INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240130004 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS, INFORMATION PROCESSING SYSTEM, INFORMATION PROCESSING METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes an information processing apparatus that identifies communication terminals in disaster regions and generates charging data for communication from these terminals.
- The acquisition unit gathers information about the position of communication terminals connected to a network.
- The first identification unit identifies a communication terminal in a disaster region as a first disaster response terminal.
- The second identification unit identifies a second disaster response terminal communicating with the first disaster response terminal.
- The charging unit generates charging data for communication, excluding communication from the identified disaster response terminals.
Potential Applications
This technology could be applied in emergency response systems to prioritize communication from disaster response terminals during crises.
Problems Solved
This technology helps in efficiently managing communication resources during disasters by exempting charging for specific terminals.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved communication coordination during emergencies and optimized resource allocation for disaster response efforts.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications of this technology could include integrating it into communication networks used by emergency response organizations.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be systems that prioritize communication from specific terminals based on predefined criteria during emergencies.
Unanswered Questions
How does the apparatus determine the communication record between the first and second disaster response terminals?
The abstract does not provide details on the specific method used to identify the communication record between the disaster response terminals.
What measures are in place to ensure the accuracy of identifying disaster response terminals?
The abstract does not mention any verification or validation processes to confirm the identification of communication terminals in disaster regions.
Original Abstract Submitted
an information processing apparatus () includes: an acquisition unit () that acquires information regarding a position of each of a plurality of communication terminals connected to a network; a first identification unit () that identifies a communication terminal located in a disaster region among the plurality of communication terminals as a first disaster response terminal based on an acquisition result; a second identification unit () that identifies a second disaster response terminal communicating with the first disaster response terminal based on a communication record; and a charging unit () that generates charging data for communication such that charging is not performed for communication from the first disaster response terminal and the second disaster response terminal.
