Second Specific Example
FIG. 13 is an explanatory diagram illustrating a second specific example of a linkage operation of the elements in the system illustrated in FIG. 1. Referring to FIG. 13, in this example, the acceleration sensor 100a and the button 100d are used among the elements 100. For example, the acceleration sensor 100a is mounted on the door of a bathroom and the button 100d is mounted on a lavatory. In the illustrated example, software 603a detecting that the door is opened based on acceleration and software 603b recording supplied data are further used. The link 601 oriented from the acceleration sensor 100a to the software 603b via the software 603a means that “the software 603b records the fact that it is determined based on a value detected by the acceleration sensor 100a that the door is opened.” The link 601 oriented from the button 100d to the software 603b means that the software 603b records the fact that a signal is output from the button 100d.”
