Description

The utility model relates to the field of digital data processing and transmission and can be used as a software package with a dynamic organization of providing roaming users with services, reference and advertising information.

A known system comprising terminals (telephones) connected to a telecommunication network and having a processor and a memory unit, a unit for dividing information into a set of attributes, a search unit for a first record, a unit for finding a first record, an assignment unit for a given first record, a search unit for a second record, a finding unit the second record, the assignment unit of the second record of a numerical value, the optimization blocks and the telephone call direction block [RU, 2099895, C1, cl. H04M 1/66, 3/38, 3/42, 1997].

A disadvantage of the known technical solution is the relatively narrow functionality, since the device allows switching information flows, but does not allow users to provide roaming services, reference and advertising information, taking into account the geography and time of the request, as well as the history of preferences.

Also known is an information processing system comprising an information processing device including identification information elements, identification information output means, comparison means, selective reception means, and also first and second data processing means with corresponding connections [RU, 2236703, C2, G06F 19/00 September 20, 2004].

A disadvantage of the known technical solution is the relatively narrow functionality, since the device allows

to carry out the switching of information flows, but does not allow users to provide roaming services, reference and advertising information, taking into account the geography and time of the request, as well as the history of preferences.

One of the known is also a system containing at least one device for providing identification codes, at least one device for generating requests and receiving responses to requests, at least one actuating device for performing a service providing operation to a user connected to the device generating requests and receiving responses to requests, a central control device including a requesting device and generating responses to requests associated with the first and second the mouths of the central control device for connecting to communication channels, a device for generating service identification codes connected to a device for receiving requests and generating responses to requests, a memory device for storing identification codes of goods or services connected to a device for receiving requests and generating answers to requests and with a device generating identification codes, wherein said at least one device for providing identification codes is connected by a communication channel to the first a port of the central control device, and the at least one device for generating requests and receiving responses to requests is connected by a communication channel to which a port of the central control device [RU, 2162245, C1, G06F 19/00, 2000].

In addition, in this system, the device for generating requests and receiving responses is made in the form of a personal computer connected to the second port of the central control device via a computer network.

The disadvantage of the closest technical solution is the relatively narrow functionality, since the system

allows you to switch and display information flows on a personal computer screen, but does not allow users to provide roaming services, reference and advertising information, taking into account the geography and time of the request, as well as the history of preferences.

Closest to the technical nature of the proposed system is a system comprising executive display devices, a management server, an information storage server, a collector server, the first input-output of which is connected to the inputs and outputs of information sources, and the second input-output is connected to the input-output a management server, a transformation server, the first input-output of which is connected to the third input-output of the collector server, and the second input-output is connected to the first input-output of the information storage server, the subscription server, the first input-output of which is connected to the fourth input-output of the collector server, and the synchronization server, the first input-output of which is connected to the second input-output of the information storage server, the second input-output is connected to the second input-output of the subscription server, and the third input-output - connected to the input-outputs of the actuators display [RU, 57032, U1, G06F 17/00, 09/27/2006].

The drawback of the closest technical solution is the relatively narrow functionality, since the system allows switching and displaying information flows on a personal computer screen, but does not allow users to provide roaming services, reference and advertising information, taking into account the geography and time of the request, as well as the history of preferences.

Since the system contains elements characterized at the functional level, and the described form of their implementation involves the use of a programmable (customizable) multifunctional tool, the information below confirms the possibility of such a tool performing a specific function prescribed for it as part of this device.

As a source of 9 content - a server for customers distributing advertising and information. As the management server 2, the information storage server 3, and the interactive advertising content visualization system 10, standard FTP servers can be used, containing files available for download over the Internet and supporting, in particular, the FTP protocol, which allows you to transfer files of any format and volume [Internet Basics, www.rabotaweb.com]. They can be made in the form of personal computers connected to the Internet, technically implemented, for example, in the form of servers HP Proliant DL 380G4 Xeon-3.2GHz / 800Mhz / 1MB, 1GB (2 * 512MB) DDR2. Below, information is presented that confirms the ability to perform by such means the specific function prescribed to him as part of this device, in particular, information that reveals the algorithm for their operation.

Multiservice reference information system operates as follows.

A multiservice help and information system is a help and information system with a dynamic organization that offers the user application roaming services (search for relevant services, the dynamic formation of a “composite service”, payment for services from any free sub-account) and the provision of reference and advertising information taking into account geography and time query as well as preference history.

An innovation in the system is the ability to build multi-service systems integrating information and reference, content services from any number of independent providers (owners

services, content) with a flexible system of mutual settlements based on clearing schemes. This approach allows you to create synthesized services based on the most relevant data available from their holders.

Server components are implemented as J2EE modules, functionally accessible via the web services interface. Initialization, basic configuration and diagnostics of server components is carried out through a web interface provided either directly by components or portlets located on a single portal. The component integration tool is a specialized application that provides the user, in accordance with his role in the security system, with the ability to establish connections between components, configure them, and monitor display actuators 1 through a message and billing system. The main purpose of the specialized application is to provide ergonomic user configuration of services installed and initialized by the administrator of system 8 of roaming applications with dynamic organization. Thus, a specialized application is the link between the catalog of executive devices 1 display, the catalog of the system 8 roaming applications with dynamic organization, billing system and interactive system 10 for visualizing advertising content.

Each terminal of the display actuators 1 operates with client applications of individual components installed on them, which provide services of the corresponding server components. So, for example, the interactive system 10 visualization of advertising content implements services for displaying content on a given schedule. The terminals of the actuators 1 display organized in the Intranet / Internet; client applications are connected to the server components of the complex through an intermediate layer through a secure SSL channel. Middleware layer

delivers control messages and related data from the server and serves as a link in the monitoring chain. So, for example, the intermediate layer of the advertising content visualization system 10 provides delivery of the schedule to the terminals of the display executive devices 1 with the schedule modification in accordance with the group settings of the terminals. The middleware components are organized into a tree hierarchy controlled through the interface provided by the corresponding server component.

The architectural flexibility of the system is provided by supporting various integration styles at various levels - from the communication level (an intermediate layer of three-tier architecture is used for communication with applications, which makes it possible to combine various application-oriented adapters) and the data storage level, which makes it possible to combine storage approaches / retrieving structured information to the level of business logic and visual presentation. Unified user interaction through a single management client and portlets operating within the global portal. New elements are included in the architecture using the “create for integration” method. At the level of application logic, integration is reduced to registering new services in system 8 of application roaming with dynamic organization and setting the possibilities of interconnection and roaming of services with new ones.

The synthesis of new services is carried out in the system based on data on the user's previous priorities in relation to information about his location in the system 5 for positioning and monitoring of moving objects. The source of data on coordinate-related alternatives is an intelligent repository of 4 spatio-temporal coordinates of geographical objects and related metadata, acting as a virtual model of the world with replicas of objects and their behavioral models. The decision to form a synthetic service

is adopted by an expert system based on a neural network in accordance with the applications installed in system 8 of roaming with the dynamic organization of “complementarity” relations between services. So, for example, when providing the information search service for the query “where to dine with a given amount of bills in a radius of a given distance and not get into traffic jams”, the service providers are a service that provides information about traffic jams, a restaurant guide, a GPS receiver, and actually a multi-service information desk system combining these services.

A comprehensive service (for example, a certificate) is created based on the request context and billing rules for the distribution of payment for a complex service between the providers of these services. Thus, when requesting a composite service, the customer is issued an invoice consisting of subaccounts of providers, and in order to provide the service, the consumer confirms their authenticity and agreement with the invoice amount.

A multi-service reference and information system can act as an electronic trading platform (marketplace). Each service with the ability to access through the marketplace is in relation to "complementarity" with the system service "e-commerce". Content can be placed directly in the marketplace. It can also dynamically establish a connection with a web service of a third-party provider using the UDDI registry. The user can be subscribed to the use of various options for the design of "e-commerce", including through wap. A multiservice help and information system allows you to provide services for the issuance of statistics of individual users' queries selected according to specified criteria and by establishing the complementarity of these services in order to establish a user profile according to parameters of interest - and possibly offer the user another service (for example, to advertise a complementary product in the context of a market place) .

The logic of the multiservice help and information system is based on fuzzy processing of the data provided. Data presented in the formats of the WSDL, SOAP, and ebXML standards is organized into a single standard, for example XML. Each service is assigned several types that correspond to consumer requests that this service meets, and if possible, the decomposition of a composite service into several separate services (using SOA methods). So, for example, the service “visualization of the optimal route taking into account traffic jams” can be divided into the following: “visualization of the route”, “search for the route”, “information about traffic jams” and “visualization of traffic jams”.

The model of building relationships of "complementarity" is based on the "path" - bundles representing various branching routes — for example, if a Type A service is provided, it is possible to provide additional (complementary) services B, C, G. The system provides automatic selection of optimal options and in the case of a large gap between the best option and the others (i.e., a gap that exceeds the default threshold of significance or specified by the user) offers the optimum as the default option, otherwise the user a choice is made of options that are no more than optimal in terms of complementarity by more than a predetermined threshold value. The degree of complementarity of services A and B is determined by convolution of the following criteria:

1) there are categories A1 and B1, which include A and B, respectively, such that between A1 and B1 complementarity is established;

2) the frequency of use of B and B1 by a given user and users of related interests (the adjacency of interests is defined as the correlation coefficient between the distribution of frequency of use).

The operations of setting data structures related to the parameters for using the service:

0) the establishment of mandatory parameters for each service, for example, "cost", "owner", "age restrictions", etc .;

1) “set the input parameters”, “set the output parameters” - an enumeration of the types of parameters with their descriptions in natural language;

2) “create a category”, “edit a category”, “delete a category” - operations on working with categories (a class of services having common properties and parameters); each category has its own entry and exit parameters; there may be general parameters of the “age limit” type;

3) “create an adapter”, “edit the adapter”, “remove the adapter” - operations for administering software modules used to convert data between the input / output parameters of the service and the categories to which it relates (in practice, conversion can be performed, for example, on based on XSLT technology); the ability to call an arbitrary service registered in the system means that there must be a set of adapters that can provide services of any category;

4) “create a link between categories” - an operation to establish correspondence between the output parameters of one category and the input of another; some financial information such as discounts and bonuses can be stored here;

5) “create a sequence”, “modify a sequence”, “delete a sequence”, “prohibit a sequence” - the operation of creating / editing / deleting / prohibiting a valid route for performing services;

6) “register usage statistics” - create a “user-sequence” link and a “user-service” link;

7) “select a service” - based on the registered statistics of use, offer a chain of services based on a personal history of user preferences and user preferences with similar interests (determined according to statistics on the use of services and sequences).

Thus, in contrast to the known devices, the proposed device has wider functional capabilities, since it allows not only to convert information stream formats from various sources to user formats and deliver information to executive information display devices, but also to provide users with roaming services, help and advertising information, taking into account the geography and time of the request, as well as the history of preferences.
