Abstract
Currently delivered content data of contents are received and are each able to be output to an output unit. An estimated value for evaluating a posting status of posted information, that is posted on a Web page in association with the content, is computed. Based on the estimated value, it is determined whether or not a switching condition for switching a main content among the contents, that is being output to the output unit, to a sub-content among the contents, that is not being output to the output unit, is satisfied. If it is determined that the switching condition is satisfied, information utilized to switch the content is output to the output unit.
Claims20
A display system comprising:
- a communication unit that receives currently delivered content data of contents which are each able to be output to an output unit;
- an estimated value computation unit that computes an estimated value for evaluating a posting status of posted information that is posted on a Web page in association with the content;
- a determination unit that determines, based on the estimated value, whether or not a switching condition for switching a main content among said contents, that is being output to the output unit, to a sub-content among said contents, that is not being output to the output unit, is satisfied;
- and
- an output control unit that controls, if it is determined that the switching condition is satisfied, the output unit to output information utilized to switch the content.
A display apparatus comprising:
- a communication unit that receives currently delivered content data of contents which are each able to be output to an output unit;
- an estimated value computation unit that computes an estimated value for evaluating a posting status of posted information that is posted on a Web page in association with the content;
- a determination unit that determines, based on the estimated value, whether or not a switching condition for switching a main content among said contents, that is being output to the output unit, to a sub-content among said contents, that is not being output to the output unit, is satisfied;
- and
- an output control unit that controls, if it is determined that the switching condition is satisfied, the output unit to output information utilized to switch the content.
A display method comprising:
- a step that receives currently delivered content data of contents which are each able to be output to an output unit;
- a step that computes an estimated value for evaluating a posting status of posted information that is posted on a Web page in association with the content;
- a step that determines, based on the estimated value, whether or not a switching condition for switching a main content among said contents, that is being output to the output unit, to a sub-content among said contents, that is not being output to the output unit, is satisfied;
- and
- a step that controls, if it is determined that the switching condition is satisfied, the output unit to output information utilized to switch the content.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium which stores a program that makes a computer function as:
- a communication device that receives currently delivered content data of contents which are each able to be output to an output unit;
- an estimated value computation device that computes an estimated value for evaluating a posting status of posted information that is posted on a Web page in association with the content;
- a determination device that determines, based on the estimated value, whether or not a switching condition for switching a main content among said contents, that is being output to the output unit, to a sub-content among said contents, that is not being output to the output unit, is satisfied;
- and
- an output control device that controls, if it is determined that the switching condition is satisfied, the output unit to output information utilized to switch the content.
