Abstract

The present invention relates to a terminal comprising a display, a central processing device, and an input device. When a phase operating command for distinguishing phases is inputted on the display, the input device outputs the phase operating command, and the central processing device recognizes the phase of the phase operating command and outputs information which matches the recognized phase to the display. Thus, information which is associated with information displayed on the current screen can be effectively displayed on a display screen even without executing several screen changing commands.

Claims

1. A phased information provision system and method, wherein:

a terminal provided with a display, a Central Processing Unit (CPU), and an input device is configured such that, when a phase manipulation command for distinguishing individual phases is input on the display, the input device outputs the phase manipulation command, and the CPU recognizes a phase of the phase manipulation command and outputs information suitable for the phase to the display.

2. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the CPU is configured to, when a point on the display is selected, and the point is moved and then information about a movement distance of the point is output, determine the movement distance to be a phase.

3. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the CPU is configured to, when a point on the display is selected, and the point is rotated and then information about a rotational direction of the point is output, determine an angle of a rotational motion of the point to be a phase.

4. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the phase includes a positive (+) movement phase.

5. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the phase includes a negative (−

) movement phase.

6. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the phase is designated, as two points are selected via the input device and a distance between the two points is shortened or lengthened.

8. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the CPU is configured to, when a point on the display is selected, and the point is moved and then information about a movement distance of the point is output, determine the movement distance to be a phase.

9. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the CPU is configured to, when a point on the display is selected, and the point is rotated and then information about a rotational direction of the point is output, determine an angle of a rotational motion of the point to be a phase.

10. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the phase includes a positive (+) movement phase.

11. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the phase includes a negative (−

) movement phase.

12. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein the phase is designated, as two points are selected via the input device and a distance between the two points is shortened or lengthened.

13. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein when a current phase is phase N and is moved in a positive (+) direction by J phases, a finally selected phase is phase N+J.

14. The phased information provision system and method of claim 1, wherein when a current phase is phase N and is moved in a negative (−

) direction by I phases, a finally selected phase is phase N−

I.

7. A phased information provision system and method, wherein:

a terminal provided with a display, a Central Processing Unit (CPU), and an input device is connected to a server provided with a database (DB) and a control unit,

when a phase manipulation command for distinguishing individual phases is input on the display, the input device outputs the phase manipulation command, and the CPU recognizes a phase of the phase manipulation command,

the CPU transmits information about determination of the phase of the phase manipulation command to the server, or transmits a phased manipulation command signal from the input device to the server, and

the server outputs information about the phase from the DB and transmits the information to the terminal.
