processor allocation units 23 corresponding to each processor group.

  The process discriminating unit 21 discriminates the ticket gate process corresponding to each ticket gate process request received by the transmission / reception unit 11 by reading the process request allocation information 18 stored in the external storage unit 14.

  Here, a case will be described as an example where the ticket gate processing requests received by the transmission / reception unit 11 are the three types of ticket gate processing request α, ticket gate processing request β, and ticket gate processing request γ. Each ticket gate processing request is, for example, a fee calculation processing request, an electronic money reduction processing request, or an entry processing request. The process determination unit 21 reads the process request allocation information 18 shown in FIG. 2 and checks the ticket gate process (process a, process b, ticket gate process request α, ticket gate process request β, ticket gate process request γ) corresponding to each ticket gate process request. Determine processing c). Specifically, the process determination unit 21 determines a charge calculation process, an electronic money reduction process, and an entry process as a ticket gate process corresponding to the charge calculation process request, the electronic money reduction process request, and the participation process request.

  Here, the case where three types of processing requests are generated by one reading from one ticket gate is illustrated, but the processing requests generated by one reading are not always three types. In addition, a ticket gate processing request may be generated from each of a plurality of ticket gates while a processor to be described later executes one process.

  The processor group allocation unit 22 specifies the processor group 15 corresponding to each ticket gate process determined by the process determination unit 21 by reading the process request allocation information 18. Further, the processor group assigning unit 22 assigns each ticket gate processing request and electronic money information received by the transmitting / receiving unit 11 to each identified processor group 15. The processor group 15 is specified by specifying the processor group 15 corresponding to the ticket gate process determined by the process determination unit 21 from the process request allocation information 18.

  Here, similarly to the above description, an example will be described in which the ticket gate processing determined by the processing determination unit is processing a, processing b, and processing c.

  The processor group allocating unit 22 reads the processing request allocation information 18 shown in FIG. 2 and processes a processor group A, a processor group B, and a processor group C that are processor groups corresponding to the ticket gate processes (process a, process b, and process c). , Specify.

  Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 4, the processor group allocating unit 22 sends the corresponding ticket gate processing requests (ticket gate processing request α, ticket gate processing) to the identified processor group 15 (processor group A, processor group B, processor group C). Request β, ticket gate processing request γ) and assigned electronic money information are transmitted.

  As shown in the figure, the processor group 15 includes a processor group 15 including a plurality of processors A optimized for performing the process a, and a processor group including a plurality of processors B optimized for performing the process b. 15 and a processor group 15 including a plurality of processors C optimized to perform the process c. Here, for example, in charge calculation processing, for example, necessary information such as a charge calculation table is stored, and a program for performing charge calculation processing is stored. It means that the environment is suitable for doing.

  The processor allocation unit 23 dynamically assigns each ticket gate processing request and electronic money information allocated by the processor group allocation unit 22 to the processors in each processor group 15 allocated by the processor group allocation unit 22 in a round-robin manner. assign. In addition, the processor allocation unit 23 allocates two or more ticket gate processing requests generated at intervals shorter than the time for one processor in the processor group 15 to execute one process to different processors.

  Here, in the above example in which the ticket gate processing request α is assigned to the processor group A by the processor group assigning unit 22, a case where there are a plurality of ticket gate processing requests α of the assigned ticket gate processing a will be described with reference to FIG. I will explain. Although only the processor group A will be described here, the same processing is performed for other processors.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the processor assignment unit 23 assigns the first ticket gate process a to the processor A (1) together with the electronic money information. Then, the processor allocation unit 23 allocates the second ticket gate process a together with the electronic money information to the processor A (2). The processor allocation unit 23 sets the empty processors A (n) in the processor group A in a queue, and sequentially assigns the ticket gate processes a at equal intervals. As shown in the figure, when assigning the fourth ticket gate process a, the ticket gate process a already assigned to the processor A (1) is completed. In this case, since the processor A (1) that has completed the ticket gate processing is set at the end of the queue, the assigned processor A (n) is the processor A (4).

  The IC card 2 is an IC card equipped with an electronic money function possessed by a passenger passing through the ticket gate 3.

  The ticket checker 3 is an automatic ticket checker that is used by passengers who use transportation, and reads information from the IC card 2 and writes information to the IC card 2. The ticket gate 3 includes a control unit 32 configured by a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or the like. The ticket gate 3 includes a read / write unit 31 and a transmission / reception unit 33 as functional units provided by the control unit 32 by loading a program.

  The read / write unit 31 is a non-contact IC card reader / writer capable of reading and writing electronic money information stored in the IC card 2. The read / write unit 31 sends the electronic money information read from the IC card 2 to the transmission / reception unit 33. Further, the read / write unit 31 receives the electronic money information updated by the ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1 from the transmission / reception unit 33 and writes it to the IC card 2. Thereby, the electronic money information stored in the IC card 2 is rewritten.

  The transmission / reception unit 33 transmits the information received from the read / write unit 31 to the ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1 as a ticket gate processing request for requesting the ticket gate processing. The ticket gate processing request includes electronic money information and identification information for ticket gate processing performed on the electronic money information. In addition, the transmission / reception unit 33 receives the updated electronic money information from the ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1 and sends it to the read / write unit 31.

  The HUB 4 performs a relay when communicating between one or more ticket gates 3 and the ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1.

  The network 5 connects the ticket gate 3 and the ticket gate processing apparatus 1 so that they can communicate with each other.

  The above is the configuration of the electronic money processing system 100.

  Next, the operation of the electronic money processing system 100 will be described using the flowchart shown in FIG. The electronic money processing system 100 operates by executing an IC card update process in the ticket checker 3 and a ticket check process in the ticket check processing apparatus 1.

  The IC card update process in the ticket gate 3 is started due to the passenger holding the IC card 2 over the read / write unit 31 of the ticket gate 3.

  When the passenger holds the IC card 2 over the read / write unit 31 of the ticket gate 3, the read / write unit 31 reads the electronic money information stored in the IC card 2 (step S11).

  The transmission / reception unit 33 receives the electronic money information read by the read / write unit 31 and receives a ticket gate processing request, which is information for causing the ticket gate business processing device 1 to execute the ticket gate processing, together with the received electronic money information. It transmits to the transmission / reception part 11 (step S12).

  The transmission / reception unit 11 of the ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1 receives the ticket processing request and the electronic money information from the transmission / reception unit 33 of the ticket gate 3 (step S21). Thereby, the ticket gate business processing in the ticket gate business processing device 1 is started.

  The process discriminating unit 21 discriminates the ticket gate process corresponding to the ticket gate process request received by the transmission / reception unit 11 by reading the process request allocation information 18 stored in the storage unit 13 (step S22).

  The processor group allocation unit 22 specifies the processor group 15 including the processor that performs the ticket gate processing determined by the processing determination unit 21 by reading the processing request allocation information 18 stored in the external storage unit 14 (step S23). Then, the processor group allocating unit 22 transmits the ticket gate processing request and the electronic money information received by the transmitting / receiving unit 11 to the identified processor group 15.

  The processor allocation unit 23 sequentially allocates the received ticket gate processing request and electronic money information to the free processors in the processor group 15 specified by the processor group allocation unit 22 (step S24). The processor to which these are assigned performs ticket gate processing and updates the electronic money information due to the ticket gate processing request being assigned (step S25). Then, the processor sends the updated electronic money information to the transmission / reception unit 11.

  The transmission / reception unit 11 transmits the updated electronic money information to the ticket checker 3 (step S26), and ends the ticket check processing in the ticket check processing device 1.

  The transmission / reception unit 33 of the ticket checker 3 receives the updated electronic money information from the ticket check transaction processing apparatus 1 (step S13).

  In response to receiving this electronic money information from the transmission / reception unit 33, the read / write unit 31 overwrites the IC card 2 held by the passenger. Thereby, the electronic money information stored in the IC card 2 is rewritten (step S14). In this way, the IC card update process in the ticket gate 3 is completed.

  As described above, when the IC card update process and the ticket gate business process according to the present embodiment are executed, the control unit 12 sends the ticket gate process to the processor group 15 including a processor optimized for each ticket gate process. Assign a request. Thereby, a stable and constant processing time can be ensured.

  Further, the control unit 12 circulates each processor in the processor group 15 and assigns a ticket gate process. In this way, by dynamically assigning processes in a round robin manner, the processing efficiency can be increased and the waiting time can be reduced, and as a result, the processing time can be increased.

(Modification)

In the above embodiment, the case where the present invention is applied to the ticket gate business process is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to the ticket gate business process, and other payment processes using the electronic money such as a billing process and a payment process using the electronic money. There may be.

  In the above-described embodiment, a plurality of processes in one job are targeted. However, a plurality of processes in a plurality of jobs may be targeted. In this case, a business number for identifying a business is assigned to the IC card, and a processor group corresponding to the business number is assigned in the processor group assignment. According to this configuration, it is only necessary to provide a business-specific processor only for different processes, and even for different tasks, the processors can be shared for common processes, and the facility cost can be reduced while reducing the facility cost. Can be matched.

  The ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment can be realized using a normal computer system, not a dedicated system. For example, the program 17 for executing the above operation is stored and distributed in a computer-readable recording medium (flexible disk, CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, etc.), and the program 17 is installed in the computer. Thus, the ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1 that executes the above-described processing may be configured. Alternatively, the ticket gate transaction processing apparatus 1 may be configured by storing the program 17 in a storage device included in a server device on a communication network such as the Internet and downloading it by a normal computer system.

  Further, when the function of the ticket gate processing device 1 is realized by sharing of an OS (operating system) and an application program, or by cooperation between the OS and the application program, only the application program portion is stored in a recording medium or a storage device. It may be stored.

  It is also possible to superimpose the program 17 on a carrier wave and distribute it via a communication network. For example, the program 17 may be posted on a bulletin board (BBS: Bulletin Board System) on a communication network, and the program 17 may be distributed via the network. The program 17 may be activated and executed in the same manner as other application programs under the control of the OS, so that the above processing can be executed.
