Description

Web page access system using real name and method thereof {SYSTEM FOR ACC ESING WEB PAGE USING REAL NAMES AND METHOD THEREOF}

The present invention relates to a system for accessing a web page using a real name and a method thereof. More specifically, in order to access a specific web page on the Internet, the web can be accessed using a real name composed of Korean or other foreign languages in addition to English. The present invention relates to a web page access system and a method for easily accessing a page.

The Internet is not just a collection of several computers, but a huge network of networks of different kinds of computers connected to each other. Each of the computers connected to the Internet has a physical address, IP address is assigned.

However, these physical addresses are made up of four groups of numbers that do not exceed 255 (for example, 134.78.238.99), so it is very difficult for users to remember these strings, and it is difficult to remember a particular computer connected to the Internet. It is very cumbersome for users to enter these IP addresses every time they want to access the network.

Therefore, in general, instead of accessing each computer by using a physical address directly, a one-to-one correspondence with a combination of easy-to-remember IP addresses is provided. The method of making the connection is used. The combination of characters used in place of the IP address is called a domain name.

On the other hand, recently used webhosting service (webhosting service), that is a service that allows a person who does not have a real host computer corresponding to the domain name, but wants to register a domain name registered using their own host computer When a domain name is registered using a provider that provides a domain name, one or more domain names may correspond to the IP address.

As described above, the domain name indicates an address on the Internet of a computer connected to the Internet, and is generally composed of an identifier indicating a characteristic or geographical location of the computer. For example, "ABC.co.kr" becomes the actual domain name among the "james@ABC.co.kr" addresses of e-mails, and the URL "uniform resource location" (IP address system) is " "ABC.co.kr" becomes the actual domain name among the "http://www.ABC.co.kr". In addition, for example, in "" http // www.internic.net / index.html "," internic.net "is a domain name, and" index.html "is a URL indicating an address of various information provided from a computer connected to the Internet. Is the file name containing the directory where the information is stored.

Therefore, in order to use the domain name instead of each computer's IP address, a separate device that performs the function of matching the IP address and the domain name of each computer is required. It is associated with a computer system that performs a domain name server (domain name server, also known as "DNS").

In general, when a client requests IP address resolution for a domain name of the computer, for example, "def.co.kr", to access a particular computer on the Internet, the domain name server manages the IP address. The IP address corresponding to the domain name inputted to the registrar's server is inquired, and the IP address provided from the registrar's server is returned to the client, whereby the client is connected to the computer having the corresponding IP address.

As described above, in order to connect to a particular computer on the Internet, you must know the domain name. However, in general, because the domain name is composed of a combination of English characters made according to a certain rule, the people of Korea, Japan, and other non-English speaking countries, such as China has a disadvantage that is relatively difficult to memorize the domain name compared to the English speaking countries.

In addition, when a directory or file name in which information is stored for accessing a specific web page is required, the directory file name for accessing a specific page may be changed according to a person operating a computer, and may be formed of a combination of English letters such as a domain name.

Therefore, it is difficult to memorize a domain name and a file name for accessing an Internet web page, and it takes a long time to input a domain name and a file name.

Therefore, the technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is a web page that allows the user to easily access the web page by using a real name that is actually called a web page to be accessed even without inputting a URL such as a domain name of a web page on the Internet. An object of the present invention is to provide a connection system and a method thereof.

The present invention also relates to a web page access system and a method for allowing a user to receive a web page access service using a real name through a plurality of sites.

Here, the web page represents a server that provides all Internet-based services such as e-mail, file transfer protocol (FTP), telnet, etc. in addition to the world wide web (WWW).

Thus, "access word" includes both "English domain name" and "real name" as a domain name. And in the embodiment of the present invention, "real name" represents a real name, such as a company name, a business name, or a service mark, but is not limited thereto. It is called the Internet address, including the IP address and URL of a particular web page on the Internet.

1 illustrates a structure of a web page access system using a real name according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, in the web page access system using a real name according to an embodiment of the present invention, the client 10 and the client 10 use the real name to connect to the Internet (including a future network). To the main processing device 30 for connecting to a specific web page on the web and the sub processing devices 41 to 4n for cooperating with the main processing device 30 to provide a connection service using the real name to the client 10. Is done.

As the client 10, a communication device capable of connecting to the main processing unit 30 or the sub processing units 41 to 4n via the Internet 20 is used. For example, a computer, a mobile communication terminal, or a TV that can be connected to the Internet is used. Communication devices such as this may be used. The client 10 provides a connection word corresponding to the web page to be connected to the sub processing apparatuses 41 to 4n or the main processing apparatus 30.

The main processing device 30 is a service-oriented site that provides a connection brokerage service for connecting a client 10 who wants to access a specific web page on the Internet 20 to the web page using an English domain name or real name. In particular, the client 10, which cooperates with a plurality of sub-processing devices 41 to 4n and works via the sub-processing devices 41 to 4n, connects to a specific web page.

To this end, the main processing unit 30 is a database module 31 that stores a plurality of information necessary for the web page access service, such as a plurality of information about the plurality of sites registered as affiliates, Internet address information corresponding to the real name And a processing module for connecting the client 10 to be connected via the sub-processing devices 41 to 4n or the client 10 to be directly connected to a specific web page based on the information stored in the database module 31 ( 32).

As shown in FIG. 1, the database module 31 includes an affiliate site database 311, a real name database 312, a connection information database 313, and a cost management information database 314. do.

The affiliate company database 311 stores a plurality of pieces of information about a site for cooperating with the main processing device 30 and UPMU to provide a web page connection service using a real name to the client 10. For example, a company name, an account number, an e-mail address, and a location information URL (uniform resource location) on the Internet of the sub-processing apparatuses 41 to 4n are stored for each member code assigned to the business cooperation site.

In addition, the affiliated site information database 311 may store information of a site requesting a connection service using a real name. For example, information about a Samsung electronic site that requests to be accessed using a real name of "Samsung Electronics" may be stored.

Here, for convenience of explanation, the sites requesting such a connection service are referred to as service request sites, and the sites that cooperate with a main processing device 30 to provide a connection service to a client are referred to as business cooperation sites.

The real name database 312 stores at least one or more real names corresponding to all IP addresses on the Internet 20, and URL information is stored corresponding to each real name. For example, a real name of "netpia" is stored corresponding to an IP address of "210.103.175.66", and URL information of "netpia.net" is stored corresponding to "netpia."

The connection information database 313 stores connection processing information upon completion of a job of connecting the client 10 to a specific web page using a real name.

The connection processing information includes information such as a connection word for requesting an IP address, the number of connections thereof, and the total number of connection requests for the IP address by the subprocessing units 41 to 4n of the business cooperation site that requested the IP address. In addition, the service request site information corresponding to the access word and the information of the client 10 requesting the web page access may be included.

The cost management information database 314 includes a fee to be charged for providing a web page access service using a real name for a certain period of time for each service request site, and a brokerage fee to be provided to the sub-processing devices 41 to 4n of the business cooperation site. Information such as data is stored.

Based on the information stored in the databases 311 to 314, the IP address corresponding to the real name is provided to the subprocessing units 41 to 4n so that the subprocessing units 41 to 4n provide the client 10 with real information. The processing module 32 for providing a web page access service using a name includes a site operation server 321, a real name server 322, a web server 323, and a cost calculation server 324.

The site operation server 321 is a sub processing unit 41 to 4n connected through the Internet 20 to provide a home page on which various menus such as site introduction and membership registration are posted, thereby accessing a web page using a real name. Register as an affiliate that can provide services.

The real name server 322 corresponds to the sub processing apparatuses 41 to 4n based on the data stored in the real name database 312 when the connection word input from the sub processing apparatuses 41 to 4n is a real name. Provide an IP address. In addition, when a connection word is directly input from the client 10, the controller determines whether the connection word is a real name or an English domain name. In the case of the real name, the IP is transmitted to the client 10 based on the data stored in the real name database 312. Provide an address.

The web server 323 performs a web function that allows the client 10 or the sub-processing units 41 to 4n to access the Internet 20. In particular, the web server 323 may be configured to have a real value different from the IP address corresponding to the input connection word. When one or more names are matched, that is, when the corresponding IP address is not real IP, the client 10 connects to the web page according to the URL information corresponding to the access word.

In addition, when the connection word is not stored in the real name database 312, the web server 323 retrieves data of a plurality of servers on the Internet 20 and collects information of a web page providing information including the connection word. A search engine (not shown).

The cost calculation server 324 calculates a fee to be charged to the service request site based on the connection processing information stored in the connection information database 313, and further, to the sub processing apparatuses 41 to 4n according to the connection processing information. Calculate the mediation fee to provide. Here, the cost calculation server 324 charges a fee for a service amount for a predetermined period of time or charges a fee according to the number of times a web page access service is provided to the service request site for a predetermined time. In particular, fees are charged for the frequently used keywords and general noun words (for example, computers) among the connected words according to the frequency of use.

The sub processing apparatuses 41 to 4n cooperate with a main processing apparatus 30 having a structure as described above to connect a web page using the real name to the client 10 without establishing a separate real name database. As a business alliance site that provides a service, a general web server 411 and a name server 412 for real name processing may be provided, such as the sub-processor 42 shown in FIG. 1. Likewise, only the ordinary web server 421 may be provided.

The operation of the web page access system using the real name according to the embodiment of the present invention having such a structure will be described in detail.

Here, the sub-processing device which cooperates with the main processing device 30 as a server that provides an IP address verification service by executing an Internet connection configuration program or the like before the client 10 runs a browser for accessing the Internet ( A case where the name server 411 of 41 is set will be described as an example. In this case, the IP address value of a commonly used English domain name server (not shown) is backed up in advance, and then returned to the end of the Internet connection configuration program of the client 10 so that it can be used for basic use of the client 10. It is desirable that no change occurs.

2A and 2B illustrate an operation of a web page access system using a real name according to an embodiment of the present invention in order.

As shown in FIG. 2A, when a user inputs a connection word in a connection word input window on the browser after the user 10 runs a web browser or an e-mail program for Internet connection, the input connection word is a sub-processing device ( 41 is provided to the name server 412 (S100).

The name server 412 of the sub processor 41 determines whether the connection word provided from the client 10 is an English domain name or a real name (S110). For example, if the input connection word includes an identifier "." Such as "netpia.net", it is determined that the input connection word is an English domain name, and the input connection word is an English domain name server (not shown). To be provided to be processed (S120). The method of determining whether a connection word is an English domain name or a real name is not limited to this.

In operation S110, when it is determined that the input connection word is a real name, the name server 412 provides the input connection word to the main processing device 30 to request a corresponding IP address (S130).

When the real name server 322 of the main processing device 30 is input from the sub processing device 41 of the business cooperation site, the real name server 322 searches for the real name database 312 based on the entered connection word and corresponds to the corresponding name. Find the IP address (S140).

When the input connection word is stored in the real name database 312, the real name server 322 determines whether an IP address corresponding to the connection word is real IP (S150 to S160). In the case of a real IP address, that is, no other real name corresponds to the IP address corresponding to the input connection real name, the retrieved IP address is provided to the sub-processing device 41, and the connection information database ( In step 313, the access processing information is stored, so that the web page access service is performed through the sub processing apparatus 41 (S170).

When the name server 412 of the sub processing apparatus 41 is provided with the IP address corresponding to the access word input from the client 10 from the main processing apparatus 30, the name server 412 provides the client 10 with the provided IP address. 10 allows access to a web page having the corresponding IP address (S180 to S190).

On the other hand, if the real IP address is not a real IP address in step S160, that is, when at least one other real name corresponds to the IP address corresponding to the input connection word, the URL corresponding to the web server 323 corresponding to the connection word. The client 10 connects to the web page according to the information (S200). Also in this case, the connection information of the sub processing apparatus 41 is stored in the connection information database 313 (S210).

However, in step S150, when the connection word provided from the sub-processing device 41 is not stored in the real name database 312, as shown in the accompanying FIG. 2B, the web server 323 has its own search engine. In operation S220, the server collects information including a corresponding access word from a plurality of servers connected to the Internet 20, and connects the client 10 to an information search result page (S220). Also in this case, the connection information of the sub processing apparatus 41 is stored in the connection information database 313 so that the web page access service can be known later through the sub processing apparatus 41 ( S230).

For example, when the connection word is "Netpia," information of a web page providing information including the word "Netpia" is collected from all servers on the Internet 20, and a user searches a search result such as a web page. HTML is provided for viewing on the client to provide to the client (10). Accordingly, when the user clicks on specific information indicating a web page to be accessed from the search results, the client 10 is connected to the web page (S240).

As described above, after the web page connection service of the client 10 is performed through the plurality of sub-processing devices including the sub-processing device 41, if a predetermined period has elapsed, the cost calculation server 324 sends the connection information data. Based on the connection processing information stored in the base 313, a fee to be charged to the service request site is calculated (S250 to S260).

Here, the cost calculation server 324 charges a fee for a certain amount as a fee for providing a service for a predetermined period or calculates a service providing frequency according to the number of accesses included in the access processing information. In addition, the fee may be charged differently by calculating the number of connections for each connection word.

Next, the cost calculation server 324 based on the connection processing information stored in the connection information database 313, the client according to the number of connections made for each sub-processing device 41 to 4n, that is, for each business cooperation site. The mediation fee for providing the web page access service using the real name is calculated and provided (S270 to S280).

Unlike the above-described embodiment, if the client 10 provides the sub processing unit 42 without a name server, the web server 421 of the sub processing unit 42 corresponds to the web page to be accessed. In other words, a separate connection word input window for inputting a real name, that is, a connection word is provided. Accordingly, when the client 10 inputs a connection word that is a real name such as "Netpia" into the connection word input window, the web server 421 The input connection word is provided to the main processing device 30 to request a corresponding IP address.

Subsequently, the operation performed in the main processing unit 30 is the same as the above-described embodiment, except that the real name server 322 of the main processing unit 30 has an IP corresponding to the connection word provided from the sub processing unit 42. The address is provided directly to the client 10. However, it is not limited thereto.

In addition, while the above-described embodiment describes providing a web page access service using a real name to a client connecting through the sub-processing device, the same applies to a client directly accessing the main processing device without going through the sub-processing device. It can provide connection service.

The web page access system using the real name according to the embodiment of the present invention is applicable to e-mail, FTP (file transfer protocol), telnet, etc., which are serviced through the Internet in addition to the world wide web (WWW).

This invention is capable of various modifications and implementations without departing from the scope of the following claims.

As described above, the web page access system according to the embodiment of the present invention can access a web page using a real name in addition to a URL such as a domain name, which is made in English, so that users need to memorize a connection word of a specific web page. There is no.

In addition, as a web page access service using a real name is made through a number of sites affiliated with a task, users can easily and quickly access a service through a plurality of sites, not limited to a specific site.

In addition, as the fee for providing the service is calculated based on the frequency of the access service, a reliable business alliance with the service request site may be established, and fairness may be established according to the cost calculation.
