Abstract:
An information management method collects log information of one or more home electrical apparatuses corresponding to service providers. Display screen data is generated which indicates a status of the log information. The display screen data includes groups of information which each contain information on an apparatus, a service provider corresponding to the apparatus, and log information output from the apparatus. Provision of the log information of each group is individually selectable. The display screen data is provided via a network to a display terminal that performs access to a server device. Information is received from the display terminal, which indicates that selection on whether or not provision of the log information is performed. Provision of the log information is not performed on the selected group when a determination is made that refusal of provision of the log information on the selected group is performed.
Abstract:
A method for recommending household goods and clothing information to a first user of household goods and clothing, and an apparatus thereof. The method includes: transmitting a request for recommended household goods and clothing for the first user, to be displayed on the first user's display; receiving the purchase history of one or more of household goods and clothing by a plurality of users of the one or more of the household goods and clothing; extracting a second user, from among the plurality of users, who has purchased a household good or clothing with a design or function similar to a household good or clothing purchased by the first user; transmitting a recommendation for the first user of a household good or clothing purchased by the second user; and displaying on the display of the first user, the recommended household good or clothing purchased by the second user.
Abstract:
A data providing method is carried out by a computer (460) built in a data processing system (1) which is designed to collect log information from electronic devices through a network (30) and provide services based on that log information for authenticated users. The data providing method includes: receiving an air conditioner (102a, 102b)'s log information through the network; generating display data by reference to pieces of information which are included in the air conditioner's log information and which indicate (i) a preset temperature of the air conditioner, (ii) an outdoor temperature outside a living space in which the air conditioner is installed, and (iii) an indoor temperature of the living space in which the air conditioner is installed, the display data representing a trend of change of a turnaround time that indicates how long it takes from when the air conditioner starts operating until the indoor temperature reaches the preset temperature; and providing the display data for an authenticated user's display terminal (130a, 130b).

Abstract:
Address information of a mail to be transmitted by a mail communication function is extracted from the mail to be transmitted; a transmission time of the mail to be transmitted is extracted from a portable information terminal; and judgment is made as to whether the address information matches predetermined address information and whether the transmission time belongs to a predetermined time zone. When the address information matches the predetermined address information, and the address information belongs to the predetermined time zone, an activation time at which a household appliance is to be activated is determined on the basis of the transmission time, and a control command for activating the household appliance at the activation time is transmitted to a network.

Abstract:
When it is determined that a position of the display terminal is within a range of a prescribed distance from the house and when it is determined that the log information and the information indicating the operational state of the one electric home appliance are not consistent with each other, the server provides the display terminal with information on a possibility of a malfunction of the one electric home appliance while the position of the display terminal is still within the range of the prescribed distance from the house.
