Store management system, store controller, store control method, management server, management method and program

Abstract

It is possible to effectively and stably manage devices arranged in a shop. A sensor (1) measures environment information. A management server (11) accumulates environment information in an accumulation unit (not depicted). According to the environment information accumulated in the accumulation unit, the management server (11) predicts environment information at the time preceding by a predetermined time as compare to the current time and judges the content of control to be performed for the operation of the respective devices according tot he environment information as the prediction result. According to the control information for the respective devices as the judgment results, the management server (11) generates announce information and device control information for directly controlling a device (23) and transmits them to a shop (2). A control unit (22) announces the instruction information corresponding to the environment information predicted to the staffs of the shop (2) through a display unit or an audio output (not depicted), so that the staffs control operation of the device (23) according to the device control information.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a store management system, a store control device, a store control method, a management server, a management method, and a program, and more particularly, to a store management system, a store control device, and a store control method capable of efficiently and stably managing each device of a store , administering servers and administering methods and procedures. Background technique [0002] There is an increasing demand that operations of machines installed in nationwide chain stores represented by so-called convenience stores and supermarkets can be uniformly managed by a central management center or the like. [0003] In general, when analyzing the details of the power consumption of stores such as convenience stores and supermarkets, it can be said that air conditioners (so-called air conditioners, hereinafter also referred to as air conditioners), lighting, and refrigerators for food storage each account for Th...

Problems solved by technology

Therefore, depending on how these machines are used, the power consumed by each store will vary greatly, and if a failure occurs, it will have a large impact on the sales of the store.

[0004] However, it is conceivable that there is a contract amount for each upper limit of power consumption, and when the electricity bill exceeds the above upper limit, a circuit breaker may operate to stop the power supply
