Information processing apparatus, information processing method and computer readable medium

1. An information processing apparatus comprising:

a display unit that displays a screen including at least one operation target item constituting a target of an operation;

a recording unit that records pieces of information depicting operations performed by a user on operation target items displayed on the display unit as pieces of operation history information; and

a screen reproducing unit reproduces the screen displayed while the operation was performed by the user, on the basis of the piece of operation history information recorded in the recording unit; and

a reproduction screen processing unit that performs an operation for realizing a form in which operation target items on which operations were performed are distinguished from operation target items on which operations were not performed by providing a graphic which is circumscribed about the operation target in the screen reproduced by the screen reproducing unit, wherein

the screen reproduced by the screen reproducing unit is displayed with the operation target item which was designated to implement a function of the operation by the user while the operation was performed, and

the at least one operation target item is displayed having not been designated to implement the function of the operation and being different from other operation target items.

2. The information processing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

the screen reproducing unit selectively extracts the pieces of information depicting the operations satisfying a predetermined condition from the pieces of operation history information recorded in the recording unit, and reproduces the screens displayed at the points in time at which the operations depicted by the respective pieces of the extracted operation history information.

3. The information processing apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , wherein

the recording unit records a series of operations performed by the user, and the screen reproducing unit selectively extracts a piece of operation history information, which satisfies a condition that the operation depicted by the piece of operation history information is not cancelled by an operation following the operation, from pieces of operation history information depicting the series of operations performed by the user.

4. The information processing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising:

a reproduction screen processing unit that performs an operation for realizing a form in which operation target items on which operations were performed can be distinguished from operation target items on which operations are still not performed in a screen reproduced by the screen reproducing unit.

5. The information processing apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , wherein

the recording unit records a specific process identifier each time a processing is performed as a result of an operation by the user so that the specific process identifier is included in a piece of information depicting the operation, and

the predetermined condition comprises a condition that operation history information relates to a process identifier designated by the user.

6. The information processing apparatus as claimed in claim 2 , wherein

the predetermined condition comprises a condition relating to one of the screens on which the operations were performed and the contents of the operations.

7. The information processing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 wherein

the recording unit records an operation performed by the user in a case where the screen of the display unit is changed from an initial screen displayed when the information processing apparatus is started to operate to a screen accepting an operation by the user, and

the screen reproducing unit reproduces a screen displayed at a point in time at which the operation was performed by the user in a case where the screen of the display unit is changed from an initial screen displayed when the information processing apparatus is started to operate to a screen accepting an operation by the user.

8. The information processing apparatus as claimed in claim 1 , wherein

the recording unit records an operation performed by the user in a case where a plurality of screens accepting an operation by the user exist and screens to be displayed are changed between the plurality of screens, and

the screen reproducing unit reproduces a screen displayed at a point in time at which the operation was performed by the user in a case where the screens to be displayed are changed.

9. An information processing method comprising:

displaying a screen that includes at least one operation target item constituting a target of an operation;

recording pieces of information that depict operations performed by a user on displayed operation target items as pieces of operation history information; and

reproducing the screen displayed while the operation was performed by the user, on the basis of the piece of operation history information recorded; and

providing a graphic circumscribed about the operation target in the reproduced screen so as to distinguish operation target items on which operations were performed from operation target items on which operations were not performed, wherein

the reproduced screen is displayed with the operation target item which was designated to implement a function of the operation by the user while the operation was performed, and

the at least one operation target item is displayed having not been designated to implement the function of the operation and being different from other operation target items.

10. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program causing, a computer to execute a process for performing an information processing, the process comprising:

displaying a screen that includes at least one operation target item constituting a target of an operation;

recording pieces of information that depict operations performed by a user on displayed operation target items as pieces of operation history information; and

reproducing the screen displayed while the operation was performed by the user, on the basis of the piece of operation history information recorded; and

providing a graphic circumscribed about the operation target in the reproduced screen so as to distinguish operation target items on which operations were performed from operation target items on which operations were not performed, wherein

the reproduced screen is displayed with the operation target item which was designated to implement a function of the operation by the user while the operation was performed, and

the at least one operation target item is displayed having not been designated to implement the function of the operation and being different from other operation target items.
