Abstract

A method of constructing a system by collecting information and know-how is presented. The method includes the steps of storing information including development situations, know-how, and knowledge in a solution bank by a unit of a solution pattern, and obtaining contents corresponding to a desired system so as to construct the desired system by accessing the solution bank from a computer in which the desired system is to be constructed.

Claims

1. A method of constructing a system by collecting information and know-how, comprising the steps of:

storing information including development situations, know-how, and knowledge in a solution bank by a unit of a solution pattern; and

obtaining contents corresponding to a desired system so as to construct the desired system by accessing the solution bank from a computer in which the desired system is to be constructed.

2. The method as claimed in

claim 1

, wherein the solution bank stores information on an application environment including proposals, designs, software, know-how, and a programming environment.

3. The method as claimed in

claim 1

, wherein said step of obtaining contents comprises the steps of:

accessing the solution bank based on information including a business model, transaction forms, and a project size; and

selecting items of desired information from items presented by the solution bank.

4. The method as claimed in

claim 1

, wherein said step of obtaining contents comprises the steps of:

accessing the solution bank based on information including a solution pattern, a machine being used, a product being used; and

supplying an application environment of a default system from the solution bank to the computer in which the desired system is to be constructed.

5. The method as claimed in

claim 4

, wherein said step of obtaining contents further comprises the step of supplying design documents of the default system from the solution bank to the computer in which the desired system is to be constructed.

6. The method as claimed in

claim 1

, wherein the solution bank provides a solution pattern categorized according to a business-transaction model which is requested by the computer in which the desired system is to be constructed.

7. The method as claimed in

claim 1

, wherein the solution bank provides only a partial function of a solution pattern for the computer in which the desired system is to be constructed.

8. The method as claimed in

claim 1

, further comprising the steps of:

checking components incorporated into a default system which is used as a basis for the desired system; and

utilizing the checked components for a computer in which another system is to be constructed.

9. A system for constructing a system by collecting information and know-how, comprising:

a solution bank including;

content storing means for storing information including development situations, know-how, and knowledge by a unit of a solution pattern; and

solution-pattern providing means for providing the information stored in said content storing means as a solution pattern or a portion of the solution pattern in response to a request; and

a system-construction device which obtains contents corresponding to a desired system from said solution bank so as to construct the desired system by accessing said solution bank.

10. The system as claimed in

claim 9

, wherein said solution bank stores information on an application environment including proposals, designs, software, know-how, and a programming environment.

11. The system as claimed in

claim 9

, wherein said system-construction device comprises:

accessing means for accessing said solution bank based on information including a business model, transaction forms, and a project size; and

selecting means for selecting items of desired information from items presented by said solution bank.

12. The system as claimed in

claim 11

, wherein said access means accesses said solution bank based on information including a solution pattern, a machine being used, a product being used, and said solution-pattern providing means supplies an application environment of a default system from said solution bank to said system-construction device.

13. The system as claimed in

claim 12

, wherein said solution-pattern providing means further supplies design documents of the default system from said solution bank to said system-construction device.

14. The system as claimed in

claim 9

, wherein said solution-pattern providing means provides a solution pattern categorized according to a business-transaction model which is requested by said system-construction device.

15. The system as claimed in

claim 9

, wherein said solution-pattern providing means provides only a partial function of a solution pattern for the system-construction device.

16. A machine-readable memory medium having a program embodied therein for constructing a system by collecting information and know-how, said program comprising:

a solution-pattern providing program-code device configured to cause a solution bank, which stores information including development situations, know-how, and knowledge by a unit of a solution pattern, to provide the information as a solution pattern or a portion of the solution pattern in response to a request; and

a system-construction program-code device configured to cause a system-construction device to obtain contents corresponding to a desired system from the solution bank so as to construct the desired system by accessing the solution bank.
