I will send you. Then, the host computer 5 registers in advance.
Of information with a classification that matches the recorded classification
Picked up and transmitted to each user's terminal 7.
You. In this case, a program incorporated in the host computer 5
The ram is shown in FIG. The program is briefly explained based on FIG.
I will tell. First, in S11, the total number of users is defined as K.
The process proceeds to S12, where N = 1 is defined.
The initial value is set. Next, the process proceeds to S13, where the primary information is set.
Judgment was made as to whether there was a request to subscribe to the selected service
If not, proceed to S16 and check with an information service organization, etc.
It is determined whether information has been transmitted from
It returns to S13. During the loop of S13 to S16
And there is a request to join the primary selection service for information
Is determined as YES by S13, and the process proceeds to S14.
K = K + 1, that is, the process of adding 1 to the total number K of users
Makes sense. Next, the process proceeds to S15, where the information is transmitted from the new subscriber.
Based on the personal information sent, the subscriber (user)
The process of determining and registering the categories of information that you want
After that, the process proceeds to S16. On the other hand, information is transmitted from an information service organization or the like.
If yes, a YES determination is made in S16.
And proceeds to S17, where the user (N) is registered in advance.
Class and transmitted classification do not match.
Is done. (N) of this user (N) is a user number.
At this stage, the value is set to "1" by S12.
You. Therefore, the user (1), that is, the first
Eye user has been transmitted with pre-registered classification
A determination is made whether the classification matches. And match
If so, the process proceeds to S18, and the matched information is transmitted to the user (N).
That is, at this stage, there is no processing for transmitting to the user (1).
After that, the process proceeds to S19. On the other hand, they do not match due to S17
If it is determined that the process of S18 is performed,
Proceed directly to S19. In S19, it is determined whether or not N = K.
Is made. At this stage, N is "1" and K is the current
NO for the total number of users at the point
Then, the process proceeds to S20, where N = N + 1, that is, 1 is added to N.
After the processing is performed, the process proceeds to S17. As a result, the value of N
It becomes “2” and the user (N), that is,
User (2) pre-registered classification and transmitted
A determination is made whether the classification matches, and the second user
A matching determination process is performed for the user. The processing of S17 to S20 is repeated a plurality of times.
Processing is performed, and each time "1" is added to N from S22.
When the value of N matches the value of K, S19
Is determined as YES, and the process returns to S12. The result
As a result, the 1st user to the Kth user,
S17 is not determined for all users in
If they match, the matching information is sent to the user.
Transmission processing is performed. Next, as another search means, a keyword
Search is possible. For example, in the case of user A,
Keys such as "industrial property rights", "inventions" or "fishing"
The keyword is indexed and registered, and the host computer 5
From the large amount of information transmitted to
If there is a match, pick that information
It is transmitted to the terminal 7 of the user A. The key
Word identification is performed by an expert system using artificial intelligence.
The use of programs is significant. In addition, sound such as news
To perform a keyword search on body information, use voice
Recognition technology is required, so-called pattern shown in FIG.
・ Using a speech recognition system based on the matching method
