An information distribution system distributes information over a distribute d network, e.g. the Internet, in a multi-phase manner. In particular, the information distribution system provides, for example, to an end user, a mod el for determining a particular output (S120). Then, as a user requests the mos t current output of the model (S130), a parameter set is forwarded to the user (S140) and introduced to the model. This parameter set, with the cooperation of the model, allows for determining, for example, a current merchants prici ng information for a plurality of goods and/or service (S150). By using this model based approach, the entire set of information need not be distributed to the user every time an update is made. To the contrary, only a sub-set of information, i.e., the parameters, will be forwarded to the user for updatin g of information at a user device.
