Abstract
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having an arrangement program according to the present application thereon causes a computer to execute an acquiring process and an arranging process. The acquiring process acquires browsing mode information that indicates a mode of browsing content. The arranging process arranges, in a mode based on the browsing mode information acquired at the acquiring process, at least one element that is used to judge whether the content has actually been browsed by a user in a content area in which the content is provided.
Claims8
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having an arrangement program stored thereon causes a computer to execute a process comprising:
- acquiring browsing mode information that indicates a mode of browsing content;
- arranging, in the mode based on the browsing mode information acquired at the acquiring, at least one element including a plurality of elements, that is used to judge whether the content has actually been browsed by a user in a content area in which the content is provided, wherein the arranging includes:
- dividing, based on the browsing mode information, the content area into a plurality of areas and arranging each of the plurality of elements in a center of each of the plurality of areas for detection of viewable state, wherein the dividing involves dividing the content area into the plurality of areas based on a ratio of width to height of the content area;
- if a number of the plurality of areas in a vertical direction is an even number, one of the at least one element is arranged in a center of the content area;
- and
- if the number of the plurality of areas in the vertical direction is an odd number, the at least one element is not arranged in the center of the content area, wherein a middle area of the plurality of areas in the vertical direction serves as an element for judging;
- judging whether the at least one element arranged at the arranging has been displayed at a position at which browsing is available for the user;
- and
- transmitting, based on the judgement obtained at the judging, display state information related to a display state of the content, wherein the transmitting includes transmitting, when the judgement satisfies a predetermined condition that is a condition in which a ratio of the at least one element that has been displayed at the position at which browsing is available for the user to the at least one element exceeds a threshold, the information indicating that the content has actually been browsed by the user.
6 more elements
An arrangement device comprising:
- an acquiring unit that acquires browsing mode information that indicates a mode of browsing content;
- an arranging unit that arranges, in the mode based on the browsing mode information acquired by the acquiring unit, at least one element including a plurality of elements, that is used to judge whether the content has actually been browsed by a user in a content area in which the content is provided, wherein the arranging includes:
- dividing, based on the browsing mode information, the content area into a plurality of areas and arranging each of the plurality of elements in a center of each of the plurality of areas for detection of viewable state, wherein the dividing involves dividing the content area into the plurality of areas based on a ratio of width to height of the content area;
- if a number of the plurality of areas in a vertical direction is an even number, one of the at least one element is arranged in a center of the content area;
- and
- if the number of the plurality of areas in the vertical direction is an odd number, the at least one element is not arranged in the center of the content area, wherein a middle area of the plurality of areas in the vertical direction serves as an element for judging;
- judging whether the at least one element arranged at the arranging has been displayed at a position at which browsing is available for the user;
- and
- transmitting, based on the judgement obtained at the judging, display state information related to a display state of the content, wherein the transmitting includes transmitting, when the judgement satisfies a predetermined condition that is a condition in which a ratio of the at least one element that has been displayed at the position at which browsing is available for the user to the at least one element exceeds a threshold, the information indicating that the content has actually been browsed by the user.
6 more elements
An arrangement method performed by a computer, the arrangement method comprising:
- acquiring browsing mode information that indicates a mode of browsing content;
- arranging, in the mode based on the browsing mode information acquired at the acquiring, at least one element including a plurality of elements, that is used to judge whether the content has actually been browsed by a user in a content area in which the content is provided, wherein the arranging includes:
- dividing, based on the browsing mode information, the content area into a plurality of areas and arranging each of the plurality of elements in a center of each of the plurality of areas for detection of viewable state, wherein the dividing involves dividing the content area into the plurality of areas based on a ratio of width to height of the content area;
- if a number of the plurality of areas in a vertical direction is an even number, one of the at least one element is arranged in a center of the content area;
- and
- if the number of the plurality of areas in the vertical direction is an odd number, the at least one element is not arranged in the center of the content area, wherein a middle area of the plurality of areas in the vertical direction serves as an element for judging;
- judging whether the at least one element arranged at the arranging has been displayed at a position at which browsing is available for the user;
- and
- transmitting, based on the judgement obtained at the judging, display state information related to a display state of the content, wherein the transmitting includes transmitting, when the judgement satisfies a predetermined condition that is a condition in which a ratio of the at least one element that has been displayed at the position at which browsing is available for the user to the at least one element exceeds a threshold, the information indicating that the content has actually been browsed by the user.
