Crowd-location based transactions
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- identifying, by a system comprising a processor, identities of respective business entities located within a cell sector of wireless service coverage;
determining, by the system, that a number of mobile devices that occupy the cell sector at a defined time satisfies a defined function that is based on an average occupation of the cell sector by the mobile devices over a defined time interval and a business type of the respective business entities, wherein the number of the mobile devices that occupy the cell sector at the defined time satisfies the defined function at least in part by the number of the mobile devices being determined to be greater than a defined threshold number that is equal to an average occupation number representing the average occupation of the cell sector by the mobile devices over the defined time interval in addition to an occupation offset number associated with a business entity of the respective business entities; and
in response to the determining,determining, by the system, demand information representative of a transactional demand of a mobile device of the mobile devices based on a profile of the mobile device,matching, by the system, the transactional demand to a commerce supply of the business entity, wherein the business entity is determined to be occupying the cell sector, anddetermining, by the system, based on the transactional demand, a commerce asset associated with the commerce supply for a transaction between the mobile device and a device associated with the business entity, wherein the device is configured to fulfill a portion of the transaction.

Abstract
Crowd-location based analytics for transactions are provided. An assembly of mobile devices in a cell sector (or, in some embodiments, a cell) of wireless coverage can be determined. The assembly can be referred to as a crowd and can comprise a number of mobile devices greater than the cell sector'"'"'s average device occupation. Organization entities located within the cell sector also can be identified. A demand or interest for an asset (e.g., a service or merchandise) can be determined for the mobile device based at least on a device profile. The demand or interest can be associated with the organization entity that can provide the asset. Promotional information related to the asset can be sent to the mobile device and/or a device associated with the organization entity. The mobile device can present at least a portion of such information and a transaction related to the asset can be performed otherwise facilitated.

8. A system, comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising; determining that a number of mobile devices that are located in a cell sector at a defined time satisfies a defined function that is based on an average number of mobile devices located in the cell sector over a defined time period and respective business types of respective business entities located in the cell sector, wherein the number of the mobile devices that are located in the cell sector at the defined time satisfying the defined function comprises the number of the mobile devices being determined to exceed a threshold number that is determined based on the average number and an offset factor associated with a business entity of the respective business entities; in response to the determining that the number of the mobile devices that are located in the cell sector at the defined time satisfies the defined function, determining demand information representative of a transactional demand associated with a mobile device of the mobile devices based on a profile of the mobile device associated with a user identity; and determining, based on the transactional demand, a commerce asset for a transaction between the mobile device and a device associated with the business entity, wherein the device is configured to fulfill a portion of the transaction, wherein the device is determined to be located within the cell sector, and wherein the commerce asset is associated with a supply of the commerce asset associated with the business entity. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
-
determining that a number of communication devices, which are located in a cell coverage area at a defined time, satisfies a defined function that is based on an average number of communication devices located in the cell coverage area over a defined time period and respective business types of respective business entities located in the cell coverage area, wherein the defined function is satisfied when the number of the communication devices is determined to be greater than a defined threshold number that is determined based on the average number and an occupation offset value associated with a business entity of the respective business entities; in response to the determining that the number of the communication devices that are located in the cell coverage area at the defined time satisfies the defined function, determining demand information representative of a transactional demand associated with a communication device of the communication devices based on a profile of the communication device associated with a user identity; and determining, based on the transactional demand, a commerce asset for a transaction between the communication device and a device associated with the business entity, wherein the device is configured to fulfill a portion of the transaction, wherein the device is determined to be located within the cell coverage area, and wherein the commerce asset is associated with a supply of the commerce asset associated with the business entity. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
