Description

Method, device and system for selecting users based on conditions The present application claims to be submitted to the Chinese Patent Office on January 15, 2009, and the application number is 200910000567. 8. The invention name is "a method, device and system for selecting users based on conditions." The priority of the Chinese Patent Application, the entire contents of which is incorporated herein by reference.

Technical field

The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a method, apparatus, and system for selecting a user based on conditions.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION With the development of telecommunication technology, future services are rich and colorful, and many sessions of the service establishment phase need to select users who need to join the session according to certain conditions. These conditions will be based on various information possessed by the user, such as presentation. (Presence) information, location information, and user interest and hobbies information.

In the existing communication technology, since different user information is distributed on different servers, such as presence information stored on the Presence server, the presence information includes the user's online information, hobbies, user's mood, etc.; Location information is stored. On the Location server, the location information refers to the current geographic location of the user. In many cases, it may be necessary to obtain a list of users who are in the vicinity of the mall and whose status is online. In this case, both the current presentation information of the user and the geographical location information need to be known. The current method can only be that the requesting party first sends a request to the Presence server to obtain the User Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), and then sends a request to the Location server to obtain the user URI of the geographical location near the shopping mall, requesting The party will conduct a comprehensive analysis of these users, and obtain a user whose status is online near the mall. Such an operation requires that a server having a different request direction send a request to obtain a user who satisfies the condition and compare the returned results, which causes great inconvenience to the requester. The proposed condition-based user selection (CBUS, Condition Based URIs Selection) solves the above-mentioned shortcomings. The requesting party can send the requirements or conditions for geographic location, presentation and other information to the server CBUS Server, and the CBUS Server obtains the presentation information to the Presence server. Obtain geographical location information from the Location server, and analyze and synthesize the results, and send the user URI that satisfies the requesting condition of the requester to the requesting party.

CBUS functions have specific applications in PoC services, such as dynamic PoC groups, invitation appointments, handling of crisis events, and masking of condition-based user sessions. In the dynamic PoC group application, the user selection is continuously performed according to the conditions set by the requester, and the user who satisfies the setting condition is selected, thereby continuously updating the group member list. Similarly, the functionality of CBUS has specific applications in other services, such as CPM and MobAdo.

The basic content of CBUS is to make a user's choice of various information that the requester can provide according to some conditions, so as to determine whether the user is the object that the requester is looking for. These users can choose from a set of users set by the requester or not, and CBUS must use the search operation to find all users who meet the conditions. When CBUS performs user selection, it can adopt two methods. One is a one-shot selection method similar to snapshots, that is, only one selection is made for whether the user information satisfies these conditions; the other is a method of multiple selections, which is User information is continuously monitored and continuously updated The user information is re-selected to obtain an updated selection result, which can be up to the condition, or it can be within a specific time.

The technical solutions provided by the prior art are:

The requester includes the selection criteria and scope in the request message, and the returned result includes only the user URI that satisfies the selection criteria and scope. CBUS supports a reassessment of conditions and scope. When re-evaluating, you can modify the selected condition and scope to return the result. If only the user URI is returned, the requester will not know whether the result is a result of the condition and scope unchanged or the result of the change; if the requester is When sending multiple different choices, it also causes the requester to be unclear which result is selected. At the same time, if only the user URI that satisfies the condition is returned, the requester will not know which condition information is not satisfied by the unselected user. It is inconvenient for future choices. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, the present invention provides a method, apparatus and system for selecting a user based on conditions, which can return desired content information according to user settings.

In this embodiment, the requesting party sets the condition and range selected by the user in the request message, and sets the condition and/or range selected by the user and the user URI satisfying the selection condition while returning the conditional user URI to the requesting party. The number is returned to the requester. In this way, returning the result can make the requester more clearly see the conditions and scope of the user selection corresponding to each selection result. For example, the requester A wants to select the friends in the B, C, D, E online, geographical location information in Beijing, and set the return result including the condition and/or range selected by the user, and the number of user URIs satisfying the selection condition. . Similarly, when returning a user who satisfies the selection condition, the corresponding number of users is returned to the requesting party. The implementation process is shown in Figure 2, the specific steps are:

Step S101, A sends the selected user range B, C, D, E to the CBUS Server, and the condition information is online and the geographical location is in Beijing;

Step S102, setting other content required to be provided to the CBUS Server (the user URI that satisfies the condition is required to be returned), and other contents: conditions and ranges selected by the user;

Step S103, the CBUS Server receives the request of A and saves the request message (the request message includes the condition and range of the foregoing selected user);

Step S104: The CBUS Server obtains online information of B, C, D, and E from the presence server, and acquires location information of B, C, D, and E from the location server.

Step S105, the presentation server and the location server return related information of B, C, D, and E;

Step S106, the CBUS Server saves the selected user information and comprehensively analyzes the user URI that satisfies the condition; Step S107, the CBUS Server checks the request message saved in step S103;

Step S108: The CBUS Server returns the content information requested by the requesting party to the requesting party according to the setting of the requesting party in the request message, where the information includes the URIs of the users B, C, and D, and the conditions and ranges selected by the user, as shown in Table 1.

Sending the user URI list that satisfies the condition and the content information requested by the request to the requesting party, so that the CBUS server can also send to the requesting party, such as the condition and range selected by the user and the number of user URIs satisfying the selection condition, etc. Rather than providing a user URI that satisfies the conditions, the user's needs and experience can be better met.

Embodiment 2

In the first embodiment, the requester includes the conditions and ranges selected by the user in the returned result. The difference from the first embodiment is that, when the requester sets the condition and the range of selecting the user, when the conditional user URI is returned to the requesting party, if there is a user who does not satisfy the condition within the selection range, It is also possible to return the reason information of the unsatisfied user to the requesting party, so that the requesting party knows which condition information of the users is not satisfied, so as to determine whether to reselect the user again in the next operation. For example, the requester A wants to select the B, C, D, E, F conditions in the online, football-loving friends, and A sets the return result in the request message, including the condition and range selected by the user, and the unselected user. Reason information. The implementation process is shown in Figure 3. The specific steps are as follows:

Step S201, A sends the selected user range B, C, D, E, F to the CBUS Server, and the condition information is online, and the favorite ball;

Step S202, setting other content required to be provided to the CBUS Server (the user URI that satisfies the condition must be returned), other content: the condition and range selected by the user, and the reason information of the user not selected;

Step S203, the CBUS Server receives the request of A and saves the request message;

Step S204, the CBUS Server obtains the status information and the hobby information of the B, C, D, E, and F from the presence server. In step S205, the presence server returns the condition information of 13, C, D, E, and F, as shown in Table 2. ;

Therefore, in the technical solution provided by the embodiment, the CBUS server according to the condition selects, according to the request sent by the requesting party, the user URI list that satisfies the condition and the content information that is requested to be sent to the requesting party, so that the CBUS server further The requester can send the user-selected conditions and scope, and the user information that does not satisfy the selection condition, which better satisfies the user's needs and experience. Embodiment 3

In this embodiment, when the CBUS Server selects according to the user selection condition and range of the requesting party, if the result of the selection is that the user who does not satisfy the selection condition within the selected range or the user who does not satisfy the condition exists. The requesting party may reset the request returning content when sending the selection condition and the range (for example, the user URI list), and set to return only the user who satisfies the partial condition information specified by the requesting party, and carry the partial condition information. For example, the requester A chooses B, C, D, E, F, which loves football, in Beijing. Friend, and A sets the return result in the request message. If there is no user who satisfies the condition, then the user who is in Beijing is returned and the part condition is returned, and the time of the selection is returned. The specific implementation process includes the following steps:

Step S301, A sends the selected user range B, C, D, E, F to the CBUS Server, the condition information is online, in Beijing; Step S302, setting other return content to the CBUS Server, the other content is: If the condition is not met When the user returns, the user who is in Beijing is returned and returns to the partial condition, and the time of returning to the selection;

Step S303, the CBUS Server receives the request of A and saves the request message;

Step S304, the CBUS Server obtains location information and hobby information of B, C, D, E, and F from the presence server. Step S305, the presence server and the location server return condition information of B, C, D, E, and F to the CBUS Server. , as shown in Table 4.

Step S306, the CBUS Server saves the selected user information and comprehensively analyzes, and obtains a user who does not meet the condition; Step S307, the CBUS Server checks the request message saved in step S303;

Step S308, the CBUS Server returns the requested content information to the requesting party according to the setting of the requesting party in step S302, where the information includes the URI of the user (D, E, part of the condition is in Beijing, time information selected this time, such as Table 5 shows.

The selection time is 2008-8-5 15:00. It can be seen that, in the technical solution provided by the embodiment, the request message sent by the requester carries the condition for selecting the user URI and the content information required to be provided; and the user CBUS server is selected based on the condition. Should request, the user URI that satisfies the condition and its requirements The content information is sent to the requesting party, so that the CBUS server can also send to the requesting party, such as the condition selected by the user and the selection time, which can better satisfy the user's needs and experiences. Embodiment 4

In this embodiment, if the requester first makes a user selection, and the user selection result is not returned to the requesting party, the requesting party may feel that the user scope has been added less than one user or some conditions are omitted in the selection condition. And then re-added some conditions in the previous task. In order to distinguish whether the first or second result is returned, the content of the second return result is set at the same time as the second selection condition is sent. It is required to return the changed user selection range or the changed user selection condition. If the requester A first selects 13, C, D, E, the condition information is the online user. When the result is not returned, the requester modifies the user range and increases the user range to B, C, D, E, F. , the selection condition is unchanged, and the other contents of the returned result are set, and the content includes the range selected by the user. Referring to Figure 4, the specific implementation steps are as follows:

Step S401, A sends the selected user range B, C, D, E to the CBUS Server, and the condition information is online; Step S402, the CBUS Server obtains state information of B, C, D, and E from the presence server;

Step S403, A adds a user range to the first request message, increases the user range to B, C, D, E, F, and the condition information does not change, and sets other content required to be provided (the user URI that satisfies the condition is Must be returned), the other content is: return the range selected by the user;

Step S404, the CBUS Server acquires state information of B, C, D, E, and F from the presence server.

Step S405, the presence server returns user information, as shown in Table 6. CBUS Server analysis shows that users B, C, and E are satisfied; Table 6

Step S406, the CBUS Server determines, according to the condition and range selected by the user, whether the selected user is the first selection result or the second selection result;

Step S407, when it is determined that the result is the second selection, the request message saved in the CBUS Server is viewed; and in step S408, the user URI that satisfies the condition and the range selected by the user set by the requesting party are sent to the requesting party. As shown in Table 7.
