PROCESSING INPUT DATA COMPRISING REFERENCES TO PRODUCTS OR SERVICES

摘要

To identify a product or service for which online information is to be found, input data is analysed and enhanced. The input data can be a web page retrieved by the user using a web browser on an end-user device, which is analysed by embedded code in the web page or a browser plug-in in connection with a server. Alternatively, the input data can be a reference of a particular product or service provided by the end-user device to the server in the form of a text, URL, bar code, digital image or digitized voice.
