Message transmission method and device in instant messaging

The invention relates to the field of network instant messaging, in particular to a message transmitting method in instant messaging and a message transmitting device in instant messaging.

Instant Messaging (IM) is a technology that enables people to identify online users and exchange messages with them (including text messages, files, voices, videos, etc.) on the Internet, due to their immediacy and low cost. Many advantages, such as high efficiency, have become one of the most popular ways of network communication.

Usually, instant messaging is a process in which a terminal or website platform interacts with an instant messaging server over a network. For example, a typical instant messaging process is:

1. User A enters his or her own username and password to log in to the instant messaging server. The server authenticates the user by reading the user database. If the username and password are correct, the user's IP address and IM client software are registered. The version number and the TCP/UDP nickname used, and then return the sign that User A is successfully logged in. At this time, User A's status in the IM system is Online Presence.

2. According to the Buddy List that the user A memorizes on the IM server, the server sends the relevant information on the user A line to the PC of the instant messaging friend who is also on the same line, and the information includes the online status and the IP address. The TCP port number used by the IM client.

3. The instant messaging server sends the friend list and related information memorized by the user A to the server to the PC. The information includes the online status, the IP address, the TCP port number used by the IM client, and the like. Information, after receiving the IM client on User A's PC, these buddy lists and their online status will be displayed.

In this case, if user A wants to chat with his online friend user B, he will directly send the chat information to user B's PC through the IP address and TCP nickname of user B sent from the server. User B's IM client software is displayed on the screen, and then user B directly replies to user A's PC, so that the instant messages of both parties communicate directly through the network, that is, peer-to-peer communication (Peer) To Peer). However, if the peer-to-peer communication between user A and user B is difficult to establish due to firewall, network speed, etc., or the speed is very slow, the IM server can also provide a message relay service, that is, the instant messages of user A and user B are all sent first. The IM server is forwarded to the other party by the server.

With the development of instant messaging technology, there may be such an application scenario:

If the amount of data received by an IM account on the receiving end of the message is too large or too large, more resources need to be allocated for the IM account, which increases the system overhead. Such excessive use of resources and overhead may cause various system problems, such as Transmission interruption, system drop, etc.

Therefore, a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art at this stage is how to provide a message transmission method in instant messaging for reasonably allocating resources for an IM account, so that the user can obtain a better experience.

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a message transmission method in instant messaging, so as to reasonably allocate resources for an IM account, so that the user can obtain a better experience.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a message transmitting apparatus in instant messaging for ensuring the implementation and application of the above method in practice.

Any combination based on the above embodiments is an embodiment of the present invention, but due to space limitations, the present specification will not be described in detail herein.

The invention is further illustrated below by a specific example of the application of the embodiments of the invention.

Assume that in the instant messaging system of online transactions, the sender of the message is buyer B, and the sender of the message S' includes S, Sn and Snn, where S is the seller's primary account, Sn (including S1, S2.... ..) is the first-level sub-account associated with S, and Snn (including S11, S12, S21, S22, ...) is the secondary sub-account associated with Sn. B can communicate with S’ through an instant messaging tool and can obtain the online status of S’ from the web page. The display rule of the online state is that as long as there is a secondary sub-account line, the first-level sub-account icon is displayed as an online state. When B clicks on the online status icon of Sn on the webpage, the script sending request in the webpage can be triggered to the IM distribution server, and the IM distribution server can perform the following allocation process:

S1, determining whether the buyer B is set to be shared with the related sub-account message by the main account S, if yes, executing S2; if not, executing S6; S2, obtaining the online status of S, Sn, if online, executing S3; if not, execute S7; S3, read historical transmission information of B and S, Sn, determine whether there is a recent contact account on the line, if yes, execute S4; otherwise, execute S5; S4, contact the nearest contact The account transmits the message; S5, finds the account that currently receives the least message and does not set the "reject message", transmits the message to the account; S6, transmits the message to S; S7, randomly selects a Sn to transmit the message.

It can be seen that an application scenario of the present invention is that in the instant messaging provided by the online trading platform, the service volume of the seller is large when the complicated message is processed.
