Abstract
Disclosed is a reservation system terminal connected to a host computer for controlling the overall reservation status. The terminal can inquire of the host computer the present reservation status, request the reservation acquisition, and prepare, refer to, or change the reservation record to be received by the host computer. The terminal is provided with a terminal computer, a display unit (17) and a pointing device. The terminal computer can execute in parallel mode a plurality of tasks such as a reservation process for a reservation acquisition task, a reservation edition process for reservation record preparation and a change task, a reservation record reference process for preparing a reservation record reference task, etc. In each of these processes (reservation, reservation, edition, reservation record reference), images are formed, respectively, and displayed in multiwindow fashion. Each image includes a plurality of arranged visible parts operable by the pointing device. Therefore, various tasks related to reservation can be executed simply when the operator points to positions on these visible parts with the pointing device. Various data that is usable in common is automatically transferred among the above-mentioned processes and coordinated through inter-process communications. The arrangement of the images can be freely changed, so that any required image can be displayed in the front of a multidisplay image.
