Fuel distribution network |
| 摘要 |
A method for using a fuel distribution network. The method including receiving a fuel reservation request (FRR) from a fuel network user interface module (FNUIM), obtaining a physical location of the FNUIM, determining a user associated with the FRR, and obtaining a list of fuel stations using the physical location and information associated with the user. The method further includes sending, to FNUIM, a list of fuel stations, receiving, from the FNUIM, a selection request specifying a fuel station from the list of fuel stations and a fuel reservation amount specifying an amount of fuel, sending a backend service provider (BSP) reservation request to the fuel station, where the BSP reservation request comprises the fuel reservation amount, and sending a confirmation message comprising a reservation expiration time to the FNUIM. |

1. A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising computer readable program code embodied therein for causing a computer system to perform a method, the method comprising:
receiving a fuel reservation request (FRR) from a fuel network user interface module (FNUIM); obtaining a physical location of the FNUIM; determining a user associated with the FRR; obtaining a list of fuel stations using the physical location and information associated with the user; sending, to FNUIM, a list of fuel stations; receiving, from the FNUIM, a selection request specifying a fuel station from the list of fuel stations and a fuel reservation amount specifying an amount of fuel; sending a backend service provider (BSP) reservation request to the fuel station, wherein the BSP reservation request comprises the fuel reservation amount; and sending a confirmation message comprising a reservation expiration time to the FNUIM, wherein the reservation expiration time is based, at least in part, on current traffic conditions between the physical location of the FNUIM and the fuel station,
wherein the amount of fuel is reserved until the expiration of the reservation expiration time. |
