To this end, the user group providing server 120 includes a plurality of group servers (Group X server, Group Y server, etc.). Of course, the group servers may be physically classified and included in the user group providing server 120 or may be classified and included in a program in one server.

In this case, the user group service provided by the user group providing server 120 may include various types of mobile eco services such as providing a community space for a closed user group, a push notification service such as an announcement, and providing related group data. May be included.

Meanwhile, the user terminal 200 refers to a general smart mobile terminal, and receives and stores a skin file from the service providing server 110. In this case, the user terminal 200 accesses the skin providing server 110 and receives and stores any one of skin files provided by the skin providing server 110 by user selection, and stores the skin file of the terminal. Apply as wallpaper.

When the user executes the service application in the user terminal 200, the group code included in the skin file stored as the background screen is extracted and transmitted to the service providing server.

Hereinafter, a service providing method of a mobile eco system according to a user characteristic according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

7 is a flowchart illustrating a service providing method of a mobile ecosystem according to the present invention.

As shown in the drawing, the service providing method of the mobile eco-system according to the user characteristics according to the present invention is to provide a social network service to a closed group by using the stored skin file and providing the skin file according to the present invention to the user terminal. The process of providing is divided.

First, the process of providing the skin file to the user terminal 200 will be described. The user terminal 200 accesses the skin providing server 110 of the service providing server 100 and requests the provision of the skin file (S110). ).

Thereafter, the skin providing server 110 searches for a skin file desired by the user terminal 200 and transmits the skin file to the user terminal 200 (S120 and S130).

The user terminal 200 receiving the requested skin file stores the received skin file and applies the stored skin file as a background screen (S150).

In this case, the skin file includes a group code in addition to the general image file data. Since the group code is described above, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

Next, the process of providing the social network service to the closed group using the stored skin file will be described.

First, a user executes a service application (hereinafter, referred to as an “application”) installed in the user terminal 200 (S210).

When the application is executed, the control unit of the user terminal 200 recognizes the group code from the applied skin file (S220).

Thereafter, the user terminal 200 requests access to a user group providing server of the service providing server 100 (S230). In this case, the access request message transmitted to the service providing server 100 includes a group code extracted from the skin file.

The user group providing server 120 receiving the access request identifies the group to which the user terminal 200 requesting the access belongs from the group code included in the access request message, and accesses the group server (S240).

Thereafter, the group server to which the user terminal 200 is connected provides the service of the group to the connected user terminal 200 (S250).

In this case, the group service provided includes various services such as providing a community and various information and advertisements among users belonging to a closed group.

The rights of the present invention are not limited to the embodiments described above, but are defined by the claims, and those skilled in the art can make various modifications and adaptations within the scope of the claims. It is self-evident.

For example, in the above description, for example, the user's application execution request is connected to the user group providing server, but the user terminal accesses the user group providing server periodically or in accordance with the state of the terminal, such as a push notification service It is also possible to provide.

The present invention relates to a method for setting a closed group in consideration of the characteristics of a user and providing an ecosystem of their own. According to the present invention, not only the participation and withdrawal of a group network (social network) is easy, but also additional restrictions It is possible to provide a closed group social network reflecting the user's current interests, since the openness is good but the accumulation of networks that do not participate after joining does not occur.
