The advantages and features of the present disclosure, and the methods for achieving them, will become apparent with reference to the embodiments described in detail below together with the accompanying drawings. However, the technical idea of the present disclosure is not limited to the embodiments described below, but may be implemented in various different forms, and the following embodiments are provided only to complete the technical idea of the present disclosure and to fully inform those skilled in the art of the scope of the present disclosure, and the technical idea of the present disclosure is defined only by the scope of the claims. In describing the present disclosure, if it is determined that a specific description of a related known configuration or function may obscure the gist of the present disclosure, the detailed description thereof will be omitted. Hereinafter, several embodiments of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings.

Technical ideas that can be understood from each embodiment of the present disclosure described below can be obviously applied to other embodiments even if not stated separately.

1. Integrated business platform

First, an integrated business platform providing system according to one embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 1. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the integrated business platform providing system (10) according to the present embodiment may include one or more service servers (not illustrated) that provide a business portal to a user terminal.

The above service server transmits work portal screen data for rendering the work portal screen to the user terminal (30), and the user terminal (30) will display the work portal screen using the work portal screen data. For example, the user terminal (30) may be a terminal device used by an individual user or a public kiosk. The work portal may be understood as a service that provides various functions for employees to perform their work in an integrated manner.

The integrated business platform provision system (10) according to the present embodiment may include a business software management system (200), a virtual office management system (300), a physical office management system (400), and an information linkage system (100).

The physical office management system (400) includes software and hardware modules for controlling various facilities of the physical office, and software and hardware modules for storing and managing data generated from various facilities of the physical office.

The virtual office management system (300) provides a virtual office screen to a user terminal (30). A user of the user terminal (30) inputs an operation command of his/her avatar into the user terminal (30), and the user terminal (30) transmits the operation command to the virtual office management system (300). The virtual office management system (300) generates a virtual office screen reflecting the operation command and transmits rendering data of the generated virtual office screen to the user terminal (30).

The business software management system (200) performs the role of an integrated server for a plurality of business software installed in a user terminal (30) and supports data linking between the plurality of business software installed in the user terminal (30). For example, the plurality of business software may include applications such as a document creation tool, a presentation material creation tool, a spreadsheet, a mail client, and a schedule management tool. In addition, data linking between the plurality of business software means that data created in the first business software can be utilized in the second business software, such as, for example, the schedule information of the schedule management tool can be retrieved from the mail client.

The information linkage system (100) can collect a designated portion of information generated from each of the business software management system (200), the virtual office management system (300), and the physical office management system (400). Data paths (101, 102, 103) for information collection are illustrated in FIG. 1. Through this, the information linkage system (100) can determine whether action linkage to a heterogeneous system is necessary. Action linkage to a heterogeneous system refers to information generated in a first system affecting a second system. The integrated business platform provision system (10) can automatically provide support measures from various systems when employees are in a specific situation through such action linkage to heterogeneous systems.

The information linkage system (100) can manage a rule set to determine whether the collected information indicates a situation requiring action linkage to a heterogeneous system. Each rule included in the rule set can be a combination of event information and action information. The event information is information that defines an event corresponding to each rule, and can define which information generated from which system satisfies which condition. The event information can include multiple event definitions. That is, each rule can correspond to multiple events.

In addition, the action information may include response system information indicating which system among the business software management system (200), the virtual office management system (300) and the physical office management system (400) the action is performed in, and action specification information indicating which action is performed. Similar to the event information, the action specification information may also include multiple event definitions.

The information linkage system (100) can analyze the collected information by referring to the rule set, find one or more rules that satisfy event information among the rules of the rule set as a result of the analysis, check the action information of the found rule, and transmit data instructing the execution of an action according to the action specification information to the action execution system according to the response system information of the confirmed action information.

Meanwhile, the information linkage system (100) can periodically or irregularly collect information from the business software management system (200), the virtual office management system (300), and the physical office management system (400) and normalize it into a predefined format and store it in the business activity data archive (20). The business activity data archive (20) can be composed of various storage devices suitable for large-scale data storage, such as RAID STORAGE, and, unlike as shown in FIG. 1, it can of course be connected to the outside of the integrated business platform provision system (10).

In some embodiments, the business software management system (200), the virtual office management system (300), and the physical office management system (400) may perform information transmission and reception of action linkage to heterogeneous systems directly without going through the information linkage system (100) on an aperiodical basis. In this case, the business software management system (200), the virtual office management system (300), and the physical office management system (400) may each store the above-described rule set. The information linkage system (100) may distribute the rule set to the business software management system (200), the virtual office management system (300), and the physical office management system (400) on an aperiodical basis.

The target rule for performing information transmission and reception of action linkage between the virtual office management system (300) and the physical office management system (400) without going through the information linkage system (100) is an emergency rule requiring short latency. That is, the rule set may include an identification field indicating an emergency rule.

In some embodiments, emergency rules may be assigned a maximum ratio relative to the total number of rules, or at least one of the event information and action information requirements for becoming an emergency rule may be restricted. This may prevent emergency rules from being overused and over-designated.

Due to the load related to rule processing that may be imposed on the information linkage system (100), latency may occur between the occurrence of an event and the execution of a response action. By operating the emergency rules and general rules that require direct transmission and reception of action linkage information differently, it will be possible to satisfy a short latency for rules that require immediate execution of a response action. FIG. 1 illustrates direct connection data paths (104, 105, 106) between the virtual office management system (300) and the physical office management system (400) in the information linkage system (100). That is, by transmitting and receiving data related to the emergency rule through the direct connection data paths (104, 105, 106), it will be possible to ensure that the latency between the occurrence of an event and the execution of a response action is lowered below a reference value.

In some embodiments, the virtual office management system (300) and the physical office management system (400) may each include a general action execution module (not shown) that processes an action execution instruction received from the information linkage system (100), and an emergency action execution module (not shown) that processes an action execution instruction received from a heterogeneous system through one of the direct connection data paths (104, 105, 106).

As described above, the emergency rule may have a maximum ratio specified for the entire rules, or the requirements for becoming the emergency rule may be limited, so that the emergency action performing module will have a lesser workload than the general action performing module, and thus, the action can be performed quickly.

Below, an exemplary user service screen provided by the physical office management system is described with reference to Fig. 2.

The smart office portal (11) provides services for the overall work and life of employees in a physical office. The physical office may be, for example, the office building of the company where the employees work, and if the company has multiple office buildings, the user terminals of the employees may display different smart office portals (11) depending on the office building where they work.

The physical office management system (400) can operate by transmitting and receiving data with various devices installed in a physical office, such as CCTVs that collect worker work patterns and environmental data, IoT sensors such as temperature sensors, humidity sensors, air quality sensors, sound sensors, vibration sensors, and illuminance sensors, access control solutions based on facial recognition and card recognition, electronic nameplates that reserve and display seat and conference room reservations and use, restaurant/cafe POS, location recognition and occupancy detection sensors and solutions, wired/wireless networks, electronic whiteboards and video conferencing solutions, disaster and emergency situation detection solutions such as fire/earthquake, service robots and control solutions, parking control/payment and electric vehicle charging solutions, power control solutions, lighting control solutions, air conditioning control solutions, elevator control solutions, energy control, and building integrated management solutions.

The physical office management system (400) may be able to transmit and receive data with a building management system (not shown) that manages sensors that measure the building environment and control devices that control each facility of the building. That is, the smart office portal (11) may collect data from various lower devices and solutions and control or service each device and solution by linking some or all of the functions in order to provide an integrated service in a physical office.

In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the smart office portal (11) can provide a reservation service (11a) for various facilities of the physical office for the convenience of employees. For example, the smart office portal (11) can provide an autonomous seat reservation service including an AI-based seat recommendation function, a conference room reservation service including an AI-based conference room recommendation function, and a visitor reservation service linked with an access control solution. In addition, the smart office portal (11) can also provide an ordering service (11b) linked with a POS (Point Of Service) device of an in-house restaurant or in-house cafe.

In addition, in some embodiments, the smart office portal (11) may further include a security/control-related area (11c) that is selectively displayed in a situation where a specific activity needs to be performed. The security/control-related area (11c) may display a button or link for performing an activity that needs to be performed company-wide or by a specific department. In addition, information with a high level of urgency or attention required related to security/control may be directly displayed in the security/control-related area (11c). Since the smart office portal (11) will be frequently displayed on employee terminals, the information with a high level of urgency or attention required may be effectively exposed to employees.

For example, the security/control related area (11c) may serve as an interface for guiding the evacuation route of employees in the event of a disaster, conducting disaster response training, or may include a button that links to a disaster response page. In addition, for example, the security/control related area (11c) may include a button that links to a page of an access control system. In addition, for example, the security/control related area (11c) may directly display important information pushed by the access control system.

Exemplary management data (410) of a physical office management system (400) that can be understood by referring to the smart office portal (11) is illustrated in FIG. 3. It goes without saying that a plurality of data can be managed by the physical office management system (400) in addition to the data illustrated in FIG. 3.

Hereinafter, an exemplary business software portal (12) that can be serviced by the business software management system (200) is described with reference to Fig. 4. The business software portal (12) includes a selection means for various functions used in the process of performing a task or in the process of inputting the results after performing the task. It goes without saying that the selection means can be in the form of a button.

The business software portal (12) can be implemented in the form of a web document, and when the above selection means is selected, the business software function of the selected function can be executed on a web browser, or the client application of the selected function can be executed as a client application pre-installed on the user terminal.

For example, a business software portal (12) may include a project collaboration tool (12a), a chat/communication tool such as a business instant messenger (12b), a collaboration seat recommendation tool (12c), a schedule management tool (12e), a video conference tool (12f), a co-working robot tool such as an RPA (Robotics Process Automation) and a virtual assistant (12g), a cloud storage service (12h), an electronic approval and attendance management service (12i), a chatbot service (12j), and various forms of content authoring tools such as documents, spreadsheets, or presentation materials (12k).

Exemplary management data (210) of a business software management system (200) that can be understood by referring to the business software portal (12) is illustrated in FIG. 5. It goes without saying that a plurality of data can be managed by the software management system (200) in addition to the data illustrated in FIG. 5.

Hereinafter, an exemplary virtual office screen (310-1) that can be displayed on a user terminal (30) by being serviced by a virtual office management system (300) is described with reference to FIG. 6.

'Virtual office' can be understood as an online service that allows employees to go to work by accessing a virtual space created by software instead of going to the actual physical office. The virtual office can be implemented in the form of a three-dimensional virtual space so that employees can feel a sense of belonging through a high level of realism. By incorporating virtual reality technology, the realism of the virtual office can be further enhanced.

A 'virtual office' is not necessarily the opposite of a physical office. That is, employees who go to the physical office can also access the 'virtual office', and by inducing a situation where they exist simultaneously in the physical office and the virtual office, it is possible to provide various working experiences for employees that were not previously available. Various examples for providing such diverse working experiences will be described later.

In some embodiments, access to the 'virtual office' may only be possible from a pre-designated geographic location. For example, if commuting to a virtual office is required as a requirement for working from home, employees may register the geographic location from which they will access the virtual office in advance, and through such pre-registration of geographic locations, the company's HR (Human Resource) department will be able to operate the remote work system, such as working from home, more efficiently.

In some embodiments, each employee who has accessed the virtual office may perform work activities within the virtual office by manipulating his or her avatar. For example, he or she may hold work discussions with other employees who have accessed the virtual office, or move his or her avatar to a specific space within the virtual office and perform work activities that can only be performed in that specific space.

An exemplary virtual office screen (310-1) displayed on a user terminal may be displayed by a virtual office navigation application installed on the user terminal, or may be displayed by accessing the virtual office management system (300) using a general-purpose application such as a web browser.

The virtual office screen (310-1) may include a plurality of graphic elements. The plurality of graphic elements may include digital office elements that place buildings, furniture, nature, and landscape elements in a virtual office space in a form similar to a physical office space, meta human elements such as employee avatars, chatbots, and NPCs (non-player characters) that are active in the virtual office and communicate with employee avatars.

An exemplary virtual office screen (310-1) may be displayed with a toolbar (320) including buttons for rapid movement within the virtual office. The toolbar (320) of FIG. 6 may include a button (321) for moving to an office area where seating, conference rooms, and spaces for simple discussions are arranged, a button (322) for moving to a square area for inducing serendipity collaboration by allowing company members to easily have unintentional encounters and conversations, a button (323) for moving to a cafe area where smart ordering is possible for the in-house cafe of the physical office as a virtual space with an atmosphere suitable for conversations between employees, a button (324) for moving to a lecture room area where in-house seminars, legal training, etc. are held, and a button (325) for moving to a reception lobby where avatars of outsiders can also be located.

In some embodiments, actions of employee avatars in the virtual office may result in automated changes to presence information. For example, in a situation where the avatars of the first employee and the second employee are having a conversation in the virtual office, the presence information of the virtual offices of the first and second employees will automatically change to 'in conversation'.

In some embodiments, the first presence information of the virtual office and the second presence information of the business software can be managed separately. By separating the presence information of the virtual office and the presence information of the business software, the needs of employees who want to express their activities in the virtual office and their activities operating the business software separately can be satisfied. Employees who tend to have multiple characters will want to separate the presence information of the virtual office and the presence information of the business software.

In some other embodiments, the presence information of the virtual office and the presence information of the business software may be synchronized and managed in an integrated manner. In this case, actions performed by employees in the virtual office will change not only the presence information of the virtual office but also the presence information of the business software, and conversely, the operation of the business software by employees will change not only the presence information of the business software but also the presence information of the virtual office.

Whether to manage the primary presence information of the virtual office and the secondary presence information of the business software separately or to synchronize them identically can be a setting for each employee, a setting for each department, or a setting according to the overall policy of the company.

Exemplary management data (330) of a virtual office management system (300) that can be understood with reference to the exemplary virtual office screen (310-1) described with reference to FIG. 6 is illustrated in FIG. 7. It goes without saying that a plurality of data can be managed by the virtual office management system (300) in addition to the data illustrated in FIG. 7.

Hereinafter, the configuration and operation of an information linkage system according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 8. The information linkage system (100) according to the present embodiment has been described as a component included in the integrated business platform provision system (10) described with reference to FIG. 1. The information linkage system (100) according to the present embodiment may be implemented in the form of a computing system described below with reference to FIG. 43, and of course, may be implemented using hardware resources virtualized in the form of one or more virtual machines or containers based on cloud technology.

The information linkage system (100) may include a physical office response module (110), a virtual office response module (120), and a business software response module (130). As described above, the information linkage system (100) may collect a designated portion of information generated from each of the business software management system, the virtual office management system, and the physical office management system. In addition, the information linkage system (100) may determine whether action linkage to a heterogeneous system is required. The information linkage system (100) may manage a rule set to determine whether the collected information indicates a situation in which action linkage to a heterogeneous system is required.

That is, the information linkage system (100) analyzes information generated from each unit system that constitutes an integrated business platform, such as a business software management system, a virtual office management system, and a physical office management system, and uses the analysis results to determine whether an action needs to be performed in a unit system other than the unit system where the information was generated, thereby performing the role of a control tower.

In other words, the information linkage system (100) exclusively determines whether to link actions to other unit systems. Accordingly, each unit system constituting the integrated business platform only transmits occurrence information to the information linkage system (100) and does not perform separate operations related to linking actions to other unit systems. As a result, the computational resources allocated to the operation of the integrated business platform can be efficiently utilized, and when adding a function related to linking actions to other unit systems or changing an existing function, only an update of the information linkage system (100) is required, which is efficient in terms of the function update process.

In some embodiments, the business software management system, the virtual office management system, and the physical office management system may each transmit only a pre-designated portion of the generated information to the information linkage system (100). This is to reduce data transmission and reception traffic between the systems and to reduce the information analysis load of the information linkage system (100).

However, as a function related to action linkage to another unit system is added, information that was not previously received may be required. For example, due to a new action linkage function update, the information linkage system (100) may need to analyze entry and exit information that was not previously received from the physical office management system. In this case, the information linkage system (100) may transmit an information provision request including the information ID of the entry and exit information to the physical office management system.

The above information ID may be an ID of information managed in master data that manages a list of all information managed in terms of an integrated business platform.

The physical office response module (110) may include a physical office facility data monitoring unit (111) that analyzes information generated in a physical office management system with reference to the above-described rule set. If the analysis result of the physical office facility data monitoring unit (111) indicates that an action needs to be performed in a virtual office management system, the virtual office control unit (112) may transmit the above-described action specification information related to the above-described rule set to the virtual office management system. In addition, if the analysis result of the physical office facility data monitoring unit (111) indicates that an action needs to be performed in a business software management system, the business software control unit (113) may transmit the above-described action specification information to the business software management system.

The virtual office response module (120) may include a virtual office facility data monitoring unit (121) that analyzes information generated in a virtual office management system by referring to the above-described rule set. If the analysis result of the virtual office facility data monitoring unit (121) indicates that an action needs to be performed in a physical office management system, the physical office control unit (122) may transmit the action specification information to the physical office management system. In addition, if the analysis result of the virtual office facility data monitoring unit (121) indicates that an action needs to be performed in a business software management system, the business software control unit (123) may transmit the action specification information to the business software management system.

The business software response module (130) may include a business software log monitoring unit (131) that analyzes information generated in the business software management system by referring to the above-described rule set. If the analysis result of the business software log monitoring unit (131) indicates that an action needs to be performed in the physical office management system, the physical office control unit (132) may transmit the action specification information to the physical office management system. In addition, if the analysis result of the business software log monitoring unit (131) indicates that an action needs to be performed in the virtual office management system, the virtual office control unit (133) may transmit the action specification information to the virtual office management system.

In some embodiments, the information linkage system (100) may further include a resource saving module (not shown) that automatically deactivates at least some of the physical office response module (110), the virtual office response module (120), and the business software response module (130). The operation performed by the information linkage system (100) does not affect the performance of the functions of each unit system, i.e., the business software management system, the virtual office management system, and the physical office management system. Accordingly, even if the information linkage system (100) does not perform the operation, there is no problem in the operation of each unit system. Considering this point, the resource saving module may automatically deactivate at least some of the physical office response module (110), the virtual office response module (120), and the business software response module (130) by using load information or context information of the entire integrated business platform.

The above resource saving module can terminate a service (e.g., a Microsoft ^TM Windows service) that is registered with the operating system and constantly runs in the background for the module to be disabled, or terminate all processes of the module to be disabled. In addition, the resource saving module can reclaim virtual computing resources exclusively allocated for the module to be disabled. For example, the resource saving module can reclaim a virtual machine allocated for the module to be disabled and allocate it to another module.

The above situation information may include time zone information. For example, the resource saving module may automatically deactivate the physical office response module (110) during a pre-designated time zone or on weekends.

For example, the above resource saving module can automatically deactivate the physical office response module (110) during the time period from 9:00 PM to 7:00 AM the following day on weekdays and on weekends. It can be understood that this reflects the fact that the utilization of the physical office is significantly reduced during the above-mentioned time period.

In addition, for example, the resource saving module can automatically deactivate the business software response module (130) during a designated meal time. This can be understood as reflecting the fact that the use of business software is greatly reduced during meal time.

In addition, the resource saving module can automatically deactivate at least some of the physical office response module (110), the virtual office response module (120), and the business software response module (130) when the load information of the entire integrated business platform exceeds a reference value.

For example, assume that 1,000 virtual machines are allocated to the entire integrated business platform, and 50 of them are allocated to the information linkage system (100). In other words, 950 virtual machines will be allocated to the physical office management system, the virtual office management system, and the business software management system. In addition, assume that the integrated business platform operates based on a cloud system that provides an auto scaling function. At this time, as the computational load on the physical office management system, the virtual office management system, and the business software management system increases, and as the scale-out according to the auto scaling function is repeated, if the number of available virtual machines falls below the standard number, it will be necessary to initialize the virtual machines allocated to the information linkage system (100), secure available virtual machines, and utilize the secured available virtual machines for scale-out of the unit system that lacks available virtual machines among the physical office management system, the virtual office management system, and the business software management system. That is, the resource saving module automatically deactivates at least some of the physical office response module (110), the virtual office response module (120), and the business software response module (130) to secure available virtual machines, and as a result, it is possible to secure available virtual machines.

Of course, the above-described operation based on the virtual machine of the above-described resource saving module can be performed in a similar manner based on a container. That is, the above-described resource saving module can automatically deactivate at least some of the physical office response module (110), the virtual office response module (120), and the business software response module (130) to secure available containers, and as a result, can secure available containers.

By operating the resource saving module described above, it will be possible to flexibly adjust the operation of the information linkage system (100) within the budget range invested in the operation of the integrated business platform.

Hereinafter, a method for providing an integrated business platform according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 9. The method according to the present embodiment may be understood as an operation method of the information linkage system described above. The method according to the present embodiment may be performed by one or more computing devices. That is, the method according to the present embodiment may perform all operations by one computing device, or some operations may be performed by other computing devices. For example, some operations may be performed by a first server system, and other operations may be performed by a second server system.

In addition, as the server system is implemented on a cloud computing node, operations performed by one server system may also be divided and performed on multiple cloud computing nodes. Hereinafter, in describing the method according to the present embodiment, descriptions of the performers of some operations may be omitted, and in this case, the performers may be the information linkage system (100) described with reference to FIG. 8.

In step S100, the information linkage system monitors data generated from each unit system of the integrated business platform. As described above, data received from each unit system, i.e., the physical office management system, the virtual office management system, and the business software management system, can be monitored.

The information linkage system determines whether a predefined event has occurred based on the analysis results of data received from the physical office management system, i.e., data on the use of each facility of the physical office (S210). As described above, the information linkage system can determine whether the data received from the physical office management system satisfies event information according to at least one rule among each rule included in the rule set by referring to the rule set.

If the information linkage system determines that data received from the physical office management system indicates an event occurrence (S210), it verifies whether the occurred event is an event that applies its effect to another system. As described above, the action information of the rule includes response system information, and the response system information indicates in which system an action to be performed according to the rule should be performed, so the information linkage system can determine, by referring to the action information of the rule, whether the action of the event occurred in the physical office management system should be performed in a system other than the physical office management system, and can also determine what the response system is.

The information linkage system can perform data monitoring again without performing any special operation if the action of an event occurring in a physical office management system only needs to be performed in the physical office management system (S100). In addition, the information linkage system can perform data monitoring again without performing any special operation if the action of an event occurring in a virtual office management system only needs to be performed in the virtual office management system (S100). In addition, the information linkage system can perform data monitoring again without performing any special operation if the action of an event occurring in a business software management system only needs to be performed in the business software management system (S100).

FIG. 9 illustrates a point where, when an action of an event generated in a physical office management system must be performed in a system other than the physical office management system (S211) and the response system information according to the rule of the event points to a virtual office management system, a virtual office control unit intervenes (S320) and the virtual office control unit can output a control signal so that the virtual office management system performs the action. Note that FIG. 9 illustrates MWP (Meta Work Place) as an abbreviation representing a virtual office, SWP (Smart Work Place) as an abbreviation representing a physical office, and SWT (Smart Work Tool) as an abbreviation representing business software.

Similarly, when an action of an event that occurred in a physical office management system must be performed in a system other than the physical office management system (S211), and the response system information according to the rule of the event points to a business software management system, the business software control unit intervenes (S330), and the virtual office control unit can output a control signal so that the business software management system performs the action.

In addition, FIG. 9 illustrates that when data received from a virtual office management system indicates an event occurrence (S220), and the occurred event is an event that applies its effect to another system (S221), and the response system information according to the rule of the event indicates a physical office management system, a physical office control unit may intervene (S310) and the physical office control unit may output a control signal so that the physical office management system performs the action. Similarly, when the response system information according to the rule of the event indicates a business software management system, a business software control unit may intervene (S330) and the business software control unit may output a control signal so that the business software management system performs the action.

In addition, FIG. 9 illustrates that when data received from a business software management system indicates an event occurrence (S230), the occurred event is an event that applies its effect to another system (S231), and the response system information according to the rule of the event indicates a physical office management system, a physical office control unit may intervene (S310) and the physical office control unit may output a control signal so that the physical office management system performs the action. Similarly, when the response system information according to the rule of the event indicates a virtual office management system, a virtual office control unit may intervene (S320) and the virtual office control unit may output a control signal so that the virtual office management system performs the action.

2. Linking information generated from business software to physical or virtual offices

Hereinafter, examples will be described of when information generated from business software indicates the occurrence of an event that will be linked to an action in a physical office or virtual office. 'Information generated from business software' may include records of employees' operations of business software, evaluation information on employees' operations of business software, information on the progress of work on business software according to operations of business software, etc.

This table of contents will explain, with reference to several exemplary embodiments, that the operation of business software by an employee, or situational information or evaluation information derived from the operation of business software by the employee or the business software or an information linkage system may cause a change in the environment of the physical office for the employee, cause an automated suggestion for the employee to take a specific action in the physical office, cause a suggestion or automated recommendation for the employee to use some related facilities of the physical office, cause an automated change in the status of the employee in the virtual office, or cause a suggestion for the employee to perform a specific activity in the virtual office.

As described above, the technical ideas that can be understood from the embodiments described in "Table of Contents 1. Integrated Business Platform" can be obviously applied to each embodiment described in this table of contents even without separate mention. In addition, the methods according to the embodiments described in this table of contents can be understood as the operation method of the information linkage system described above. The above methods can be performed by one or more computing devices. That is, the above methods may perform all operations by one computing device, or some operations may be performed by other computing devices. Hereinafter, in describing the above methods, the description of the performers of some operations may be omitted, and in this case, the performers may be, for example, the information linkage system (100) described with reference to FIG. 8. In addition, since the server system is implemented on a cloud computing node, operations performed by one server system may also be divided and performed on multiple cloud computing nodes. In addition, the above methods may be divided and executed in one or more operations in multiple containers created on one virtual machine or one physical server.

Hereinafter, a method for providing an integrated business platform based on business software operation information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIGS. 10 to 15.

In step S1001, the information linkage system can obtain operation information on specific business software of a specific user. The 'specific user' is referred to as the 'first user', and the 'specific business software' is referred to as the 'first business software'. The first business software may be an authoring tool such as a document creation tool or a presentation material creation tool.

In step S1002, the information linkage system can analyze the manipulation information. At this time, the information linkage system can calculate the work concentration score of the first user by using the manipulation information. For example, the information linkage system can calculate the work concentration score by using at least one concentration evaluation factor among the number of manipulation inputs per unit time included in the manipulation information, the number of times focus is moved to an application other than the first work software per unit time, the continuous use time of the first application, and the speed at which the data size of the output per unit time increases. Some additional embodiments of step S1002 will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 11 to 13.

In step S1003, the information linkage system can use the analysis result in step S1002 to determine whether to activate the do-not-disturb mode for the first user. For example, if the determination result in step S1003 determines that the do-not-disturb mode for the first user is to be deactivated, the information linkage system can prevent the do-not-disturb mode from being unnecessarily maintained by changing the presence status of the first user in the virtual office to the 'available for conversation' status (S1004).

As a result of the decision in step S1003, if it is determined that the do not disturb mode for the first user is to be activated, the business software management system can automatically change the presence status of the business software for the first user to the 'do not disturb mode' (S1005). The business software management system can control one or more other business software other than the first business software to at least partially limit an alarm display function of the other business software, thereby supporting at least the business software not to 'disturb' the concentration status of the first user.

In addition, the information linkage system can prevent the first user's work concentration from being interrupted by other employees' requests for conversation or other disruptive behavior in the virtual office by changing the presence status of the first user in the virtual office to 'Do Not Disturb'.

In addition, in some embodiments, in order to continuously maintain the work concentration state of the first user, an operation (S1007) may be additionally performed in which the physical office management system adjusts at least one of the environment of the seat of the first user and the environment of the unit space corresponding to the seat. The environment of the seat may be changed through automatic change of an environmental element that affects only the first user, and for example, at least one of the illuminance of the seat, the color temperature of the lighting of the seat, the expansion of an automatic partition installed in the seat, and the operation of a personal noise canceling device equipped in the seat may be performed, thereby providing the seat where the first user is seated with an environment optimized for concentration.

In addition, in some embodiments, the information linking system may check the history information of the seating environment setting of the first user in the do-not-disturb mode, determine the environment setting of the seating seat using the checked history information, generate a control signal so that the environment of the seating seat is adjusted according to the determined environment setting, and transmit the generated control signal to a physical office management system. Alternatively, a physical office management system, not the information linking system, may check the history information of the seating environment setting of the first user in the do-not-disturb mode, determine the environment setting of the seating seat using the checked history information, and transmit a control signal to a seating seat controller so that the environment of the seating seat is adjusted according to the determined environment setting. According to the present embodiment, the first user's personal preferred concentration environment may be automatically provided to the seating seat.

At this time, the seating environment may be optimized differently depending on the type of the first business software. For example, the optimized seating environment when the first business software is a document creation tool, the optimized seating environment when the first business software is a presentation material creation tool, and the optimized seating environment when the first business software is a software development tool may be different from each other.

In addition, adjusting the environment of a unit space corresponding to a seated seat may mean adjusting the temperature, humidity, illuminance, etc. of the unit space belonging to the seated seat of the first user. The unit space refers to a space whose environment can be adjusted independently from other unit spaces, and for example, the unit space may be composed of cell units of a specific office space.

When the physical office management system adjusts the environment of a unit space corresponding to a seat, the situation of each employee seated in the seat located in the unit space may be considered. For example, if there are a total of five seats located in the unit space, and four of them are occupied by employees, and all four employees are in the Do Not Disturb mode, the environment of the unit space may be automatically optimized to a setting corresponding to the Do Not Disturb mode. However, if at least one of the employees seated in the unit space is in a mode other than the Do Not Disturb mode, instead of automatically optimizing the environment of the unit space to a setting corresponding to the Do Not Disturb mode, a notification suggesting the movement of the seat may be automatically sent to the terminal of the employee whose Do Not Disturb mode maintenance time exceeds the standard time. Through this, the employee whose Do Not Disturb mode maintenance time exceeds the standard time may be recommended to move the seat to an empty seat in another unit space optimized for the Do Not Disturb mode environment.

The method of FIG. 10 for the first user may be performed continuously until the first user ends work and logs off from the integrated work platform (S1010).

Hereinafter, some embodiments of the analysis step (S1002) of the operation information according to the method described above with reference to FIG. 10 will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 11 to 13.

First, FIGS. 11 and 12 illustrate operations related to determining the presence status of a first user when the work concentration score is measured using the continuous use time of the first work application. The determined presence status of the first user may be the presence status of a virtual office. In some embodiments, the determined presence status of the first user may be the presence status of a virtual office and the presence status of work software at the same time.

If the continuous use time of the first work application, which is a content authoring tool, becomes excessively long, the do not disturb mode may be automatically released. As a result, the information linkage system may be able to interrupt the first user from being excessively immersed in work for an excessively long time. That is, if the presence status of the first user's work software or the presence status of the virtual office is in the do not disturb mode, other employees will not talk to the first user, but if the presence status of the first user is released from the do not disturb mode, other employees will talk to the first user, and thus, the information linkage system may be able to 'interrupt' the first user from being excessively immersed in work for an excessively long time.

To perform this embodiment, in step S1002-1, a continuous usage time of the content authoring tool is measured, and if the continuous usage time exceeds a first reference time but does not exceed a second reference time, the presence status of the first user is set to a do-not-disturb mode (S1002-5), and if the continuous usage time exceeds the second reference time, the presence status of the first user is released from the do-not-disturb mode (S1002-4).

In some embodiments, when the continuous usage time exceeds the second reference time and the presence state is released from the do not disturb mode, the presence state may automatically be changed to a state that allows communication with other employees, such as a talkable state, a normal state, etc.

The second reference time is a longer time than the first reference time. The first reference time and the second reference time may be system setting values of the information linkage system, set by an administrator of the information linkage system, and uniformly applied to all users. In addition, the first reference time and the second reference time may not be system-wide setting values of the information linkage system, but may be setting values by department or by user group. In this case, the first reference time and the second reference time may be applied differently by department. In addition, the first reference time and the second reference time may have default values set for each content authoring tool used. For example, the first reference time and the second reference time default values of a document writing tool and the first reference time and the second reference time default values of a presentation material writing tool may be set differently from each other.

In addition, even if the first reference time and the second reference time are initially determined as the above-described setting values, they may be adjusted as personalized values for each user over time. For example, if, as a result of performing step S1002-4, the presence status of the first user is released from the Do Not Disturb mode, and there is an input to manually change the presence status to the Do Not Disturb mode through the user terminal of the first user, the second reference time may be automatically adjusted to be longer than the existing second reference time. In addition, for example, in a situation where the continuous use time does not reach the first reference time, if there is an input to manually change the presence status to the Do Not Disturb mode through the user terminal of the first user, the first reference time may be automatically adjusted to be shorter than the existing first reference time. In the above-described example, the adjustment of the first reference time or the second reference time is applied only to the first user. In this way, the first reference time and the second reference time may be automatically adjusted based on the user's behavior. Additionally, in some embodiments, a settings screen for manual adjustment of the first reference time and the second reference time may be displayed on the user terminal of the first user.

As illustrated in FIG. 12, in some embodiments, if the continuous usage time of the first user for the first work application exceeds the second reference time (S1002-3) and even exceeds the third reference time set longer than the second reference time (S1002-6), the presence status of the first user will automatically be changed to the do-not-disturb mode deactivated and the conversation request mode activated (S1002-7).

The above conversation request mode refers to a presence state in which another user requests a conversation with the first user, and a certain reward may be paid to another user who has started a conversation with a user in the conversation request mode. Since a reward is paid to another user who has started a conversation with a user in the conversation request mode, the above conversation request mode may be understood as a presence state that can only be set by the system, not a presence state that a user can manually change.

According to the embodiment described with reference to FIG. 12, as the time for which the first user continuously uses the first business software increases, the presence state of the first user will be automatically sequentially changed in the order of 'normal mode', 'do not disturb mode', 'normal mode', and 'conversation request mode'. That is, the present embodiment can prevent the first user, who is intensively and continuously using the content authoring tool, from being interrupted in that state of concentration by another user, but can also prevent fatigue from accumulating in the long term by maintaining the state of concentration for too long.

FIG. 13 illustrates operations related to determining the presence status of a first user when the work concentration score is measured using the operational concentration of a first work application. The determined presence status of the first user may be the presence status of a virtual office. In some embodiments, the determined presence status of the first user may be the presence status of a virtual office and work software.

As illustrated in FIG. 13, in step S1002-7, the operational concentration of the first business application, which is a content authoring tool, is measured, and if the measured operational concentration does not exceed the reference concentration (S1002-8), the information linkage system can prevent the do-not-disturb mode from being unnecessarily maintained by changing the presence status of the first user in the virtual office to the 'conversation-available' state (S1002-4). In addition, if the measured operational concentration does not exceed the reference concentration (S1002-8), the presence status of the first user in the virtual office will automatically be changed to the do-not-disturb mode activated state (S1002-5).

When the operational concentration is measured (S1002-7), the operational concentration can be calculated by using at least one evaluation factor among the number of operational inputs per unit time included in the operational information, the number of cases in which the focus is shifted to an application other than the first business software per unit time, and the rate at which the data size of the output per unit time increases. The evaluation factors described above are provided as examples, and other evaluation factors may be further considered when evaluating the operational concentration of the authoring tool.

In some embodiments, the Do Not Disturb mode may be subdivided according to the reason for automatically entering the Do Not Disturb mode. For example, if the Do Not Disturb mode is automatically entered because the work concentration score calculated based on the operation information for the document writing tool for writing the first document exceeds a reference value, the Do Not Disturb mode may have its level determined according to the importance of the first document. For example, if the importance of the first document is low, the level of the Do Not Disturb mode may be low, and if the importance of the first document is high, the level of the Do Not Disturb mode may be high. In addition, for example, the Do Not Disturb mode may have its level determined according to the type of the document writing tool.

Also, for example, the Do Not Disturb mode may have its level determined by the type of operation using the document creation tool. For example, the Do Not Disturb mode level may be higher when entering the Do Not Disturb mode during a presentation or meeting using the document creation tool than when entering the Do Not Disturb mode while performing a document creation task using the document creation tool.

In some embodiments, when the level of the do not disturb mode is low, only the presence state is changed to the do not disturb mode, when the level of the do not disturb mode is medium, the presence state is changed to the do not disturb mode and speaking in the virtual office is prohibited at the same time, and when the level of the do not disturb mode is high, the presence state is changed to the do not disturb mode and not only speaking in the virtual office but also communication via work software may be temporarily disabled. In this case, the communication received during the time the do not disturb mode is released may be displayed at once.

The 'conversation request mode' described with reference to FIGS. 14 and 15 is described in more detail.

Referring to FIG. 14, in steps S1001 to S1007, if activation of the do-not-disturb mode is determined through analysis of operation information on the first work software of the first user as described with reference to FIG. 10, the presence status of the first user's work software and the presence status in the virtual office are automatically changed to the do-not-disturb mode, and environmental adjustment of the seating position in the physical office can also be performed accordingly.

In step S1008, if the activation of the above-described 'conversation request mode' is determined, the presence status of the first user in the virtual office is automatically changed to the conversation request mode. In addition, in order to induce a conversation request from another user to the first user, the avatar of the first user can automatically circulate in the virtual office (S1009-2).

Referring to an exemplary virtual office screen (310-2) of FIG. 15, it can be confirmed that the first user's avatar (313) performs a preset automatic traversal (311) action, and the first user's presence mode is automatically changed to a conversation request mode (312). In addition, in some embodiments, a conversation request icon (314) may be displayed adjacent to the first user's avatar (313) so that other users can easily recognize in the virtual office that the first user is in the conversation request mode.

Figure 15 illustrates an avatar (313) of a first user performing an automatic traversal (311) in a square (322). In some embodiments, the virtual office location of the automatic traversal (311) and the path of the automatic traversal (311) may be automatically determined based on the type of the first business application and keywords included in the content being created using the first business application.

For example, if the type of the first business application is an authoring tool, Square (322) or Cafe (323) can be the location of the automatic traversal (311) so that the first user can cool his head in the conversation request mode.

For example, if the type of the first business application is a business messenger, the classroom (324) can be a location for automatic circulation (311) so that the first user can relieve stress caused by business communication with other users in conversation request mode.

For example, if the keyword 'metaverse' frequently appeared in content being written using the first business application, in the conversation request mode, a place where many avatars of users in whose recently written content 'metaverse' appeared are located may be an automatic navigation (311) location so that the first user can gain insight by having a conversation related to 'metaverse' with another user he or she meets by chance, and the path of the automatic navigation (311) may also be automatically set to pass through the avatars of users in whose recently written content 'metaverse' appeared.

Meanwhile, even if the presence status of the first user in the virtual office is automatically changed to the conversation request mode, the virtual office screen (310-2) may not be automatically displayed. In other words, the automatic change of the presence status of the first user in the virtual office to the conversation request mode is a 'passive interference' that 'disturbs' the first user's concentration state only when there is a conversation request from another user, and even if the presence status of the first user in the virtual office is automatically changed to the conversation request mode, the first user will still be able to perform concentrated work using the first work application.

However, if another user in the virtual office requests a conversation with the first user in conversation request mode, the virtual office screen (310-2) as shown in Fig. 15 is automatically displayed, thereby temporarily interrupting the first user's concentration and inducing the user to pay attention through conversation.

So far, a method for providing an integrated business platform based on business software operation information has been described with reference to FIGS. 10 to 15. The method described with reference to FIGS. 10 to 13 has as one of its characteristic operations automatically activating a do-not-disturb mode as a virtual office presence state for a first user based on business software operation information.

However, in some embodiments, a characteristic operation may be to automatically adjust the environment of the first user's seat when it is determined that the do-not-disturb mode is activated based on the first user's work software operation information. That is, when the do-not-disturb mode is activated for the first user, adjusting the environment of the first user's seat to correspond to the do-not-disturb mode is performed with priority, and switching the presence status in the virtual office to the do-not-disturb mode may be performed selectively.

At this time, in addition to the environment of the first user's seat, it goes without saying that the environment of the unit space corresponding to the seat may be additionally adjusted.

Next, with reference to FIGS. 16 to 25, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on work software operation information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described. The embodiments described with reference to FIGS. 16 to 25 have as one of their characteristic operations a 'refresh mode' for a first user that is automatically activated based on work progress information for a first application.

First, a description will be given with reference to Fig. 16. The method described with reference to Fig. 16 is for automatically suggesting that the first user perform a refresh activity when the work progress of the first user is slow.

In step S1601, the information linking system acquires work progress information of the first business software of the first user. For example, the first business software is a content authoring tool, and the work progress information may include at least one of the amount of content being created, the increase rate of the amount of content being created, and information on the work target page of the content being created. Next, the information linking system may analyze the acquired work progress information (S1602). The information linking system may determine whether to activate the refresh mode for the first user using the analysis result of the work progress information (S1603). If it is determined that the refresh mode for the first user is activated (S1603), the presence status of the first user in the business software may be automatically changed to the refresh mode (S1604), or the presence status of the first user in the virtual office may be automatically changed to the refresh mode (S1605). The method of FIG. 16 for the first user may be performed continuously until the first user ends work and logs off from the integrated work platform (S1610).

Referring to FIGS. 17 to 20, several embodiments related to analysis of the work progress information are described.

As illustrated in FIG. 17, the content volume of the work progress information can be verified (S1602-1) and the content volume increase speed can be calculated (S1602-2). The content volume can have a standard unit determined according to the type of the first business application. For example, the content volume applied to a document writing tool can be determined based on the number of pages or the number of words included. In addition, the content volume applied to a presentation material writing tool can be determined based on the number of objects included in the material or the number of pages. If the calculated increase speed is lower than the second standard speed according to the type of the first business application (S1602-3), the activation of the refresh mode for the first user can be determined (S1602-7).

In some embodiments, the information linkage system may further consider one or more additional evaluation factors in addition to the calculated increase rate to determine whether to activate the refresh mode for the first user. The additional evaluation factors may include at least one of the number of refresh mode automatic switching times for the day and the duration during which the calculated increase rate is below the first reference rate.

In some embodiments, different operations may be performed depending on how slow the computed increase rate is. In this regard, an explanation is given with reference to FIG. 18.

As illustrated in FIG. 18, the content volume of the work progress information may be verified (S1602-1) and the content volume increase speed calculation may be performed (S1602-2), and an operation of comparing the calculated increase speed with a first reference speed, a second reference speed, and a third reference speed (S1602-3, S1602-4, S1602-5) may be performed. The second reference speed is slower than the first reference speed, and the third reference speed is slower than the second reference speed. If the calculated increase speed is slower than the third reference speed, digital assistant intervention (S1602-6) may be performed. If the calculated increase speed is faster than the third reference speed but slower than the second reference speed, the presence status of the first user may be automatically changed to refresh mode as described above (S1602-7). If the calculated increase rate is faster than the second reference rate but slower than the first reference rate, the presence status of the first user may be automatically changed to the do not disturb mode described above (S1602-8).

That is, in the embodiment described with reference to FIG. 18, actions for overcoming the inefficient work state of the first user can be automatically performed in the order of 'automatic switching to presence state do not disturb mode', 'automatic switching to presence state refresh mode', and 'digital secretary intervention' in the order of slowing down the increase speed of the workload.

Digital assistant intervention (S1602-6) may mean automatic guidance of content authoring assistance through a chatbot or automatic guidance of content authoring assistance through an NPC in a virtual office. For example, the information linkage system may receive content being authored by a first user from a business software management system, extract keywords of a part currently being authored by the first user, and then discover content authoring assistance content for the extracted keywords.

In some embodiments, if the computed increasing speed is slower than the third reference speed as illustrated in FIG. 19, the presence state of the first user may be automatically changed to the refresh mode (S1602-7). If the computed increasing speed is faster than the third reference speed but slower than the second reference speed, digital assistant intervention (S1602-6) may be performed. If the computed increasing speed is faster than the second reference speed but slower than the first reference speed, the presence state of the first user may be automatically changed to the do-not-disturb mode described above (S1602-8).

That is, in the embodiment described with reference to FIG. 19, actions for overcoming the inefficient work state of the first user can be automatically performed in the order of 'automatic switching to presence state do not disturb mode', 'digital assistant intervention', and 'automatic switching to presence state refresh mode' in the order of slowing down the increase speed of the workload.

The information linking system can determine whether to follow the embodiment of FIG. 18 or the embodiment of FIG. 19 as sequential actions to be taken as the rate of increase in the workload of the first user slows down, taking into consideration the digital assistant utilization of the first user. That is, if the compliance of the first user with the digital assistant suggestion exceeds a standard compliance, the information linking system will follow the embodiment of FIG. 19, and if the compliance of the first user with the digital assistant suggestion does not reach the standard compliance, the information linking system will follow the embodiment of FIG. 18. This can prevent a digital assistant with expensive computational cost from being abused in a cost-ineffective manner.

In some other embodiments, the information linking system may determine whether to follow the embodiment of FIG. 18 or the embodiment of FIG. 19, taking into consideration the number of times the first user automatically switches to the refresh mode on the day, as the sequential action to be taken as the rate of increase in the workload of the first user slows down. That is, the information linking system may follow the embodiment of FIG. 19 if the number of times the first user automatically switches to the refresh mode on the day exceeds a reference number of automatic switchings, and may follow the embodiment of FIG. 18 if the number of times the first user automatically switches to the refresh mode on the day does not reach the reference number of automatic switchings. This prevents the effect of the refresh mode from being reduced due to excessively frequent use of the refresh mode.

Some other embodiments are described with reference to FIG. 20.

In step S1601, the information linkage system obtains work progress information of the first business software of the first user, analyzes the obtained work progress information (S1602), and determines whether to activate the refresh mode for the first user using the analysis result of the work progress information (S1603). If it is determined to activate the refresh mode for the first user (S1603), the presence status of the first user in the business software may be automatically changed to the refresh mode (S1604), or the presence status of the first user in the virtual office may be automatically changed to the refresh mode (S1605).

As described above, if the work progress information received from the business software management system satisfies the event requirement of a specific rule, and if an action of the specific rule is to be performed in the virtual office management system or the physical office management system according to the specific rule, the information linkage system can control the virtual office management system or the physical office management system so that the action can be performed.

In this embodiment, the specific rule may be to automatically switch the presence status of the first user's virtual office to the refresh mode when the work progress information of the first work application of the first user indicates that there is no progress for a period of time longer than a reference time.

In this embodiment, the specific rule may be to automatically switch the presence status of the first user's virtual office to a refresh mode and perform a communication recommendation process on the virtual office when the work progress information of the first work application of the first user falls below a standard.

In this embodiment, the specific rule may be such that when the work progress information of the first work application of the first user falls below the standard, the presence status in the virtual office of the first user is automatically switched to refresh mode, a communication recommendation process is performed in the virtual office, and a seat movement process is performed through the physical office management system.

That is, the information linkage system can perform at least one of the following: automatically switching the presence status of the first user in the virtual office to refresh mode (S1605), performing a communication recommendation process in the virtual office (S1616), or causing the physical office management system to perform a seat movement process (S1607), according to the definition of the above-mentioned specific rule.

For example, if the page progress of the content being written indicates that there is no progress for a period of time longer than a reference time, the refresh mode may be activated. That is, a first user who is writing a report through a document writing tool and is not making much progress due to a difficult subject may be recommended to have a conversation with other employees in the virtual office who can help with the progress of the work according to this embodiment. In this case, the conversation partner may be automatically selected using the text written on the last page of the content being written using the first business software.

This is explained with reference to FIGS. 21 to 23.

The current page (1606-1d) being written through the document writing tool (1606-1) displayed on the user terminal screen (1606) of the first user has not made any progress for a considerable period of time (S1606-1c). The information linkage system receives work progress information from the business software management system and can detect that the first user has not made any progress for a considerable period of time (S1606-1c).

The information linking system can further receive keywords (1606-1a, 1606-1b) of the current page (1606-1d) from the business software management system. The information linking system can request and receive information on employees related to the keywords (1606-1a, 1606-1b) from the business software management system or the virtual office management system. The employees related to the keywords (1606-1a, 1606-1b) may be employees whose job definition includes the keywords, employees whose recently written content includes the keywords as core keywords, or employees who frequently have conversations in a virtual office that include the keywords. The information linking system can determine, among the employees related to the keywords, employees who are currently connected to the virtual office and available for conversation as employees recommended for conversation.

The information linkage system can transmit a notification message (1606-2) displayed (1606-3) on the user terminal screen (1606) to the user terminal of the first user so that the notification message (1606-2) recommending a virtual office conversation with the above-mentioned conversation recommendation employee is displayed on the screen of the user terminal. When the first user presses the approval button (1606-4) of the notification message (1606-2), the exemplary virtual office screen (310-3) of FIG. 23 can be displayed on the user terminal screen (1606). At this time, in order to maximize the refresh effect, the virtual office screen (310-3) can be displayed on the user terminal screen (1606) in full screen mode.

Of course, the first user may reject the conversation recommendation by clicking the reject button (1606-5) in the notification message (1606-2) to take more time to think.

In some embodiments, instead of recommending conversations with other employees to the first user, the information linking system may automatically generate reference information including the keyword and provide the reference information to the first user. The information linking system may, for example, search for the keyword in an archive of previously recorded project execution records to extract a plurality of candidate materials, and further include other keywords included in the front part of the current page being written by the first user among the plurality of candidate materials, and finally select, as the reference information, materials of a project that has a similarity level higher than a threshold value with basic information of a project currently being performed by the first user.

In some embodiments, as illustrated in FIG. 22, the information linkage system may control the business software management system to display the notification message (1606-2) in the document creation tool (1606-1). In this case, the notification message (1606-2) will be displayed within the window of the document creation tool (1606-1), thereby dramatically increasing the attention of the first user who is watching the document creation tool (1606-1) to the notification message (1606-2).

An exemplary virtual office screen (310-3) of FIG. 23 illustrates a situation in which a first user's avatar (313) is having a conversation with a conversation recommendation employee (317, 319) in a virtual office. It can be confirmed that the first user's presence mode is automatically changed to a refresh mode (316). In addition, in some embodiments, a refresh mode icon (315) may be displayed adjacent to the first user's avatar (313) so that other users can easily recognize that the first user is in the refresh mode in the virtual office.

Other employees adjacent to the first user's avatar (313) in the virtual office may be curious about the reason for the first user's automatic switching to refresh mode. In some embodiments, in response to a mouse over or click input for the refresh mode icon (315), the reason for the first user's automatic switching to refresh mode may be displayed. For example, the reason for the automatic switching to refresh mode may be a keyword (1606-1a, 1606-1b) of the current page (1606-1d).

That is, when the first user is having difficulty progressing with work, the first user is automatically switched to refresh mode in the virtual office, and other employees are able to know keywords related to the first user's difficulty progressing with work, which will help resolve the first user's difficulty.

Through the descriptions above, examples have been described in which users who have been automatically switched to refresh mode can resolve difficulties in progressing their work by engaging in conversations with other employees. Below, several other examples in which suggestions other than those for encouraging conversations with other employees are displayed on the user terminal of users who have been automatically switched to refresh mode are additionally described.

In some embodiments, the information linkage system may transmit related data so that a user terminal of a user who has been automatically switched to the refresh mode may display a usage suggestion message for a recommended facility of a physical office or a recommended facility of a virtual office. The recommended facility may be determined based on a rule set including one or more rules. The rule set may include one or more rules that match a context with a recommended facility. For example, the rule set may include a time zone-based rule generated to match an in-house cafe with the recommended facility during a specific time period, a reason-based rule that matches a recommended facility based on a reason for automatically switching to the refresh mode, and a body condition-based rule that matches a body condition with a recommended facility. At this time, the information linkage system may additionally use a measurement value of a sensor for predicting the body condition of the user in order to determine the body condition of the user. For example, the information linkage system may determine how long the user has been in the same posture through a sensor installed on a seat or a motion detection sensor installed on a desk, and if the time for which the user has been in the same posture exceeds a reference value, the situation may be determined as a stretching requirement situation.

As described above, the recommended facility may be a specific space included in the virtual office. For example, the recommended facility may be a resting space in the virtual office implemented with the atmosphere of a resort, a music appreciation space in the virtual office where music is played through the user terminal when visiting, a space in the virtual office where content of digital therapeutics with proven physical effects such as muscle relaxation can be played, or a stretching space in the virtual office where yoga or stretching content is played.

Additionally, in some embodiments, the information linkage system may also transmit a control signal to the physical office management system to cause environmental changes to be implemented for refreshing the seat of a user who has automatically switched to the refresh mode. For example, the information linkage system may control white noise to be played at the seat of a user who has automatically switched to the refresh mode.

Above, various measures for a user who is automatically switched to refresh mode have been described. The information linkage system can monitor whether the user's work progress improves after taking measures for a user who is automatically switched to refresh mode through the business software management system. For example, the work progress can be monitored by whether the congestion of the page being worked on is resolved. Through this, the information linkage system can store effective measures for the first user who is automatically switched to refresh mode, and perform the stored effective measures for the first user when the first user is automatically switched to refresh mode later. For more detailed measures, the information linkage system can store effective measures for the first user who is automatically switched to refresh mode by dividing them into situations in which the user is automatically switched to refresh mode.

Meanwhile, as illustrated in FIG. 24, if the first user (313) is having a conversation with a conversation recommendation employee (317, 319) in a virtual office for a preset period of time or longer, and both the first user (313) and the conversation recommendation employee (317, 319) are in the physical office, the information linkage system can send an inquiry request to the physical office management system for a conference room that is close to the seats where the first user (313) and the conversation recommendation employee (317, 319) are seated as available conference rooms.

When the information linkage system receives confirmation of whether a conference room has been reserved according to the above inquiry request from the physical office management system, the information linkage system may control the virtual office management system to display (330) a notification message (317) for a conference room reservation proposal on the virtual office screen (310-4). When both the first user (313) and the conversation recommendation employee (317, 319) press the approval button (318), the information linkage system may transmit a confirmation response regarding the confirmation of whether a conference room has been reserved to the physical office management system. In addition, the information linkage system may automatically move the avatar of the first user and the avatar of the conversation recommendation employee (317, 319) to the virtual office conference room corresponding to the reserved physical office conference room.

So far, with reference to FIGS. 10 to 24, embodiments have been described in which user status information is automatically changed in a virtual office based on information such as the user's operation of work software. Specifically, it has been described that when the user is determined to be concentrating on work based on information such as the user's operation of work software, the user's presence status in the virtual office can be automatically changed to a mode indicating a do not disturb mode, and when the user is determined to be having difficulty progressing with work based on information such as the user's operation of work software, the user's presence status in the virtual office can be automatically changed to a mode indicating a need for refresh.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the environment of a location adjacent to the user's avatar in the virtual office may be automatically changed based on information such as the user's operation of business software, the user's schedule information stored in the business software management system, the user's project performance information stored in the business software management system, or the user's communication log stored in the business software management system.

For example, a lighting effect may be rendered targeting an area in a virtual office or a relative avatar on which the first user should focus. And, as described above, the area in a virtual office or a relative avatar on which the first user should focus can be determined using information managed by a business software management system.

For example, when the avatar of the first user moves in a virtual office, a lighting effect may be rendered for the avatars of employees who have a history of communication with the first user via email or messenger, or who need to communicate with the first user, so that the first user can easily identify the avatars of the communication targets whose lights are shining. Here, the employees who need to communicate with the first user may be, for example, employees who are working on a project together with the first user and sharing an unresolved communication issue, or employees who are sending and receiving messages to and from each other through a business communication tool that the first user is operating.

In addition, a lighting effect may be rendered targeting an area or object in the virtual office that the first user should focus on. For example, if the schedule information of the first user includes a meeting in a specific conference room in the virtual office and the current time is close to the meeting time, a lighting effect targeting the specific conference room may be rendered when the first user's avatar is close to the specific conference room. As a result, the first user will be able to quickly identify the location of the specific conference room.

Next, referring to FIG. 25, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on work software operation information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is described. This embodiment is characterized in that, as one of its features, a recommendation for moving a physical office seat for a first user is performed based on work progress information for a first application.

In step S1601, the information linkage system obtains work progress information of the first business software of the first user, analyzes the obtained work progress information (S1602), and determines whether to activate the refresh mode for the first user using the analysis result of the work progress information (S1603). If it is determined to activate the refresh mode for the first user (S1603), the presence status of the first user in the business software can be automatically changed to the refresh mode (S1604).

In addition, the information linkage system can request the physical office management system to perform a seat movement process (S1608). The seat movement process is intended to suggest a change to a new seat for a change of atmosphere to the first user who needs to refresh.

The seat movement process performed by the physical office management system may include obtaining information on a seat of the first user, inputting the obtained seat into a clustering model to determine a cluster of the seat as a first cluster, searching for an empty seat belonging to a second cluster having a cluster attribute value different from a reference value or more from the first cluster, and outputting information on the searched empty seat.

In some embodiments, the second cluster may be a cluster whose distance from the first cluster in the feature space according to the clustering model is greater than or equal to a reference distance.

That is, the physical office management system may determine a cluster of the current seated seat by inputting attribute information of the current seated seat of the first user into a pre-learned clustering model, and may determine an empty seat among seats belonging to a cluster different from the cluster of the current seat according to the clustering model as a recommended candidate seat.

In addition, the physical office management system can score the suitability of each of the recommended candidate seats when there are multiple recommended candidate seats. For example, when the analysis result of the work progress information performed in step S1602 indicates a serious state of work progress stagnation, the suitability score of the recommended candidate seat belonging to a cluster that is farther away from the cluster of the current seat in the feature space according to the clustering model may be evaluated higher. Accordingly, the physical office management system can propose to drastically change the surrounding environment of the seat when the state of work progress stagnation is serious.

In some embodiments, the seat movement process performed by the physical office management system may request the virtual office management system to output information about a seat in the virtual office as a recommended seat when there is no empty seat belonging to the second cluster having a different cluster attribute value than the first cluster by a threshold value or more. That is, in various situations, such as when there is no empty seat suitable for movement among the seats in the physical office, a seating suggestion message for a specific seat in the virtual office may be output to the user terminal. That is, in a situation where the refresh mode is activated for an employee who has come to work at the physical office, the information linkage system can indirectly induce the first employee to leave the physical office by suggesting that he/she sit in a specific seat in the virtual office.

Meanwhile, this embodiment can also be applied to a state where the refresh mode is automatically activated while the first user is seated in a specific seat in a virtual office where the physical office and seating arrangement are implemented identically in a digital twin manner.

That is, the first user is seated in a specific seat of the virtual office, but the seat movement process may be performed assuming that the first user is seated in a seat of the physical office corresponding to the seat of the virtual office. As a result, a seat movement to a specific seat of the physical office may be recommended to the first user connected to the virtual office. Of course, a seat movement to a specific seat of the physical office may be recommended to the first user connected to the virtual office only when the location of the user terminal of the first user is located within a standard distance from the geographical location of the physical office.

In step S1609, the information linkage system can generate a seat movement recommendation message to be displayed on a screen of a user terminal device using recommended seat information received as a result of performing the seat movement process from the physical office management system, and transmit data of the generated message to the user terminal of the first user.

The method of FIG. 25 for the first user may be performed continuously until the first user ends work and logs off from the integrated work platform (S1610).

Next, referring to FIGS. 26 to 29, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on information on operation of business software according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is described. One of the features of this embodiment is that it determines whether the first user's work is suspended based on operation information on the first application of the first user, and information on issue facilities in the physical office at the time of suspension of work is automatically provided.

In step S2601, the information linkage system can obtain real-time operation information of the first business software of the first user. The information linkage system can obtain the operation information in real-time only during the issue time period. For example, the issue time period may be a predefined lunch time period.

In step S2602, the information linkage system analyzes the acquired operation information (S2602) and determines whether the first user is in a work suspension state using the analysis result of the work progress information (S2603). For example, the information linkage system can determine that the work is in a work suspension state if, according to the operation information, the number of input operations per unit time is less than the standard number of operations and continues for a standard time or longer.

The information linkage system can inquire the physical office management system whether there is an issue facility at the time when the first user is judged to be in a work suspension state (S2604). For example, if the time when the work suspension state is judged to be in a work suspension state is lunch time, the issue facility may be an in-house restaurant. In addition, if the time when the work suspension state is judged to be in a work-off state is off-hours, the issue facility may be a work-off shuttle bus or an exit gate. The physical office management system can manage an issue facility table by time zone.

The information linkage system can obtain usage information on the issue facility from the physical office management system (S2605). For example, the information linkage system can obtain congestion information for each in-house restaurant from the physical office management system. The information linkage system can use the obtained issue facility usage information to generate a notification message and transmit data of the notification message to be displayed on the user terminal of the first user to the user terminal of the first user (S2606).

The method of FIG. 26 for the first user may be performed continuously until the first user ends work and logs off from the integrated work platform (S2610).

Fig. 27 illustrates an exemplary notification message (2606-2) displayed on a user terminal screen (2606) of a first user. When the first user is writing a specific page (2606-1a) of the first business software (2606-1), the number of input operations per unit time is maintained below the standard number of operations for a standard time period or longer (2606-1b), and as a result, a notification message (2606-2) may be displayed (2606-2a).

Meanwhile, if the usage information for the above-mentioned issue facility indicates that the current congestion of the above-mentioned issue facility exceeds the first criterion, a communication recommendation process may be performed. As in the situation illustrated in FIG. 27, since most of the in-house cafeterias are congested or very congested, it would be more efficient for the first user to have a useful conversation with other employees during that time rather than going down to the in-house cafeteria right away. In order to satisfy this need, as illustrated in FIG. 28, a notification message (2606-3) displayed (2606-3a) on a screen (2606) such as the first business software (2606-1) may include a conversation recommendation message (2606-3b).

The conversation partner of the conversation recommendation message (2606-3b) can be automatically selected from among the user's avatars existing in the virtual office space. The automatic selection can be, for example, a random selection.

In addition, the automatic selection may be made from among employees currently connected to the virtual office space who are related to the keyword (not shown) included in the page (2606-1a) being worked on. Employees related to the keyword may be employees whose job definition includes the keyword, employees whose recently written content includes the keyword as a core keyword, or employees who frequently have conversations in the virtual office that include the keyword.

Meanwhile, if the usage information for the issue facility indicates that the current congestion of the issue facility exceeds the first criterion, a light task recommendation process may be performed. Here, the light task may be, for example, a task that can be completed in a short time, such as replying to an email, among the tasks included in the task list of the first user, and if the light task recommendation process is performed, the light tasks are extracted from the task list or scheduler of the first user, and a performance recommendation message for at least some of the extracted light tasks may be displayed on the user terminal of the first user.

Meanwhile, if the usage information for the above issue facility indicates that the current congestion of the above issue facility exceeds the first criterion, a recommended content provision process may be performed. If the recommended content provision process is performed, extraction of keywords based on analysis of the first user's target task or recently created content, selection of keywords included in a previously stored issue keyword list among the extracted keywords, and display of previously stored recommended content for the selected keywords may be performed.

The conversation approval button (2606-3c) and the conversation rejection button (2606-3d) may be displayed adjacent to the conversation recommendation message (2606-3b). FIG. 29 illustrates a virtual office screen (310-5) that may be displayed by way of example when the conversation approval button (2606-3c) is pressed, and illustrates that when the avatar (313) of the first user is having a conversation with the conversation partner (317) recommended in the notification message (2606-3), if the congestion level of the issue facility falls below the second threshold, information (331) about the use of the issue facility is automatically displayed (333) on the screen of the virtual office space. FIG. 29 also illustrates that the presence status of the first user is a normal state (332). While the first user is having a conversation with the automatically selected conversation partner in response to the alarm, the congestion level of the issue facility may be monitored.

In some embodiments, the second criterion and the first criterion may be the same value.

In some other embodiments, the second threshold and the first threshold may have different values and may be automatically adjusted according to the hourly conversation traffic between the first user and the conversation partner (317). For example, the higher the hourly conversation traffic between the first user and the conversation partner (317), the lower the second threshold may be adjusted compared to the first threshold, thereby preventing the conversation between the first user and the conversation partner (317) from being interrupted.

Next, with reference to FIGS. 30 to 34, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on operation information of business software according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is described. The present embodiment mainly features a configuration of determining whether it is necessary to perform a mingling activity in a virtual office for a first user or whether it is necessary to consider a mingling element in seat allocation in a physical office based on operation information for a first application of a first user.

In this embodiment, the first user may be a new employee hired within a specified number of days from the date of employment. Alternatively, the first user may further include an employee registered as a management target by the HR (Human Resource) department.

First, referring to FIGS. 30 and 31, a method for providing an integrated business platform based on business software operation information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is described.

Referring to Figure 30, the information linkage system obtains operation information on the first user's business communication tool (S3001).

The information linkage system can analyze the acquired operation information (S3002) and determine whether the first user needs to mingle.

The information linking system may determine that mingling of the first user is necessary if the acquired manipulation information includes communication traffic less than a standard value. In addition, the information linking system may determine that mingling of the first user is necessary if the acquired manipulation information includes communication traffic only with a small number of people less than a standard number of people.

In addition, the information linkage system may determine that mingling of the first user is necessary if the acquired manipulation information indicates a transmission/reception communication traffic ratio below a standard ratio. In other words, if the communication of a new employee is mainly reception-oriented, mingling activity may be determined to be necessary.

If it is determined that mingling of the first user is necessary (S3003), the information linkage system can transmit a notification message to the user terminal of the first user so that a notification message for performing a mingling activity between the avatar of the first user and the avatars of the participants in the virtual office space is displayed on the user terminal of the first user (S3004). The participants of the mingling activity can be multiple employees selected using the department to which the first user belongs.

The above notification message may be displayed on the screen of the business communication tool. If the invitation to the Mingling activity according to the above notification message is accepted, the virtual office navigation application for entering the virtual office space will be executed or activated, and the virtual office screen will be displayed. The virtual office navigation application and the business communication tool are different from each other.

The timing of sending the above notification message can be determined using the schedules of the participants and the first user to increase the participation rate.

The above Mingling activity is a special purpose activity in a virtual office where ice-breaking topics are automatically presented, Mingling activity-limited avatar interactions and Mingling activity-limited virtual office objects are provided. These Mingling activity-limited interactions and virtual office objects can serve as fun elements and increase Mingling activity participation.

Referring to the virtual office screen (310-6) of the exemplary mingling activity illustrated in FIG. 31, in the mingling activity state (336) being performed by the first user (313, 319) and the mingling activity participant (317, 318), an ice-breaking topic (335, 338, 339) automatically provided by the system can be automatically displayed (337). Through this ice-breaking topic, a natural conversation can be held between the first user (313, 319) and the mingling activity participant (317, 318).

Additionally, other users passing by the avatar of the first user (313) in the virtual office will be able to see the mingling icon (330) displayed adjacent to the first user (313) and naturally join the conversation.

In some embodiments, the mingling activity may also be performed on issue employees who are not new employees. The issue employees may not be new employees, but may be employees who have transferred teams or have been reassigned to work and are having difficulty adjusting. In this case, the participant may be an employee designated by at least one of the department heads of the issue employees and the human resources manager of the company. That is, in order to increase the effectiveness of the mingling activity, the participant may not be the manager of the issue employees.

The ice-breaking topics automatically generated by the system for the Mingling activity for issue employees and the Mingling activity for new employees may be different. For example, the ice-breaking topic for the Mingling activity for new employees may be a topic for getting to know each other, such as a quiz that matches information about the participants, but the ice-breaking topic for the Mingling activity for issue employees may be a topic related to the work of the issue employees.

In some embodiments, a reward may be given to a mingling activity participant (317, 318). This reward may encourage participation in the mingling activity, and this mingling activity activation may aid in the successful onboarding of new employees.

The above-described embodiment automatically suggests the performance of a mingling activity in a virtual office if the new employee is having difficulty communicating with other employees through analysis of the operation information of the new employee's business communication tool. This will help the new employee overcome communication difficulties with the main communication partners.

Referring to FIGS. 32 to 34, a method for providing an integrated business platform based on business software operation information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure is described.

Referring to Fig. 32, the information linking system obtains operation information on a business communication tool of a first user (S3001). The information linking system analyzes the obtained operation information (S3002) and can determine whether mingling of the first user is necessary. If the obtained operation information includes communication traffic below a reference value, the information linking system can determine that mingling of the first user is necessary (S3003). In addition, the information linking system can determine that mingling of the first user is necessary if the obtained operation information includes communication traffic with only a small number of people below a reference number of people. In addition, the information linking system can determine that mingling of the first user is necessary if the obtained operation information indicates a transmission/reception communication traffic ratio below a reference ratio (S3003). In other words, if a new employee's communication is mainly reception-oriented, mingling activity can be determined to be necessary.

Next, the information linkage system can receive from the physical office management system that the seat allocation request of the first user has been received (S3005). That is, when the physical office management system receives a seat allocation request from a pre-registered user, it can share the fact with the information linkage system. The pre-registered user can be a new employee or an issue employee as described above.

The information linkage system can control the physical office management system so that the first user can be assigned a seat adjacent to the first user's team members (S3006). Hereinafter, a method for assigning the first user a seat adjacent to the first user's team members will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 33 and 34.

Hereinafter, the description will be made on the premise that the exemplary virtual office screen (310-7) of Fig. 33 reflects the seating status of an actual physical office seat in a digital twin manner. That is, the virtual office screen (310-7) of Fig. 33 displays the seating status of a physical office on a computer screen. It is assumed that the first user has requested seat allocation on the 6th floor. As shown in Fig. 33, three team members (341, 340, 342) of the first user are seated on the 6th floor. There are seven empty seats (343, 344, 345, 346, 347, 348, 349) on the 6th floor. The information linkage system may control the physical office management system so that the empty seat (344) located between the team members (341, 340, 342) among the seven empty seats is allocated to the first user.

A method for assigning a seat adjacent to the team members of the first user to the first user is further described with reference to FIG. 34. FIG. 34 is a diagram for explaining an exemplary method for selecting an empty seat that is easiest to communicate with and closest to the team members by coordinating the arrangement of each seat. It is assumed that there are a total of 64 seats (7 X 9) in an office space where the first user has requested seat assignment. And, four team members are seated (350, 351, 353, 352). The information linkage system can calculate the center point (354) of the team member seating seats. Then, the information linkage system can determine the empty seat that is closest to the center point (354) as the seat to be assigned to the first user. In the exemplary situation illustrated in Fig. 34, the first empty seat (355) has a distance of 2 from the center point (354), and the second empty seat (356) has a distance of 1 from the center point (354), so the second empty seat (356) will be assigned to the first user.

In some embodiments, the above-described team member adjacent seat assignment method may be performed upon seat assignment request in a virtual office as well as a physical office.

3. Linking information generated in physical office facilities to virtual offices or business software

Below, examples are described of events in which information generated in the facilities of a physical office indicates the occurrence of an event that will result in an action being linked to a virtual office or business software management system.

This table of contents will illustrate, with reference to several exemplary embodiments, how information generated based on an employee's activities in a physical office may result in changes to settings for business software used by the employee, automated changes to the status of the employee's virtual office, or suggestions for the employee to perform certain activities in the virtual office.

As described above, the technical ideas that can be understood from the embodiments described in "Table of Contents 1. Integrated Business Platform" and "2. Linkage of Information Generated from Business Software to Physical Office or Virtual Office" can be obviously applied to each embodiment described in this Table of Contents even without separate mention. In addition, the methods according to the embodiments described in this Table of Contents can be understood as the operation method of the information linkage system described above. The above methods can be performed by one or more computing devices. That is, the above methods may be performed by one computing device for all operations, or some operations may be performed by other computing devices. Hereinafter, in describing the above methods, the description of the subject of performing some operations may be omitted, and in this case, the subject of performing the operations may be, for example, the information linkage system (100) described with reference to FIG. 8. In addition, since the server system is implemented on a cloud computing node, operations performed by one server system may also be divided and performed on multiple cloud computing nodes. Additionally, the above methods may be executed by dividing one or more operations in multiple containers created on one virtual machine or one physical server.

Hereinafter, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on physical office facility occurrence information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 35. In FIG. 35, an operation will be described for analyzing seat seating information of a physical office of a first user and automatically adjusting environment settings such as UI themes applied to work software of the first user using the results, or for providing a customized UX experience to the first user using the analysis results of seat seating information of the physical office of the first user.

In step S3501, the information linkage system can obtain the seating seat information of the first user from the physical office management system. In addition, in step S3502, the information linkage system can obtain the environmental information of the unit space corresponding to the seating seat of the first user from the physical office management system. The information linkage system can analyze the obtained seating seat information and the environmental information of the unit space (S3503, S3504).

Additionally, in some embodiments, the information linkage system may obtain operation information on the first work software of the first user and use the operation information to determine whether to activate the do-not-disturb mode for the first user (S3505, S3506).

Next, the information linkage system can automatically adjust environment setting values, such as UI theme, applied to the first user's first work software by using at least one of the analysis results of seating information, the analysis results of environmental information of a unit space, and whether the do-not-disturb mode is activated.

For example, as illustrated in FIG. 36, if the seat of a first user included in an office space (420) belongs to a concentrated seating area (421), a dark mode UI theme may be applied to the first user's first work software to assist the first user's work concentration. That is, if the type information of the seat included in the seat information indicates a concentrated type, the UI theme may be automatically adjusted to have an attribute corresponding to the concentrated type, and it may be understood that an exemplary UI theme having an attribute corresponding to the concentrated type is the dark mode.

In addition, in some embodiments, if the type information of the seat included in the seat information indicates a concentrated type and it is determined that the do-not-disturb mode is to be activated, the UI theme may be automatically adjusted to one having an attribute corresponding to the concentrated type. That is, whether or not to automatically adjust the UI theme to one having an attribute corresponding to the concentrated type may be determined by considering both the type of the seat and the operating form of the business software.

In addition, if the seat of the first user included in the office space (420) belongs to the communication-type seating area (422), a UI theme of light mode can be applied to the first work software of the first user, thereby inducing a psychological state helpful for communication of the first user.

In some embodiments, if the type information of the seat included in the seat information indicates a communicative type and it is determined that the do not disturb mode is activated, the UI theme may be automatically adjusted to have an attribute corresponding to the focused type. That is, for a first user who is seated in a communicative type seat but is concentrating on operating business software to the extent that the do not disturb mode is automatically activated, the UI theme may be automatically adjusted to a type that helps concentration, such as a dark mode, of the business software to assist concentration.

In some embodiments, the analysis result of the environmental information of the unit space may be further taken into consideration so that the UI theme of the first work software of the first user may be automatically adjusted. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 37, assume that the communicative seating area (422) is divided into four independent cells (422a, 422b, 422c, 422d) in which the environment can be independently produced. As illustrated in FIG. 37, the four independent cells (422a, 422b, 422c, 422d) each have different environments. Accordingly, if the seat of the first user belongs to the communicative seating area (422), each property of the UI theme of the dark mode may be finely adjusted depending on which cell the seat is located in more detail.

For example, the dark mode UI theme of the first work software of the first user seated in the seat of the cell (422b) with high brightness can be fine-tuned to have relatively darker brightness, the dark mode UI theme of the first work software of the first user seated in the seat of the cell (422d) with low brightness can be fine-tuned to have relatively brighter brightness, the dark mode UI theme of the first work software of the first user seated in the seat of the cell (422b) with low temperature can be fine-tuned to include some color arrangements that give a warm feeling, and the dark mode UI theme of the first work software of the first user seated in the seat of the cell (422c) with high temperature can be fine-tuned to include some color arrangements that give a cool feeling.

Hereinafter, a method for providing an integrated business platform based on information on occurrence of physical office facilities according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 38. In FIG. 38, an operation will be described in which seat seating information of a physical office of a first user is analyzed and a mingling activity in a virtual office targeting the first user is automatically proposed using the result.

In step S3801, the information linkage system can obtain and analyze the seating history information of the first user from the physical office management system. For example, the information linkage system can use the seating history information of the first user and the seating history information of the department members to which the first user belongs to calculate statistics on the distance between the position of the seating seat of the first user and the positions of the seating seats of the department members to which the first user belongs, and can use the calculated statistics to determine whether the first user needs mingling (S3802).

In step S3804, the information linkage system may transmit a notification message to the user terminal of the first user so that the notification message for performing a mingling activity between the avatar of the first user and the avatars of the participants in the virtual office space is displayed on the user terminal of the first user. With respect to the mingling activity, reference may be made to the configuration related to the embodiment described with reference to FIGS. 30 to 31.

Hereinafter, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on information on occurrence of physical office facilities according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 39. In FIG. 39, an operation will be described in which seat seating information of a first user's physical office is analyzed and the position of the first user's avatar in a virtual office is automatically updated using the result.

In step S3801, the information linkage system acquires facility usage information, such as seating information of the first user, from the physical office management system. If the virtual office is a digital twin of the physical office, digital transformation may need to be performed using the facility usage information of the first user acquired from the physical office management system (S3902), so that the avatar location of the first user in the virtual office may be automatically updated to a location corresponding to the seating seat of the physical office (S3903).

For example, if the facility use information is seating information of a first user for a free seat, the information linkage system may update the seating information of the first user in the virtual office using the seating information of the facility use information.

For example, if the facility usage information is a purchase information of a first user for an in-house cafe, the information linking system may update the location of the first user's virtual office to the cafe.

For example, if the facility use information is reservation information for a physical office conference room, the information linking system may update the location of the first user in the virtual office to the conference room corresponding to the reservation information, and update the location of the avatar of the conference participant according to the reservation information to the conference room corresponding to the reservation information.

4. Linking information generated in the virtual office to the physical office or business software

Below, examples are described of information generated in a virtual office that indicates the occurrence of an event that will result in an action being linked to a physical office or business software management system.

This table of contents will illustrate, with reference to several exemplary embodiments, how information generated based on an employee's activities in a virtual office may result in changes to settings in business software used by the employee, or in automated changes to the status of the employee's physical office.

As described above, the technical ideas that can be understood from the embodiments described in "Table of Contents 1. Integrated Business Platform", "2. Linkage of Information Generated from Business Software to Physical Office or Virtual Office", and "3. Linkage of Information Generated from Physical Office Facilities to Virtual Office or Business Software" can be obviously applied to each embodiment described in this Table of Contents even without separate mention. In addition, the methods according to the embodiments described in this Table of Contents can be understood as the operation methods of the information linkage system described above. The above methods can be performed by one or more computing devices. That is, the above methods may all perform operations by one computing device, or some operations may be performed by other computing devices. Hereinafter, in describing the above methods, the description of the performer of some operations may be omitted, and in this case, the performer may be, for example, the information linkage system (100) described with reference to FIG. 8. In addition, as the server system is implemented on a cloud computing node, operations performed by one server system may also be divided and performed on multiple cloud computing nodes. In addition, the above methods may be divided and executed as one or more operations in multiple containers created on one virtual machine or one physical server.

Hereinafter, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on virtual office occurrence information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 40. In FIG. 40, an operation in which an information linkage system adjusts the environment of a first user's seat or automatically suggests movement of the seat according to the amount of activity in the first user's virtual office will be described.

In step S4001, the information linkage system obtains and analyzes activity information of the first user from the virtual office management system. The activity information may include conversation traffic, the length of the internal movement path of the virtual office, the number and duration of tasks performed in the virtual office, the number and duration of meetings performed in the virtual office, and the like. For example, the information linkage system may calculate an activity index using the conversation traffic, the number of meetings, and the meeting duration of the first user in the virtual office.

If the above activity index exceeds the first reference activity, the information linkage system can obtain the seating information of the first user from the physical office management system and transmit a control signal for adjusting the environment of the seating seat of the first user to the physical office management system (S4003, 4004). For example, if the first user was highly active in the virtual office, the energy consumption of the first user would have been significant, similar to when the first user was highly active in the physical office, and therefore the environment of the seating seat can be made similar to when the user is concentrated.

In some embodiments, when the activity indicator also exceeds a second reference activity amount that is higher than the first reference activity amount, the information linkage system may request the logistics office management system to perform a seat movement process in the physical office management system (S4006), and output a seat movement recommendation message indicating a recommended seat output as a result of performing the seat movement process. That is, the information linkage system may enable a first user with a high level of activity in the virtual office to easily move to a seat suitable for the activity in the virtual office.

The seat movement process performed by the physical office management system may include obtaining information on a seat of the first user, inputting the obtained seat into a clustering model to determine a cluster of the seat as a first cluster, searching for an empty seat belonging to a second cluster having a cluster attribute value different from a reference value or more from the first cluster, and outputting information on the searched empty seat.

At this time, since a high level of activity in the virtual office means a high level of meetings or communication in the virtual office, the environment of the seating seat after moving should have a high level of noise so as not to disturb other employees, and should be cool to offset the high level of activity. That is, the noise level of the second cluster may be higher than that of the first cluster, and the temperature of the second cluster may be lower than that of the first cluster.

Hereinafter, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on virtual office occurrence information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 41. In FIG. 41, an operation in which an information linkage system adjusts the environment of a first user's seat or automatically suggests movement of the seat according to the type of activity performed in the first user's virtual office will be described.

In step S4101, the information linkage system obtains a notification from the virtual office management system that the first user has started performing the activity. If the type of the activity is a pre-specified first type (S4102), the information linkage system may request and obtain information on the seat where the first user is seated from the physical office management system (S4103), and may transmit a control signal to the physical office management system to adjust the environment of the seat where the first user is seated to an environment corresponding to the first type of activity (S4104).

The first type of activity is a refresh activity, and the seating environment setting corresponding to the refresh activity may include at least one of background sound playback and lighting adjustment signals. In addition, the information linkage system may automatically adjust the UI theme applied to the first work software of the first user to one having an attribute corresponding to the refresh type. For example, the UI theme having an attribute corresponding to the refresh type may be designed using an image of a resort.

In addition, in some embodiments, the information linking system may control the first business software and the one or more other business software through the business software management system to at least partially limit an alarm display function of the first business software and the one or more other business software other than the first business software. Meanwhile, in order to prevent indiscriminate alarm ignoring due to the alarm display limitation, the alarm display limitation may be performed only when the performance of the refresh activity is initiated by selecting a refresh recommendation button of the system for the first user.

Meanwhile, the first type of activity may refer to performing a quest given by a virtual office management system.

Meanwhile, the first type of activity may refer to a conversation between the first user and a designated counterparty in the virtual office.

In some embodiments, the information linkage system may obtain and analyze activity information of a first user from a virtual office management system. The activity information may be limited to that collected while the first user is performing the activity.

For example, the information linkage system can calculate an activity index using the conversation traffic, number of meetings, and meeting time of the first user on the virtual office. If the activity index exceeds the second reference activity, the information linkage system can request the logistics office management system to perform a seat movement process in the physical office management system (S4106), and output a seat movement recommendation message indicating a recommended seat output as a result of performing the seat movement process.

Hereinafter, a method for providing an integrated work platform based on virtual office occurrence information according to another embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to FIG. 42. In FIG. 41, an operation will be described in which, depending on the type of activity performed in a virtual office of a first user, an information linkage system automatically changes the presence information of a work communication tool to an activity being performed, or automatically adjusts the UI theme of work software according to the type of activity performed in a virtual office. The work communication tool may be understood to be different from an application for entering the virtual office.

That is, in this embodiment, when a specific user performs a specific activity in a virtual office, an action for that activity is triggered on the business software side, so that other employees can be made aware of the activity performance status, or the environment settings, such as the UI theme of the business software, can be linked to the performance status of the specific activity.

In step S4201, the information linkage system obtains a notification from the virtual office management system that the first user has started performing an activity. If the type of the activity is a pre-specified first type (S4202), the information linkage system may request the business software management system to update the presence information of the first user to the activity being performed (S4203).

The above activity may be performing a quest given by a virtual office management system, excluding looking around a virtual office through movement of an avatar and conversations between other avatars. The first type of activity may include at least one of a refresh activity, a mingling activity, and a disaster response training activity.

In addition, the information linkage system may automatically adjust the UI theme applied to the first work software of the first user to one having an attribute corresponding to the type of activity performed by the first user (S4204). In this regard, reference may be made to the embodiment described with reference to FIG. 41.
