If the request has been validated, i.e., the request of the peer has been approved, a peer is created at step 160 and an acceptance notification is generated at step 165 .

  • On-line voting schemas are known in the art (see for example U.S. Pat. No. 6,175,833, the entire contents and disclosure of which is incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein ), and can be implemented to enable peer voting on rules dependent upon the needs of the region/community.
  • FIG. 8 depicts an example process for creating a new rule in accordance with the invention.
  • a logged in system user via his/her computer device 32 , can initiate creation of a new rule. Then, dependent upon the needs of the type of community, vocabulary and rule language level information are obtained.
  • This vocabulary and rule language level information is used to specify an Object/Action model (an “action” to be performed on an “object”) and possible level of the reasoning supported by the system.
  • Object/Action model an “action” to be performed on an “object”
  • a community may comprise a meeting place for children, with a specified vocabulary for interaction being the ability to only interact using voice or text-only, for example.
  • Example of such rule is “messages/communications do not contain coarse words”, and list of coarse words/expressions is kept in some accessible storage device which can be compared against.
  • the user creates one or more new rules of appropriate reasoning level.
  • An example rule that may be implemented comprises specifying that no-one can share art with other peers under 15 years of age, for example, or that only select few have voting rights. Any rule that is created must then be verified to establish syntactic correctness which verification step is performed at step 210 , FIG. 8 . If rule is incorrect it is returned to the user for correction as indicated by the line 211 . Continuing, however, a rule that is determined as correct is submitted to the regional acceptance process as indicated at step 215 . As will be described in greater detail hereinbelow, upon acceptance of the rule, a process of initialization of verification is started as indicated at step 220 . That is, upon acceptance of the rule, any existing communications will be verified against newly accepted rule.

  • the object model defines the structural relationships and dynamic interaction between a group of objects expressing virtual society. They may be realized in the language of choice (such as Java, C++, etc.).
  • Objects of the virtual society are created and implemented to represent one or more of the following: the root region, represented as object 502 ; the region or society, represented as object 505 ; the member, represented as object 510 ; and action models, represented as objects 515 .
  • Corresponding objects representing rules are depicted in FIG. 10 as comprising absolute rules, represented as objects 520 ; and, rules, represented as objects 525 .
  • Realized objects of the virtual society are part of the implementing computer program and are created and invoked by computer program when there is a need for a structure or interaction specific to the virtual society.
  • FIG. 11 shows the block diagram of an action “meta-rule” depicting the process enabling a member (peer) to perform an action in the region (for example, sending an e-mail to a peer under the age of 15 that includes a non-text-based attachment greater than 2 Gbytes).
  • This is performed by interaction between a member and the system 50 providing the virtual society infrastructure.
  • the following sequence is implemented when a member of the community requests an action be performed: a member 510 first initiates an action request. Then, the regional virtual society system hypervisor automatically performs a rule consistency check for checking the consistency of the request against the set of absolute rules 520 and regional rules 525 in an automated or semi-automated fashion. If the request conforms to the previous check, the request is being implemented as indicated at 550 , FIG. 11 . Otherwise, if the action request does not conform to the set of absolute and regional rules it is rejected as indicated at 575 .
  • rules can be categorized as comprising Absolute or “Hypervisor” rules and Regional rules.
  • Hypervisor rules include, but are not limited to: a rule that every existing peer has the right to exist until this peer or hypervisor decides to de-construct itself; or, a rule that every user may register to the system upon agreement of hypervisor; a rule that the common resource which is being shared by peers is possible to exist according to regional/society rules enforcers.
  • Regional rules these are generated by members of the region/society with regional rules being enforced by regional/society rules enforcers.
  • a Verification Service is implemented for requesting vocabulary from an application in order to create the object and action model.
  • the Verification Service requests the needed language level (examples of the language level may be forward reasoning, backward reasoning, first order logic, description logic, etc.).
  • the vocabulary of the region binds to the Object/Action Model using late binding or lazy binding schema as indicated at step 260 .
  • usage of different rule inference engines may be used in accordance with the patterns as described in commonly-owned, co-pending United States Patent Publication No. 2004/0083454 A1, entitled Object Oriented Framework for Reasoning Having Pluggable Inference Engines, the whole disclosure and contents of which are incorporated by reference as if fully set forth herein.
