Abstract

1504113 Transport reservation/ticketing system INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 17 March 1976 10814/76 Addition to 1437883 Heading G4H A transport reservation and/or ticketing system comprises a host data processor 1 containing a data base 2, and a plurality of local data processors 4 each connected to one or more ticketing terminals 13 containing a data entry unit 15 and a display 14, the data base at processor 1 including a full "gazetteer" which lists all possible origins and destinations in the system, each local processor 4 including only part of the data base, which part includes a local gazetteer listing only some of the origins and destinations, whereby during operation of a terminal an origin or destination can be displayed using either the local gazetteer or the full gazetteer to enable selection of that origin or destination by means of the data entry unit. The present system is an improved version of that disclosed in parent Specification and is arranged as in Specification 1,504,112; processor 1 may be connected to other processors 6 containing different data bases, and the local processors 4 contain a ticket printer 16, a RAM 9 and a floppy magnetic disc file 17 (Fig. 3, not shown). The part of the data base stored at a local processor includes local subsets enabling display and selection of the most popular destinations and/or origins without reference to either gazetteer, the local gazetteer lists the next most popular origins and destinations, while the least popular ones are listed only in the full gazetteer. Fig. 6 shows display 14 and data entry keys 15. There are four subsets selected by keys LS1- LS4 (the display 102, 103 of subset LS1 being shown). If the location required is in the subset, the key adjacent the display thereof is pressed and a ticket is printed as shown in display 101. If the location is in none of the subsets, the local gazetteer is selected and displayed (Fig. 10, not shown); this display contains a pointer to the full gazetteer so that this can be selected directly if the location is not found. Otherwise, the display is "backspaced" (BS), a key "AUTRES DEST(inations)" is selected and a first level "index" display is obtained. A second level "index" is displayed on selection of a key, and a further selection of a key causes the appropriate page of the full gazetteer to be fetched from the host processor (Figs. 11-13, not shown).
