Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de traitement d'informations capable de présenter de manière appropriée des informations à un utilisateur, un procédé de traitement d'information et un programme. Un serveur obtient des informations en rapport avec un contexte d'utilisateur. Le serveur sélectionne des informations de présentation qui doivent être présentées à un utilisateur en se basant sur le contexte d'utilisateur obtenu. Le serveur commande un procédé pour présenter les informations de présentation en se basant sur le contexte d'utilisateur. Cette technologie est applicable, par exemple, à un serveur ou similaire qui fournit un service pour recommander des articles d'actualité et similaires.
