WORK CONTROL DEVICE FOR LAYOUT SCANNER

摘要

PURPOSE:To always instruct the optimum advancement of operation in page make-up processing by forecasting page make-up advancement from layout information and outputting the guide of proper procedure. CONSTITUTION:When layout information is inputted to a layout scanner controller 2, the controller 2 is started. A schedule computing means 4 forecasts and computes an access schedule necessary for trimming layout processing based on the contents stored in a layout information storing means 9. The forecasted and computed results are successively stored in a schedule file memory 15 to be a history information storing means. A deciding means 5 compares the forecasted and computed result with a real operating state to decide the advancing state of processing. A correcting means 6 corrects the storage in the memory 15 based on the decided result. A working information part 16 constituting a working information output means collectively outputs working information in a prescribed period from an output scanner 11. In said constitution, the forecasting of processing is compared with its result, the forecasting of operation is corrected and an optimum advancement process can be instructed.
