Image media data (image data) is registered from the image data input/output device 2-5, for example, as shown in FIG. It may be directly displayed on an image data input/output device (different from the output device 2-5), or it may be temporarily stored in the image data file 2-7 via the image data storage device 2-6 and then further stored in the image data storage device 2-6. The image data may be displayed on the image data input/output device 2-8 via the image data input/output device 2-8.

Video media data (video data) is registered from the video data transmitting device 2-9, for example, as shown in FIG. 2fcl. This video data is stored in the video data display device 2-
12 or directly displayed on the video data storage device 2-10.
The data is temporarily stored in the video data file 2-11 via the video data storage device 2-10 and then displayed on the video data display device 2-12.

Numeric/character media data (numeric/character data) is
For example, as shown in FIG. 2 (dl), the numeric/character data is registered from the numeric/character data input/output device 2-13.This numeric/character data is stored in the database 2-15 via the numeric/character data processing device 2-14. Stored.

The numerical/character data stored in the database 2-15 is converted into numerical/character data via the numerical/character data processing device j2-14.
Displayed on the character data input/output device 2-13.

Because the above-mentioned processing is performed individually for each media, it is impossible to recognize the relationship between data from various media, and even when data from one media is searched, edited, and displayed for decision support, it is difficult to recognize the relationship between data from other media. The media data had to be searched and edited and displayed separately.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

In the conventional decision-making support data display method described above, data registration is managed for each medium, so there is a drawback that a different registration procedure is required for each medium when registering (creating) data.

In addition, since the data necessary for decision support is searched for each medium, if the data necessary for decision support exists in data of various media, similar search conditions can be used for each medium. The disadvantage is that it is necessary to search for data many times to obtain all the data necessary for decision support.

Furthermore, since the data necessary for decision-making support is edited and displayed for each media, it is not possible to comprehensively edit and display data related to multiple media at once.
Acquisition of comprehensive data necessary for decision-making process (k
The disadvantage is that it requires a great deal of effort (obtaining data based on collection display).

In view of the above-mentioned points, an object of the present invention is to refer to data of multiple types of media (data of various media as basic data constituting a multimedia database).
