Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An information processing apparatus includes a display control section that displays a relation diagram expressing logical relationships between events from an upstream side to a downstream side, displays, in a case where an instruction of folding is performed on a plurality of events selected as folding starting points from among the events, the relation diagram in which events on the downstream side of the plurality of selected events are folded, and displays, in a case where an instruction of expanding is performed on the relation diagram in a folded state, the relation diagram expanded in a state before the folding.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. An information processing apparatus comprising: a processor that displays a relation diagram expressing logical relationships between a plurality of events from an upstream side to a downstream side, displays, in a case where an instruction of folding is performed on a plurality of first events selected as folding starting points from the plurality of events, the relation diagram in which a plurality of second events on the downstream side of the plurality of selected first events are folded, wherein the selection of each of the first events and folding operation on the corresponding second events on the downstream side of each of the plurality of selected first events are performed based on a same instruction, and displays, in a case where an instruction of expanding is performed on the relation diagram in a folded state, the relation diagram in which the second events on the downstream side of the plurality of selected first events are expanded into a state before the instruction of folding is performed. 2. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor displays first identification information corresponding to the plurality of selected first events, and receives an instruction of folding or expanding in accordance with the first identification information. 3. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the first identification information indicates whether the relation diagram is in a folded state or an expanded state. 4. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor displays the relation diagram by folding all events serving as starting points as starting points in a case where an operation of indicating folding all the events serving as the starting points is performed, and expands the relation diagram into the state before the folding in a case where an operation of indicating expanding all the events serving as the starting points is performed on the relation diagram in the folded state. 5. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processor folds and displays the relation diagram by using all events serving as the plurality of starting points as starting points in a case where an operation of indicating folding all is performed, and expands the relation diagram into the state before the folding in a case where an operation of indicating expanding all is performed on the relation diagram in the folded state. 6. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the processor folds and displays the relation diagram by using all events serving as the plurality of starting points as starting points in a case where an operation of indicating folding all is performed, and expands the relation diagram into the state before the folding in a case where an operation of indicating expanding all is performed on the relation diagram in the folded state. 7. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of attributes are set to each of the plurality of events, and the processor is configured to select the plurality of first events from the plurality of events by determining at least one of the attributes corresponding to the first events matches a predetermined criteria. 8. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein a plurality of attributes are set to each of the plurality of events, and the processor is configured to select the plurality of first events from the plurality of events by determining at least one of the attributes corresponding to the first events matches a predetermined criteria. 9. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein a plurality of attributes are set to each of the plurality of events, and the processor is configured to select the plurality of first events from the plurality of events by determining at least one of the attributes corresponding to the first events matches a predetermined criteria. 10. The information processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to register first identification information corresponding to the plurality of selected first events in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 11. The information processing apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the processor is further configured to register the first identification information in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 12. The information processing apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the processor is further configured to register the first identification information in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 13. The information processing apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the processor is further configured to register the first identification information in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 14. The information processing apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the processor is further configured to register the first identification information in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 15. The information processing apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the processor is further configured to register the first identification information in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 16. The information processing apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the processor is further configured to register the first identification information in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 17. The information processing apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the processor is further configured to register the first identification information in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 18. The information processing apparatus according to claim 9 , wherein the processor is further configured to register the first identification information in a storage unit in association with second identification information for identifying state information defining a folded state of the currently displayed relation diagram. 19. The information processing apparatus according to claim 10 , wherein the processor displays the second identification information, reads out the corresponding state information from the storage unit in a case where the second identification information is selected, and reproduces and displays the folded state. 20. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing a computer to: display a relation diagram expressing logic
