Abstract

La présente invention concerne un appareil de distribution d'informations de programmes classés par ordre de priorité qui reçoit de chaque annonceur un enregistrement d'un indicatif (ID) de station de diffusion et un prix proposé pour cet ID de station de diffusion, puis associe l'ID de station de diffusion au prix proposé pour l'enregistrement. L'appareil de distribution d'informations de programmes classés par ordre de priorité reçoit également de chaque annonceur un enregistrement d'un ID de programme particulier et un prix proposé pour cet ID de programme particulier, puis associe l'ID de programme particulier au prix proposé pour l'enregistrement. L'appareil de distribution d'informations de programmes classés par ordre de priorité détermine, à partir des prix proposés, les priorités pour l'ID de station de diffusion qui correspondent aux prix proposés, afin de créer des informations de priorité et de produire des informations de stations de diffusion classées par ordre de priorité comprenant l'ID de station de diffusion et les informations de priorité. De plus, l'appareil de distribution d'informations de programmes classés par ordre de priorité détermine, à partir des prix proposés enregistrés, les priorités pour l'ID de programme particulier qui correspondent aux prix proposés, afin de créer des informations de priorité et de produire des informations de programmes particuliers classés par ordre de priorité comprenant l'ID de programme particulier et les informations de priorité.
