Abstract
A language analyzer converts an instruction sentence entered by an operator is converted into a speech frame. Based on this speech frame, a central control unit creates an itinerary, and visiting spots, a route between the visiting spots and a visiting day representing the created itinerary are stored respectively as a node, a link and a schedule in a state variable holding device. In addition, a node, a link and a schedule entered/searched in the past are stored in the state variable holding device. A currently targeted node is specified, and then the central control unit recreates an itinerary by focusing only on a node, a link and a schedule related to the currently targeted node, stored in the state variable holding device.
