METHOD OF FACILITATING THE VENDOR ADVERTISEMENT TO LOCAL CONSUMERS VIA DECENTRALIZED SELF-ADJUSTABLE INTERNET BASED APPARATUS

摘要

Proposed are a method and apparatus to improve the food market advertisement in a geo-spatial environment. The goal is achieved by a uniform inventory presentation of the local food store on a common Internet site. That in turn motivates the vendors to participate in a disclosed service, and attracts the customers by a competitive pricing layout. An embodiment determines “on-the-fly” some local gourmet preferences to facilitate the regional and ethnic food market advertisement. The goal is achieved by extracting the evocative product features from the food descriptions provisioned by vendors. Anticipating a massive network load, the proposal also includes an algorithm of allocating a distributed structure to optimize the system's load balance.
