CONTROL OF CONCENTRATION OF FEED ITEMS IN AN AGGREGATED FEED DOCUMENT

摘要

14 ABSTRACT The invention relates to a method and arrangement for inserting feed items from different feed documents into an aggregated feed document. A feed aggregator receives feed 5 items, each comprising a feed item ID, fromfeeddocuments and inserts them into an aggregated feed document. The feed aggregator decides if a second feed item from a second feed document shall be inserted to the aggregated feed document by using the a first feed item ID of a first feed item from a 10 first feed document. The feed aggregator calculates a first feed item ID value of the first feed item ID associated with the first feed item and use said first feed item ID value to decide if a second feed item from the second feed document shall be inserted into the aggregated feed document. If that 15 will be the case, the feed aggregator changes a second feed item ID associated with the second feed item to a changed feed item ID related to characteristics of the first feed item ID that gave the result of inserting the second feed item to the aggregated feed document. The feed aggregator 20 then inserts the second feed item from the second feed document with the changed feed item ID to the aggregated feed document. One advantage of the invention is that the concentration of feed items from specific feed channels can be controlled.25 Figure for publication: Figure 3
