  • (Factor 1) Number of reserved slots
  • the reserved person who has reserved the reserved slots determines the golf play schedule for the reserved slots to be moved. It needs to be adjusted. Accordingly, the more reserved slots, the more time is required for schedule adjustment. Therefore, it is considered that the more the number of reserved slots, the lower the probability that the reserved person will accept the movement of the reserved slots. Therefore, the golf course reservation server 1 lowers the reservation probability score as the number of reserved frames included in the target continuous frame increases. For example, in the example of FIG. 2A, it is assumed that three continuous frames are designated as a search condition. Here, in the three consecutive frames from 7:00, the number of reserved frames is 1. In three consecutive frames from 7:21, the number of reserved frames is two. Therefore, the reservation probability score is higher in the three continuous frames from 7:00 than in the three continuous frames from 7:21.
  • the golf course reservation server 1 lowers the reservation probability score as the number of members of the group playing in the reserved frame included in the target continuous frame increases. For example, the golf course reservation server 1 adds up the number of members of all reserved frames included in the target continuous frame, and lowers the reservation probability score as the total number of people increases. For example, in the example of FIG.
  • the total value of the number of players is 4 in the three continuous frames from 7:00.
  • the total number of players is 8.
  • the total number of players is 2. Therefore, the reservation probability score of the three consecutive frames from 7:42 is the highest, and the reservation probability score of the three consecutive frames from 7:21 is the lowest.
  • Fractor 3 Number of people who have made reservations (number of reservation groups) Not all of the one or more reserved frames included in the target continuous frame are reserved by one reserved person. There may be cases where a separate reserved person makes a reservation for each part of one or more reserved slots. The number of reserved persons corresponds to the number of groups that play with one or more reserved frames included in the target continuous frame. When all the reserved frames included in the target continuous frame are moved, it is necessary to adjust the schedule for each group. If all the reserved persons adjust the schedule and all the reserved persons do not accept the movement of the reserved frame, the target continuous frame cannot be secured as an empty frame.
  • the reservation probability is the product of the probability of accepting the movement of the reserved frame for each number of reserved persons. Therefore, it is considered that as the number of reserved persons increases, the probability that all reserved persons accept the movement of the reserved frame is low. Therefore, the golf course reservation server 1 lowers the reservation probability score as the number of reserved persons who have reserved the reserved frame included in the target continuous frame increases. For example, in the example of FIG. 2A, the number of reserved persons is 2 in the four continuous frames from 7:07. In the four consecutive frames from 7:21, the number of reserved persons is one. Therefore, the 4-continuous frame from 7:21 has a higher reservation probability score than the 4-continuous frame from 7:07.
  • (Factor 4) Movement width of the reserved frame When moving the reserved frame included in the target continuous frame, the change in the schedule becomes larger as the movement width is longer. Therefore, it takes time to adjust the schedule. Therefore, the golf course reservation server 1 lowers the reservation probability score as the movement width from the reserved frame included in the target continuous frame to the time frame of the destination candidate is longer. When there are a plurality of time frames of destination candidates, the golf course reservation server 1 calculates a reservation probability score based on, for example, the movement width of the destination candidate with the shortest movement width from the reserved frame to the time frame.

  • the golf course reservation server 1 may regard, for example, a search request operation first performed by the user after logging in to the golf course reservation site as an initial search for calculating the reservation time.
  • the golf course reservation server 1 may consider that the user has stopped using the golf course reservation site when the user's operation on the golf course reservation site has not been performed for a predetermined time or more. Then, the golf course reservation server 1 regards the search request operation first performed by the user after the user's operation with respect to the golf course reservation site for a predetermined time or more as the first search for calculating the reservation time. May be.
  • (Factor 6) Number of searches As a result of the golf course reservation server 1 performing a search by designating a certain search condition, the golf course and plan desired by the user in the searched golf course, plan, and time frame If there is no time frame, the user may request another search by specifying another search condition. When the user changes the search condition and requests the search many times, the user may be wondering which golf course, plan and time frame to select. Therefore, the time frame selected by the user after a number of searches has been performed has a high probability of being selected as a result of deliberation. Therefore, the golf course reservation server 1 has a larger number of searches from the first search operation of the golf course to the reservation of the reserved frame for the reserved person who has reserved the reserved frame included in the target continuous frame. Reduce the booking probability score.
  • (Factor 7) Desired start time zone specified as a search condition When a user specifies a desired start time zone as a search condition, there is a high probability that the user wants to start playing within the range of the specified time zone. . Therefore, the probability that the reserved person accepts the movement of the time frame to the desired start time zone is higher than the probability that the reserved person accepts the movement of the time frame to a time zone other than the desired start time zone. Accordingly, the golf course reservation server 1 has a higher reservation probability score when the destination start time frame is included in the desired start time zone than when the destination start time frame is not included in the desired start time zone. To do.
  • (Factor 8) Trends in the time zone reserved by the reserved person There may be trends in the time zone reserved by the user for each user. For example, it is assumed that the reserved person has a tendency to reserve a time frame between 5 o'clock and 7 o'clock. In this case, if the time frame of the destination candidate is between 5 o'clock and 7 o'clock, the reserved person accepts the movement of the reserved frame than when the time frame of the destination candidate is in another time zone.

From the search result of the currently available time frames displayed on the time frame selection page, the user can recognize which time frame is the reserved time frame. Therefore, a user who hates playing in a group immediately after another person's group does not reserve a time frame immediately after the other person's reserved frame. Therefore, the golf course reservation server 1 is a case where the reserved person does not tend to reserve the time frame immediately after the other person's reserved frame, and the previous time frame is empty in the time frame of the destination candidate. When there is no time slot that is a frame, the reservation probability score is set higher than when there is a time zone in which the previous time frame is an empty frame.

If a golfer who is good at golfing plays immediately after a player who is not good at golfing, the golfer who is good at golfing may wait for play because the play of the previous golfer is slow. Many users hate to encounter such a situation. For this reason, it is considered that it is not preferable to set the time frame immediately after the reserved frame where a group with poor members play as a destination candidate.

Make the reservation probability score lower than if the skill of the member is not low. For example, the golf course reservation server 1 may lower the reservation probability score when the skill of at least one member is low.
