Abstract

An electronic device, a method of managing a schedule, and a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium are provided. The electronic device includes a processor configured to acquire schedule-related information, acquire parsed data by parsing the acquired schedule-related information, and transmit the parsed data to a plurality of applications, and an output unit configured to output a result of processing the parsed data through the plurality of applications. The method includes acquiring schedule-related information; acquiring parsed data by parsing the acquired schedule-related information; transmitting the parsed data to a plurality of applications; and processing the parsed data through the plurality of applications.

Claims

1. An electronic device, comprising:

a processor configured to acquire schedule-related information, acquire parsed data by parsing the acquired schedule-related information, and transmit the parsed data to a plurality of applications; and

an output unit configured to output a result of processing the parsed data through the plurality of applications.

2. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to determine a property of the parsed data, and determine the plurality of applications based on the determined property.

3. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to acquire a schedule information change caused by a first application, and apply the schedule information change to each of the plurality of applications, wherein the output unit outputs a result of applying the schedule information change.

4. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to control a display of a guide including the acquired parsed data, and transmit the parsed data to the plurality of applications based on a schedule information generation command acquired through the guide.

5. The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to determine whether schedule information corresponding to the parsed data overlaps with other pre-stored schedule information, and if the schedule information corresponding to the parsed data overlaps with the other pre-stored schedule information, control a display of a guide recommending a schedule different from the pre-stored schedule information.

6. A method of managing a schedule, the method comprising:

acquiring schedule-related information;

acquiring parsed data by parsing the acquired schedule-related information;

transmitting the parsed data to a plurality of applications; and

processing the parsed data through the plurality of applications.

7. The method of claim 6, further comprising:

determining a property of the parsed data; and

determining the plurality of applications based on the determined property.

8. The method of claim 6, further comprising:

acquiring a schedule information change caused by a first application; and

applying the schedule information change to each of the plurality of applications.

9. The method of claim 6, further comprising:

displaying a guide including the acquired parsed data; and

transmitting the parsed data to the plurality of applications based on a schedule information generation command acquired through the guide.

10. The method of claim 6, further comprising:

determining whether schedule information corresponding to the parsed data overlaps with other pre-stored schedule information; and

if the schedule information corresponding to the parsed data overlaps with other pre-stored schedule information, displaying a guide recommending a schedule that is different from the other pre-stored schedule information.

11. An electronic device, comprising:

a processor configured to acquire parsed data by parsing schedule-related information, acquire at least one of user information about the electronic device and external information, and acquire schedule information based on the parsed data and the at least one of the user information about the electronic device and the external information; and

an output unit configured to output the schedule information.

12. The electronic device of claim 11, wherein the processor is further configured to determine a property of the schedule information, and determine a corresponding application based on the determined property.

13. The electronic device of claim 11, wherein the processor is further configured to acquire the schedule information modified from schedule information corresponding to the parsed data based on the at least one of the user information and the external information.

14. The electronic device of claim 11, wherein the parsed data includes at least one of a scheduled time, a scheduled place, and a schedule name, wherein the user information includes information related to a use pattern of the electronic device, and wherein the external information includes at least one of traffic state information related to at least one of the scheduled time and the scheduled place, and expected time information.

15. The electronic device of claim 11, wherein the processor is further configured to determine whether the schedule information is viable based on the at least one of the user information and the external information and, if the schedule information is not viable, control the output unit to output a corresponding action.

16. The electronic device of claim 11, wherein the output unit is further configured to display a guide including the schedule information, and the processor is further configured to generate the schedule information based on a schedule information generation command acquired through the guide.

17. The electronic device of claim 16, wherein the processor is further configured to determine whether the schedule information overlaps with other pre-stored schedule information, and if the schedule information overlaps with other pre-stored schedule information, control the output unit to display a guide recommending a schedule different from the other pre-stored schedule information.

18. A method of managing a schedule in an electronic device, the method comprising:

acquiring schedule-related information;

acquiring parsed data by parsing the schedule-related information;

acquiring at least one of user information about the electronic device and external information;

acquiring schedule information based on the parsed data and the at least one of the user information and the external information; and

outputting the schedule information.

19. The method of claim 18, wherein the acquisition of schedule information comprises acquiring the schedule information modified from schedule information corresponding to the parsed data based on the at least one of the user information and the external information.

20. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium recording a program for performing a method of managing a schedule in an electronic device, the method comprising:

acquiring schedule-related information;

acquiring parsed data by parsing the schedule-related information;

acquiring at least one of user information about the electronic device and external information;

acquiring schedule information based on the parsed data and the at least one of the user information and the external information; and

outputting the schedule information.
