INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18623107 titled 'INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONTROLLING INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS

Simplified Explanation: An information processing apparatus allows for editing operations to change registered paper information, where the new information is stored separately from the original information.

  • The apparatus accepts editing operations to modify existing paper information.
  • If the type of the original paper information is the base paper, the new information is registered as the second paper information.
  • If the type of the original paper information is not the base paper, the new information overwrites the existing information.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Accepts editing operations for paper information.
  • Registers new information separately from the original.
  • Allows for overwriting of existing information based on the type of the original paper information.

Potential Applications: This technology could be used in document management systems, content editing software, and data processing applications.

Problems Solved:

  • Efficiently update and manage paper information.
  • Maintain a record of changes made to paper information.
  • Prevent loss of original information when editing.

Benefits:

  • Improved organization and tracking of paper information.
  • Enhanced efficiency in editing and updating information.
  • Reduced risk of data loss during editing processes.

Commercial Applications: The technology could be valuable for companies that deal with large amounts of paper information, such as publishing houses, legal firms, and research institutions.

Questions about the Technology: 1. How does this technology improve upon traditional methods of editing paper information? 2. What are the potential security implications of overwriting existing paper information?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay informed about advancements in information processing technology and document management systems to enhance the capabilities of this innovation.


Original Abstract Submitted

An information processing apparatus accepts an editing operation to change registered first paper information. Paper information based on the accepted editing operation is registered as second paper information, which is different from the first paper information, in a case where a type of the first paper information is base paper, and the registered first paper information is overwritten with the paper information based on the editing operation in a case where the type of the first paper information is not the base paper.
