Abstract

An interested article serving system includes a client device and a server device, serving an information in accordance with a request from the client device, connected through a network system. The server device comprises a WWW server section operating in response to the requirement from the client device, a data base server section storing personal information and access history of a client using the client device, an interested article extraction server section analyzing the access history of the client stored in the data base server section and then producing a search condition equation, and a superparallel computer searching article data sequentially fed from an external article producing computer in accordance with the search condition equation produced in the interested article extraction server section. In such system, a plurality of different search condition equations are set individually on a plurality of different processors of the superparallel computer, the article data is subjected to full text search and a result coincident with the search condition equations is transmitted to the client device.

Claims

1. An interested article serving system in which a client device and a server device serving an information in accordance with a request from the client device are connected through a network system, said server device comprising:

a WWW server section operating in response to the requirement from the client device;

a data base server section storing personal information and access history of a client using the client device;

an interested article extraction server section analyzing the access history of the client stored in the data base server section and then producing a search condition equation; and

a superparallel computing means searching article data swquentially fed from an external article producing computer in accordance with the search condition equation produced in the interested article extraction server section,

wherein a plurality of different search condition equations are set individually on a plurality of different processors of said superparallel computing means, said article data is subjected to full text search and a result coincident with said search condition equations is transmitted to said client device.

2. An interested article serving system according to claim 1, wherein said article data is received from an external article production computer other than said server device.

3. An interested article serving system according to claim 1, wherein said access history is accumulated for each of clients and when the client accesses a plurality of articles, in a plurality of times, resembling in contents as the access history, a natural language included in said plurality of articles having resembling contents is used as a search keyword of said search condition equation.

4. An interested article serving system according to claim 1, wherein said access history is accumulated for each of clients and when the client accesses a plurality of articles, in a plurality of times, different in contents as the access history, constant number of articles or number of articles which are accessed in a constant term is determined as reference number of articles, and same natural languages appearing in a plurality of articles having different contents in said reference number of articles are used as a search keyword of said search condition equation.

5. An interested article serving system according to claim 4, wherein said search condition equation adopts a characteristic natural language as said search keyword which is weighed by number of appearance of the natural language in the specified article data designated by the client and a ratio of appearance of said natural language in a plurality of articles included in the access history of the client.

6. An interested article serving system according to claim 1, wherein said access history is accumulated for each of clients and when the client designates a specific article data as the access history, a natural language included in said specific article data is used as a search keyword of said search condition equation.

7. An interested article serving system according to claim 1, wherein said client device is a portable terminal device.

8. An interested article serving system according to claim 7, wherein said portable terminal device is a portable telephone.

9. An interested article serving method using a serving system in which a client device and a server device serving an information in accordance with a request from the client device are connected through a network system, said serving method comprising the steps of:

analyzing an access history of a client using the client device and then producing a plurality of different search condition equations;

setting said plurality of different search condition equations independently on a plurality of different processors included in a superparallel computer means;

searching simultaneously parallelly a full text of an article data subsequently fed from an external article producing computer with said plurality of different search condition equations; and

serving a result which coincident with the search condition equation to the client device.
