Information processing apparatus, data acquisition method, and program

A data acquisition method comprising the steps of:

• selecting one or more of at least one link destination which is a result of search based on key information;
• acquiring, before the link destination is selected by user operation, display control data including at least a structural unit in which information relating to a layout of a display screen is written, the display control data existing at the link destination selected in the step of selecting a part of at least one link selection destination;
• analyzing the display control data and extracting structural units included in the display control data before the link destination whose display control data has been acquired prior to the user operation is selected by the user operation;
• generating, before the link destination whose display control data has been acquired prior to the user operation is selected by the user operation, first structured data for display control by mutually linking, except for a structural unit in which information relating to display control involving script processing is written, the structural units including at least the structural unit in which the information relating to a layout of a display screen is written, among the structural units extracted in the step of extracting structural units;
• generating, in a case the link destination whose display control data has been acquired prior to the user operation is selected by the user operation, second structured data for display control by mutually linking the structural units;
• displaying a display screen by using the first structured data generated in the step of generating first structured data;
• and
• redisplaying, upon the generation of the second structured data, the display screen by using the second structured data.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having embodied thereon a program, which when executed by a computer, causes the computer to execute a method, the method comprising:

• selecting one or more of at least one link destination which is a result of search based on key information;
• prefetching, before the link destination is selected by user operation, display control data including at least a structural unit in which information relating to a layout of a display screen is written, the display control data existing at the link destination selected;
• analyzing the display control data and extracting structural units included in the display control data, before the link destination whose display control data has been acquired by the data prefetching is selected by the user operation;
• generating, before the link destination whose display control data has been acquired by the data prefetching is selected by the user operation, first structured data for display control by mutually linking, except for a structural unit in which information relating to display control involving script processing is written, the structural units including at least the structural unit in which the information relating to a layout of a display screen is written, among the structural units extracted by the structure analysis;
• generating, in a case the link destination whose display control data has been acquired by the data prefetching is selected by the user operation, second structured data for display control by mutually linking the structural units;
• and
• displaying a display screen by using the first structured data, and redisplaying, upon the generation of the second structured data, the display screen by using the second structured data.
