A device cooperation support system includes a user apparatus configured to receive an operation result output from an external device, to output a control signal for operating the external device, and to perform device cooperation control based on a device cooperation rule, and a device cooperation support apparatus configured to support device cooperation between the user apparatus and the external device. The device cooperation support apparatus receives registration of an external device from a device registrant, creates the device cooperation rule by combining condition clause information with execution clause information created on the basis of device operation definition information of the registered external device, and delivers the device cooperation rule to the selected user apparatus based on association between the selected user apparatus and the device cooperation rule.

Device cooperation support system

A data collection apparatus includes a data collection section configured to receive sequential time-series output data pieces for each of data sources, a data shaping section configured to perform data shaping processing on the sequential time-series output data pieces based on a predetermined data shaping rule set for each of the data sources such that the resulting data pieces are reduced in number or in data amount as compared with the output data pieces output from the data source, a data transmission section configured to transmit the output data pieces to the monitor control apparatus, and a data shaping rule control section configured to receive the data shaping rule set for each of the data sources from the monitor control apparatus and to set the received data shaping rule in the data shaping section.

Monitor control system and data collection apparatus

A monitoring control system sequentially processing data collected from various data sources to find a possible phenomenon, producing an appropriate action for the found change or phenomenon, and outputting control information for causing a system to perform a notification or predetermined control. The monitoring control system includes a phenomenon detecting section configured to detect a phenomenon leading to a particular result from contiguous data received from data sources serving as data transmission element based on detecting rule definition data previously specifying a change attribute of contiguous time-series data pieces for each phenomenon leading to a particular result, and a determination section configured to extract action information associated with the particular result detected by the phenomenon detecting section to produce an event for a predetermined system based on action definition data previously specifying action information for each particular result.
