Abstract

An information processing method, to verify condition data specifying conditions as to multiple attribute values of an object and attribute values obtained from said object, includes verifying processing to obtain a new attribute value after change for an attribute value having the smallest change frequency of attribute values not satisfying the conditions specified by said condition data, and verify whether or not the new attribute value after said change satisfy the conditions of said condition data; and further executing said verifying processing as to other attribute values not satisfying the conditions specified by said condition data in the case that said new attribute value after change for the attribute value having the smallest change frequency satisfies said conditions.

Claims

1. A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium to store a program that verifies condition data specifying conditions as to multiple attribute values of an object and the attribute values obtained from said object, said program causing a computer to execute a procedure comprising:

verifying processing to obtain a new attribute value after change for an attribute value having a smallest change frequency of attribute values not satisfying the conditions specified by said condition data, and to verify whether or not the new attribute value after said change satisfies the conditions of said condition data; and

processing to further execute said verifying processing as to other attribute values not satisfying the conditions specified by said condition data in the case that said new attribute value after change for the attribute value having the smallest change frequency satisfies said conditions.

2. The recording medium according to claim 1, said procedure further comprising:

storing change frequency information of attribute values relating to multiple objects sharing at least one attribute value in said computer, in a change frequency information storage unit that stores change frequency information for each attribute value of said objects.

3. The recording medium according to claim 1, said procedure further comprising processing of:

in the case of new attribute values after change being obtained in said verifying processing,

and in the case of a first attribute value changing between multiple attribute values, resulting in the other attribute values becoming value unknown due to being dependent on said obtained new attribute values;

rewriting the other attribute values specified in a dependency relation storage unit to unknown.

4. The recording medium according to claim 1, said procedure further comprising processing of:

calculating a change frequency per unit of time from an aggregate of past number of changes of the attribute values.

5. The recording medium according to claim 1, said procedure further comprising processing of:

calculating change frequency using different weighting as to change frequencies between a change history occurring in a first segment including a newest change history and a change history occurring before said one segment, of past change histories of the attribute values.

6. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a condition data storage unit to store condition data as to multiple attribute values of an object;

a change frequency information storage unit to store change frequency information of each attribute value of said object; and

a verifying processing unit to obtain a new attribute value after change for an attribute value having a smallest change frequency of attribute values not satisfying conditions specified by said condition data, execute verifying processing of whether or not the new attribute value after said change satisfies the conditions of said condition data, and execute said verifying processing as to other attribute values not satisfying the conditions specified by said condition data in the case that said new attribute value after change for the attribute value having the smallest change frequency satisfies said conditions.

7. An information processing method to verify condition data specifying conditions as to multiple attribute values of an object and attribute values obtained from said object, said information processing method comprising:

verifying processing, by a processor, to obtain a new attribute value after change for an attribute value having a smallest change frequency of attribute values not satisfying the conditions specified by said condition data, and to verify whether or not the new attribute value after said change satisfies the conditions of said condition data; and

further executing said verifying processing as to other attribute values not satisfying the conditions specified by said condition data in the case that said new attribute value after change for the attribute value having the smallest change frequency satisfies said conditions.
