Description

System, server, and method for providing collaboration solutions between multiple workers {SYSTEM, SERVER AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING COOPERATION SOLUTION AMONG MULTIPLE WORKERS}

Various embodiments of the present invention relate to a system, server, and method for providing a collaborative solution between multiple workers.

As technology rapidly advances, when one worker carries out a project alone, it takes longer to carry out the project than when multiple workers work together to carry out the project. Problems such as lack of expertise arose.

To overcome these problems, in order to proceed with one high-level project, the project is divided into a number of detailed processes and each divided detailed process is assigned to each team member, enabling efficient and high level of expertise in a faster time. The recent trend is to apply collaborative systems in each field to carry out projects.

For example, in the case of a project related to video production, the project is divided into multiple processes (e.g. modeling, animation, shading, lighting, rendering, etc.), and each process is organized by department and worker of the company performing the project. The project will be carried out in collaboration with a company that takes full responsibility or specializes in each process.

However, when different companies take on multiple unit tasks (processes) and proceed with one project, the pipeline provided by the collaboration solution used by each company must be followed, so between partners with different pipelines There is a problem that collaboration is difficult.

Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 2, a method of providing a collaboration solution between multiple workers provided by the collaboration solution providing server 100 will be described.

Figure 2 is a flowchart of a method of providing a collaboration solution between multiple workers according to another embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 3 is a flowchart of a method for providing a collaboration solution between multiple workers according to another embodiment of the present invention, and Figure 3 shows that in various embodiments, a server providing a collaboration solution collects and stores information about work from a plurality of databases. This is a diagram showing the process of providing information about the work and stored work to a specific worker.

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, in step S110, the collaboration solution providing server 100 collects original data for each of a plurality of works generated by a plurality of workers performing each of a plurality of unit tasks included in one project. It can be stored in the databases (201B, 202B, 203B, 204B).

For example, a plurality of workers perform unit tasks assigned to them using work tools (e.g. video content work tools) pre-installed on their worker terminals 201A, 202A, 203A, and 204A, thereby performing a plurality of tasks. Can create content (e.g. video content).

Thereafter, the collaboration solution providing server 100 may allow a plurality of works generated by each of the plurality of workers to perform tasks assigned to them to be stored in the plurality of databases 201B, 202B, 203B, and 204B. For example, the collaboration solution providing server 100 receives the first work from the worker terminal 201A of the first worker, stores it in the first database 201B, and receives the first work from the worker terminal 202A of the second worker. 2 A work can be provided and stored in the second database 202B. In addition, the collaboration solution providing server 100 receives the third work from the worker terminal 203A of the third worker and stores it in the third database 203B, and receives the fourth work from the worker terminal 204A of the fourth worker. Water can be provided and stored in the fourth database 204B. However, it is not limited to this.

That is, the original data of the work created as each of the plurality of workers performs the work may be stored in each of the plurality of databases 201B, 202B, 203B, and 204B.

In various embodiments, the collaboration solution providing server 100 performs updates on each of the plurality of works, such as modifying or deleting part of each of the plurality of works already created by a plurality of workers, or adding new contents. In this case, the new version of the work created by updating can be automatically stored in each of the plurality of databases (201B, 202B, 203B, and 204B). At this time, the new version of the work may be stored in a location adjacent to the location where the existing work is stored, but is not limited to this.

In step S120, the collaborative solution providing server 100 collects metadata for a plurality of works stored in each of the plurality of databases 201B, 202B, 203B, and 204B, and You can collect information about where the original data for each of multiple works is stored. For example, the collaborative solution providing server 100 collects metadata about the first work from the first database 201B and information about the location where the first work is stored on the first database 201B, Metadata about the second work and information about the location where the second work is stored on the second database 202B may be collected from the second database 202B. In addition, the collaborative solution providing server 100 collects metadata about the third work from the third database 203B and information about the location where the third work is stored on the third database 203B, and collects the fourth work from the third database 203B. Metadata about the fourth work and information about the location where the fourth work is stored on the fourth database 204B may be collected from the database 204B. However, it is not limited to this.

In other words, the original data of the work created by the work of each of the plurality of workers is allocated to each of the plurality of workers and stored on the created database, and the cooperation solution providing server 100 stores the metadata of the work rather than the original data of each work. Since only the data and storage location (database internal path) are retrieved and stored, there is an advantage in that data management is easy.

In particular, when new versions increase as each of a plurality of workers continuously creates and updates their work, the overall data capacity increases accordingly, because the cooperation solution providing server 100 retrieves only the metadata of the work. , there is an advantage that there is no need to provide an unnecessarily large storage device.

In addition, the collaborative solution providing server 100 collects information about the storage location of the work, and when a worker requests direct access to the work in the future, it provides information about the storage location to enable direct access. By doing so, there is an advantage in that each company (or worker) does not need to follow separate regulations as long as they do not move or delete the work to which the link is provided.

In step S130, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may obtain a request from the first worker to provide a second work created by the second worker.

In step S140, the collaborative solution providing server 100 provides at least one of metadata for the second work and information about the location where the original data of the second work is stored according to the request for provision of the second work obtained in step S130. can be provided to the first worker.

In various embodiments, one project is a video production project, and each of the first work, the second work, the third work, and the fourth work are created by performing a plurality of unit tasks included in one project. When it is video content, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may provide metadata including a thumbnail and basic information of the second work when requested to provide information about the second work from the first worker. there is.

Here, the basic information of the second work includes review status information, task status information, entity information, progress stage information, task information, version information, and load authority information of the second work. It may include at least one, but is not limited thereto. In other words, even if workers do not directly check the work itself, they can relatively easily check the progress or status of the work through metadata.

In addition, when the collaborative solution providing server 100 receives a request from the first worker to provide the second work itself (or a request for direct access to the second work), the collaborative solution provision server 100 posts the second work on the second database 202B. A link can be provided to access the location where the original water data is stored. Through this, workers can directly access the work and directly edit, delete, or add to the work as needed. However, it is not limited to this.

In various embodiments, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may select metadata for the second work and information about the location where the original data of the second work is stored according to a request for provision of the second work obtained from the first worker. At least one is provided to the first worker, wherein the first worker loads the original data of the second work from the second database or the first worker loads the original data of the second work stored in the second database according to the authority previously granted to the first worker. At least part of the data can be modified or deleted, or the first operator can add new content to the original data of the second work stored in the second database.

Here, permissions may include load permissions, edit and delete permissions, and permissions to add new content, and may be granted in advance by the person in charge of the project during the process of registering workers to perform each of the multiple unit tasks included in the project. It may be, but is not limited to this.

In various embodiments, the collaborative solution providing server 100 receives a request from a worker to provide first information, which is specific information about the project, rather than a request to provide information about a specific work or a request to access the specific work itself. , Combining metadata for at least one work among a plurality of works for one project, analyzing metadata for the combined at least one work to extract first information, and extracting the extracted first information can be provided to the first worker.

For example, when the collaborative solution providing server 100 receives a request from a worker to provide information on the progress status of the entire project, the metadata of the first work, the second work, and the third work included in one project By combining, the progress of each work can be determined, information indicating the progress of the entire project can be extracted according to the judged progress of each work, and the extracted information can be provided to the worker.

In other words, the cooperative solution providing server 100 not only provides information about a specific work according to the worker's request, but also combines information about two or more works to derive and provide information desired by the worker, thereby satisfying the worker's needs. It has the advantage of being able to provide optimal information tailored to the needs. Hereinafter, with reference to FIG. 4, the asset management system (AMS) service provided by the cooperative solution providing server 100 will be described.

Figure 4 is a flowchart of a method of providing a service for managing a plurality of works and each of the sources used for each of the plurality of works as one individual asset, in various embodiments.

Referring to FIG. 4, in step S210, the collaborative solution providing server 100 converts each of a plurality of works created as a plurality of workers perform a task and one or more sources used in each of the plurality of works into content. , multiple contents (e.g. assets) corresponding to each element can be created.

In step S220, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may tag each of the plurality of contents generated in step S210.

In various embodiments, the collaborative solution providing server 100 directly receives tags for the work created by the worker and one or more sources used in each work created by the plurality of workers, and directly inputs the tag You can perform tagging on each of a plurality of contents using . For example, the collaborative solution providing server 100 receives tags for the first worker's work and one or more sources used in the work from the first worker, and receives the second worker's work and the tag from the second worker. Tags for one or more sources used in the work can be input, and each content can be tagged using the input tags.

In various embodiments, the collaborative solution providing server 100 selects one or more recommended tags for each of a plurality of contents, receives one recommendation tag among one or more recommendation tags selected from a plurality of workers, and selects one or more recommended tags for each of the plurality of contents. Tagging can be performed for each of a plurality of contents using one recommendation tag. At this time, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may provide the worker with a recommended tag list containing information about one or more recommended tags through the UI, and the worker selects one of the one or more recommended tags included in the recommended tag list. You can choose.

In various embodiments, the collaborative solution providing server 100 analyzes each of the plurality of contents using a content analysis model, extracts tags for each of the plurality of contents, and uses the extracted tags to identify each of the plurality of contents. Tagging can be performed automatically. That is, the cooperative solution providing server 100 analyzes each of the plurality of contents using a content analysis model, selects one or more tags corresponding to each of the plurality of contents, and determines how appropriate the selected one or more tags are for each of the plurality of contents. The content is scored, and the tag with the highest score can be selected to tag each of the plurality of contents.

Here, the content analysis model is an artificial intelligence model that is supervised using learning data labeling tags for each of a plurality of contents, and may be a model that uses specific content as input data and outputs tags suitable for specific content. However, it is not limited to this.

In various embodiments, the cooperative solution providing server 100 is based on automatically tagging each of a plurality of contents using a content analysis model, and determines whether the automatically selected tag is suitable for each of the plurality of contents. If it is determined to be unsuitable (e.g., if the suitability score is less than the standard score), multiple contents can be selected either manually, where tags are input directly from the worker, or semi-automatically, where information on recommended tags is provided and selected by the worker. Tagging can be performed for each, and the content analysis model can be continuously trained using the tagging results themselves as learning data. Afterwards, the reliability of the content analysis model is improved through continuous learning, and from the point when the tags automatically selected through the content analysis model are judged to be appropriate (e.g., when the suitability score exceeds the standard score), the content analysis model is used to automatically Tagging can be done with .

In various embodiments, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may tag each of the plurality of contents according to the method described above and then classify each of the plurality of contents into categories according to the tags. For example, when each of the plurality of contents is video content, the plurality of contents can be classified into 2D, 3D, people, animals, creatures, etc. according to their respective tags.

In step S230, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may receive one or more search words input from the first worker. For example, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may provide a UI for searching a plurality of contents, and may receive one or more search words through a search word input bar included in the UI. However, it is not limited to this.

In step S240, the collaborative solution providing server 100 searches for content having tags corresponding to each of the one or more search words based on one or more search words entered in step S230 and provides information about the searched content to the first worker. can do. For example, if the search word entered in step S230 is “person,” at least one content having the tag “person” may be selected from among the plurality of contents and provided to the first worker.

In various embodiments, when two or more search words are input from the first worker, the collaborative solution providing server 100 selects content including all tags corresponding to each of the two or more search words and sends information about the selected content to the first worker. can be provided to.

At this time, the collaborative solution providing server 100 receives two search words from the first worker, but if content containing both tags corresponding to each of the two search words is not searched, the content corresponding to the search words is not searched. It outputs a guidance message to guide you, or selects the content that has the higher priority search word among the two search terms (e.g., a search word entered first or a search word with a higher priority according to criteria set in advance by the operator) as a tag, and selects the first search term. It can be provided to workers. However, it is not limited to this.

In various embodiments, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may include properties of a project currently in progress by the first worker, properties of a unit task assigned to the first worker within the project (e.g., type of task, etc.), and the properties of the unit task that the first worker is currently working on. Based on information about the work currently being worked on, content predicted to be needed by the first worker can be automatically searched and recommended.

In step S250, the cooperative solution providing server 100 may provide a payment process for the specific content when obtaining a use request (sale request or rental request) for specific content among one or more contents provided in step S240 from the first worker. In response to completion of payment for the specific content from the first worker, the first worker may be provided with the right to use the specific content.

Here, the right to use may include, but is not limited to, at least one of the right to load specific content, the right to edit, the right to delete, and the right to add new content.

In various embodiments, the cooperation solution providing server 100 converts each of the work of each of the plurality of workers and one or more sources used in the work into content as an asset of the worker, and registers the content from each of the plurality of workers. You can set the scope of usage rights. For example, when the first worker, the original creator of the first content, grants only the right to add new content to the content, the cooperative solution providing server 100 performs an operation in which other workers who purchase the content add new content to the content. You can only perform this and prevent the content from being arbitrarily modified or deleted.

In various embodiments, the collaborative solution providing server 100 may provide a predetermined reward to the second worker who created the specific content in response to the completion of payment for the specific content from the first worker. For example, in response to the completion of payment for specific content from the first worker, the cooperative solution providing server 100 generates specific content as a predetermined reward for at least a portion of the payment amount according to a preset ratio. A certain reward can be provided to the worker.

In various embodiments, the collaboration solution providing server 100 may be configured to create a new work by using specific content purchased by the first worker (e.g., by modifying part of the specific content or adding new content). (If a content-based new work is created) You can turn the created new work into content, tag the new work into content, and classify the tagged new work into categories to share it with other workers. .

At this time, when payment for the new work converted into content from the third worker is completed, the collaboration solution providing server 100 provides the third worker with the right to use the new work, and provides the third worker with the right to use the new work, and 1 A certain reward can be provided to the worker.

At this time, since the new work created by the first worker is based on the work of the second worker, a certain reward can also be provided to the second worker who created the specific content used in the new work.
