With this invention, a new software production method has been already advocated (One is International Disclosure Number W097/16784. The other is International Patent Application Number PCT/JP97/01492). This is what is called LYEE (Governmental Methodology for Software Providence).
The theorem of LYEE is as follows: "It can establish the one and only logical function that can synchronize the software requirement into a computer space. By designating the logical function by T0, the computer space can be expressed by TOn (nzl). TO is called Scenario Function." .

AMENDED SHEET

Hereupon, the Scenario Function is:
TO =~0 ({gyp {LE, i, W02} E} a 4'P { YD, i, W03 ~ LD, i, W03 } d ~P {YE, i, W04 ~ LE, i, W04) E} e) Here, ~P {LE, i, W02} E = W02 palette ~'P {YD, i, W03 ~ LD, i, W03} d = W03 palette ~'P {YE, i, W04 ~ LE, i, W04} E = W04 palette E: an independent variable called definitive's identifier consisting of event information like screen, message, etc.
e: an independent variable of kinds of E existing in the developing system.
D: an independent variable called identifier of definitive's like screen, message, file, etc. (E is contained in D).
d: an independent variable of kinds of D existing in the developing system (e is contained in d).
i: an independent variable called an identifier of words (data items) contained in E and D.

~p {}: Called a Palette function and a function to assemble a set of Duplication element YD, i, Wn and Autopoiesis vector LD, i, Wn~ A set of the Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and data area, D, I, Wn, is called a palette.
W02, W03, W04: Meaning domain identifiers (The meaning domain occurrence order is fixed as W04-~W02->W03).
~0: Called a Pallet Chain Function and a function to chain palettes (The palette chaining order is fixed as W04-~W02-~
W03 ) .
The Duplication element, Autopoiesis venctor and palette function shown in Figs. 4 to 7 have only variables of "D, I", if parts of "Data Autopoiesis" in Autopoiesis vector shown in Figs. 5 and 7 and "process route" in Autopoiesis vector shown in Fig. 6 are excluded. Reversibly speaking, if the parts of "Data Autopoiesis", "process route", and "D, I" are only defined, Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and palette function can be determined, that is, a program having that Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and palette function can be determined.
Also, Pallet Chain Function is absolutely the one and only program. This invention notes this point. That is, Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and palette function, with the "Data Autopoiesis" part, the "process route" part and "D, I" are yet undefined, are prepared in advance, as well as providing, in advance, a relationship between the definition table and the undefined parts of Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector, and palette function, and this facility consequently enables to automatically create software simply by inputting the "Data Autopoiesis" part, the "process route" part and "D, I" into, for example, the definition table.

t Best embodiment of this invention Hereunder, in order to describe this invention in detail, an explanation is made in accordance with the attached drawings.
First, an explanation is made for the composition of software based on the LYEE theory.
Fig. 1 is a diagram approximately showing the composition of software based on the LYEE theory. Software based on the LYEE theory always takes a structure as shown in Fig. 1, that is, a structure where each Palette 104, in which each Tense Control vector 103 is assembled into each Palette Function 102, causes a chaining (or making Unit-Team) by Pallet Chain Function 101.
Pallet Chain Function 101, Palette Function 102 and Tense Control vector 103 are respectively regulated in uniformity up to the step 1 level, based on the aforementioned LYEE theory.
In Tense Control Vector 103, W04 Tense Control vector, W02 Tense Control Vector and W03 Tense Control vector are mounted. Palette 104, in which W04 Tense Control vector is assembled into Palette Function 102, is called W04 Palette:
Palette 104, in which W02 Tense Control vector is assembled into Palette Function 102, is called W02 Palette. Palette 104, in which W03 Tense Control-vector is assembled into Function 102, is called W03 Palette. In each Palette, a data area is built in, as shown in Fig. 1, which is identified by an identifier of the corresponding word holding word data per every word. The data area of W04 Palette is called W04 data area, the data area of W02 Palette is called W02 data area, and the data area of W03 Palette is called W03 data area.
In W04 Tense Control vector, there are Duplication element and Autopoiesis vector. These are called W04 Duplication element and W04 Autopoiesis vector, respectively.
In W02 Tense Control vector, there is Autopoiesis vector.
This is called W02 Autopoiesis vector. In W03 Tense Control vector, there are Duplication element and Autopoiesis vector.
These are called W03 Duplication element and W03 Autopoiesis vector, respectively.
W04 Duplication element and W04 Autopoiesis vector are program elements to implement display screen editing. W02 Autopoiesis vector is a program element to determine the process route. W03 Duplication element and W03 Autopoiesis vector are program elements to implement data editing for file update.
These Tense Control vectors 103 are created against all words existing on the Screen 105 (including display, files or vouchers) which is necessary to intervene data used by the software to be produced. Speaking of the example of Fig.
1, if words, for example, such as 'password number', 'client name', balance of deposit', 'message', 'execute' and 'end' exist on the Screen 105, Tense Control vectors against these respective words are created. Further to add, among Tense Control vectors, W04 Duplication element, W04 Autopoiesis vector and W02 Autopoiesis vector are what to implement AMENDED SHEET

i screen edit, respectively and to determine the process route, so they are defined per every screen, but W03 Duplication element and W03 Autopoiesis vector are what to implement data edit for file update, so they are defined as one piece of Palette formed by binding all definitives within the system. For example, as for the word 'password number', W04 Duplication element, W04 Autopoiesis vector and W02 Autopoiesis vector must be respectively defined separately per every screen, even if the same word. And, words respectively defined separately can be defined individually as W03 Autopoiesis vector as they are.
To each of these Tense Control vectors, a meaning domain identifier, a definitive identifier and a word identifier are attached.
Fig. 2 is a flow chart showing a structural paradigm of Pallet Chain Function 101.
The structure of the Pallet Chain Function 101 is always the same in any software. Accordingly, a Palette 104 to be created can be assembled into the Pallet Chain Function 101 already prepared in advance.
That is, determine a SEND information at first (Step 201). The SEND information means display data on Screen 105 which is displayed on a computer.
For example, speaking by referring to a process route diagram (or Homogeneity Map, whose details will be described later) shown in Fig. 11, in the menu screen GSMENU (GSMENU
is a definitive identifier of the menu screen), if 'Balance Inquiry' is selected (meaning, for example, an operation of 'Menu No=n+ENTER' in the menu screen GSMENU), it will determine Screen GSOI08 (GSOI08 is a definitive identifier of the balance inquiry screen) of 'Balance Inquiry' as a SEND information.
When an information closing a system is included in the SEND information (an operation of 'END' in the menu screen GSMENU) (Step 202), the system will be closed (Step 203). To close a system means to return to OS, for example.
Next, make judgment on whether or not to continue within the WT (walk-through) unit (Step 204). This relates to an exceptional process. That is, the WT unit is, for example, what is formed in one unit by binding an Entry Screen used for entering data and a Reference Screen used for referring to data in advance of the entry of the data.
If not continued within the WT unit, The whole Palette is set with a new WT unit (Step 207).
Next, execute the corresponding W04 Palette (Step 208).
That is, to execute W04 Palette in which Tense Control vectors 103 of all W04s, i.e., W04 Duplication element and W04 Autopoiesis vector, has been set in the Palette Function 102. With this, the data value of the screen to be displayed will be determined.
Then, execute a SEND function (Step 209). That is, to SEND a screen with data values, etc. set as a screen data to be displayed on a computer.
Thereafter, execute a RECEIVE function (Step 210). That is, to RECEIVE a screen data with data values, etc. entered on the screen of a computer.

And, make judgment on whether the RECEIVE data is normal or not (Step 211), and if it is abnormal, do over again from the beginning. That is, check whether illegal data, etc. exists or not.
Next, execute the corresponding W02 Palette (Step 212).
That is, to execute W02 Palette in which a Tense Control vector of all W02s, i.e., W02 Autopoiesis vector, has been set in the Palette Function 102. With this, data, etc.
entered on the screen of a computer will be determined.
Next, determine a process route (Step 213, 214). The process route is judged by the Process Route Flag (R= 1 - 5) on the W02 Autopoiesis vector.
When the process route flag is R=1, the corresponding W03 Palette (W03 Palette not accompanying an entry to file) will be executed (Step 215). And, it returns to the initial process (Step 201). The process route R=1 is a process route only implementing the execution of data process.
When the process route flag is R=2, the corresponding W03 Palette (W03 Palette accompanying an entry to file) will be executed (Step 216). And, it returns to the initial process (Step 201). The process route R=2~is a process route to implement the execution of data process and the entry to file.
When the process route flag is R= 3 - 5, it returns, let alone, to the initial process (Step 201).
Here, the process route R=3 is a process route, let alone, returning to W04 Palette (either the same or different one) .

The process route R=4 is a process to enter data into file as it is.
The process route R=5 is a process to fetch data from file as it is.
Fig. 3 is a flow chart showing a structural paradigm of Palette Function.
It is necessary to create a Palette Function like this for respective Tense Control vector of W02, W03 and W04.
First, make the data area "Empty" (Step 301). That is, for example, with a Palette Function of W04, make "Empty" a data area with an identifier attached to per every word existing in the corresponding screen. However, the Palette Function on W02 only is not made "Empty." And, execute each Duplication element and Autopoiesis vector in sequence (in the order of Duplication element group and Autopoiesis vector group) (Step 302, 303).
Thereafter, when a palette restart flag has been set (Step 304), reset a flag (Step 305) and re-execute each Duplication element and Autopoiesis vector in sequence (in the order of Duplication element group and Autopoiesis vector group) (Step 302, 303). On the other hand, when a palette restart flag has not been set, File is closed (Step 306) and a process is ended. Here, "File" is what to 'memorize' a data value self-decided by the Tense Control vector of W03, and it is established for every word. Further to add, with the reproduction of data memorized in File, original files for reproduction are different per every word, so it is done in the subroutine of the Self-Decision part of Autopoiesis vector of every word. And, Open and Read of File is executed inside the subroutine, and Close is executed in one lot by the Palette Function.
Palette Restart is judged by the restart flag on each Autopoiesis vector.
Fig. 4 is a flow chart showing a structural paradigm of Duplication element of Tense Control vector. By designating Duplication element as Y (D, i, Wn), make judgment on whether the data area is Empty or not of the D, i, Wn-1 (D
indicates a screen identifier and Wn-1 indicates W02 if, for example, Duplication element is W02) (Step 401).
When Empty, end Duplication element (D, i, Wn).
When not Empty, shift data in the data area of D, i, Wn-1 into the data area of D, i, Wn and end it (Step 402).
Fig. 5 is a flow chart showing a structural paradigm of Autopoiesis vector W03 of Tense Control vector. By designating Autopoiesis vector as L (D, i, W03), make judgment at first on whether the data area (D, i, W03) is Empty or not (Step 501).
When data already exists in the data area (D, i, W03) and it is not Empty, end Autopoiesis vector (D, i, W03).
When no data exists in the data area (D, i, W03) and it is Empty, Self-Decision of data is done (Step 502). The self-Decision means, for example, to shift data of data area (D, i, W02) into data area (D, i, W03) when data is an input attribute, and, for example, to perform Self-Decision of data from data of the same word of File when data is an output attribute, and, for example, to perform Self-Decision of data by operating from data of the other word when the data is likewise an output attribute.
Next, make judgment on whether the data area (D, i, W03) is Empty or not (Step 503).
When data becomes existing in the data area (D, i, W03), it is acknowledged that the Self-Decision has been established and it ends Autopoiesis vector L ((D, i, W03).
When no data exists in the data area (D, i, W03), add "1" to the restart counter of the D, i, W03 (Step 505).
When the restart is possible, set the restart flag (D, i, W03) (Step 506) .
When the restart is not possible, set the refusal flag (D, i, W03) (Step 507).
Fig. 6 is a flow chart showing a structural paradigm of Autopoiesis vector W02 of Tense Control vector. By designating Autopoiesis vector as L, make judgment, at first, on whether the data area (D, i, W02) is Empty or not (Step 601 ) .
When no data exists in the data area (D, i, W02) and it is Empty, that is, when data input was not done from the screen, end Autopoiesis vector L (D, i, W02).
When data already exists in the data area (D, i, W03) and it is not Empty, set a process route (Step 602). The setting of the process route means to set the aforementioned process route flag (R = 1 - 5).
Next, make judgment on whether a process route has been accepted or not (Step 603).
When the process route has been accepted, end Autopoiesis vector L (D, i, W02).
When the process route has not been accepted, add "1"
to the restart counter of the D, i, W02 (Step 604).
Next, make judgment whether a value of the restart counter is below the value fixed in advance, that is, whether the restart is possible or not (Step 605).
When the restart is possible, set the restart flag (D, i, W02) (Step 606).
When the restart is not possible, set the refusal flag (D, i, W02) (Step 607) .
Fig. 7 is a flow chart showing a structural paradigm of Autopoiesis vector W04 of Tense Control vector. By designating Autopoiesis vector as L (D, i, W04), make judgment, at first, on whether the data area (D, i, W04) is Empty or not (Step 701).
When no data exists in the data area (D, i, W04) and it is Empty, perform the Self-Decision of data (Step 702). The self-Decision means, for example, to shift data of data area (D, i, W02) into data area (D, i, W04) when data is an input attribute, and, for example, to perform Self-Decision of data from data of the same word of File when data is an output attribute, and, for example, to perform Self-Decision of data by operating from data of the other word when the data is likewise an output attribute.
Next, make judgment on whether the data area (D, i, W04) is Empty or not (Step 703).
When data becomes existing in the data area (D, i, W04), it is acknowledged that the Self-Decision has been established and it ends Autopoiesis vector L ((D, i, W04).
When no data exists in the data area (D, i, W03) and it is "Empty," add "1" to the restart counter of the D, i, W04 (Step 704).
Next, make judgment whether a value of the restart counter is below the value fixed in advance, that is, whether the restart is possible or not (Step 705).
When the restart is possible, set the restart flag (D, i, W04) (Step 706) .
When the restart is not possible, set the refusal flag (D, i, W04) (Step 707). On the other hand, with Step 701, if data already exists and it is not "Empty," make judgment on whether the W02 refusal flag of the corresponding word or the W03 refusal flag of the corresponding word has been set or not (Step 708) .
When the W02 refusal flag of the corresponding word or the W03 refusal flag of the corresponding word has been set, reset a refusal flag, and set a refusal code as well. (Step 709) .
Further to add, the refusal code is used, for example as shown in Fig. 10, in order to indicate in the data area of 'Message' to the effect that an erroneous number has been entered into the data area 1001 of 'password number'. When a refusal code has been set in the W04 Autopoiesis vector of the 'password number', the effect is displayed by the 'Self-Decision of data' of the W04 Autopoiesis vector of 'Message'.
This invention is to automatically create programs having the Palette Function shown in Fig. 3 and with the Duplication element and the Autopoiesis vector shown in Fig.
4 to Fig. 7. The Pallet Chain Function can always be structured by the same program, thus programs of the Palette Function and of the Duplication element and the Autopoiesis vector can be created automatically, which means that software to be aimed can be created automatically. And, since any of the Palette Function, and the Duplication element and the Autopoiesis vector has realized logic only by the address of the data area which can be identified by an identifier of their respective words, it-means that software for all fields, including business software, games software. etc., can be created automatically.
Fig. 8 is a block diagram showing a composition of the automatic creation scheme of software of this invention.
This automatic creation scheme of software can be realized on a computer by software.
In Fig. 8, 801 is a program having Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and Palette Function shown in Fig. 4 to Fig. 7, and includes the 'data Self-Decision' part, the 'process route' part, and the first memory part to memorize, in advance, a program with 'D, i' yet undefined, 802 includes the second memory part to memorize, in advance, a program having the Pallet Chain Function, and 803 includes the 'data Self-Decision' part, the 'process route' part and the input part to enter 'D, i'.
Also, 804 includes the 'data Self-Decision' part which was entered with 803 and the allocating part to allocate the 'process route' part and the 'D, i' into the prescribed position of a program of Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and Palette Function which were memorized into the first memory part 801, and 805 includes the 'data Self-Decision' part, the 'process route' part and the assembly part to build in a program of Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and Palette Function, with 'D, i' defined, into the Pallet Chain Function, and 806 includes an output part to output software which software has been assembled into.
Next, by using Fig. 9, the explanation is made on the procedure to create software by using the scheme structured in this way.
First, specify screens and vouchers used by an aimed software (Step 901) and set identifiers (definitive identifiers) to respective screens (Step 902). Fig. 10 is an example of screens determined. In Fig. 10's screen, set unique identifiers optional within the range of the system, for example, an definitive identifier 'GSOI08'. Also, a blank column in Fig. 10 indicates a data field.
Next, create a process route and determine a File (Step 903). The process route diagram (or called Homogeneity Map) is created based on screens and vouchers which were determined. The process route diagram can be created either humanly or mechanically. The process route diagram is what connects palettes (indicated in boxes) corresponding to respective screens and vouchers, by using lines. Lines mean Pallet Chain Function. If screens and vouchers have been determined, the between-palette connections can be AMENDED SHEET

determined inevitably. Fig. 11 shows an example of process route diagrams.
In the process route diagram, when, for example, a certain screen, (Menu Screen GSMENU, as an example) has been determined, the next necessary process contents can be inevitably determined from the screen's process contents ("Menu NO=n+ENTER", and the screen's control word of "END"), (including the following processes, for example, a display of "Balance Inquiry Screen GSOI08" from "Menu Screen GSMENU", and, from "Balance Inquiry Screen GSOI08", a readout of data (balance data) from File FSHINFIL by executing the control word "EXECUTE" and a return to the original screen against a password number error or a return to the Menu Screen GSMENU
by executing a control word "END", therefore lines have been connected between palettes in accordance with the above mentioned process contents.
In Fig. 11, the "W04" under the "GSMENU" is a W04 palette with a screen identifier GSMENU attached to, and by this W04 palette a menu screen GSMENU is formed.
The "W02" under the "GSMEMU" is a W02 palette with a screen identifier GSMENU attached to, and by this W02 palette a process route is determined.
The "W04" under the "GSOI08" is a W04 palette with a screen identifier GSOI08 attached to, and by this W04 palette data is formed to display in the data field of the balance inquiry screen GSOI08.
The "W02" under the "GSOI08" is a W02 palette with a screen identifier GSOI08 attached to, and by this W04 palette a process route is determined.
The "W03" is one piece of W03 in the system, and by this W03 palette, a deposit balance is calculated. The calculated deposit balance is displayed in the balance inquiry screen GSOI08 after the execution of Duplication element and Autopoiesis vector of W04 palette.
Based on a created process route diagram, a necessary File is determined. That is, the necessary File can be inevitably determined by the process route diagram (for example, in Fig. 11, "FSHINFIL". The "FSHINFIL" means a definitive identifier of the "Client Ledger File", and "FMOTOFIL" means a definitive identifier of the "Deposit Ledger File"). Files determined are specified in the process route diagram.
Further to add, the "IO-W04-RK1-SEC" is a subroutine identifier on the W04 palette which leads data from the "Client Ledger File". The "IO-W04-RD1-SEC" is a subroutine identifier on the W04 palette which leads data from the "Deposit Ledger File". The "IO-W02-RK1-SEC" is a subroutine identifier on the W02 palette which leads data from the "Client Ledger File". The "IO-W03-RK1-SEC" is a subroutine identifier on the W03 palette which leads data from the "Client Ledger File". The "IO-W03-RD1-SEC" is a subroutine identifier on the W03 palette which leads data from the "Deposit Ledger File". The above mentioned applies to Fig. 1 in the same way.
Next, collect words from screens, vouchers an files, which were specified (Step 904) and assign identifiers to AMENDED SHEET

respective words (Step 905). For example, collect words from the screen of Fig. 10, such as "password number", "client name", "deposit balance", "message", "Execute", "End", and assign, for example, "PASSNO1", "CLNAME", "YOKNZAN", "MSSGCD1", "PF25KEY", "PF3KEY" respectively to "password number", "client name", "deposit balance", "message", "Execute", "End".
Fig. 12 is a diagram showing an example of definition tables which are entered from the input part 803. This definition table is displayed, for example, on the computer screen and each data is entered therefrom.
In the definition table, there are an input column of screen identifiers (ID), an input column of screen names and an input column of word designations. Also, there are input items for each word designation, such as word identifier (ID), whether data is an input or output attribute (I/O), number of columns of data, whether a data attribute is numeric or letter (attribute) type, file to use (as above-mentioned, the reproduction of memorized data occurs in different reproduction original files for every word, so it is done by the subroutine of the Self-Decision part of Autopoiesis vector of every word. From this reason, files to use are defined for every word.), process route (R-NO), function key number (F-KEY) corresponding to process route-determinant words, next screen identifier, word definition (data Self-Decision). With the word-definition (data Self-Decision) input item, when data is an input attribute, it can be determined automatically by the LYEE

principle, so nothing is defined. When data is an output attribute, the only following is defined: for example, data is Self-Decision from the data of the same word in File, or by using calculation equation for the ",Self-Decision by the operation of data from the other word", for example, "Deposit Balance" (= File's deposit balance + Screen's business amount). More concretely, an example of the "Self-Decision from the data of the same word in File" is such as "Client Name" and "Deposit Balance".
Also, an example of the "Self-Decision by the operation of data from other word" is "Deposit Balance" (= File's deposit balance + Screen's business amount).
With the input item of process route, set the above-mentioned process route (R = 1 - 5).
The "Inducing Data" meant by this invention corresponds to data induced by the above-mentioned word definition (data Self-Decision).
Also, the "process route" meant by this invention corresponds to the above-mentioned process route (R-NO), function key number (F-KEY) and the next screen identifier.
Then, execute the Self-Decision of software by the burying parts of 804 and 805 (Step 907).
The movement of this Self-Decision is explained based on the flowchart of Fig. 13.
That is, when screen identifiers, word identifiers, etc., i.e., the 'data Self-Decision' part meant by this invention, the 'process route' part and 'D, i' are entered (Step 1301) and when the Self-Decision is executed (Step AMENDED SHEET

1302), the 'data Self-Decision' part', the 'process route' and the 'D, i' read in undefined Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and Palette Function from the allocating part 801 (Step 1303), and the 'data Self-Decision' part, the 'process route' part and 'D, i', set in the definition table, are respectively allocated into the prescribed locations of the undefined Duplication element, Autopoiesis vector and Palette Function (Step 1304).
This point is explained hereunder more concretely.
A program of the undefined W03 Autopoiesis vector is as follows.
