Method on Providing Ranking Information of Games Using Electronic Map}

The present invention relates to a method for providing game ranking information using electronic maps, and more particularly, the game performance result information of at least one or more game participants from at least one or more game content providing servers that provide a game service for at least one or more game contents. The present invention relates to a method for providing game ranking information using electronic maps, which obtains, processes, and provides game ranking information for a specific purpose category generated by using an electronic map to a user computer that desires the game ranking information.

Domestic application No. 1020000035190, filed date 2000/06/24 Applicant, Deca Communications Inc., inventor Yu In Oh's invention "Contents comparison evaluation service method according to the user inclination and satisfaction index on the Internet" ranking ranking for the website As for, it remains at the level of statistically evaluating consumer satisfaction index and the like, and the concept of electronic map is not even mentioned. Similarly, top 100 sites or hot 1000 sites are available on the Internet.

United States Patent Application 20010039211, Kind Code A1 Yoshizawa, Hideo November 8, 2001, entitled "Client computer, server computer, network ranking system, network ranking method, task processing method and recording medium" Although the ranking is given in accordance with the description of the somewhat, but there is no configuration for the concept of ranking by category.

United States Patent Application 20010034796, Kind Code A1

Zebian, Marwan October 25, 2001, The invention "Intelligent autodialer" describes a method and effect of automatically dialing by utilizing the relative ranking of the network access number among the available network access numbers, but the ranking information It doesn't mention how to use games and products.

United States Patent 6,292,894, Chipman, et al. September 18, 2001, titled "System, method, and medium for retrieving, organizing, and utilizing networked data", relates to sending e-catalogues using the Internet, where "ranking information (such as" more is better "). As can be seen from the phrase "or" closer is better "), the ranking information is used only as a means of subjective judgment or simple comparison.

The server or site that brokers the game (referred to as a server or site or less, for example, battle.net, etc.) or quiz-related sites includes the performance or score of each participant in terms of total points or how many wins or losses. There is a system to manage. However, this method has the following problems.

First, there is no way to know the user's ranking by region. For example, in sports such as boxing, it is possible to know the relative ranks of regional units such as Korea, Korea, Asia, and the world. However, according to the method of managing ranking in various activities or activities online or offline including games on a network, only relative ranks in the largest regional unit that the site manages are presented.

Second, there are no sub-regional units, so only users with the highest relative ranks in the largest geographic area the site wants to manage are displayed in the ranking. That is, the ranking in the unit of provinces, the ranking of the city, the county, the town, the town, the town, the town, and the unit is not displayed.

These categories of administrative divisions are called vertical categories because they are vertically layered.

Spatial areas of your choice (other countries, streets, school buildings, apartments, etc. that can be displayed (2-9) on electronic maps (1-4a)) and conceptual groups (company, department, class, student number, grade) Incompetent or inefficient groups, such as positions or ranks of social life units such as alumni, reunions, employees, deputies, managers, and general managers, can be a category, and these are called 'horizontal categories'.

You can think of a category called a field. Examples include specific games (e.g. StarCraft), quizzes in certain fields (e.g. current affairs), competitions in certain areas (e.g. outside maths), and specific exams (e.g. TOEIC). Can be.

The time category may be one year unit, season unit, January unit, one week unit, one day unit, or full time unit.

Of course, the ranking is not displayed for the new categories generated by these various categories or combinations thereof.

Third, no effective match can be made. In various activities or activities online or offline, including games, etc., it is more interesting if the opponents have a similar level. If the level of difference with the opponent is too great or the task to be solved is too different from the level of the participant, various activities or activities online or offline, including the game, are not of great interest to the user as well as the user. The immersion in various activities or activities online or offline, including games, etc., tends to fall. That is, the conventional win or lose or point management method can not effectively obtain the information that can be connected to the match can be a random match, or the match (match) of the match is not precise.

Fourth, integrated and effective management of various activities or activities online or offline, including games played by individual users, cannot be achieved. If you look at the professional baseball, etc., dozens of pieces of information are managed for each individual, but the game on the network manages only very limited information about the user's behavior and the interactions between other users. It is becoming. This further prevents providing an integrated management system for participation in various activities or activities online or offline, including games through various combinations of various group users. The system that manages the above is called a ranking management center 1-1 or a ranking management system.

Fifth, not only the spectator's or manager's position, but also the user's point of view, it is not possible to comprehensively know the status of various activities or activities, including games, etc., in any unit in any region. This will limit the detailed information on the opponent of various activities or activities, including his or her game, etc., and induce random selection for the opponent's selection by his will. Interfere with the increase of interest in various activities or activities on-line or off-line, including games through selected choices.

Sixth, a multiplicity of activities or activities on or off-line, including a game, etc., and betting on various activities or activities on-line or off-line, including betting, games, etc. Or betting)) The overlapping and multiple management of the activity itself or the results of various activities or activities on or off-line, including bets and games, is impossible. For example, if your ranking is based solely on points, what you can place in a bet is just that point. In other words, even if a bet has various categories such as region, position, field, and time, betting or selection of options (hereinafter referred to as option or less) is possible in betting, and various results are displayed even with one result. output is enabled.

Seventh, only simple results are output for various activities or activities on or off-line, including the user's game, etc. (e.g., whether or not they win or lose, odds, scores or points). This results in less analysis of the results, resulting in less integrated immersion into the game as a whole.

Eighth, if you are not the first in a large unit or the top ranking (e.g. domestic or first in the world), your presence on the network becomes less known to others and your satisfaction with showing off (Self-satisfaction) is lowered, reducing the level of immersion in activities or activities online or offline, including games, and the desire of achievement is not properly met. It is quite difficult for the average user to be ranked in the domestic or global high ranking, whether in various activities or activities online or offline.)

Ninth, in addition to content (contents, game content, etc.) such as games, abundant external support such as games increases the satisfaction of the game or customer attraction, and in spite of the activation of games through the network as a whole, existing external support The system was neglecting this.

Tenth, there is no community service that binds users into categories and supports e-commerce in them, so they cannot strengthen their loyalty and dependency. This is seen as a reduction in traffic for each service provider and a reduction in retention time at the site. In addition, because the user's behavior is not properly measured, it does not provide a user optimized service.

The present invention includes electronic commerce. Existing electronic commerce did not have a relative system based on the regional level of which product is superior to which company. In the case of commerce that takes place on a regional basis, there is no information on which provider of a product or service ranks first, so when a customer makes an order and a choice, a decision is made based on what is exposed randomly or through advertisement. As a result, products and services are often unsatisfactory, and e-commerce has not been activated because there is no information about who is doing well or how well. In addition, there is no real-time evaluation and display system on which organizations and organizations are excellent through evaluations of services of organizations and public institutions that provide various services. It was true that it did not provide ranking information.

The technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is as follows.

First, the unit or category of the group (subject to the following meanings) is subdivided for users (1-17) of various activities or activities on the online or offline, including games, and the like. Allows users 1-17 of various activities or activities online or offline to rank first or higher in the group to which they belong. To this end, the category to which the user 1-17 belongs is largely divided into a vertical category, a horizontal category, a category by category, and a temporal category.

Second, the ranking in the category to which each user 1-17 belongs is variously displayed on the electronic map 1-4a according to the selection of the user 1-17, and the user 1-17 self confirmation. ) And the self-dominant region 11-1 is shown on the electronic map 1-4a at the same time as inducing self satisfaction. In addition, it configures a community for each user 1-17, and implements an electronic commerce system centered on the user 1-17 of the first or upper ranking.

Third, various management results of various activities or activities on or off-line, including a plurality of games on the user's network 1-17, etc. are integrated and managed, and various on-line or off-line including a plurality of games etc. On-line or off-line, including on-line or off-line activities, including specific games in activities or activities, including on-line rankings or present achievements including past achievements, on-going games, etc. It allows you to comprehensively manage one's total history of your activities or activities. To this end, various statistical analysis options are introduced.

Fourth, it has an effective matchmaking process and a challenge and response system to make a target category its own control area (11-1), and it is an online game that includes not only individuals and games but also various groups and groups. Or to perform various activities or activities offline. That is, not only the title match for each category, but also various events can be made more diverse. This can be used as a match match in real time using broadcasting on-line, and the title change, the result of the match, the result of the match, and the ranking change due to the result can be used as the content of the program.

Fifth, it generates a ranking for goods and services, displays it, and suggests how e-commerce can be activated by braking the ranking along with rankings for competitive merchants or service providers based on region.

Sixth, the introduction of online and offline media including computers, wireless wireless terminals, digital TVs, and the like for the processes in which e-commerce takes place based on the ranking information on the online and offline and various environments for executing the processes. Initiate.

Seventh, we develop a ranking application process for non-competitive service providers at the local level, and disclose how the service consumers can receive more efficient services.

In order to achieve the problem to be solved by the present invention, the game performance result information of at least one or more game participants are obtained from at least one or more game content providing server that provides a game service for at least one or more game content, The game ranking information providing server which provides game ranking information to the desired user's computer by (A) from the user computer to one destination category corresponding to a specific location object on the electronic map.

And providing ranking basis information for the category of receiving the selection information from the user computer to the user computer, wherein the ranking basis information includes ranking basic data information for which the ranking of the category is generated and statistical information thereof. And the ranking basic data is data processed by any one or more of win / loss, scoring, quantification, and digitization based on game performance result data of the game participant for the game. Do.

And providing a personal ranking management space for managing ranking information of the game participant of the game participant with respect to at least one game in which the game participant participates.

The user computer can be any one of a PC, PDA, notebook, palm top, e-book, cellular phone, mobile phone, game machine, interactive digital TV, and telematics system. It is preferred that there is at least one.

When the lower category is selected in the step (C), the first ranking holder in the step (B) is excluded from the information on the first ranking holder or the predetermined number of holders in the step (D). It is preferable.

The attribute of the destination category, the surroundings of the destination category, and a subcategory of the destination category is any one selected from an administrative district category corresponding to the administrative district and a school category including any one or more of elementary, secondary, high school, and university. As described above, it is preferable that the subcategory category can be generated based on any one or more selected from grade, department, college and student number.

In any one or more of the steps (B) and (D), the information on the first ranking holder or the predetermined higher ranking holder includes the ranking information of the first ranking holder or the predetermined higher ranking holder. It is preferable to.

First, since the ranking is issued for each category, the likelihood that a user such as a game (1-17) enters the first or the top ranking will be generated as the size of the category decreases. The satisfaction and concentration goes up. In addition, the loyalty and dependence of the user 1-17 such as the game to the content provider such as the game is increased, and the traffic to the provider is increased, and the time to stay in the provider is increased.

Secondly, by managing various results of a plurality of games, etc. on the user's network (1-17), the user's ranking, present achievements including past achievements, his games, etc. It allows for comprehensive management of one's total history.

Third, because it is possible to effectively match opponents, and has a challenge and response system for setting the target category as its own control area (11-1), it is possible to play games among various groups and groups as well as between individuals. As a result, the degree of concentration and attachment to the game increases. In addition to various title matches for each category, various events can be made more diverse.

Fourth, the results of the game, such as one's own game, are displayed (2-9) on the electronic map (1-4a), so that the user can know the ranking in a specific category, and various statistics are displayed on the map category and the non-map category. This can be confirmed variously. In addition, it provides a community for each category unit, and also enables electronic commerce therein.

Fifth, the online education guidance system is created, so that the education contents providers who are evaluated as the best in each region can be identified, so that they can obtain relatively high quality educational contents online or offline.

Sixth, by evaluating the education service contents provided by the education manager, the education service contents providers that are evaluated as the best in each region or category can be identified so that they can obtain the information to provide relatively high quality education service contents online or offline. do.

Seventh, in each game, competition among specific categories such as one region is intensified, and the sense of belonging of the group is intensified. Will contribute.

In the case of mutatis mutandis, parentheses shall refer to the words `` the game used in this paragraph shall apply mutatis mutandis to any act, activity or performance in electronic commerce or non-commercial transactions through goods or services ''.

Goods or services (whether paid or free, including digital content), natural or man-made facilities, people (including corporate or non-corporate divisions, foundations, associations or other groups; The term 'goods' is collectively referred to as an object, such as an action or the result of the action, or a total of time-accumulated actions. Third-party evaluation data on this product, etc., may be the basis for determining the ranking.

A user may perform any activity on a game, a product, etc., which is a subject of the present invention, perform a process, contribute to the generation of ranking related information, access to ranking related information, It exists in the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 or the electronic map 1-4a or the ranking management center which are the object of this invention which uses the ranking related information or displays goods, etc. A person who uses time to interact with any component.

In FIG. 1, the user is indicated as "user 1-17", and the user shows only the relationship with the online event space, the offline event space, and the ranking management center, but this is only an example, and is defined above in connection with the present invention. The user will be described as "user 1-17."

Users (1-17) are civil law combinations of real people from groups of natural persons, corporations, unincorporated divisions and foundations, as well as natural persons capable of playing games, quizzes, competitions, games, tests, etc. Not only does it include groups that are in a contractual relationship, but it also includes groups that each combine.

(cellular phone, mobile phone), beeper, game machine (e.g., Sony Play Station 2, arcade game machine such as a game room), central processing unit (CPU) or central processing such as digital TV As an auxiliary device that can be attached separately to the built-in cycler and perform a function as a physical communication terminal device, such as a device with a built-in Numerical Processing Unit (NPU). , Refers to any machine with the ability to receive.

Offline media are physically shaped media, which include analog recording media such as video, tape, and paper media including books, floppy disks (FDDs), CDs (CD-ROMs), Used as digital data storage media such as digital video discs (DVD), magneto-optical discs (MOD), hard disks (HDDs), RAM, ROMs, packs, photo masks, etc. Refers to any device.

Synchronization means that computer users (1-17) interact with each other online or with online and offline digital content, so that the online and offline content can be connected, combined, merged, It refers to a method provided to the computer user 1-17 through a process of exchanging or reorganizing or transferring information.

The ranking managing program is a program that manages the rankings existing in the personal ranking management space 1-5 of the ranking management center 1-1 or the users 1-17. Software or firmware that lets you do this. That is, the ranking management program stores the ranking related information as a DB in relation to the electronic maps 1-4a, and manages the ranking systematically for each category or by other specific methods.

Digital maps or electronic maps (1-4a) are geographic information (non-geographic concepts, including those in which relative location concepts can be set) that are processed in software and stored in digital form (as opposed to paper, etc.). And three-dimensional or three-dimensional (in the normal computer graphics world) provided to users 1-17 through media (including software) capable of processing digital information, such as computers, to users 1-17. Speaking 3D, including virtual reality space) includes a map provided in the form of GIS (Geographic Information System). It refers to any map in digital form that can be recognized as a map from the outside because it is not a geographic boundary but an actual geographical boundary, and can be displayed or expressed on the display device of the computer user (1-17). will be. More details on the term electronic maps (1-4a) can be found in the section Electronic maps as components.

Information systems and database systems designed to handle geo-reference data and geographic coordinate values of indicators are called geographic information systems, and land information systems (LIS) and urban information systems. (Urban Information Systems (UIS), Automated Mapping (AM)) and Facility Management (FM). In other words, it refers to the integration of hardware, software, geographic data, and human resources built to efficiently collect, store, update, process, analyze, and express all types of geographic information. The GIS map is an important example of an electronic map in the present invention.

It defines the surrounding (8-1) and the target category (8-2). The destination category is a set of categories for which the user wants to know the results of the ranking, etc., and the surroundings are a higher category surrounding the category or a parallel category set having a level equivalent to the destination category. For example, when Sillim-dong in Gwanak-gu is the target category, the surrounding Bongcheon-dong and the whole Gwanak-gu, Seoul, Korea, etc. become the surroundings.

In electronic maps (1-4a) or geographic information systems, the objects on the earth are spatial objects in physical space, which are points, shapes (lines, colors, color blur, etc.). ), Shapes, colors, polygons or areas, or combinations thereof. These points, shapes, shapes, colors, polygons, or faces, or combinations thereof, may be represented by geographical objects. do.

An information set is a collection of two or more relevant pieces of information. Among the information sets, there are those that can give a relative position concept by relations, including a part of something, and applicability of subordinate concepts. In such cases, the concept of a conceptual map may be introduced to organize or display the information set (including visual display and audio display). For example, a site map frequently found on an Internet site is an easy example of a concept map, and an organizational chart / organization of a government or organization is also an example of a concept map of the present invention. This is illustrated in FIG. 7. These conceptual maps consist of display points, shapes, shapes, colors, polygons, faces, text, or images, or combinations thereof, which have little or no correlation with the physical space on the surface of the earth. geographical object). Geographic objects and non-geographic objects become location objects 10-1, as defined in the present invention.

Virtuality is the amount that the destination category has to do with the physical entity and the degree of 1: 1 correspondence. In other words, although the administrative category is completely 1: 1 in correspondence with the physical entity, the virtual group has a low virtuality, but the group meeting in the virtual space has high conceptuality because there is a conceptual entity but no physical entity. College departments have spaces such as certain buildings, but the group has more than physical space, so virtual images are higher than administrative district categories.

Categories in administrative divisions are called vertical categories because they are vertically layered.

Spatial areas selected by users (1-17) (other countries, streets, school buildings, apartments, etc.) and conceptual groups (company, department, class, student number, grade, alumni, employees, A category that is impossible or ineffective to display on a map, such as the position or rank of a social living unit such as a deputy, manager, or general manager, may be a category, and these are called 'horizontal categories'.

You can think of a category called a field. Examples include specific games (e.g. StarCraft), quizzes in certain fields (e.g. current affairs), competitions in certain areas (e.g. outside maths), and specific exams (e.g. TOEIC). Can be.

The time category may be one year unit, season unit, January unit, one week unit, one day unit, or full time unit.

A network refers to a wired or wireless communication network.

Offline refers to the state of not being connected on the network as a (relative) concept of online.

Online comprehensively defines the environment of all types of network terminals (including mobile, geographic information systems, and satellite receivers such as transmitters and receivers using communication satellites) that can be connected to the network. Network is a concept that encompasses internet, intranet, extranet and various wired / wireless data communication networks used as a means of transmitting digital data in society. First, wired internet network through cable, ADSL, PSTN, ISDN, powerline internet, and second IMT. Includes wireless data networks such as telecommunication networks provided by broadband mobile operators such as 2000, IS 95-A, IS 95-B, IS 95-C, CDMA 2000, GSM, UMTS, and medium-range wireless networks such as 802.11b. It includes the connection method such as the combination of short distance data communication technology such as Bluetooth, IrDA, and wired internet network, or the combination of short range wireless communication and broadband / medium range wireless network. can do.

Local means local and is not a relative size, but a relative concept. For example, if there is an organizational system for geographic areas such as Orient, Country, City, County, Town, East, Gu, Li, Myeon, Tong, Van, etc. The unit has meaning as local. A region is represented by a local area, and locality or locality refers to a local or local attribute.

The ranking management center 1-1 is a basic data 1-2a for receiving ranking, receiving, inputting, collecting, storing, processing, processing, analyzing, updating, displaying, transmitting, outputting, and outputting data or information related to the ranking. -17 refers to a virtual space on the network that serves one or two or more of management and user-related information processing. The ranking management center 1-1 exists in a server in the case of a normal server / client method, and may exist in a personal computer (including a peer) of a network accessor in the case of a P2P or GRID method.

The personal ranking management space 1-5 refers to a virtual space on the network for a specific user 1-17 in which ranking related information is provided for each user 1-17. This personal ranking management space (1-5) may be a personal space for each user (1-17) in the ranking management center (1-1), the own space that exists independently of the ranking management center (1-1) A virtual space under management. For example, if ranking related information is transmitted from the ranking management center 1-1 to the e-mail address correspondence virtual space of each user 1-17, the e-mail address correspondence virtual space is the personal ranking management space 1. -5)

As content displaying ranking and ranking-related information (when there is content containing information on the provider 13-4, such as a product, and the like, when ranking-related information exists in relation to the content, the product, etc. The content containing information about the supplier 13-4 may also be digital content (13-2) or ranking display content (13-1) for displaying a product or the like.), Digital content (digitization) Text, images (images are temporally linked representations of images, including stereoscopic images), sound, and analogue content (texts displayed in analog form, images (images are temporally linked representations of images) , Stereoscopic images), and sound). Specifically, for the purpose of displaying the ranking information, the content corresponding to the specific ranking-related information includes various decorations (10-6), colors, sounds, items (decoration, packaging, badges, other symbols), avatars, slogans, flags, Refers to content consisting of marks, patterns, symbols, letters or figures, or a combination of two or more thereof.

FIG. 13 shows an e-commerce model for the case where there is a rights counterpart, and the "supplier 13-4," such as a product, which is presented here, refers to a person who supplies goods and the like regardless of whether a rights counterpart exists. Hereinafter, for convenience of technology, other elements related to e-commerce are also represented in the form of "13-X", but they are also whether or not there is a rights counterpart.

A virtual space on a network where a game is played, a game is performed, or various types of results are stored, processed, transmitted, and brokered, is called an 'online game event space'. The person who provides, manages, and controls this space is called an online game event provider. The virtual space on the network where the evaluation of products, etc. is made or the evaluation information is input, stored, processed, transmitted and brokered is called an 'online appraising event space'.

Both of these are referred to as online event spaces 1-15, which are usually largely virtual spaces on a network. This is especially true when games are hosted on servers on the network and the resulting data also occurs on the servers. However, when the computer of the user 1-17 is connected to the ranking management center 1-1 by a network, the computer of the user 1-17 may be the online event space 1-15. In particular, the user 1-17 plays a specific game or the like contained in a CD-ROM or the like (including a downloaded one or the like), and the result of the execution is directly or virtually online in relation to this game or the like. It is possible to directly transfer the ranking basic data 1-2a for the game or the like directly to the ranking management center 1-1 by a specific routine on a program inherent in the game or the like without passing through the space. The user who can transmit the ranking basic data 1-2a to the ranking management center 1-1 without the evaluation information on the product or the like immediately or via an online virtual space thereof. The program on the computer of 17 can be transferred directly from the computer of the user 1-17 to the ranking management center 1-1. Since there is no server concept when a game or the like proceeds in a P2P manner, the computer of the user 1-17 and the ranking management center 1-1 may be directly connected. The online event space 1-15 may be legally and substantially the same subject as the ranking management center 1-1.

An offline game event space refers to a space in a computer that is offline, where a game occurs, a performance result such as a game (2-2) occurs, or stores and processes various types of results. The person who provides, manages, and controls this space is called an offline game event provider. For example, when the user 1-17 plays a game with a computer (an offline PC game, a video game machine such as Play Station 1, an arcade game machine, etc.), the computer defined by the present invention becomes an offline game event space. Its own or embedded program becomes an offline game event provider. In this case, the computer of the user 1-17 may be connected to the ranking management center 1-1 through a network to exchange information, but a game may not occur in the online event space 1-15. It is only. Exceptionally, the P2P method is classified into the concept of the online event space 1-15.

A questionnaire for evaluating a product or the like and a medium for evaluating an input means is called an 'offline appraising event space'.

Refers to an area (especially where geographic territorial concepts are included) or category in which the user is in first place or in a higher ranking. In the following meaning, 'dominant area 11-1' and 'domination category 11-1' ) 'Is used.

The object of ranking is essentially anything that can be ranked. The ordering can be classified as follows.

First, it is game type. These include games, quizzes, competitions, games, tests, etc. that are performed online or offline / real time non-real time. The results of their performance or activity can be won, scored, quantified or quantified to become the basis for determining the ranking.

Second is the evaluation form. Evaluation of goods or services (whether paid or free, including digital content), natural or artificial facilities, people (including corporate or non-corporate divisions, foundations, associations or other organizations; A third party's evaluation of one action or the outcome of that action, or the aggregate of time-accumulated actions, may be the basis for determining the ranking.

The game type targets the result of the user's own behavior (including the grouped user 1-17's self. To be the target.

For reference, the ranking objects can be classified as follows.

First, those that compete with each other do not act on each other, but appear as objective performances or obscure superiority by subjective evaluators and their own judgment.

Second, the superiority is divided through close interactions with the so-called confrontation. The goal is to knock down each other first or hit more opponents and hurt them, or win the opponent by achieving higher achievements in one space and one event.

Third, absolute evaluations are possible, and results are comparable regardless of their will. For example, Toefl scores are played daily and are not a confrontation with the opponent, but result in a score that is comparable between the parties and others.

Fourth, when the evaluation of environmental beautification in elementary school is possible, the scoring is possible and the comparison is possible by making evaluation criteria, assigning detailed scorecards and assigning weights. You can play a kind of game to cultivate the character and make a score based on the character level, upgrade level, and the number of items collected.

Fifth, there is a comparison between groups and between groups. Comparison between game teams or within one game team is possible. Students can compare their grades in high school A, and compare them with high school B in terms of average, high score, low score, and selection group score.

Sixth, if there are goals that need to be achieved, how quickly they are achieved and how close they are to the current goal are compared. When there is a diet program released by a specific company, the results of comparing the current status of each user (1-17) achievement goal, and processing the difference or data about them may be the target of ranking occurrence. .

Seventh, the statistically comparable ones include how many audiences a movie has attracted, and the number of votes received as a result of the election.

The evaluation of the object can be evaluated on an objective basis or on a subjective basis, and the evaluation results are sometimes compared with others after playing a game or taking a test. In some cases, the evaluation results may be referred to.

Information about the user 1-17 itself is the physical location and conceptual position of the user 1-17, such as the address (administrative, postal, IP, location on the virtual map, category, etc.) of the user 1-17. ), A location in the virtual space, a user-designating position or place), the personal information related to the user 1-17, and the group to which the user 1-17 belongs. Any information set or mass for the user 1-17 that includes all or part of the information, the type of game of the user 1-17, etc., and the ranking-related accumulation information of the user 1-17. Say This is described in detail in the 'User (1-17) Management' section.

Information about the user (1-17) itself and the result data of the performance or activity of the user (1-17) game, quiz, competition, game, test, performance of the task, etc. Alternatively, the data that can be digitized becomes the ranking basic data 1-2.

For example, as follows. The result of a performance or activity, such as a game, quiz, competition, game, test, or performance of a task, refers to any material that the game's administration records, measures, or judges in relation to the game. For example, total scores in online car games, scores for each course, area, win or lose in competitive games, hit or miss in quizzes, points scored in competitions (including numerical values, evaluation scores), win or lose in matches, etc. Results (including number of standings, winnings, golf, etc.), scores on exams (successes missed several times, scores earned on several questions, or for each part of TOEIC (parts 1-7) Scores, etc.).

Based on these data, various kinds of rankings are derived by analyzing, processing, statisticalizing, using geographic information, and classifying subjects (hereinafter referred to as 'process').

The evaluation information about the product includes overall appraising information and itemized appraising information. The user 1-17 inputs a score such as how many points the user has for the entire product, etc. (including grouping and stepped score input), number / right / US / quantity / value, excellent / Pre-assessment information is input / selection data in categorization / menuization methods such as very good / good / bad, satisfied / unsatisfied, recommendable / not recommendable, and pros / cons. For each individual question or individual item, the score input and the categorized input / selection data of the user 1-17 are referred to as evaluation information for each item.

One example is a content set that leads to input of evaluation information (2-3) for a product or the like, or a questionnaire asking about a plurality of items for a specific new product. (hierarchy) (that is, if there are classifications of root, main, and sub), the rating information for the parent content set can be the overall rating information relative to the rating information for the child content set. have.

Taking game software as an example, it is as follows. Let's say the item evaluation information is design, scenario completion, network support, speed, etc. in the whole game, and the character completion degree, user (1-17) interface, 3D graphics, etc. are the item evaluation information of the design. At this time, the satisfaction level for the entire game may be the highest overall evaluation information, and the item rating for design becomes a sub for the entire game, but for the character completeness, the user (1-17) interface, 3D graphics, and the like. (main)

The ranking management center 1-1 and the online event space 1-15 are directly or by-pass networked. The former may request the latter for data, the latter may request the former, or both may interact in real time. This is simply referred to as 'inter-data request / transmission'.

This is the case when both are legally or substantially the same subject. Although they may be the same subject, they may be different computers, or they may be different virtual spaces on the same computer. This is especially the case when Microsoft's dot net or sun's alleged 'network is a computer' or P2P becomes unclear the ownership of the resources or the right to use the network. More importantly in the case. This is because there is only one type of game (Lineage, etc.), one game is legally operated by one game (battle net), or one game is executed by (TOEIC, Shisa English Co., Ltd.). It becomes more important when the ranking management center 1-1 can be operated.

First, users 1-17 access the online event space 1-15. There is usually a login process for users 1-17 in network games, online PC games, online quizzes, competitions, exams, and the like. In other words, most of the games you can actually participate in the game must be logged in. This may be true of the evaluation event space as well, but in terms of its nature (the former is related to one's behavior and the latter is related to one's evaluation of one's non-self), the log-in demand is low. In some cases, the game can be performed without logging in (i.e., without the user (1-17) identification process) and evaluation information can be input. In the present invention, this step is collectively referred to as an access concept. .

Secondly, when the performance result (2-2) of the game of the user (1-17) or the like occurs or the input of the evaluation information (2-3) is completed, this information is transferred between the ranking management centers (1-1). Data request / transmission occurs. At this time, some or all of the performance result or evaluation information may not be transmitted (2-4) to the ranking management center according to the selection of the user 1-17. Thereafter, the data processing process of the ranking management center 1-1 exists.

Where both are legal or substantially different subjects, firstly, users (1-17) are managed by other subjects, and second, there are various forms of data request / transmission between each other on different computers for the protection of personal information. Can be. Problems that arise at this point are first, whether the user (1-17) maintains the same identity, when and how to transmit the performance result (2-2) of the game or the like, and second, the user (1- The approach to ranking information of 17) is different.

Here, only the concept is mentioned and described in detail in the interaction section of the user 1-17. First, a game portal type refers to a person who collects a game of himself or another (game provider, contents provider) and provides a game service to users (1-17). Second, the individual agency type means that the ranking service is performed by the subject of the online event space (1-15) and another subject on a 1: 1 basis for the individual game. Third, the ranking portal type means that access of the online game event of the user 1-17 takes place in the portal providing the ranking related service.

If it is not the same subject, the following process occurs.

First, a connection exists in the online event space 1-15 of the user 1-17, and the result data of the game or the like is transmitted 2-4 to an external ranking management center. In this case, the online event space 1-15 may have indicative contents such as a hyperlink that guarantees a connection to the ranking management center 1-1.

Secondly, the external ranking management center 1-1 processes the data and guarantees access when the user 1-17 acts on the indicated content.

The transmission approval process of all or part of the users 1-17 may exist in the input of the performance result 2-2 of the game or the like. If only part is approved, only part is sent. This is because, in particular, those who lose in games, poor grades, or who have dropped out of the competition may wish that their performances (2-2), etc. of their games are not reflected in the ranking information. If access to a game or the like is approved in advance during the registration process of other users (1-17), it shall be governed by the law unless it is against the law (such as the Personal Information Protection Act). When transmitted, identity information of the user 1-17 (which includes the user 1-17 number essentially, password information is optional) is transmitted together.

The transmission of the performance result 2-2 of the game or the like may occur in non real time. In this case, when the execution result is collected and transmitted in a certain time unit (update cycle, etc.), or when the online event space (1-15) first processes the execution result and then sends it to the ranking management center (2-4). May occur. In this case, the approval of the user 1-17 may also be involved, which belongs to the manual case.

Online games and the like can be broadly divided into games that occur between users 1-17 and 1-17 and games that occur between users 1-17 and a computer. Games such as StarCraft support both, but they can be conceptually divided since they are performing either one based on a specific time point of a specific user (1-17).

This is the case when the opponent such as a game is the user 1-17 when referring to the user 1-17. In this case, the user (1-17) is an opponent of a game such as a lineage, an online game such as StarCraft or Diablo, and quizzes, competitions, tests, and games provided by other online event providers. In this case, the server provides only minimal functions, such as the presence of a server as an online event space (1-15) / provider (server type), the need for a server (gnutella type), or the discovery of an opponent to play a game. There is a P2P type that encompasses the napster type.

User (1-17) Vs. In the case of the user 1-17 game, there may be a server where the online event provider exists. The server serves to provide a virtual space in which game matching or users 1-17 play. In this case, the ranking basic data 1-2 may be transmitted by the online event provider to the ranking management center 1-1. If there is a plurality of online event providers for one game, ranking basic data 1-2 may be transmitted between them.

In the P2P type network configuration, each peer has the maximum independence and authority, and there is a server that does not exist or has a minimum function. The contents constituting the contents of the game are inherent in the computer of each user 1-17, and only the control information such as signal information and operation such as the position or address of the object for the game, the movement, etc. Exchanged through In this case, the ranking basic data 1-2-2 is transmitted (2-4) to a ranking management center by a program such as a game of each peer computer.

A game or the like occurring in the offline game event space becomes a game between the user 1-17 and the computer. This includes offline PC games, video game machines such as Play Station, and games played in arcade game machines. In this case, each computer is networked with the ranking management center 1-1, and each of the users 1-17 can manually exchange the ranking basic data 1-2a by sending and receiving the ranking basic data 1-2a. Half-online, with no need to enter), even if each computer has no connection to the Ranking Management Center (1-1), or if there is a physical network connection. Manual inputs (1-18, 2-2b, etc.) in which a program such as a game cannot send and receive ranking basic data (1-2a), so that the user 1-17 must manually input the ranking basic data (1-2a). or 2-3b) (manual input). Arcade game machines in the game room are usually completely off-line, and if you are playing StarCraft against a computer, you will be on-line.

In this case, the computer of the user 1-17 transmits the ranking basic data 1-2-2 to the ranking management center irrespective of the online game event space (2-4). For example, the ranking basic data (1-2a) generated as a result of performing a game (2-2) of the user (1-17) after distributing the game or the like on a CD-ROM to the user (1-17) and ranking the result is ranked. It can be transferred to the computer / server of the distributor having the management center (1-1).

In the offline state, the user 1-17 directly sends the ranking basic data 1-2a or the result of processing the data generated as a result of performing a game or the like (2-2) to the ranking management center 1-1, or It connects to the ranking management center 1-1 and inputs it manually (1-18, 2-2b, or 2-3b). In this case, a verification or authentication process may be performed to determine whether the input is true.

The goods and the like that are the subject of the present invention include products or services (whether paid or free, including digital content), natural or artificial facilities, people (corporate or non-corporate divisions, foundations, associations, and other organizations). Or, it refers to a non-self object such as a person's action or a result of the action, a total of time-accumulated actions, and the collection method of the ranking basic data 1-2 may be different for each object.

In the case of a product or the like, data requests / transmissions are generally generated between a plurality of online event spaces 1-15 and one or a plurality of ranking management centers 1-1 in order to secure reliability of ranking information. Since the evaluation is usually for a subject other than the self, the evaluation information is transmitted anonymously to the Ranking Management Center 1-1 even if there is no login of the user 1-17 to the online event space 1-15 or the login exists. Many cases occur. At this time, the IP address or input time of the user 1-17 in order to prevent the transmission of the evaluation information plural times due to the unjust purpose of the user 1-17 (especially in the evaluation of goods or services). Can also be sent together.

The ranking management center 1-1 and the online event space 1-15 are directly or by-pass networked. The former may request the latter for data, the latter may request the former, or both may interact in real time. This is simply referred to as 'inter-data request / transmission'.

This is the case when both are legally or substantially the same subject. Although they may be the same subject, they may be different computers, or they may be different virtual spaces on the same computer.

First, users 1-17 access the online evaluation event space. In some cases, the game can be performed without logging in (i.e., without the user (1-17) identification process) and evaluation information can be input. In the present invention, this step is collectively referred to as an access concept. .

Secondly, when the performance result (2-2) of the game of the user (1-17) or the like occurs or the input of the evaluation information (2-3) is completed, this information is transferred between the ranking management centers (1-1). Data request / transmission occurs. At this time, some or all of the performance result or evaluation information may not be transmitted (2-4) to the ranking management center according to the selection of the user 1-17. Thereafter, the data processing process of the ranking management center 1-1 exists.

Where both are legal or substantially different subjects, firstly, users (1-17) are managed by other subjects, and second, there are various forms of data request / transmission between each other on different computers for the protection of personal information. Can be. In this case, first, when, how, and under what conditions, the results of performing the evaluation, such as maintaining the identity of the user (1-17), evaluation, etc. are transmitted. Second, the ranking of the user (1-17) is determined. The approach to beams is different.

If it is not the same subject, the following process occurs.

First, a connection exists in the online event space 1-15 of the user 1-17, and the result data such as the evaluation is transmitted to an external ranking management center 2-4. In this case, the online event space 1-15 may have indicative contents such as a hyperlink that guarantees a connection to the ranking management center 1-1.

Secondly, the external ranking management center 1-1 processes the data and guarantees access when the user 1-17 acts on the indicated content.

Transmission of performance results such as evaluation may occur in non real time. In this case, when the execution result is collected and transmitted in a certain time unit (update cycle, etc.), or when the online event space (1-15) first processes the execution result and then sends it to the ranking management center (2-4). May occur. In this case, the approval of the user 1-17 may also be involved, which belongs to the manual case.

In the online evaluation event space, there are various contents for evaluation (for example, a questionnaire in a virtual space), and when there is an input or selection of the user 1-17, the ranking management center 1 The ranking basic data (1-2a) is transmitted to -1). At this time, the transmission approval process of the user 1-17 may be additionally intervened and may be transmitted only if there is a transmission approval.

Evaluation information can be input via a personal mobile communication device. In particular, when making a payment through a personal mobile communication device, evaluation information may be input for goods or services received by the user 1-17 after the initial, middle or end of a payment routine. At this time, if there is an input of evaluation information (2-3) at the beginning or the middle of the settlement, the discount is available. If there is an input of evaluation information (2-3) at any time, incentives such as mileage or reserve The benefits can go back. Incentives such as discounts, miles, and reserves can be managed by the Ranking Management Center (1-1).

The user 1-17 may input evaluation information during the process of consumption, use, experience, judgment, etc. of the product, and the evaluation information may be input after these processes are terminated.

In the offline state, the user 1-17 directly sends the ranking basic data 1-2a or the result of processing the data generated as a result of performing a game or the like (2-2) to the ranking management center 1-1, or It connects to the ranking management center 1-1 and inputs it manually (1-18, 2-2b, or 2-3b). In this case, a verification or authentication process may be performed to determine whether the input is true.

The administrator of the ranking management center (1-1) selects a list of targets for the already existing targets, and selects a person or a set of persons that are considered to be able to use or use the targets or are statistically meaningful. There is a method of accumulating DB regarding ranking by selecting an unspecified number and conducting a direct survey. A direct survey is any off-line survey that allows you to list the rankings directly or assign appropriate scores to the subjects in each list to determine the rankings through their score processing. Such investigations may be carried out by the manager of the management system or by its agent.

When a user 1-17 (or user 1-17) of a game or application object transfers the evaluation information about the ranking to the ranking management center 1-1, a ranking DB is accumulated. It can be divided into two. First, after the user (1-17) experiences the application target, the subjective evaluation information based on the experience is delivered to the system administrator, and the system administrator processes the score to rank the system administrator. Second, the system administrator Evaluation information acquisition system that lists the list of evaluation targets, describes detail items for evaluation, and provides criteria for evaluation so that users (1-17) can make objective evaluation easily. When the user 1-17 is connected to (1-9) and evaluated in accordance with a predetermined procedure, there is a method in which this is automatically accumulated in the ranking DB 1-11a.

The first implementation of subjective feedback can be done by using the usual means of communication, such as direct visits, letters, and telephones, to the management entity of the management system. Such communication means also include any electronic communication means such as e-mail, instant messenger, note, SMS, Wap Push, mail service on wireless network, and writing on bulletin board.

In the case where the second objective evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 is provided, the user 1-17 may use the terminal device (cell phone) at the place where the object is used immediately after use of the application object or at any desired place after the accumulation of the use experience. And a ranking management center via a network using a terminal, a laptop, a PC, a network computer, an electronic card, an IC card, an arbitrary terminal device used for an end user on a network of various digital terminals, etc.) -1) access to the evaluation information acquisition system (1-9) and performs the evaluation according to the procedure of the evaluation information acquisition system (1-9).

The reason for having such an action by the person providing the evaluation information accumulated in the ranking DB is as follows. After using or experiencing the evaluation object, the satisfaction of the evaluation object may be particularly well known and praised and shared with others.On the contrary, when the dissatisfaction degree is particularly blamed or demands correction, and wants to share it with others, The user 1-17 is to serve as a self-motivated information provider. In order to facilitate this, the user (1-17) presents the contact information (contact method) to the administrator or the management entity of the information acquisition system so as to facilitate the information transfer after using the object immediately or the user (1- 17) to provide information at any convenient time. An example of a contact number is a telephone number that is suggested by the bus user 1-17 to notify a user of inconvenience or illegal driving. An e-mail address, a messenger account ID, a homepage, a phone page, and the like are used as contacts. When the administrator of the ranking system knows the users (1-17) who use the application or can extract statistically meaningful groups, the administrator can call or e-mail these groups of users (1-17). By presenting the evaluation method and contact information using -mail, mail in the wireless network, push service, etc., the group of users (1-17) can be encouraged to provide evaluation information regarding the ranking.

The performance result 2-2 of the game or the like may be transmitted 2-4 directly from the computer of the user 1-17 to the ranking management center without involvement of the online event space 1-15. This process occurs largely as follows.

First, as in a P2P-based game, a game occurs without an online event space 1-15 corresponding to a server. At this time, a program or a communication module for a game or the like must exist in the computer of the user 1-17, and part or all of the user 1-17 is automatically (when the game program is automatically transmitted). Alternatively, the result information of the performance of the game or the like can be transmitted to the external ranking management center 1-1 according to the selection of the user. In this case, in the P2P scheme, since the computer of the user 1-17 serves as a server of the client / server model, the computer of the user 1-17 may be regarded as the online event space 1-15.

The second case is related to the guarantee of anonymity. The online event space 1-15 is likely to have a lot of information about the user 1-17 through a process such as login. In this case, the user 1-17 sends the ranking information directly to the ranking management center 1-1 instead of sending performance information of the game through the online event space 1-15.

Third, the online event space 1-15 does not directly or indirectly provide ranking-related services. In this case, the user 1-17 may directly transmit the performance result 2-2 of his or her game to the ranking management center 1-1 to check his ranking. At this time, the ranking management center (1-1) may optionally contact the online event space (1-15) to ensure the reliability of the input data and ranking, the result of performing the authentication of the online event space (1-15) May require data.

In this case, for the ranking management center 1-1, the transmission follows an e-mail method or other promised transmission protocol. At this time, information about the device (1-17) or a device capable of recognizing the computer of the user (1-17) (device, ID, machine number such as a game machine, and other unique number for identification purposes) is also included. This information can then be sent and the login process can be replaced or automated based on this information.

Offline refers to a case in which a game or the like occurs offline or a product evaluation occurs through an offline medium. Offline is more non-real time than online, and the data entry process is often manual.

When a game or the like occurs off-line, it is divided into two types according to whether or not a game or the like is performed on a computer medium in relation to the present invention.

First, a game or the like occurs in a computer medium. The user 1-17 or an operator such as a game may transmit the ranking basic data 1-2 through the manual input 1-18, 2-2b, or 2-3b to the ranking management center 1-1. have. Secondly, games are purely offline.

In order to generate ranking information using a computer, a person or a person substitutes the result of the game and the like. For example, in a baseball game at Jamsil Playground, the basic data must be entered manually by humans (1-18, 2-2b, or 2-3b). These include games, quizzes, competitions, games, tests, etc., which are performed in baseball online or offline / real time non-real time. The results of their performance or activity can be won, scored, quantified or quantified to become the basis for determining the ranking.

In order to give a ranking based on the user 1-17 to the performance of the user 1-17, etc. in a game, information about the user 1-17 is often necessary. That is, after the selection of the address or location of the user 1-17, the ranking can be calculated and displayed based on the address or location. Since the evaluation of the object that is not self is the essence in a product, etc., the specificity of the object that is not self is only a problem, and information on the evaluator may not be essential. Information about the user (1-17) itself may include location information such as personal information, address, etc., and the game in which the user (1-17) is selectively or mandatory (ranking management center (1-1) or otherwise interacting with it). Information about the user (1-17) himself / herself, which is inputted when there is a demand of an online or offline operating system related to a back or a product.

The user 1-17 may specify himself by his / her user 1-17 number (ID) / password (PW) or nickname, etc., and this information may be used for the user 1-17 itself. It is managed with information. The user (1-17) number (ID) / password (PW) may be specified as one or more than one for the ranking management center 1-1, and one for each area to be ranked for each ranking. Or a plurality can be given.

Ranking is a concept determined relatively by category, and users 1-17 input information about their given location (address, location on electronic map 1-4a, location on concept map, etc.) or selected location. Needs to be. This may have already been input during the registration process of the user 1-17, but the user 1-17 may select and input various locations in addition to his physical location (address, etc.). If there is no input of the location information of the user 1-17, the process is as follows.

First, if the IP address of the user (1-17) is known (transmission of data on the Internet is by protocol, and in the TCP / IP system, all data packets have an IP address of a sender or a receiver). to be. At this time, if the ranking management center 1-1 knows that the IP address is not correct for the user 1-17 but can specify a certain area (for example, if it is certain that it is Seoul but does not know which district) It is possible to temporarily set the largest range (in this example, Seoul, not Korea) within the limits that can be specified. Information that manages the IP address and the exact location of the user (1-17) is usually owned by an Internet Service Provider (ISP). Contact this IS to determine the exact location of the user (1-17). It may be. Those who provide services such as ADSL / HDSL usually use a variable IP address system, but even if multiple users (1-17) are connected, the minimum limit of addresses common to them can be set, so within that range. The position can be specified. The method using the IP address may utilize location information that is identified during the registration process of the user 1-17 of the user 1-17.

Second, in the case of the personal mobile communication system, since the location of the user 1-17 is usually tracked in units of cells, if the cell coincides with the geographical object, the geographic object is defined as: When overlapping with two or more geographical objects, the geographical objects including all of the overlapping objects are allocated.

The overall information on the user's personality such as age, education, career, and gender constitutes the user's personal information 2-1, which is an important criterion in determining the ranking (2-8). That is, when there are performance results for the same game, the ranking may be derived for each user's personal information (2-1), such as age ranking, education ranking, and gender ranking. That is, even if one minimum geographic category is specified, a detailed ranking based on the personal information can be derived again therein. The finer the category, i.e., the smaller the number of users 1-17 to be compared, the higher the level of ranking (the ranking of the ranking increases).

Various information may be input to the user 1-17 in addition to the location information and the personal information, which may be a criterion of the ranking determination policy of the ranking management center 1-1.

When there is an input of location information or personal information of the user 1-17 in a product or the like, this may be valuable statistics or marketing data independently or in relation to external data such as external statistical data. For example, the evaluation information of Gwanak-gu female consumers in the 30s for a particular product A itself forms economically meaningful information or news. In addition, the information analyzed and compared with the evaluation information of female consumers in their 30s in Gangnam-gu can be economically meaningful information or news by itself or in combination with external data on average household income in Gwanak-gu and Gangnam-gu. have. Such information may be sold externally to the press or A commodity officials, and the revenue generated here is transferred to the users (1-17) who entered the valuation information either afterwards or in some cases statistically evaluated. Can also be distributed.

When the user 1-17 providing the ranking information accesses the ranking management center 1-1 and provides input or data for evaluation or the like, whether or not the personal information related to the user 1-17 is provided. Therefore, it is divided into anonymous user (1-17) system and named user (1-17) system. Named user (1-17) system is a system that can input the personal information of user (1-17) and later update it when joining such ranking management center (1-1) or electronic resident card, IC When accessing the ranking management center 1-1 through a terminal device such as a card or a mobile phone, the minimum human information can be passed.

In the case of an anonymous user (1-17), the evaluation information may be duplicated because the identity information about the evaluator is unknown, which may raise questions about the justification of the sample population. If the credibility of the evaluation by the evaluator with question of identity is raised, this is also a problem of the reliability of ranking based on it. Thus, this anonymous input of evaluation is applicable when the user 1-17 is not very sensitive to the ranking for that application target. If the number of evaluators is too high to ensure the reliability of the statistical theory and empirical evaluation, or if the cost of the evaluator's operation rises above the profits gained from the ranking, such an anonymous evaluation cannot be made by manipulating imaginary evaluators. It is possible to secure the reliability of.

Such a premise can be realized in many ways. For example, it is possible when the place where the evaluator makes the evaluation or the electronic implementation device is secured by the ranking management center or the organization that ensures the objective credibility so as not tolerate the domination or manipulation of the user 1-17. Alternatively, even when the user (1-17) who is the target of the evaluation physically owns the terminal device for evaluation, the evaluation is performed only by inputting by personalized and official electronic property such as an electronic resident card or credit card. It is possible to make a structure so that it is impossible to input the electronic resident card, credit card, etc. of the users (1-17) who are registered in advance so that it will not be effective in the evaluation system. Even if it is not, the evaluation system stores it in a separate storage space as a DB to check daily, weekly, and annual inputs, and if the number is too large, create an algorithm to exclude from the evaluation input to prevent the manipulated evaluation in advance. have.

In addition, by utilizing a portable communication terminal (including a mobile phone, or a digital TV capable of bidirectional communication), the concept of an abstract source as an anonymous entity can be utilized. That is, a unique number is assigned to a CPU such as a mobile phone, which is assigned to the owner of a mobile phone, such as one per mobile phone. When evaluation information is transmitted to the receiver by an owner, the evaluation information is anonymous. It has high reliability as a source of. For example, when performing a calculation after receiving a service at a coffee shop, the user may input his or her evaluation information to a reception device of the coffee shop using a mobile phone or the like. This is particularly useful when making small payments with a mobile phone. The evaluation information can be transmitted along with the approval of the small payment or after the approval. At this time, the information about the amount of payment and the evaluation information may go to the same place (when the operating subjects are the same), and go to the subject managing the evaluation information via one subject, or immediately passed to the evaluation information managing subject. have. At this time, the side that accepts the evaluation information, the owner corresponding to the unique number, such as a mobile phone can compensate for the input of the evaluation information (2-3), and also through the input evaluation information to update the DB, It can be reflected in the ranking information.

In particular, when a unique number is attached to various input devices, if the focus is on a one-to-one correspondence between the unique number and the owner of the device, and the owner's information is present in the registration process of the unique number, the unique number Since it may have a kind of named property, the configuration of the following named user (1-17) system is also applicable. That is, the recognition of the unique number itself has a similar property to the input of the ID, and accessing the network through such a terminal already has the characteristics of Log on or Log in.

Named user (1-17) system can be divided into two cases. First, a user 1-17 of an application target who can play an evaluator role on a homepage or a virtual space managed by the ranking management center 1-1 first registers and is given his or her account ID. This ID can be used later when the user 1-17 uses the application target and inputs evaluation data. Second, the user (1-17) who has not previously subscribed to the ranking management center (1-1) uses the application target and then inputs the evaluation information, and the identification information of the evaluator is transmitted to the ranking management center (1-1). This is the case when the identity is secured by the named user (1-17) and the evaluator. The identity information of the user (1-17) can be input to the terminal device at the time of evaluation, such as name, age, address, educational background, and gender, or to the ranking evaluation system from personalized property such as resident card or credit card. The information is sent automatically. At this time, the user (1-17) identity information entered into the resident card is classified into basic information and secret information, etc., only the basic information is automatically transmitted and the secret information is confirmed by the user (1-17). Can only be sent.

In the case of the named user (1-17) system, a system for authentication and compensation management of the user (1-17) that provides evaluation information can be considered to provide a compensation system for providing accurate evaluation information (this will be described in detail later). .) If this is a system capable of obtaining category information for the evaluator, then it can be applied and written as follows. When the ranking of the user (1-17) who is the application target of the ranking comes out in the category to which the user (1-17) belongs, the ranking according to the category is detailed and personalized. In consideration of the fact that the categories may be classified into various types, a detailed ranking of each category of the application target for the detailed user (1-17) category may be defined.

For example, let's say pool A is ranked 31st in Seoul, 8th in Gwanak-gu, and 1st in Sillim-dong. You can see that user A of the application object pool (1-17) changes the ranking according to the category in which A belongs (here, vertical vertical category). An evaluator who provides a ranking on the ranking by using and evaluating the application object. A can be categorized into two categories: A ranks 28th in Seoul, 6th in Gwanak-gu and 1st in Sillim-dong, and 40th in Seoul and 10th in Gwanak-gu for teenagers. May rank second in

Any information about the user 1-17 is stored in the user information DB 1-3. 3 shows a brief example of the user information DB 1-3. Detailed description thereof will be given in the user management section.

If there is collection / transmission of the ranking basic data 1-2, the ranking management center 1-1 stores it as a DB. How to save is based on DB technology. In the case of relational database management system (RDBMS (1-13)), it does not store all processing results, but stores data and then outputs the result in response to a query. .

The processing 2-5 of the ranking basic data 1-2 may be as follows.

When the collected basic information (1-2a) collected and transmitted is stored and there is an external request, the corresponding data is searched, analyzed, synthesized, processed, and output to the outside. In general, the relational database management system (RDBMS) is in principle.

The collected basic data (1-2a) collected / transmitted are processed based on some specific criteria, and then stored and stored in the above-described real-time processing method when there is a request regarding the user (1-17) or other external criteria. How to respond to a request. This is the case when there is no concept of a server like P2P or default ranking information (for example, ranking information without considering any user profile information (2-1) based on city and district) is one example. This is especially useful when

If more than one category can be listed at the bottom, the category is an upper criterion, and a category that can be listed more than two is a lower category. Taking the region as an example, Seoul is a subcategory of the Republic of Korea, and is a supercategory for each district of Seoul. The same is true of criteria / configuration / content.

The regional category and the gender category may be independent categories that are not related to each other, but since the student number category and the age category have statistically significant relations with each other, they are subordinate categories based on the relevance. The same is true of criteria / configuration / content.

* The results of a match in one game can be statistically categorized into various categories / standards / configurations / content. In other words, if the outcome of the game, such as winning or losing, score or game, is determined, the ranking management center (1-1) performs statistical processing based on various categories / standards / configurations / contents based on the result data. Done. The case where a winning rate becomes an object of ranking is demonstrated as an example. In the simplest case, the statistical processing may show the cumulative result of winning and losing as the winning rate, the winning rate for all or each unit, and the winning rate for each condition. I can show you. All or some of these may be displayed (2-9) on the electronic map (1-4a) at the request of the user 1-17 or by default.

In the case of more than 1: 1, the results of games among a plurality of users (1-17) are analyzed by various categories, conditions, units, and conditions input by the users (1-17), and the results are analyzed. It can be shown on the electronic map 1-4a.

For example, as follows. If you think of a strategy simulation game that aims to achieve stage-by-stage missions by selecting and fostering one of several races and expanding its territory like StarCraft, or to fight against allied races through battles with opposing races, there are various games besides simple wins and losses. The result is possible. As a way to measure the achievement of a mission in a game, you can measure resource harvesting, unit creation, territorial expansion, mission completion time, enemy unit killing, and enemy base destruction. The odds for each race selection can be calculated. When the game result is accumulated and managed by game, the tactics, strategy type analysis, and achievement increase / decrease analysis of the game user 1-17 can be performed to enhance the game immersion effect of the user 1-17 and analyze oneself. By doing so, it is possible to improve the skills.

For simple rankings on commerce applications, simple dichotomy such as win / loss (simple comparisons based on specific categories / criteria / configuration / content of product A and product B, eg product A is better in quality than product B) More complex processes can be applied, as well as evaluation by logical logic.

In this case, the evaluation of the ranking user (1-17), user (1-17) group or expert group may be used as the ranking information. For example, as follows. In the simplest case, a user (1-17) using a restaurant may ask a question providing the following example. If the service or product is targeted, it may be dichotomously asked whether it is satisfied or not satisfied, or input evaluation information. More complicatedly, first, excellent, second, very good third, Good Fourth Bad Fifth Very Bad You can segment and ask questions or type them in the same way. The user 1-17 selects and selects one view among them, and the ranking management center 1-1 scores it (for example, 10 points of satisfaction, 1 point of dissatisfaction, etc.) Through the statistical processing of the accumulated score data of the evaluation of the same object, the total score of the restaurant can be known, and the ranking is determined by comparing and analyzing these by category or by attribute.

For more sophisticated evaluations, a series of evaluation questions can be created that asks about the value, utility, and satisfaction of many aspects of the application. When the feedback of the users 1-17 to these evaluation questions is accumulated, more comprehensive evaluation is possible. In the case of restaurants, it is possible to evaluate factors such as employee service, variety of menus, taste of each menu, cleanliness, coziness of seats and dining areas, and delivery time, and overall scores are considered by weight. The information is determined by the users 1-17 using the information, or the ranking management center 1-1 is set in such a manner as to set a weight. Giving criteria such as early weights may vary dynamically.

In addition, the use of questions that ask for multiple aspects can have the additional effect of enabling multiple rankings for each aspect.

For example, if we diversify a set of questions about customers who use Chinese homes and score them collectively or individually, we can say that "The best Chinese customer satisfaction in Sillim-dong is Hui Bin Lu, the most delicious Chinese restaurant in China. It's a pipe. " This can effectively respond to the search of the person who wants to use the ranking information. That is, when the user 1-17 accesses a site or a space where ranking information can be searched in order to find a provider of a desired service or product, the user 1-17 enters a search word containing what he / she wants in a search window or the like. After analyzing the search word in the space, it can query the ranking information DB of itself or the outside and provide the best matching information for the information input by the user 1-17.

At this time, the local information DB corresponding to the access location of the user 1-17 to the IP address of the user 1-17 (all accessors accessing the network have an address on the protocol, and the Internet protocol also has an IP address system. The local area or access point corresponding to the IP address is assigned.) When accessing a mobile phone or the like, using location tracking information of the user 1-17 (for example, calling a mobile phone in Seoul National University). In this case, the base station around Seoul National University can determine the location of the mobile phone user (1-17) within a few kilometers radius, that is, at least in Gwanak-gu (Seoul National University) (Administrative area) can be known.) The approximate location of the user 1-17 can be found, and the user's search term is found through the location. In the input, the user 1-17 can reduce the effort of entering a location. That is, a default position may be automatically selected for the position input. Of course, this default location can be modified to the area or location desired by user 1-17 by input of user 1-17.

As mentioned above, weighting according to various options is an important factor that can have a large impact throughout the ranking.

A ranking display method for a plurality of people when a plurality of people plays a game or the like against a plurality of people can be considered. That is, if a large number of people play a game or the like in one group, the ranking of the group unit may be displayed (2-9) on the electronic map 1-4a by replacing the individual with a group in the above process. That is, in game, etc., each user 1-17 is given an ID in order to specify the user 1-17, and a group is specified only by the group ID. The result of the game or the like is primarily indicated by the ranking of the group or the like, and may also be used as a basic material for determining the ranking of the individual participating in the group. In other words, if the group wins, the result of the win or loss may be reflected on each participant or the like.

The ranking of a particular user 1-17 in various activities or activities online or offline, including a game or the like, depends on the category of the group to be compared. As an easy example, if there is a national-scale exam (eg, a college practice test), the test user's ranking (1-17) can be divided into national ranking, school ranking, and class ranking. That is, the result of one act of testing may be variously analyzed according to the characteristics of the category or group of the same kind or different kind to be compared and may be expressed in various ranks. In other words, the ranking of an action according to the comparison group or category is referred to as the 'relativeity of ranking' or the dependency of ranking on the category.

The concept of this relativity is expanded. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the following is described. Living in an apartment in Sillim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul, Korea, he graduated from Department of C, College of A University, and went to Company D in Jongno-gu, ranking 12345 in Korea and 123456 in the world. Seoul may be ranked 1234th, Gwanak-gu ranked 123th, Sillim-dong overall 12th, and Sillim 9-dong ranked 1st. In addition, the users (1-17) of their own A university ranking 2345, B college ranking 234, C department ranking 23, and the same ranking between D student number 2 May be up. In addition, the user (1-17) occupies the fifth place in his company E selected by him, and becomes the first place in the deputy salary.

That is, since the ranking is relative, the numerical value of the ranking will change even though the same ranking procedure is applied depending on how the comparative group is selected. In general, the smaller the size of the comparison group in the same series, the higher the ranking.

The ranking of these users 1-17 and the like are given and selected or given to each item of various activities or activities online or offline, including games selected by the user 1-17, etc., It can be made into DB by using the result data of various activities or activities on or off-line including games by created category.

Determination of the initial ranking (5-1) means that the initial ranking is determined for a specific subcategory. The ranking of the whole time can be conceptualized by dividing the ranking into a decision of the initial ranking (5-1) and the variation of the ranking (5-3), and based on this, the actual ranking system can be maintained and managed. That is, the first ranking is determined, and then a new ranking can be made by reflecting the addition (5-2) of various ranking basic data. In other words, the fluctuation of the ranking 5-3 is that, in most cases, evaluation of games, products, etc., which are the targets, is necessary for repeatability of games, etc. and repeatability of evaluation of goods, etc. In other words,

First, the process of creating a ranking for a game or the like that proceeds online can be summarized into two ways.

First, in the preemptive form, the first person (5-4) who connects first to this game or the like occupies the largest category (5-6), and the next person (5-5) connects next to the lower part. The initial ranking is determined in such a way as to occupy the largest remaining maximum category (5-7). That is, for example, if a person who lives in Sillim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul is the first person in Korea to play a game, he is ranked first on the map of Korea. If a subsequent visitor lives in Busan, she will be ranked first on the map of Busan, the largest category of Korean sub-categories, not Korea. Following the process of re-adjusting the ranking by category based on the evaluation of the result of the game such as the game between this person and another person or the performance result (2-2) of the game of each user (1-17) including this person, etc. Can be. For example, if a person living in Sinrim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul is the first person to start a game in Korea, he is ranked first on the map of Korea. If he loses afterwards, he will be No. 1 in Gwanak-gu, and if he loses to Gwanak-gu, he will be No. 1 in Sillim-dong. Displayed on the map. Or, if another person has a better performance result (2-2), such as a game than this person in terms of time or other criteria, the ranking of this person is adjusted in relation to the other person.

Secondly, it is a condition achievement type, which comprehensively evaluates the performance result (2-2) of a game or the like for a certain period of time, or when a certain condition is achieved (5-8), the ranking for each category is determined at a time. Based on the ranking, a game or the like may be progressed, or various processes such as comparison and evaluation may be performed again to adjust the newly changed ranking or the like.

In games that are conducted offline, ranking basic data on the results of games, such as the organizer / organizer / ranker of a game or the like, or a person who receives information about the results of the games or purely ranking information from them, etc. Input or transmit 2a) to the ranking management center 1-1. The ranking management center 1-1 processes this data as in the online case.

An example of the ranking DB 1-11a is detailed in FIG. 4.

First, an example of two DBs of information about the ranking in the category of administrative divisions in a specific game called StarCraft means that the rankings are created and managed according to the expansion and contraction of administrative districts, and according to the reference time. It shows that the contents of the DB are different. Third, the example of ranking in a category that is university-specific in a specific game called StarCraft DB example shows that ranking-related DB can be formed and managed even in a group or category with virtuality. The last DB example shows that the ranking information in each combination area can be created and managed when a multi-level category and two or more categories belonging to an individual are combined.

4 illustrates a material information DB of a specific category for a specific game for a specific person. Here, the ranking information DB configured for the 'specific game' and the like applies mutatis mutandis to any action, activity, or performance in electronic commerce or non-commercial transaction through the product or service. The example of mutatis mutandis is as follows.

In the contents of the ranking data information DB shown in FIG. 4, if a specific product or service is replaced in place of 'Starcraft' in a specific game position, an example of the ranking data DB for the specific product or service is provided. For example, if the 'flower shop' is placed in the place of 'Starcraft', the example of the first data DB of FIG. 4 is an example of ranking in the category of administrative area for the flower shop.

The DB containing the ranking data forward in this specification includes not only the DB shown by way of example in FIG. 4, but also including the one which is replaced by the specific one disclosed in the specific subject, the specific game, and the specific category. In this regard, it shall include mutatis mutandis the ranking-related DB that occurs for any activity, activity or performance in electronic commerce or non-commercial transaction through 'goods or services'. Same as below.

Just as a first place may not be an eternal first place, it is natural that rankings can vary over time and circumstances. The updating of the ranking (5-3) may be as follows.

First, there is a spontaneous renewal method in which an additional (5-2) input of ranking basic data is immediately responded to and is given a new ranking.

Second, it is a conditioned renewal method that allows a change in ranking (5-3) only if a certain time has elapsed / period unit or a certain criterion is satisfied even if additional data is input. While the immediate update method has the advantage of reacting to the fact immediately, the ranking may become unstable, and there is a problem that the ranking display number and the like may change rapidly. The condition renewal method is consistent with the common sense that rankings have authority over a period of time. This is particularly true when the content 10-6, various avatars, image contents, colors and other related contents are present in the ranking display. You can maintain your loyalty.

Each scheme may have a renewal policy that is the basis for updating the rankings, especially in the case of condition updates.

The updating of the ranking is made by calculating and displaying the addition of the ranking basic data 1-2-2 in the determination of the initial ranking and the new ranking based on this.

The ranking management center 1-1 adds the new ranking basic data 1-2a to the ranking management center 1-1 when the new ranking basic data 1-2a is input / transmitted to the existing ranking basic data 1-2a. A new ranking is generated based on the ranking basic data 1-2a.

The ranking management center 1-1 adds new ranking basic data 1-2-2 to the existing data when it is input / transmitted. The subsequent process is as follows.

First, a new ranking including the added data is generated, and it is determined whether the generated ranking conforms to the update policy. If it does not match, only the added data is saved, the ranking sticks to the existing one, and if it does match, the ranking is updated.

Second, as a case of determining whether the added data conforms to the renewal policy, if it is matched, it is added to the existing ranking basic data (1-2a), and then the first process occurs. If not, only save.

The ranking usually receives overwhelming attention from the first or higher ranking holders, and a large number of users (1-17) or related parties want to be the first or highest ranking holders. Therefore, since the holder of the first or higher ranking may exhibit an attribute to avoid competition for the first or the highest ranking, it may be necessary to prevent this process to induce updating of the ranking. This can happen especially in games where the results of their actions are reflected.

Challenges, competitions, confrontation requests and acceptances of users 1-17 vs. 1-17 are autonomous between users 1-17.

In this case, the online event provider or the ranking management center 1-1 partially intervenes in applying for and accepting the challenge, competition, and confrontation of the user 1-17 to the user 1-17.

The ranking related information is the overall information on the ranking indication and is a concept including the following as an example of the information.

First, in the display of ranking information for a specific category, it is any information related to the ranking linked to the position object 10-1 on the specific electronic map 1-4a. The boundary that separates each location object 10-1 on the electronic map 1-4a may or may not be visible to the user 1-17, but is strictly separated in internal management. That is, when the user 1-17 designates a specific location (internally designates a mung bean distance of Sinrim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul) by using a pointing device such as a mouse, the detailed regional unit related to the designation (for example, The sub-category of the Seoul map (surroundings) may be a district unit such as Gwanak-gu, each unit in Gwanak-gu, or each unit of detailed location in Sinlim-dong. However, if the user (1-17) has already selected the unit of the area category or the specific case, the detailed area unit becomes each unit in Gwanak-gu such as Sillim-dong and Bongcheon-dong.) Ranking information may be displayed. At this time, there may or may not be visual effect devices that display specific boundaries or boundaries to the users 1-17 between the detailed regional unit and the surroundings.

The detailed local unit or specific category and the location object 10-1 on the electronic map 1-4a may correspond to 1: 1. In this case, various information may be linked to the location object 10-1. This information includes ranking basic data (1-2a), rankings for each user (1-17) over time, information for each user (1-17) for each ranking over time, ranking first or higher ranking users (1 Information about the value 2-12b of -17), information about each community related to each position object 10-1 or corresponding to the first or upper ranking, relation to this position object 10-1 All or a part of information about other games or goods, and other information provided by the ranking management center 1-1 corresponding to the location object 10-1 may correspond to the location object 10-1. Can be. The user 1-17 assigns the coordinated information to the location object 10-1 by the ranking management center 1-1 (for example, when the right mouse button is pressed on the location object 10-1). When the title of the title is clicked, and the user clicks on it, the user moves to the associated information, and in the case of the voice recognition device, the user inputs a voice).

Secondly, it is a total of information about a game or the like in each user (1-17) unit. The ranking management center 1-1 may recognize the identity of each user 1-17. When each user 1-17 selects a specific location object 10-1, each user 1 is identified. Subjective ranking related information for each user may be provided to the user 1-17. Each user 1-17 has a result of a game or the like stored in the ranking management center 1- 1 for his or her particular game, the game history, or the content of the game (for example, a test question in case of a test). Any information that the user (1-17) acted on, content, correct answers, and other tests, and any information that the ranking management center (1-1) analyzed and evaluated for the behavior of the user (1-17); , Results of performance of games, etc. (2-2) Information on analysis, evaluation, comparison, advice, recommendation, etc. provided by the ranking management center 1-1, ranking history over time of users, users (1-17) Some or all of the information stored in the personal ranking management space 1-5 for each user may be provided to the user 1-17 corresponding to the location object 10-1. Subjective information for each user 1-17 is transmitted to the user 1-17 via the location object 10-1 through information existing in the personal ranking management space 1-5 for each user 1-17. Can be. At this time, the identification process of the user 1-17 is essentially preceded.

Third, when there are several games or the like related to the specific category (multiple games etc. exist under one portal or the like, and the ranking for the games or the like is based on a plurality of games or the like rather than a unit game or the like) In the case of processing, when the position-related information 10-1 or the user 1-17 acts on a specific category for a plurality of games, the above-described first and second processes may occur when linking related information is linked.

The method of interworking includes the steps of specifying (10-2) the location object, acting on the location object 10-1, accepting and processing the action by the ranking management center 1-1, and processing the result of the user. There are steps to mark (1-17). In this case, the user 1-17 may select a default value in advance.

First, a specific (10-2) step of the location object. In the case of the electronic map 1-4a, the visual pointing device (mouse, joystick, touch screen, voice recognition device, motion recognition device (devices for specifying the position corresponding to the movement of the pupil, virtual reality, regardless of the dimension) (A motion detection device, etc. is an example in the art.) In the location object 10-1. A special form of the electronic map 1-4a may be related to sound and hearing. For example, if the location object 10-1 on each electronic map 1-4a has a unique number or unique code (for example, a postal code is one example), input the unique number (ARS day). In the case of a typical computer system, such as inputting a number through a telephone or the like, the location object 10-1 may be specified by an input through a keyboard, a keypad, or other key input device.

Secondly, the detailed operation 10-3 is performed on the location object. The act of specifying the location object 10-2 may directly act on the location object 10-1. This is especially true if a default value is specified. However, if there is a detailed menu item provided by the ranking management center 1-1 with respect to the location object 10-1 after the location object 10-2 is specified, the selection of the item may be required. The user 1-17 may act on the location object 10-1 or an item in a manner designated by the ranking management center 1-1.

Third, the process 10-4 of the ranking management center. The computer of the user 1-17 or the like transmits the result of the operation to the ranking management center 1-1, the ranking management center 1-1 accepts this, and the user 1-17 with reference to the DB or the like. Extracts, calculates, processes and processes the desired information.

Fourth, the processed result is transmitted to the users 1-17 in a manner determined by the ranking management center 1-1 to the users 1-17, and the selection or ranking management center of the user 1-17 ( It may be displayed to the user 1-17 in a manner designated by 1-1. (10-5) For example, there may be various display methods such as visual information, graph, text only, and sound. have. However, the ranking management center 1-1 transmits the digital content to the user 1-17, which is translated by the computer or browser of the user 1-17 and linked to the user 1-17. Provide information.

In the above method, the ranking related information may be linked to the digital content 13-2 displaying the product or the ranking display content 13-1, not the location object 10-1. This is constituted by substituting the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 for displaying goods or the like in place of the position object 10-1.

Outputting the processed ranking to the outside in an online or offline manner is called display of the ranking. The display of the ranking is the collection of the ranking basic data (1-2a) for the application of a certain ranking concept and stored in the DB, so that the result of the data processing by the ranking management center (1-1) is selected by the user (1-17). The data may be processed according to the request or the selection / request of the user 1-17 to the user 1-17 by the method of the present invention or other display method in a medium such as an electronic map 1-4a. It means to print out. In the present invention, the display includes both visual, audio, or audiovisual displays.

The basic premise for the presentation of the ranking is that:

First, it is necessary to specify a game or a product.

Second, a detailed category (specific game, target of specific ranking, region, etc.) to be ranked in a single game or the like should be determined. According to the specific (2-7) level of this subcategory, the ranking management center 1-1 can calculate the ranking in the upper category or the lower category based on the category or the category thereof.

Third, when ranking related information is provided in a specific virtual space, the ranking may be displayed at a category level determined by an operator as a default. At this time, if the process of analyzing the IP address of the user 1-17 is combined, the location information obtained from the IP address of the user 1-17 may be reflected in the determination of the default category for the user 1-17. have.

For example, in order to display StarCraft Gwanak-gu first place, first, StarCraft games are specified in games, etc., and the ranges of regional units (default may be regional units) and detailed regional categories are specified as Gwanak-gu. Needs to be. In this case, if you want to know the ranking among men, the detailed category related information may be known by inputting or selecting a detailed category of male or a filter. However, it is natural that the ranking management center 1-1 should provide a process for selecting such segmented and detailed ranking-related information and displaying it.

In the present invention, an electronic map can be roughly divided into a geographical information display map and a non-geographic information display map. One electronic map 1-4a may include some or all of the following.

Geographical information is processed into electronic information, built into a database, processed, and processed to meet the needs of users (1-17). There may be a map, there is an electronic map that can be displayed to the user (1-17) in true three-dimensional by using holographic 3D graphics, virtual reality technology and the like. That is, the concept of excluding the output on a traditional medium such as paper out of all maps produced electronically for the purpose of providing geographical information. In other words, any map for processing and displaying spatial information described in the geographic information system falls within this range.

In general, a map is generally displayed as an image, but geographic information may be displayed as text. A form of geographic information presentation in text is an easy example of a postal code (only a name indicating the relative location and inclusion of an administrative area, except for the postal code). The Postal Code is a textual map because the name (Seoul, etc.) corresponding to the geographical concept of Korea as an administrative district is organized in the form of text.

An information set is a collection of two or more relevant pieces of information. In order to organize or display such information systematically, we introduce the concept of a conceptual map based on the relationship, be- ing a part of something, or relative position between components of the information set. There is one thing. For example, a site map often found on an Internet site is an easy example, and the organization / schematic diagram of a government or organization belongs to the concept of a map. These information set display maps may be referred to as conceptual maps having a higher virtuality than geographic information display maps. For example, abstracting and hierarchizing government organizations or school organizations by units and displaying them in conceptual maps.

For example, divide A university into colleges, beauty colleges, music colleges, humanities colleges, social colleges, and colleges, divide each college into departments, and divide each department into classes for grades and grades. On a map. Groups are represented by figures or images, such as the name of each group or a box with an icon symbolizing them, and the hierarchical relationship between the groups is represented by lines, shades, and colors connecting the groups. In other words, conceptually, the upper and lower concepts can be created by visually expressing the upper and lower concepts, and a kind of conceptual map is created. It can create a conceptual map of all the objects with vertical or horizontal organization corresponding to the organization chart.

In these maps, it is common for images or text and text to be mixed. However, if the information is provided in text only, not in an image, or mainly in text, this is a map of text as described above.

For example, any organization that has an organization, such as a government organization or a company organization, can be represented as a conceptual map. When you associate an individual with the address where he or she lives (111-11, Sinrim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul, Korea), you can assign various upper and lower regional categories, within the place where the individual works and within the organization of that person. You can match the position 1: 1. (E.g., Hong Gil-dong: Office of Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy, Seoul Office of Civil Affairs, Office of Civil Affairs, Lim Kwak-jeong: Samsung Group Samsung Electronics, Business Support Office, Business Strategy Team, etc.). For, we can assign one or more conceptual position sets. For example, Hong Gil-dong, a school and a major, may be assigned one more conceptual position: "Hong Gil-dong: Doctor of Biotechnology, Ph.D.

In a simpler way, conceptual maps of highly virtualized categories can be organized by an individual, user (1-17), or subject, even if they simply textify and process boxes to provide hierarchical ranking. Or they can correspond to locations in the category and can be visually specified. An example is shown in FIG. 6.

Expanding the concept of electronic maps (1-4a), you can use cyber boards, media, regional media, newslines sent to PC rooms, virtual reality, VR, virtual or high Like cyber organization structure, we can assume a complete cyber space where humans can perceive the five senses.

If the concept is not based on a physical entity, or is a group with only a virtual entity, or if there is a highly virtual group, there is an electronic map (1-4a) indicating the group. The map will also have a boundary, and the upper and lower categories to which the individual or subject belongs will be specified, which is a map of digital data, both of which display the ranking on a conventional electronic map (1-4a), so that the display step There is no conceptual difference between the way it is implemented, the way it works, and the way it interacts.

For example, in more detail: It is possible to form a map that virtually displays the space, or to form a diagram that shows the hierarchy of the group as shown in FIG. (6-7), (6-8), (6-9)

For example: If there is a hierarchy named Zerg user (1-17) in the StarCraft group of the game group of HITEL's hobbies group, the Zerg user (1-17) group becomes the lowest group (6-6), and the star This is how craft gatherings become a parent group. Here, the hightel is the top group, but a higher group than this can be assumed (for example, a domestic PC network 6-1), and a subgroup can be generated again under the Zerg user group (1-17). . Here again, the specific category becomes the destination category 8-2, and the upper category of this category is around. At this time, as in the electronic map 1-4a method, when interacting with (6-1), the sub-categories of 6-1 are advanced to the detailed category in such a manner as to be opened. The lower figure of FIG. 6 shows that each detailed category can be shown to the user 1-17 in a pyramid structure.

There may be various methods of implementing an electronic map (including a GIS map) to be ranked. First, the computer user 1-17 can drive his / her computer away from the network to visually drive an electronic map of a desired area through its own internal memory. Electronic map configuration and information can be embedded in universal main / secondary storage devices such as RAM, ROM, HDD, FDD, etc., and when a large capacity is used, magnetic tape, CD-ROM, DVD, Zip Drive, various magnetic, optical It can be stored in a large capacity auxiliary memory device such as Drive.

Currently, the method of serving the electronic maps 1-4a through a network can be considered as a service for a specific user based on Client / Server and a service for an unspecified number through the web. In general, the Internet GIS that users (1-17) access to any homepage through a web browser is divided into CGI-based, Plug-in, Active X-based, and Java-based implementation methods. The person providing the electronic map service and the person managing the ranking management center 1-1 and providing the ranking may or may not match.

An electronic map generally means that a general two-dimensional map displayed on paper is displayed on a computer display in a simplified or detailed manner. Electronic maps, which are the display media of the rankings, often include two-dimensional maps that appear on a flat computer monitor, or pseudo-3D maps considering the point of view of the user (1-17). It may be very detailed, or may be simplified to fit the category level of the ranking user 1-17, and may be processed to conceptually grasp only one region and 1: 1 correspondence information.

For example, the latter, along with the outline of the outlined or simplified borderline of Seoul, and the addition of the designation 'Seoul Metropolitan City' within its outline, would mark the region at the level of public awareness of Korea (the higher region including Seoul Metropolitan City). Can be recognized as Seoul Metropolitan Government. In other words, the relationship between Korea (upper regional category) and Seoul (subregional category) is conceptually the same as that between Seoul and Gwanak-gu.

If the electronic map is classified by the type of information storage medium as follows.

First, there is an electronic map that collects and processes map information based on a wired network. It connects to a map providing server of a website or an intranet and receives map information via a network.

Second, wireless networks can be displayed geographically and hierarchically. In personal portable communication terminal, it can be divided into text base and graphic base according to transmission speed and display condition.

Third, the map information embedded in the main memory device or the auxiliary memory device of the computer is displayed on the electronic map. Examples of such storage devices are as described above.

Fourth, you can mix network connections with your own storage. For example, suppose you have a car telematics system that uses a satellite network. For the bandwidth efficiency of a network, basic geographic information is embedded in a storage device, such as a DVD of your system, with detailed information, updated geographic information, and ranking details. May be downloaded through the communication network when the user 1-17 interacts or when there is an advantage in bandwidth.

When the electronic maps 1-4a are classified by dimensions, one-dimensional (line), two-dimensional (a concept of computer graphics that is considered to be a plane or a plane, that is, 2D), and three-dimensional (stereoscopic image, computer graphics) 3D concepts, virtual reality, three-dimensional space) and four dimensions (dimensions combined with time in three dimensions). One and four dimensions have been added over the definition of terms. In the above, the 1-4 dimension map becomes an electronic map which becomes the object of this invention below.

The one-dimensional electronic map (1-4a) means that information is displayed at each position on a line (a position object 10-1 recognized as one-dimensional which can be conceived as a line such as a straight line or a curve or a dotted line). Say. Genetic maps are essentially one-dimensional maps.

A map that can be understood as a general plane concept includes a representation expressed in terms of depth, saturation, and color.

A map representing a three-dimensional space in three-dimensional image (including a case where a three-dimensional image is recognized only if a user wears an assistive device to help the stereoscopic image be recognized through vision), and the surface of the three-dimensional object Maps made of the 3D electronic maps (1-4a) and maps of virtual reality. Of course, the expression style of the virtual space (for example, the distance) to which the normal 3D graphic concept is applied becomes a three-dimensional electronic map.

The representation of the three-dimensional object having a three-dimensional effect on the two-dimensional plane becomes an electronic map 1-4a in which two-dimensional and three-dimensional are mixed.

When the elements of the map (buildings, streets, roads, landscapes, etc.) change over time in a one-, two-, or three-dimensional map, it is conceptualized as a four-dimensional electronic map (1-4a). In addition, when the 1, 2, 3D electronic maps 1-4a have a time axis and the user 1-17 can designate a specific time zone, this becomes a 4D map. That is, even if the space on the same electronic map (1-4a) can change the owner of the ranking first by time zone. For example, user 1-17 A may specify his or her desired time zone as the Joseon Dynasty (for example, 1592), and user 1-17 B may specify a future time zone. That is, the electronic map 1-4a as the display space of the ranking does not necessarily need to be a time zone of the present time.

The electronic map 1-4a is a photorealistic photographing based on a method of expression, which is actually displayed in two or three dimensions by a camera or the like according to a method of expression, i.e., real-life photographing based on the recognition of ordinary people even when expressed as a computer image. A live-action map expressed in (or a thing that can be built) and a graphic map are recognized as computer graphics (such as drawn) on the basis of ordinary people, regardless of whether or not live-action photography is taken. Photorealistic maps include the use of satellites, aircraft photographs, or other spatial photographs directly. In a typical GIS, it is common to convert satellite, aircraft photographing data, etc. into computer graphics to make an electronic map 1-4a.

According to the location providing the service of the electronic map (1-4a) including the relevant information in the ranking can be classified as follows. This specifies only the providing location, and the collection, processing, and generation of the ranking related information may be the same as the providing location, but may be transmitted from the providing location (computer such as a server) to a providing location.

First, the electronic map may be serviced in a place where a service such as a game is provided or a place where the result of processing evaluation information such as a product is displayed.

Second, a user 1-17, such as a game, a user, or an observer, such as a commerce, may provide an electronic map service in his / her personal ranking management space 1-5 or a personal homepage.

Third, the electronic map may be serviced in a virtual space on a network whose main purpose is to provide ranking (hereinafter, referred to as a 'ranking site', such as a website or a ranking portal). The ranking site is classified by type of game, etc., by item in each type (the item may be classified by subcategory in each item), by geographical category such as item, region, by non-geographic category, by each user (1-17), and each product. It may exist in various forms, such as by component, specific evaluation criteria, or a comprehensive portal in which two or more of them are combined.

Fourth, an electronic map can be displayed on the portable information communication device (portable computer terminal device including a mobile phone or the like) of each user 1-17.

Fifth, the electronic map 1-4a may be provided where the user 1-17 performs the evaluation, selection, and voting for the application target of the ranking.

Sixth, other offline media may be provided locations.

The display medium serving as the electronic map 1-4a is not limited to a PC. The classification according to the type of display medium is as follows.

First, general-purpose computers with versatile computing and processing power, such as PCs, notebooks, work stations, mini computers, and super computers.

Second, PDA, palm top, e-book, cellular phone, mobile phone, beeper, airpost, game machine (e.g., Sony Play Station) Electronic equipment including Post PCs that are not classified as general purpose computers such as digital TVs, automotive telematics systems, etc.

Third, the black and white / color signboard is linked to the network to extract the information provided by the ranking site to display (display) or broadcast (broadcasting).

Fourth, these media, which cannot interact in real time with the user (1-17) with non-computer displays such as paper books, catalogs, newspapers, flea newspapers, shopping malls, etc., map the result of the ranking of a specific item to a paper in a specific time period. A scene of an electronic map to be mapped is displayed. For example, a map of the entire Gwanak-gu output in a form including a ranking of each dong for the information of a restaurant ranking updated monthly is displayed on a flea newspaper.

Fifth, a system that provides information by telephone or voice such as ARS (hereinafter referred to as ARS) may be used to display ranking related information by sound. A normal display refers to a visual display, but the display defined in the present invention includes a method of transmitting information recognized through an auditory sensory organ.

The general way in which the ranking is communicated to the user 1-17 or a third party is a direct presentation on the electronic map 1-4a, a geographical / non-geographic object on the electronic map 1-4a. location object 10-1, which displays a ranking-related information related to the location object 10-1, when a geographical object, simply referred to as a location object 10-1, is clicked. There is an interlocking method.

The display of the ranking can directly display the digital content 13-2 or the ranking displaying contents 13-1 for displaying goods or the like on the electronic map 1-4a.

First, the user 1-17 specifies a subcategory, including the highest of the highest categories of a geographic range / location object (10-2) (the top category of any one electronic map 1-4a), e.g. You can specify the scope of the country, the scope of Seoul, Gwanak-gu, and Sillim-dong.) And the types of games or products that you want to display (eg, StarCraft, Mock Test, Popular Celebrities, etc.). do. Of course, the geographic range may be automatically specified by default (such as from user profile information 2-1 or from an IP address analysis of user 1-17), and for a particular game or product. If only ranking information is provided, the game or the like may already be specified.

Secondly, the ranking management center 1-1 receives input of the geographical range / location object 10-1 of the user 1-17 and the game or the product of the ranking target. Information about the user 1-17 itself may be requested.

Third, the ranking management center 1-1 searches the ranking basic data DB 1-2-2 in accordance with this specification, extracts and processes necessary data, and generates ranking related information. In this process, information about the user 1-17 itself may be reflected.

Fourth, the ranking management center 1-1 displays the electronic map 1-4a in the form of a digital content 13-2 or a ranking display content 13-1 displaying the product or the like as it is or by processing the related information. Can be displayed on the screen. In this process, the ranking display format desired by the user 1-17 may be reflected.

The above process acts on the location object 10-1 on the electronic map 1-4a (just putting on a pointing device such as a click on the location object 10-1, a mouse, or the like, When the ranking management center 1-1 responds to the location object 10-1 by identifying the location object 10-1 by voice and inputting text corresponding to the location object 10-1. Only in the case of any input related to the location object 10-1), the display 2-9 may be displayed on the electronic map 1-4a.

In the ranking management center 1-1, the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying a certain level of goods or the like is displayed on the electronic map 1-4a by default. When the position object 10-1 of 1-17 or the menu related to the position object 10-1 (for example, the position object 10-1 is clicked on the right button of a mouse as in the window system of Microsoft Corporation) When a part of the user 1-17 selectable menu, etc. related to the location object 10-1 is selected, the digital content 13-2 displaying a product or the like corresponding to the action or selection thereof, or the like; The ranking display content 13-1 can be displayed.

The ranking basis information 2-10 means ranking basic data 1-2-2 information in which a ranking of a specific category has occurred and information statistically processed. The disclosure of this information serves to enhance the basis for the determination of the ranking and the reliability of the ranking.

The ranking basis information 2-10 is present in association with the digital content 13-2, the ranking display content 13-1, or the location object 10-1 displaying a product or the like. That is, when the user 1-17 acts on the digital content 13-2, the ranking display content 13-1, or the location object 10-1 displaying the goods or the like, the ranking-based information (2- 10 may be transmitted and displayed from the ranking management center 1-1 to the user 1-17.

'Access to ranking-related information 12-1' including an indication of ranking and ranking basis information (2-10) means that the user (1-17) or a third party accesses, uses, views, and acts on ranking-related information. Contacting the information by any means or method, including transmission, download, and the like.

The level or degree of access to ranking related information is referred to as the 'public level'. There are three types of disclosure levels.

First, it is a case of allowing access to ranking information of the user 1-17 himself or a third party regardless of whether the user 1-17 has entered the ranking basic data 1-2-2 in a publicly disclosed type. This type can be applied well in the case of ranking related information about goods and the like.

Second, conditionally open only when certain conditions are satisfied (eg, all ranking related information related to data entered by the user is disclosed to the user (1-17), and only a certain level of ranking related information is provided). This is a case where access to ranking information is allowed. This type can be well applied in the case of ranking related information about games and the like.

Third, only the user 1-17 is accessible, such as allowing access after the user 1-17 is authorized to gain access to the ranking information. This may in particular relate to the privacy of the user 1-17 individual, or this type may apply in the case of the personal ranking management space 1-5.

The access of the user 1-17 refers to a case in which the user 1-17 accesses ranking related information directly or indirectly associated with the user, such as contributing to the generation of the ranking information. In particular, the personal ranking management space 1-5 may be allowed access only to users 1-17 or only those who can be recognized as users 1-17.

A person who is not related to the ranking information generation process is defined as a third party in relation to the ranking related information, and such a person's access to the ranking related information is called a third party's access.

Viewing the ranking on the electronic map means not only the user 1-17 (the user who has performed the game, etc. in the game, etc.), but also the observer (not the user 1-17). In the aspect of using a virtual space called a third party, the ranking management center 1-1, the observer can also be a user 1-17 in a broad sense. In the case of the user (1-17), the ranks of those who are at the top of each category and their ranks are displayed, and in the case of the observer, only those in the top of each category are displayed, or by adding a user (1-17) of special interest I can display it. At this time, a person who does not reach the predetermined high ranking in each category is the default option to set his own ranking can not be observed by others. The authority to change this option is limited to those who are in the lower rankings, managers of the ranking management center (1-1), and managers of each category. The managers of each category are the official managers and the ranking management center (1--). It is limited to the managers of the category recognized by the manager of 1). For example, if there is a category of government organization, the head of each organization has the right to view the ranking of all members of the organization category.

The ranking related information can be accessed from the personal ranking management space (1-5), which is a digital content (13-2) or a ranking display content (13-1) or a personal ranking management space (1-5) indicating a product or the like. Can be accessed by acting on location object 10-1. The specific method of access is described in the section on linking to ranking-related information. In addition, the user 1-17 may receive a file containing the ranking related information from the ranking management center 1-1, and combines the information and any text or image that is a hyperlink. It can also access the information by receiving an existing object and acting on it.

The effectiveness of the user 1-17 to access the ranking indication or the ranking related information that he / she desires is in how to accurately grasp the intention of the user 1-17, which in turn is an interface with the user 1-17. ) Is a problem. In the present invention, there is essentially an electronic map, and the user (1-17) for the category, attribute, unit (national unit, city unit, unit, etc.) of the desired category, and the ranking indication or ranking related information Understanding the intention of the user 1-17 is an important factor of efficiency.

For example, when a user (1-17) living in Sillim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul, who is connected to the ranking management center (1-1) wants to order a jjajangmyeon, the ranking management center (1-1) may use the user (1- 1) interface. 17) It is a matter of grasping the intention of In this regard, two methods can be considered.

The selection method is to select a top-down, bottom-up, or a specific item, 1) narrow or widen, and 2) the level of the item desired by the user (1-17) at the horizontal level. There may be ways to specify in combination. This may be a method through an action such as a click on the electronic map 1-4a, and a menu method (a method of presenting a menu and, depending on the selection, may be linked to the selection). For example, www.yahoo.com 's directory information approach is an example.

A search term input method means that when a user (1-17) inputs a desired word in a search word input window as in www.google.com , the ranking management center (1-1) responds to the input information to the user (1-17). Is to display the desired information. The input may be in any form that the ranking management center 1-1 can process, such as sound and text. For example, in the case of inputting "1st Chinese restaurant ranking in Sillim 9-dong" into the search box, "Sinlim 9-dong" is analyzed for this input to identify the location and analyze the Chinese restaurant.

Afterwards, the result of analysis is the next best answer (e.g. 'Donghee Spot', the name, location, phone number or website that allows you to access / access Donghee Spot online or offline and related to Donghee Spot. Information, ranking grounding data (2-10a), display of recent ranking changes, maps or geographic information, information on the shortest distance or traffic network, 2nd or lower ranking, from the current location of the user (1-17) Some or all of them).

The DB which stores all the information about the user 1-17 is called user information DB 1-3. An example of the user information DB 1-3 is as shown in FIG. In addition to the time indicated in FIG. 3, the user information DB 1-3 may store various information according to any embodiment related to the present invention.

In geographic information system, geographic information exists in DB form as a set of geographic information that is multi-layered, multi-layered, and categorized by category. In general, GIS is a layer for geographic information generation, accumulation, processing, and display. ) Use the concept. Using the concept of a layer, an information receiver can extract and display only desired information from a set of geographic information. For example, if the key word of the geographic information system is a fire road, a well-organized geographic information system can be placed on the basic electronic map (1-4a) in the geographic information database. It can be displayed to the information consumer only with the fire road or with associated information including the fire road.

The ranking-related information of the user 1-17 is present in the form of a DB like a set of geographic information, and only the ranking-related information having a specific attribute, such as a layer of a GIS, is selected by the user 1-17. Can be shown on 4a). For example, various evaluation indicators such as odds, total scores, average scores, scores for specific areas, degree of acquisition of specific items, and various quantifiable information or products supported by the game, and those processed as statistics, etc. Each can be an attribute layer. That is, when the user 1-17 selects a specific attribute as if selecting a fire road, the ranking management center 1-1 processes the ranking basic data 1-2 through the attribute based on the attribute to determine the ranking result. Extract it and display it on an electronic map (1-4a) containing the concept of a layer.

One user 1-17 participates in various games, etc. in the network, and belongs to various fixed and selective categories. That is, when a user (1-17) selects a quiz program A as a category and a high school B where he or she attends as a category in a system in which information such as a game on the network of the user 1-17 is integrated, On the electronic map 1-4a, the B high school to which the user 1-17 goes is displayed, and the ranking of the user 1-17 and the like are displayed in a specific manner. In addition, the user 1-17 may be provided with basic information about the owner of the ranking that is related to his ranking in a specific category, each of which is linked. In addition, the information about the ranking of the school on the electronic map 1-4a or the ranking of the A program of the C apartment complex in which he / she resides is expanded and linked according to the information request input of the user 1-17. Can be provided.

When the destination category 8-2 selected by the user 1-17 is expanded or reduced, a method of expressing the equality of the user 1-17 on the electronic map will be described with reference to FIG. 8.

First, when the category expands or contracts on a local basis, using surroundings: In the above numerical example, if the user (1-17) specified a game or the like and selected Sinrim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul, an electronic map (1-4a) for Sinrim 9-dong would be shown, and the same as that of Sinrim 9-dong. The area divided by the sorting device provided by the management system appears, and the area around the Sillim-dong around Sillim-dong is formed to form a surrounding.

The sorting device distinguishes each area, and is displayed on the output device of the user 1-17 by using a shape (color, shape (freshness, color separation, color blurring), shape) to distinguish each area. The form may be given by the management system or may be selected by the user 1-17.

If the user (1-17) expands the destination category again, the entire Sillim-dong drawing is around Gwanak-gu, and if the category of Gwanak-gu is selected, a map of Seoul is displayed, and information about his ranking is displayed as mentioned above. Is displayed. The expansion is accomplished by realizing a promised interaction method, such as clicking around with a pointing device.

* If the user (1-17) passes over time (reference time: December 12, 2000) and becomes the first place in the whole Sillim-dong, and the 12th place in the whole Gwanak-gu, the ranking of the first place in the nine-dong Sinrim means Since there is no, the same process as described above occurs for the entire Sillim-dong, the largest unit for which he ranked first. If the user (1-17) selects a category throughout Seoul, his ranking, his ranking in Gwanak-gu, and his ranking in Sillim-dong are displayed on the entire Seoul map.

The way of expanding and collapsing categories can be as follows.

First, vertical expansion refers to expansion and contraction between sub-categories, as it expands from 'Gwanak-gu' to 'Seoul.' The expansion and contraction device may act as clicking on a specific button, drag a mouse, or the like, or position the mouse at a specific location or a location on the electronic map 1-4a intended by the user 1-17, This can be achieved by clicking a button or the like. Vertical expansion and contraction does not have to be the first unit of expansion and contraction.

Second, as a horizontal expansion, when there are each ward, which is a subcategory of Seoul, the area is expanded, moved, and reduced between the subcategories. That is, there may be a category specification (2-7) or a movement between subcategories of a specific upper category recognized at the same level, such as an operation or a distant Eunpyeong-gu in Gwanak-gu.

Third, there is an arbitrary designation method. In Sillim-dong, Gwanak-gu, the entire Busan city, or even Tokyo, Japan can be specified as the destination category (8-2).

Dominant Region 11-1 Defined by the Present Invention The controlled region 11-1 refers to a region in which it is ranked first or is in a higher ranking under a specific criterion. In the present invention, the region is used in the same sense as the category. Hereinafter, it will be referred to as 'domination category 11-1' or 'domination area 11-1'.

The following cases may occur in relation to expansion and contraction of the dominant region 11-1 and categories.

First, you may want to make the entire Seoul area your dominant territory (11-1), as you are ranked first in Gwanak-gu in relation to vertical expansion.

Second, a person who ranks first in Gwanak-gu in relation to horizontal expansion may want to be the first in that place by specifying the next movement or the distant Eunpyeong-gu.

Third, a player who ranks first in Gwanak-gu in relation to an arbitrary designation may want to rank first in Japan.

When operating a game or the like in relation to the expansion and contraction of the category, it is possible to combine the expansion process of the dominant area 11-1 / the dominant category 11-1. This process can be combined with rankings to increase the game's interest, increase the number of matchups, effectively match match, increase game-related traffic, and increase game play time.

In essence, the category specification is irrelevant to the actual location (physical address, etc.) of the user 1-17, and the user 1-17 arbitrarily specifies. However, in certain cases, the ranking management center 1-1 may use the category related to the physical location of the user 1-17 as the default category or the departure category of the user 1-17. The user 1-17 may change the category or expand and contract as described above.

When targeting a specific game or the like, when there is a user 1-17 having a specific category as the dominant category 11-1, the user 1-17 can have various rankings in various categories. For example, user (1-17) A can be placed 100th in Seoul, 5th in Gwanak-gu, 1st in Sillim-dong, and / or 2nd in Saha-gu, Busan, and 3rd in Tokyo, Japan. User 1-17 A may attempt to expand the ruling category 11-1 with respect to other dongs (Namhyeon-dong, Bongcheon-dong, etc.) constituting Gwanak-gu. If there is no ranking in another dong, it may be bloodless, but if there is another user (1-17) B whose place is the dominant category (11-1), A is the dominant category of B (11-1) The brokerage center can broker the process of categorizing the governing category into its own. Here, Sillim-dong is the dominant category (11-1), and Bongcheon-dong, which is a specific category to be dominant, is defined as 'dominant-purpose category or dominant-purpose area'. The governing purpose category 11-2 occurs through the horizontal, vertical, and arbitrary specification that result from the expansion and contraction of the category.

This process has the following structure.

First, the user 1-17 (A) having a specific governing category 11-1 specifies the governing purpose category 11-2, and transmits information about the specification to the ranking management center 1-1. do.

Second, the ranking management center 1-1 searches for the control target category 11-2, 1) whether or not there is a person having the specific category as the control category 11-1, or 2) a game or the like. Investigate whether conditions within the governance category (11-1) extension to that particular governing purpose category (11-2) are allowed or / or challenging to be allowed by the internal policy on operations and match management. do. If there is no user 1-17 whose ruling purpose category 11-2 is the ruling category 11-1, the ranking management center 1-1 controls its ruling purpose category 11-2 as its own. To those who want to categorize (11-1) under certain conditions (payment of money, money or value (2-12b), performance of certain actions, acquisition of certain points, acquisition of certain hours of use, acquisition of certain weights, etc.) Or unconditionally make the governing purpose category 11-2 a governing category 11-1 of the user 1-17.

Third, when there are one user (1-17) or a plurality of users (1-17), other users (1-17) (B) having the governing purpose category (11-2) as the governing category (11-1) , The ranking management center 1-1 may perform the following acts according to an internal policy regarding the operation of a game and the management of a match.

1) Communicate A's intention to other users 1-17, or announce the intention to the virtual space of the ranking management center 1-1 or the governing purpose category 11-2 itself or the virtual space associated therewith. can do. Based on performance results (2-2) of A and B's one or more actual bilateral competitions or games for a certain period of time, a new ruling category 11-1 is defined as a ruling category 11-1. User 1-17 can be determined. At this time, the new user 1-17 may not be either A or B. This is because there may be a large number of users (1-17) who want to make the specific category a dominant purpose category (11-2), and other users (1-17) also perform their own games or the like (2-2). This is because there may be a case where the specific category can be converted into its own ruling category 11-1 according to the internal policy regarding the operation of the game and the competitive game management. This is rarely the case if rankings are determined solely by the outcome of a 1: 1 match, such as the World Boxing Association (WBC or WBA) (for example, A and B lose their lives during the match). Multiple rankings may occur if a plurality of criteria are determined or weighted in each case.

2) When the ranking management center 1-1 communicates with B, the value 2-2b from A may be transferred to B in exchange for permission of B's competition. The ranking management center 1-1 can mediate the transfer of these valuables 2-12b.

3) The ranking management center 1-1 may store a part or all of the records of all actions including the application, the process, and the result of the game as a DB in the personal management space of the user 1-17.

Fourth, the ranking management center 1-1 updates the ranking data in real time or after a predetermined time and displays the newly formed ranking on the electronic map 1-4a (2-9). In this case, the update information or updated information may be transmitted to the relevant person or other third party with respect to the updated ranking.

The ranking management center 1-1 is provided to a specific user 1-17 (A) (a user 1-17 that satisfies specific conditions such as paying and providing value (2-12b) and providing user 1-17). Various recommendations can be made to allow a particular category to be the ruling purpose category 11-2 of the person. As an easy example, if there is no user (1-17) in a specific category, or the performance result (2-2) of A's game or the like is compared with the results of the users (1-17) of that specific category, that particular category is selected. Ranking management center (1) that A can be converted into a ruling category (11-1) of A, or a certain action (consumption of game time, confrontation with a specific user (1-17), securing a certain score, collection of a specific item, etc. -1), if a certain act corresponding to the internal policy on the operation of the game, etc., and the game management of the game, etc., the information is likely to be converted into the A category of the A category (11-1). For example, providing.

If user A (1-17) who lives in Sinrim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu, is No. 1 overall in Seoul, he would be No. 1 in Sinrim 9-dong and No. 1 in Gwanak-gu. At this time, the ranking management center (1-1) in the policy on the ranking display 1) for this A, only the first place in the category of the whole Seoul Metropolitan City, in this case, the user of the lower category in Gwanak-gu and Gwanak-gu (1-17) Among the other users (1-17) except for A may be to specify the ranking first.

In addition, in the same level of parallel categories (e.g., in the Sillim-dong, Bongcheon-dong, and Namhyeon-dong categories that make up Gwanak-gu in Gwanak-gu), their governing category 11-1 is expanded (e.g., their address or First, if the designated category is Sinrim-dong, and the person expands from Sillim-dong to Bongcheon-dong), it is necessary to provide a certain handicap. Even in wars, the attack power must be three times the defense power, so that the battle can be progressed equally, so that those who expand their control category (11-1) horizontally to other categories are consistent in weight, evaluation method, ranking calculation method, etc. It may be a disadvantage.

In addition, if he or she is ranked first in another horizontal category other than his or her preferred category, or becomes his or her governing category (11-1), even if both categories are the governing category (11) Even if -1), the indication of the ranking may indicate a specific mark that is different from the indication of one's own address or priority category. However, if all subcategories of the horizontal level are converted into the dominant category (11-1) (ie, if all the Sillim-dong, Bongcheon-dong, and Namhyeon-dong in Gwanak-gu have become their dominant category (11-1)) , The upper categories of Bongcheon-dong and Namhyeon-dong become Gwanak-gu.) The ranking method may be applied in this case, in which case there may be no specific marker.

On the electronic map, the user 1-17 may select a plurality of destination categories in addition to selecting a specific destination category and selecting a periphery thereof to expand or contract the area. As shown in FIG. In addition to simply reducing and expanding the categories, as shown in FIG. 9, the surroundings are selected to expand the categories, and among the various categories belonging to the parent category, the user (1-17) or the observer may be interested in multiple categories. Select, and the ranking for these multiple areas is displayed. If the area can be selected by an action such as clicking a specific sub-category when the area is reduced, multiple categories can be made by pressing the Shift key and selecting multiple areas with the mouse according to a predetermined rule.

As described above, it is possible to allow the user 1-17 or the observer to select various predetermined categories displayed on the electronic map 1-4a (2-9) by using the predetermined interaction protocol. If the user (1-17) is not satisfied with the category set by the creator or the administrator and wants to form the category he / she wants, the user (1-17) can be given such a method to the user (1-17). Form definition categories.

First, in the case of categories of administrative districts, this may not exactly match the range of categories desired by the user (1-17) or the user, such as games or commerce. In this case, the user 1-17 selects an arbitrary point desired by the user 1-17 on the scaled electronic map 1-4a at the same scale as the actual area, and the centrifugal, square, triangular, For the shape of the ring, etc., determine the radius, width, and length to determine its size. The area on the electronic map 1-4a displayed by this figure is used as an object category of interest to the user 1-17. As shown in FIG. 20, the destination category 1 (20-2) may be formed to indicate an area within a radius of 10 km from the Seoul station, and the destination category 2 (20-3) on the map connecting Seoul National University Station-Sillim Station-Seoul University ) Can be formed. As shown in the target category 2 (20-3), the user 1-17 can form a new category in the area he draws on the map instead of a predetermined category such as an administrative area.

In the case of a highly virtual category, users 1-17 may form a group by forming a group, and may form an informal category by grouping an object of interest.

The categories created by the users 1-17 are thus stored in the ranking management center 1-1 so that the users 1-17 can continuously observe the ranking for this category.

If the application of the ranking is the same as the test results, there is a risk of invading the privacy of the individual when exposed to others. In order to prevent this, in the case of the user definition category (1-17), the administrator of the ranking system may not allow this depending on the application target. In addition, even if the user (1-17) definition category can be created, if a specific user (1-17) does not want to belong to the user (1-17) definition category that he or she has created, the user (1-17) has the option to select the user. Can be owned.

In addition, the display method in the case where the user 1-17 is not ranked first in any minimum one category is essentially the same as above. That is, since the display method in the case where the first place in the minimum area is not the same as the case in which the first place in the whole Gwanak phrase is not the same as in the above example, the minimum area may be displayed in a manner that corresponds to the whole Gwanak phrase. That is, in the Sillim 9 building, their ranking and the like are displayed together with a person who has priority over their ranking, or their ranking is shown using a shape that matches the ranking.

When you select the vertical or horizontal category by selecting the surrounding or destination category (8-2) on the electronic map and expanding the area (Zoom-in, Zoom-out), the category information and the corresponding application target We will discuss the ranking information DB linkage.

First, DB information on a category to which each user 1-17 belongs is present in the ranking management center 1-1. Each category has a one-to-one correspondence with the category of the geographic information DB displayed as a closed area visually drawn on the electronic map 1-4a. When the user (1-17) selects such a category by clicking or interacting with each other, the ranking management center (1-1) loads the ranking DB for each category previously created and stored, or when the category is selected, each user ( Sorting the scores of 1-17) to create a ranking DB and retrieve the ranking information thus generated and display it on the electronic map.

As defined above, the destination category (8-2) and surrounding categories are also used as a navigation method for the ranking user (1-17), where the user (1-17) directly points to an area on the map corresponding to the desired category. Can be used for navigation, or, by using the Zoom Up and Zoom In buttons for category contraction and expansion, or by directly inputting the percentage of contraction extension in the case of a low-virtual category You can move to the area you want.

In order to create a ranking for a category created by the user (1-17) arbitrarily, the following steps should be taken.

First, the user 1-17 definition category is created.

Second, since the user 1-17 of the ranking application must occupy a certain point on the electronic map 1-4a (including the conceptual map), first, a list of users 1-17 belonging to the newly created category Is written.

Third, rank information is generated when the sorted list is processed through scoring.

Fourth, such ranking information is displayed on the electronic map.

Fifth, if a newly created category is to be saved, the list of the users (1-17), their grades, and rankings are stored in a separate DB. If there is a change in the grades of users (1-17), the DB is reflected. Refreshed.

The ranking information is shown as the destination category 8-2 of the displayed electronic map. Methods of implementing the ranking information are as follows.

First, the ranking information processed as text separately from the graphic part on the electronic map is arranged and displayed on the screen like the electronic map. In other words, it refers to a particular location above, below, left, right, and above a region of interest of the electronic map, and is displayed in text form. The components constituting the text, ie, font, size, color, contrast, and font processing, may be processed. . Alternatively, it may be displayed visually separated from the electronic map (1-4a) by launching a browser that is completely separate from the electronic map, or processing frames differently within the same browser. It can be overlaid on the visual occupancy area of 2) to see the effect as if it appeared on an electronic map.

Second, the ranking information is processed in the form of a game and stored in the form of a DB, and the electronic map DB (1-4b) that forms a layer and stores the electronic map by overlaying or synthesizing it graphically on the target category on the electronic map. Are stored in. The stored ranking information graphic is displayed and displayed instead when the user 1-17 selects the target category of the electronic map by an interaction such as a click.

Third, the ranking information is not processed as text, but as icons, symbols, and the like that symbolize the ranking users (1-17) ranked in the ranking, which are combined with the graphics of the electronic map and displayed.

The above process handles all data when needed because the client / server environment sends information from the client to the server and implements all processing on the server, such as HTTP or CGI, and the application sent from the server is stored in the client's web browser. Can be broken down into client-based methods such as Active X or Java applets that process on a Web browser.

The personal ranking management space 1-5 refers to a virtual space on the network for a specific user 1-17 in which ranking related information is provided for each user 1-17. This personal ranking management space (1-5) may be a personal space for each user (1-17) in the ranking management center (1-1), the own space that exists independently of the ranking management center (1-1) A virtual space under management. For example, if the ranking related information is transmitted from the ranking management center 1-1 to the e-mail address correspondence virtual space of each user 1-17, the e-mail address correspondence virtual space is the personal ranking management space (1-1-17). 5) can be. In addition, when the ranking management center 1-1 processes the ranking basic data 1-2a and provides the ranking information in a specific virtual space designated by the user 1-17 or given to the user 1-17. This may be a personal ranking management space (1-5). In addition, in the case of a person having the governing area 11-1 as well as the individual management space in the community, the community itself with respect to the governing area 11-1 may be the personal ranking management space 1-5.

In games and the like, the user is the user (1-17), and it is obvious that they can have a personal ranking management space (1-5) such as a virtual space provided by a content provider such as a homepage or a game. .

In the present invention, in relation to goods, etc., a person (corporate or non-corporate division, foundation, association or other organization) as a supplier of goods or services, an owner or manager of a natural water or an artificial facility, and a subject of existence and activity. ) May have its own personal ranking management space (1-5). This will be described in detail below.

First, a supplier of goods or services (including distributors, who intervenes in the whole or part of the process of delivering the goods or services to the end consumer, collectively referred to as the 'supplier') supplies the goods or services. Since it is the subject of, it may have a personal ranking management space (1-5) for the ranking related information of these products or services. This space may be only for a particular product or service itself, and in the case of a supplier of multiple goods or services, it may be a space allocated to a particular product or service itself in its supplier's virtual space, or a subspace of that space. have.

Secondly, the owner or manager of a natural or artificial facility may have a personal ranking management space 1-5 for ranking related information, such as a supplier of a product or service.

Third, since the person as the subject of the restriction of the existence and the action is the object of evaluation and the ranking as a result of the evaluation is related to himself, he can have a personal ranking management space (1-5) for the ranking information.

In this personal ranking management space (1-5), there are essentially categories such as games, electronic maps (1-4a) for displaying their rankings, and diagrams for diagrams. A cyber record (a medal, a mark, a symbol, a pictogram, a mark, a commendation, etc., collectively referred to as a 'mark'), a game record that records the date, opponents, results, victory points, and other game-related matters of the game. record or game history), and other users (1-17) of the same category or prize subcategory. In addition, the ranking management center 1-1 does not provide the individual ranking management space 1-5 to the individual, but the DB and the electronic map of the management system are stored in the personal ranking management space 1-5 managed by the individual. You can link to the data or copy and paste the data you want.

When the ranking is displayed on the electronic map of the personal ranking management space 1-5, the ranking display part is a protocol for the promised interaction with the user 1-17 on the electronic map, for example, the right button of a mouse. When clicked, various menus can be popped up, and the first level expansion / collapse of the category, the movement to the previous category, the detailed ranker of the displayed upper rank or the user 1-17 can be displayed. In addition, the concept of a hyperlink can be appropriately responded to the needs of users 1-17.

The ranking management center 1-1 determines the identity of the user 1-17 by referring to the user 1-17 number and password of the user 1-17, and the user 1-17 is the location object. In case of acting on (10-1), personal ranking management space (1-5) is assigned directly to user 1-17 (without waiting for input by user 1-17 to specify personal management space or by default). Can be moved to

If you are ranked first or higher in a category, tangible and intangible rewards may follow. Such a reward can inspire the user 1-17's loyalty and participation in a game or the like and stimulate a desire for achievement.

In the case of implementation of some or all of the present invention, economically or psychologically valuable things (hereinafter referred to as 'valuables' 2-12b) may be collected and formed. The value 2-12b is stored in the form of the value DB 2-12c in the ranking management center 1-1. An example of value (2-12b) is as follows.

First, it is a value (2-12b) in games. Automatic / externally collected contents related to the performance process of the game of the first or the highest ranked person (data of the performance of the game, etc., if there is an automatic analysis tool, the performance result of the game of the person) 2-2) automatically analyzed data, strategies entered by third parties, analysis data, performance results, avatars, items, scores, status, authority, comments, conversations / conversations with others, Digitalized content of evaluation materials and their own publicly available content (how-to know-how in games, learning methods, problem solving methods, training methods, information on the tools / instruments / machines / user programs / media / advices used), There is a secret, any right for a person with a dominant sphere (11-1), such as the right to play a game with him, or other digitalization of his own disclosure.

Second, it is value (2-12b) in commodities. Third-party evaluation data itself (total of the results of the evaluation and its analysis), evaluation-based data (total of information that has been investigated, entered, analyzed and processed by a third party before or after the product), and these There may be data on trends over time, by region and by other criteria.

These values 2-12b themselves or their rights may be sold to the user 1-17 or a third party in an online or offline manner.

The above-mentioned value (2-12b) holds the concept of ownership, disposition right, management right, access right / use right.

The right to the value (2-12b) is essentially a contract between three parties, such as a ranking management center (1-1), a source of ranking basic data (1-2a), a user (1-17), etc. By this principle. In particular, the ownership of automatic / external collected content or direct public content entered by a third party must be 100% owned by a third party or direct public, or a process of obtaining consent for disposal or management must be included.

The reward for value (2-12b) is as follows.

Firstly, the ranking management center 1-1 or the producer / operator such as a game compensates. When the subject of the e-commerce becomes the ranking management center 1-1, the ranking management center 1-1 contributes all or part of the profits generated as a result of the e-commerce to the formation of the value 2-12b. Can be distributed to. At this time, if it is necessary to obtain the consent of the person who contributed to the formation of value (2-12b), prior agreement, after-consent, and only if a certain value (2-12b) consent only, the collective agreement of whether or not according to the terms There may be enemy treatment. The ranking management center 1-1 can notify the person of the occurrence and the result of the electronic commerce.

The person who contributed to the formation of the value (2-12b) can be the subject and operate the e-commerce. At this time, the ranking management center (1-1) may broker this transaction, and may provide services such as permission, authentication, payment, security, transmission, or any support for other electronic commerce for each transaction. have. In addition, in the case where the person is not connected to the ranking management center 1-1, the person may be entrusted with the transaction (instead of concluding the transaction under certain conditions).

Second, access rights / use rights to compensation can be operated for a fee. This is explained in detail in the virtual community section.

The e-commerce on value (2-12b) consists of the following steps.

First, it is the display phase of contents about valuables (2-12b). The contents 2-12b are made into contents, and the users 1-17 provide information (teaser information / contents, etc.) for the selection of the users 1-17, such as the title and general contents. The host of the exhibition may be the ranking management center 1-1, or may be an operator / producer of a game. Also, in special cases, the content provider may be provided, which will be described in detail in the virtual community part of the present invention.

Second, the content selection process of the user 1-17. The process of selection follows the process of selection of goods in normal electronic commerce.

Third is the charging process. Charging applies various existing charging methods such as electronic money, mobile phone use and internet banking.

Fourth, the step of giving the user 1-17 the right to access, use, and access the content, or downloading or presenting the content to the user 1-17 is a step.

Organizers or providers such as games may disclose the conditions of the rewards, the contents of the rewards, and the like, and may receive the rewards according to the achievement of the users 1-17. Particularly, a person such as a ranking management center 1-1 or a provider such as a game or a product, etc., to a user 1-17 who has a certain rank within a certain category or has secured the control area 11-1. Can provide you with mileage, prizes, games, vouchers, products, services, and other rewards. At this time, the prize money or mileage, etc. may be restricted so that it can be used only in the ranking management center 1-1 or in a virtual space related thereto.

Users 1-17 may participate for a game or the like for free or for free. In this case, the details of the case of paid participation. Participation in the fee includes 1) the cost of the entry fee, and 2) the direct and indirect (eg, the purchase of the software in the game room and the use of the game in the game room). Common sense.) Expenditure, 3) equipment / devices / machines / instruments for games, etc. (If this apparatus and games are related, purchasing the equipment is indirect participation in games, etc.). In other words, in a game that requires a device, etc., a supplier such as a game may sell the device, etc., and operate the game free of charge, etc. 4) In the case of charging for the use of the game itself (paid, part-time, flat, etc.), 5) Use of time (The time of users 1-17 has minimal economic value, especially in the case of promotion, advertisement, etc., beta test, etc.)

In the case of the above paid participation, operators such as games may directly or indirectly or circumvent the certain economically valuable money equivalents (money, mileage, service points, access to goods or services, promotions) from users 1-17. , Any or all of what comes from the users 1-17, and independently provided by operators, with any economic value, such as advertising effect. Therefore, those involved in the operation of games, etc. have a justification of compensation.

The compensation method is as follows.

First is the public stage of policy on compensation. Equal or discriminatory in a game for a certain period of time (there may be no time limit, and if you are first, you may have a policy that always rewards you), a category, or any other ranking in the first or higher rankings. As a step to inform the provision of money equivalents.

Second, the user 1-17 performs the game after the user 1-17 confirmation step, and the results are processed to determine the ranking.

Third, the user 1-17 receives the money equivalent online or offline as a reward.

The reward may be a non-monetary equivalent of a certain value, such as an avatar, a digital image, a medal, a level display, or an ornament 10-6. Of course, some of these may be exchangeable within a particular game or the like.

When displaying the ranking results on the electronic map, not only a few ranking lists are listed, but also various visual and auditory decorations (10-6) (such as combining audio files) can be made. The user 1-17 can lower the affection for his ranking management space through the decoration 10-6, and when his decoration 10-6 is displayed in the ranking management space accessible to third parties. It may have a general emotional and economic effect associated with the decoration of the sense of superiority (10-6). The top rank among the largest number of users (1-17) of online games such as StarCraft is very small, and if you break it down and rank it by region or organization, you will be like the best person in Starcraft in Sillim-dong. You get a lot of top rankers and you get benefits such as checking presence, showing off, and immersion into the game in addition to the direct pleasure you get from the game.To maximize this, you can wrap and decorate the results of the ranking on electronic maps or cyberspace. It is possible to provide a decoration (10-6) capable of 10-6). In addition, competition is promoted by restricting the authority of the decoration 10-6 according to the ranking.

The ranking management space includes a ranking management space accessible to third parties and a personal ranking management space 1-5 for each user 1-17.

In a ranking management space accessible to third parties, a plurality of users 1-17 may contend in one location object 10-1, and thus, the location object 10-1 or a part of the management space may be used. The decoration 10-6 is based on the policy of the ranking management center 1-1. If your ranking is number one, you will see the color, symbol, shape, pattern, picture, symbol (including avatar), shapes, marks, and characters you want on the electronic map (1-4a) that shows the category you are in first. , Images, sounds, etc. may be displayed or decorated 10-6 in one or a combination thereof. Various elements necessary for these decorations 10-6 can be provided by the ranking management center 1-1 for free or free of charge. In addition, the user 1-17 himself designes or decorates the virtual space on the electronic map 1-4a, which has his own ranking or the like, with only elements compatible with the various elements provided by the management system or with the management system. You can do (10-6).

At this time, since the decoration 10-6 of the personal ranking management space 1-5 is an arbitrary space of the user 1-17, the user 1-17 has full control of the decoration 10-6. The center 1-1 may sell a decorative item 10-6 (including an avatar or the like) to the user 1-17 for a fee or free.)

The method of this decoration 10-6 is as follows.

The electronic map 1-4a is placed in the ranking management space of the person who provides the content such as the ranking management space of the ranking management center 1-1, the game, or the personal ranking management space 1-5 of the user 1-17. When appearing, the top or top ranker of a category is selected as the ruler of that category to indicate that the area is the dominant area of the top or top ranker. It promotes self-gratification and satisfies the desire to show by letting the digital photo of the ruler or the ruler attach the desired symbol. In the simplest case, when the rank is high, the area is displayed in bright and colorful colors, and when the rank is below a certain level, it is expressed in the dark.

In the case of the ornament (10-6) on the electronic map of the personal ranking management space (1-5), the ornament (10-6) is given regardless of the ranking, or the upper limit or the limit of the ornament (10-6) depending on the rank. May be given. For example, the first place allows you to embellish any item of your choice, and the second place allows you to select only items that are discriminated by rank. Make sure you pay the cost of decorations (10-6) for colorful and worthy items. These items may be provided by the ranking management center 1-1 for free or free of charge.

Those ornaments (10-6) appear unconditionally on the electronic map (1-4a), or give higher rankers the right to choose the option to display the ornaments (10-6) and to be in the lower rankings. Only basic electronic maps can be displayed.

Rank or level of the user (1-17) such as a game by issuing a cyber certificate or a decoration (10-6) that is displayed and authenticated and issued by the ranking management center (1-1) or its operator. To display. That is, it is possible to attach a certificate to the position or representation in the cyber space where the user 1-17, such as the home page of the user 1-17 or the digital business card, is displayed and displayed. For example, the StarCraft Seoul City's No. 1 digital business card can be marked with "StarCraft Seoul's No. 1 Hong Gil-Dong" by a uniquely designed emblem or emblem by the Ranking Management Center (1-1). In the case of the ranking, the restaurant's homepage, "OOOOO elected godfather, customer satisfaction first place restaurant" can be displayed.

These emblems or emblems are the creations of the ranking manager and have exclusive rights to design, use, distribution and transfer rights, and are only granted and loaned to those authorized by the Ranking Management Center (1-1). At this time, when another user (1-17) clicks and interacts with such a display, the homepage managed by the ranking management center 1-1 appears and stimulates the curiosity of the other user (1-17), 1-17) can be promoted. That is, when evaluation information of the general user 1-17 is needed, such as a commerce, the evaluation information obtaining system 1-9 serves to easily operate.

This concept of decoration (10-6) is further extended to make cyber characters of users (1-17) such as games in cyber space, that is, avatars, and act in cyber space. Clothes, tools, or embellished items can be differentiated according to the ranking of the ranking. That is, the authority, content, method, purchase range, etc. of the decoration 10-6 may vary according to the size of the dominant region 11-1 and the ranking within a certain category.

If the user 1-17 selects an arbitrary category, and each unit is selected first for each of them in a particular game or the like, each management system displays this unit on a map or in a diagram or the like in the above manner.

If the category selection of the user 1-17 has been previously selected, the already formed ranking in this category is displayed for each category.

There is a case where the user 1-17 is participating in a game or the like on a plurality of networks. In other words, suppose that a game is played on several networks such as a, b, c, d, and e. If there are ranking basic data 1-2a for each of these, ranking related information can be generated for each of them based on the data. The ranking of the user 1-17 may be displayed on a separate electronic map 1-4a according to the specification of a game or the like, and ranking related information about a plurality of games and the like may be displayed on one electronic map 1-4a. I can show you. The information or ranking for the quiz match b is managed independently of the information or ranking for game a, but may be displayed in combination in the display. And rankings for these various types of games can be managed in conjunction. In particular, since a game portal has a plurality of games, etc., in one site, the game portals can be grouped (for example, a board game group, a card game group, etc.) to derive a ranking for each group. It can be better applied to the case of implementing the configuration for each of these has been described above individually.

When the ranking is displayed on a display medium such as an electronic map, the user 1-17 operates the ranking display system through interaction with the display medium so that the ranking is displayed in a desired manner. The main purpose of this interaction is to make it easy and effective to select the category to which the user 1-17 belongs.

The ranking management center (1-1) or a content provider such as a game may provide all or a specific portion of information necessary for identifying an address, affiliation, age, gender, or other personal information about a user (1-17) such as a game or a product. You may also be asked for input. Such personal information may be used as basic data for the formation of a necessary category for efficiently displaying the ranking on the electronic map and for the discovery of a category having a first or higher ranking.

In games and the like, the ranking management center 1-1 processes various vertical and horizontal hierarchies to which the users 1-17 belong and rank information in the hierarchies to most satisfy the needs of the users 1-17. The default starting line (the default category) can be selected by analyzing the usage habits that have been given or past, and the position on the electronic map where the ranking of the most frequently used categories appears. This method of determining the starting position of the ranking is to analyze the IP address of the computer that the user (1-17) accesses for the user (1-17) who requests the ranking for the commerce and display the ranking for the desired commerce by region. It can be written and applied in a similar way.

On the electronic map 1-4a, the user 1-17 can select a mouse input, double click, button, menu bar selection, navigation through peripheral input devices such as a joystick or a keypad, a keyboard input method using a touch screen, a shortcut key, In the case of virtual space using VR, the user can interact with the electronic map through various input methods such as the input method that reflects the senses of the five senses in reality. Through this interaction, the ranking of each category on the electronic map 1-4a can be viewed. That is, when a specific point on the electronic map 1-4a is clicked or the like, one or more categories to which the specific point belongs are displayed, and the ranking or the like in the category is displayed. At this time, the user 1-17 must specify the type and category of the game.

A category in which the user selects a pointer device (such as a pointing device, a mouse, a joystick, coordinate input, a voice, a pupil, or any means for specifying a position such as touching in the case of a touch screen) on the electronic map 1-4a. If you place it in the electronic map (1-4a), the result of statistically processing the performance result (2-2) of your ranking, record, game, etc. targeting the category, or the ranking of others in the category is displayed. It can be displayed automatically on the image.

This is done as follows. First, the position on the electronic map 1-4a corresponding to the pointing device of the user 1-17 in a particular mode (eg, viewing results, etc.) is determined. Second, the data DB corresponding to the position on the electronic map 1-4a is searched. The data DB stores all data processing results such as rankings in a DB and is managed by a management system (this management system may be the same subject as a content provider such as a game), and the computer of the user 1-17 is networked. The management system is connected, the position on the electronic map 1-4a is transmitted to the management system, and the management system extracts data corresponding to the position. Third, the extracted data is transmitted to the computer of the user 1-17, and the result is displayed to the user 1-17. The management system receives the performance result (2-2) data of the game, etc., calculates various statistical values such as ranking, win or lose, win rate, overall score, score (score or point) and transmits them to the user (1-17). In addition, since it is a ranking of others related to the category, it is possible to calculate and transmit information of other persons.

The collection of users 1-17 gathered for a certain purpose of the virtual space is commonly referred to as "community" or "virtual community". www.freechal.com is a representative virtual space that represents communities, and large online service operators generally provide community services. Since the implementation of the present invention includes the concept of category, this may be a medium for forming a community, and may perform performances such as games and evaluation and reward activities such as goods through the community. A person providing a virtual community space is called a 'community provider', and a set of minimum users (1-17) sharing the same property in one or more community providers is called a 'unit community'. In a unit community, there are usually names (names), managers (such as poets, masts, etc.) and various activities and information performed in the community. In addition, there is a community-constituted content 2-12a such as a name, information about a member, content shared by a member, and an expression format of the content, such that a specific virtual space is recognized as a community.

There may be a method of generating a community by category, 1) a method of voluntary creation by users 1-17, 2) a method already provided by the ranking management center 1-1, and 2) a mixing method of both. In the present invention, since rankings are determined based on various categories, communities can be generated in units of categories. In this case, in the method of determining the administrator of the community, 1) the method determined by the users (1-17), 2) the method in which the ranking No. 1 becomes an administrator automatically, 3) the method in which the ranking No. 1 is designated, and 4) the manager in the ranking management center (1 -1) can be specified 5) may not have a manager.

A person who is ranked first or first, whose category is the dominant category 11-1, etc., can be the manager of this unit community. At this time, the management authority for the community (decoration (10-6), part of the e-commerce management, part of the compensation management) and the like can be the person. In other words, it is necessary to give overwhelming authority to the first place in order to encourage compensation for the first place and the concentration of efforts toward the first place. That is, the owners of the first or higher ranking may perform various activities in the electronic commerce including exhibition, transaction management, and receipt of commerce for the commerce related value (2-12b). These actions are performed under the permission and supervision of the ranking management center 1-1.

As one action is analyzed in various categories in a game or the like, one user 1-17 can be automatically assigned to a unit community based on the various categories. In the case of first or higher ranking for each unit community, the content of the game-centered community may be implemented.

The approach to category-level communities is as follows:

Clicking on a specific location on the electronic map (1-4a) 1) Move to the unit community by default, 2) Press the right button of a mouse or the like to display a menu. When there may be a choice for -1), there is a way to select and move unit communities. 3) How to move by entering a zip code when the unit community is a regional unit, 4) Clicking on community indicating contents (e.g. radio button labeled "community"), etc. How to automatically move to the unit community based on user (1-17) information, 5) find the least significant site group in the community hierarchy or directory ( www.yahoo.com ) How to go, etc.), the user (1-17) selects, 6) how to move directly by entering the name or unique number of the community 7) how to automatically move to the unit community when the game is finished There may be a variety of methods.

Various activities take place in the virtual space, but the configuration of the present invention will be described based on electronic commerce.

Values 2-12b of a person with a first or higher ranking in a category or higher may be subject to commerce.

First, there is a stage of disclosure or application for disclosure (from a third party) on the value (2-12b) of the person with the first or higher ranking. This entails the specification of value (2-12b), which means that a person with a first or higher ranking contentizes their value (2-12b) and presents it to a third party, or manages the ranking. The center 1-1 obtains their permission, or optionally, the contents 2-12b are made available for disclosure to third parties. The method of disclosure depends on the method designated by the ranking management center 1-1 or the community operation method. Requests for disclosure by third parties can be made directly by e-mail or bulletin board to the first or higher ranking persons or by e-mail, bulletin board or other means of communication to the Ranking Management Center (1-1). There is this. Public applications include, for example, teaching partners such as teaching, games, and training partners.

Second is the bargaining stage. The transaction is one in which the ranking management center 1-1 intervenes and directly occurs between the users 1-17. Intervention by the Ranking Management Center (1-1) includes, but is not limited to, cases where the disclosure or application for disclosure occurs through the Ranking Management Center (1-1) and, if not, the payment of money or other economically valuable equivalents. As a result, the ranking management center 1-1 mediates at the transaction negotiation stage. If there is an application for disclosure from a third party, the ranking management center (1-1) will contact the person with the first or higher ranking, or find the optimal person with the desired value (2-12b) by the third party. Can do transaction negotiation service. The bargaining process may take place in a private community space managed by those with first or higher rankings. That is, a person with a first or higher ranking may act as an administrator in a normal BBS, and have control over the community within the policy of the ranking management center 1-1.

Third is the trading and billing phase. Once a deal is negotiated, the actual transaction and billing process remains, which uses the usual means of charging on the Internet. However, at this time, the ranking management center 1-1 may intervene in the whole billing process, increase the credibility, or receive a certain portion of the billing in exchange for brokerage. In the actual transaction, the ranking management center (1-1) or individual community may provide a place for teaching and practice, and send specific values (2-12b) that the third party wants to the third party. Can be.

If only the person with the first or higher ranking in this unit category gains economic and mental gains through the trade of value (2-12b) or knowledge, information, content, etc., it is the user (1-17) of the game or the like. It can be a booster for competition to get the top or top rankings. Through this, the network traffic of the ranking management space that provides services such as games or the virtual space that provides services such as games increases, the number of users (1-17), the purchase of games, etc. increases, the use time increases, and the dependency strengthens. , Satisfaction, etc. can be obtained.

The ranking management center 1-1 collects, stores, analyzes, processes, processes, publishes, outputs the results of the ranking basic data 1-2, game progress, operation, matching of opponents, management of rankings, Display on the electronic map (1-4a), communication with other ranking management center (1-1), access management of users (1-17), commerce for value (2-12b), other games, etc. or directly Or in part or all of activities such as conducting indirectly related e-commerce and hosting, managing, hosting and sponsoring various events related to games or goods, and promotions for games and broadcasting etc. Refers to the virtual space on the network to perform the. The ranking management center (1-1) includes ranking basic data DB (1-2b), user information DB (1-3), electronic map DB (1-4b), personal ranking management space (1-5), and community related space. (1-6), e-commerce processing routine (1-7), network management unit (1-8), evaluation information acquisition system (1-9), main server (1-10), ranking DB (1-11a) And a ranking DB (1-11a) server, various DBs and DBMSs (1-13), a user access management unit (1-21), other role-playing spaces (1-14) on the specification, a ranking management program (1-22), and the like. It consists of part or all of. The individual ranking management center 1-1 may exist in the ranking management center 1-1 virtual space, but the ranking management center ( 1-1) can be maintained. Of course, in the case of the P2P scheme in which the concept of the server is abandoned, it will be a more general configuration that the ranking management center 1-1 exists in the computer of each user 1-17. At this time, the ranking management program of each user 1-17 maintains fairness such as ranking display and management.

Each ranking management center 1-1 essentially includes the following elements. First, it serves as an input / output path for communication and ranking-related data with the outside to the network manager 1-8. Second, the user 1-17 access management unit plays the role of identifying the identity of the user 1-17 or identifying the identity of the person who accesses the ranking management center 1-1, authentication, and the like. Of course, there is a DB that stores information about the user 1-17 or the accessor. Third, there are various DBs related to ranking, and there are DBMS (1-13) (database management system) and other conventional devices, systems or programs related to DB as long as DB exists. Fourth, there is a ranking information system 1-12 in the ranking management center 1-1, which will be described in detail in the ranking information system 1-12. In this specification, the action of the ranking information system 1-12 is described as a function of the ranking management center 1-1. That is, the function performed by the ranking management center 1-1 may be a function of the ranking management center 1-1 including the same. In short, if there is a patent office under the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy, the work performed by the Office becomes that of the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy when viewed from a higher-level perspective, such as the ministry.

The ranking management center 1-1 may be configured as follows with respect to the position on the network and the other ranking management center 1-1. The ranking management center 1-1 may be unique or may exist in plural numbers for individual games and the like, and they may be connected to a network to exchange information with each other. Alternatively, in the case of P2P, the ranking management center 1-1 may exist by the number of users 1-17. In addition, the ranking management center 1-1 is an independent ranking management center 1-1 and a dependent ranking management center 1-1 depending on whether or not there is independence in relation to the subject of supply such as a game or a subject of evaluation space such as a product. Can be divided into 1). The independent ranking management center 1-1 can expect fairness of ranking management.

The ranking management center 1-1, which is operated and managed legally or virtually independently of the provider, such as a game, is called an independent ranking management center 1-1. There are an integrated ranking management center 1-1 and an individual ranking management center 1-1.

The integrated ranking management center (1-1) is a ranking management center (1-4) when the ranking basic data (1-2a) generated by two or more games is transmitted to one ranking management center (2-4), and managed. Say 1). There may be several subjects for one particular game or the like. When the ranking basic data 1-2a of two or more subjects are gathered in one place even for the same game or the like, the integrated ranking management center 1-1 is provided. Therefore, the integrated ranking management center 1-1 necessarily has a classification by game or optionally by a provider. Of course, when the information of the user 1-17 is inputted, the ranking management center 1-1 recognizes the user 1-17 and the ranking management which is directly related to the user 1-17 primarily. It may be moved directly to a specific position of the center 1-1.

The individual ranking management center 1-1 is a ranking management center 1-1 which exists independently for one game or the like. That is, the performance result (2-2) of a particular game or the like is transmitted (2-4) to this individual ranking management center, processed in the manner described by the present invention, and with the user (1-17) and other related parties. Interact

* Exist in the virtual space on the network that services a number of games with a specific relationship with the game, such as a virtual space managed by the provider of the game, etc. directly or indirectly owns or manages the game, such as a game portal, etc. It can be said that the subordinate ranking management center (1-1). The subordinate ranking management center 1-1 has a feature that the ranking basic data 1-2-2 does not deviate from a legal entity, an actual possession or a management entity as compared with the independent ranking management center 1-1. That is, in these cases, the transmission of the ranking basic data 1-2a to a game provided by an external third party other than the game owned and managed by them, etc. has a structure that excludes in principle.

The concept of the integrated ranking management center 1-1 or the individual ranking management center 1-1 can be established even in the subordinate ranking management center 1-1.

The ranking information system (1-12) is located in the ranking management center (1-1), and is constructed to efficiently collect, store, update, process, analyze, and present all types of ranking information. It refers to the aggregate of ranking data and human resources such as standards and interfaces. This conceptually occupies a key part of the ranking management center 1-1 itself or the ranking management center 1-1. Store all information such as the information of the user 1-17, the category information, the electronic map information, the results of the game, the ranking basic information such as the evaluation, the ranking information processed based on this, and process such information. -17), interact with the user (1-17), the content provider or their system to show the ranking information on the electronic map to the user (1-17), user (1-17), evaluator, administrator, observer, etc. It is the system that is the subject.

The relationship between a content provider such as a game (including a provider of information on a product or service subject to evaluation or transaction, as follows), the user 1-17 and the ranking management center 1-1 is basically 3 There may be branches.

The relationship between the ranking information system 1-12 and the user 1-17 is as follows.

First, when a content provider such as a game manages a ranking in a game provided by the user, that is, a content provider and a management system are the same subject, and a 1: 1 relationship with the user 1-17. In this case, the above process is basically applied. When one content provider provides a plurality of games or the like, the content provider may integrate and manage the ranking of the participants for the plurality of games or the like.

Secondly, a content provider managing a ranking such as a game, a ranking management center 1-1 and a user 1-17 such as a game operated independently of each other, may have a three-sided relationship. The relationship between them can be formed in several detail types as follows. First, the user 1-17 directly accesses the content provider to play a game, etc. The content provider provides the management system with the result of the game, etc. The user 1-17 reconnects to the management system through the content provider or Or connect directly to see your rankings. Secondly, the user 1-17 connects to the management system using the ranking management center 1-1 as a portal, and accesses a game or the like from the management system to play a game, and the content provider such as a game. The results are provided to the management system so that the management system can display the ranking of each user 1-17 based on these results. This method is particularly effective when there are many games managed by the management system, and can maximize the convenience of each user 1-17.

Third, the user 1-17 accesses a content provider that provides a game or the like in his homepage or a virtual space created for himself. At this time, the management system should exist on the homepage of the user 1-17 or its virtual space, and the personal management system of the user 1-17 may be provided by a content provider, or a person who operates the entire management system In order to provide a personal management system to the user's (1-17) homepage or his or her own virtual space, or by interlocking the entire management system with the personal management system, data processing is performed by the entire management system and the results are sent to the personal management system for personal use. The management system may take the form of showing the result to the users 1-17. Here, the content provider and the entire management system provider may coincide.

For each user 1-17, a display system for the performance result 2-2 of the game 1-1 provided by the management system can be envisioned. The management system can provide each user 1-17 with a management space (hereinafter referred to as homepage homepage) that manages their results collectively. Essentially, this homepage includes categories such as games, electronic maps (1-4a) that show your rankings, and diagrams. Optionally, you can find cyber emblems (referrals, marks, symbols, Provides a game record or game history that includes pictograms, emblems, and commendations, collectively referred to below as the "signs"), dates, opponents, results, victory points, and other game-related matters.

Searching for the ranking related information desired by the ranking management center 1-1 managed by the ranking management is called a search.

In the case of application targets of various types, such as in the case of rankings for commerce, directory-type services are possible to provide complex information. In other words, the directory type service is used to express the service hierarchy of the tree type structure such as Korean food restaurant rib restaurant. Following this directory structure leads to the desired ranking application.

It is possible to use an internal search engine in the ranking display system to supplement the visual limitations of the directory structure and to search efficiently. When the keyword "Chinese house" is inserted in the search box, the Chinese restaurant may be moved to the category "Chinese house", and the map of the geographical area to which the user (1-17) belongs may be displayed and the ranking of each region may be displayed. By intelligentizing such a search engine, a sentence type natural language search engine can be used. "The best Chinese restaurant with the best customer service and the most delicious Chinese restaurant in Sillim-dong?" The search engine may search through a plurality of DBs of the ranking management center 1-1 and associate them visually on an electronic map.

You can think of ways to automate and streamline the search process as much as possible. First, based on the user's personal information (2-1) or the location on the physical space of the connected network, that is, the location information based on the IP address of the computer, the location of the corresponding base station of the wireless network, or the Global Positioning System (GPS). The local category is started based on the location information, and the user 1-17 proposes a list of the favorite categories through the activity log analysis of the user 1-17. A detailed description of this process is provided under the heading 'Regional Commerce'.

In a game or the like, there is a need to select an opponent to play the game, etc. This is referred to as matching or matching opponent. If a game or the like is executed in the same category and the ranking is changed as a result of the execution, the changed information or ranking is displayed on the electronic map to update the electronic map 1-4a. Using the concept of object category (8-2) and surroundings, it is possible to select randomly the matching opponent as the opponent who is not far off centered on the category belonging to the higher ranking. By allowing you to choose opponents with more similar skills, you can increase interest and tension in games.

In other words, if the opponent you want to play is currently connected to the network, you can apply for a game by e-mail, etc. If you are not connected to the network, you can specify a category and apply for a match later. .

The battles played on the network can be divided into two categories. One is defined as the way in which 1: 1 or group-to-group interactions in real time, like StarCraft, are called direct interactions, which most TV quiz programs take. do. On the other hand, two or more groups indirectly play a game or the like on a same or similar location object 10-1 object over time, and compare and compare the results to determine the ranking. ) Is defined as an interaction method. An example of the latter is that different questions may be asked to take a math test online, to score and rank the results, and to have a question bank or question pool, such as TOEIC or TOEFL, at the same time or at different times. There may be a solution to the problem, and the results are reflected in the scores and ranked according to the category.

In direct interactive games, winning and losing are determined by two things: One is the champion with the target ranking in a challenger and championship mode, the one who challenges the ranking is the challenger, and reflects the result of their direct match, There is a way to combine the cases and the results of more than one match. The other is to determine the ranking based on the result of the total match in the category irrespective of the opponent and the method of determining the ranking by combining the result of the match in the other category with the previous one.

In an indirect interactive game, winning or losing is a method in which a management system evaluates the results of a game or a task that can be recognized as identical or identical, and ranks the ranking based on the evaluation.

Recommendation means that the ranking management center 1-1 provides the user 1-17 with certain information regarding the ranking. The user 1-17 may have no or insufficient information on the effect of the specific actions of the other users 1-17 on their ranking, etc., overall information on the rise of the ranking, special events, rewards, etc. provided by the provider of the game. Can be. That is, if the user 1-17 has enough information about them, the user 1-17 performs the information to raise the ranking in or out of a specific category, or a greater economy in a game or the like. Other satisfaction is recommended.

Recommendations are as follows.

First, there is a choice as to whether to approve the recommendation of the user 1-17. If there is no special choice, approving the recommendation can handle the governance or interface.

Second, the ranking management center (1-1) systematically and detailed analyzes based on the overall data on the users (1-17) (this analysis can use the general techniques used in normal customer relationship management (CRM)). Recommendation contents are generated by digitalizing what the user 1-17 wants or wants and the policy of the ranking management center 1-1 acknowledges.

Third, the recommended content is transmitted to the user 1-17.

A simple example of a recommendation might be: The user 1-17 does not necessarily have his address or the like as his category, or only one category (i.e., he may live away from his hometown or go to a king's country). ), The ranking management center 1-1 analyzes the ranking basic data 1-2a of the user 1-17, and the user 1-17 in relation to the ranking grant policy of the ranking management center 1-1. Can have a ranking of 1st or higher in other special categories, it may be possible to ask the user (1-17) whether he or she is willing to designate that particular category, either independently or in conjunction with relevant materials. You can also make recommendations.

The ranking management center 1-1 can hold an overwhelming amount of information than the user 1-17, and can analyze various correlations that cannot be analyzed by the user 1-17. If the recommendation is objectively or subjectively constant enough that the recommendation is subject to the transaction depending on the characteristics of the recommendation, it may be the subject of electronic commerce. In the present invention, all the recommendations are delivered to the user 1-17 in a contented state, which is referred to as recommended content.

The method of commerce for the recommended content follows the method of electronic commerce for the normal content. (There are various methods of online commerce such as reverse auction, auction, exhibition sale, order sale, custom sale.) The subject may be the ranking management center 1-1, and the holder of the first or higher ranking may be the subject of the recommendation. This recommendation may be particularly well implemented for games, learning related content or products or services.

The ranking information of the users 1-17 of the ranking application targets such as games may be a virtual space on the network operated by the ranking management center 1-1, a homepage, a virtual space provided by a content provider such as a game, a homepage, or the like. The user 1-17 may access and obtain a virtual space or a homepage operated by the user 1-17. In particular, the ranking management center (1-1) continuously sends the ranking information to the homepage or virtual space operated by the user (1-17) himself, and if it is managed by various application targets and time, the user (1-17) Can be used as an achievement management system.

In particular, as described above in the data processing process, the effectiveness of the achievement management system is doubled when various information processing is possible by analyzing the results such as game and more. For example, in a strategy simulation game, rankings by granularity such as opponent win rankings, mission completion ranks by game (territory expansion ranks, mission completion time ranks, unit creation ranks, resource picking ranks, opponent race wipeout ranks, etc.) Can be used as a means to identify the characteristics of each game user (1-17) and improve the strategy, tactics.

In addition, by applying the ranking concept to application targets such as mock exams and quizzes that measure the learning level other than the game, the ranking information for each subject such as weekly, monthly, and yearly is not only a comprehensive ranking management site. Let's say that. The learner can visually grasp this chronological ranking information from the electronic map provided on the homepage where the information that is tested each time is linked through his or her own virtual space or e-mail. This can be used as a learner's achievement management or goal management system. A hierarchical decoration (10-6) can be given to promote achievement motivation. If the ranking is automatically linked with the changing ranking, the character or cyber pet's appearance can be enlarged or grown, and the splendor of the outerwear can be added. As this progresses and the rank drops, the process retreats.

The management of such achievements may be handled for each time period, and may be expressed by how the improvement of the rank according to the improvement of the achievement is reflected by the change of the dominant region 11-1.

For example, suppose you have a crossword puzzle with a daily game event. One user 1-17 participates in the event every day to play the game and the rank of the day is determined. Once these ranks are stacked, they can be grouped into categories and visualized graphically. Ranking trends, such as bar graphs and line graphs, show the results of game participation at a glance.

In order to quickly and accurately accumulate and update ranking information, a reward system for ranking information providers can be considered.

First, there is simply a method of immediately reducing the use cost at a predetermined rate in exchange for the user 1-17 using the object and providing evaluation information. On the spot where the user 1-17 connects to the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 with a terminal device carried by an individual, such as a mobile phone, or uses the evaluation target with a terminal device such as a computer held by the evaluation target. This model is applicable when connected.

Second, if the spatial location for inputting the evaluation information and the location using the evaluation object are different, and thus the expenses cannot be reduced immediately, a discount coupon can be issued. These discount coupons are digitalized and issued electronically through the network. The discount coupons issued to the evaluator can be printed on paper or stored in a terminal device that the evaluator can carry so that the ranking application system can recognize them. Alternatively, the evaluator's identity authentication and compensation management system 119 (119 ') issues a discount coupon directly to the ranking application system and hands over the identification information for the owner of this coupon to be confirmed by the user (1-17). can do. For example, in exchange for providing evaluation information to a mobile phone terminal, a discount coupon number can be transmitted via SMS or wireless Internet and shown to the counterpart of the transaction. Alternatively, after the discount coupon is used for a transaction, if the unique number of the discount coupon is transmitted to the valuation information compensation system by the commerce provider, the reward system will reward the transaction user later.

Third, user (1-17) authentication and access to the user (1-17) DB as a terminal device that can register and authenticate the user (1-17) for more sophisticated and extensive compensation system operation and The reward management system grants cyber points (any point system that can be accumulated electronically on-line, such as cyber money, electronic money, etc.) that can be earned in exchange for providing ranking information accumulated. Accumulated cyber points depend on the number of evaluations and the sincerity of the evaluation contents. The terminal device used in this case is the same concept as the terminal device used in the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9, and may be physically identical or may be operated separately. When the cyber points granted are accumulated above a predetermined threshold, the transaction price can be used together with cash for payment after using the transaction target. The accumulated cyber points can be used only when using the application target where the evaluation data is input. It can be created or introduced into the concept of merchants, which can be used for any pre-promised and collected trading partner.

In addition, it is classified as follows according to the direct provider of the reward provided.

First, the manager of the ranking management center 1-1 pays the provider of the evaluation information. The source of the payment paid comes from the resources that the ranking management center 1-1 makes on its own, or from individuals, groups, organizations, and businesses that are subject to evaluation information. Or, it comes from the user 1-17 of the ranking information. In this case, when the ranking information published and published on the electronic map is very valuable information, the user 1-17 using the ranking information pays for the information. to be.

Second, the user 1-17 who inputs the evaluation information sees the ranking on the electronic map 1-4a created on the basis of the inputted evaluation information. It is calculated at the time of payment after the transaction, or collected and paid later.

A program and / or a machine containing the program for generating all or part of the ranking-related construction described in the present invention based on the ranking basic data (1-2a) proposed by the present invention. Computer devices and / or networks, such as, instruments, are referred to as ranking platforms. If the ranking platform exists, the ranking basic data (1-2a) is a game result, a test result, a quiz result, regardless of the source of the ranking basic data (1-2a), such as evaluation information of prizes, etc. Can be entered and the same / similar results can be derived.

The following embodiments are described under the following assumptions.

First, the examples are illustrative only and do not cover the whole idea of the invention. That is, the scope of the inventive concept described above is broader than the embodiment only understood in detail in the embodiment.

Second, the embodiment includes the definitions of terms, electronic maps, location objects 10-1, occurrence of rankings, indications, ranking management center 1-1, user 1-17 management, and the like described above. It is based on the existence of all or part of the contents. In other words, on the premise of all the descriptions given before the present specific embodiment, each specific embodiment will be described focusing on the additions and additions in the invention. In the above description of the present invention, since most of the games such as StarCraft have been exemplified, the contents are naturally assumed. Therefore, in the specific embodiments, all or part of the above-described contents and those described below are actually combined, and in order to avoid repetition of the description, those which may be common to each embodiment have been described in front of the specific embodiments. . By way of example, it is not to be excluded that the "decoration (10-6)" or the like is coupled to the embodiment even if the embodiment does not specifically refer to the "decoration (10-6)".

Third, the various things that are held in the specific embodiment are closely related to the sources of the ranking basic data 1-2-2a. When the ranking basic data 1-2a is obtained in the ranking management center 1-1, some or all of the common processes described above are applied as they are. Of course, in addition to the common process described above to each specific embodiment, a special configuration may be added according to each embodiment, which will be described in detail.

Fourth, when the concept of content can be applied to the contents of these games, the contents of the game, etc. are referred to as 'game contents'. The same applies to quizzes and tests. Online or offline quizzes (quizzes available on the Internet, such as www.quizquiz.com , quiz programs on TV or radio stations, quiz content from offline media such as newspapers or magazines, and quizzes on personal mobile devices (such as mobile phones)). It is to be recognized as a quiz in the recognition system of ordinary people given in question form for the purpose of competing or evaluating the knowledge or wit, etc.), any competitions such as competitions, competitions, skill competitions, sports such as baseball, etc. Various tests performed for evaluation purposes, such as a recognized game, TOEIC, and college simulation, are examples of games and the like that are the subject of the present invention.

The game presupposed in the present invention can perform various interactive or unidirectional (interactive opposite concepts) or activities on or off-line online or offline with winning or losing, scoring, quantifying or quantifying, ranking, or the like. Say. The game that is the subject of the present invention includes devices that are mainly developed for games such as ordinary non-PC-based or PC-based games (starcraft, fortress, fifa2000, etc.), SONY's Play Station, etc. (including video game devices) Arcade game games (whether these games are online or offline), games played only on-line such as lineage, etc. To be the target.

In the present invention, the configuration is described in the following categories based on whether the game is performed on-line and whether there is a direct opponent in the game.

First is a competitive online game. A competitive online game is a game played on a network (whether or not game software is installed on the user's computer 1-17), and the outcome of the game can be won or lost, or the game's contents A comparison of all or some (e.g., who has conquered more land before the win or loss is decided), quantification (various events that occur in the content of the game, actions of the user (1-17), etc.) games that can be given a concept of quantity) or quantification (for example, by weighting various items owned by the user 1-17 so that they can be compared numerically). . StarCraft frequently appeared as an example of a game in the present specification is a representative example of a competitive online game.

Second is a non-competitive online game. An online game in which the opponent of the game is specified or not directly determined. Even if the opponents of the match are not clearly identified as people during the game, scores are based on objective criteria such as raising the player's level, accumulating points, collecting items, or collecting property, depending on the achievement of the given mission. It refers to things that have the attributes of games, sports, and play that can be quantified and quantified. In the online non-competitive game, a game where the user (1-17) accomplishes a mission according to a predetermined scenario of the program, a cyber space in which a predetermined character, items necessary for the character to survive and be active, and a character exist are provided. Games that allow users (1-17) to foster characters, games that communicate virtually with others, such as communication, exchange, association, competition, etc. in the cyber space, and experience virtual experiences, not humans There are a variety of games, including intelligent programs and games to compete.

The difference between a competitive online game and a non-competitive online game is determined by whether a game is won or lost due to the competition with others. Non-competitive offline games also refer to any offline games that do not focus on competition through competition against opponents.

Representative applications of the ranking concept described by the present invention include various online games such as StarCraft, in which a win or loss is determined by accumulating and accumulating the ranking by connecting a network using a PC or a personal mobile phone as a terminal.

In a competitive online game such as StarCraft, users of the game (1-17) record their victories through multiple matches against an unspecified majority over a period of time, and these records are accumulated and ranked. At this time, generally, only the ranking of the entire league is managed for a certain period of time. If various personal information such as gender, region, occupation, and affiliation is input to the game user (1-17), various users (1-17) are inputted. ) You can manage the detailed ranking of each category. In particular, if the ranking by category can be visualized by the selection of the user 1-17 in a visual medium such as the electronic map 1-4a, it may not reach a certain level in the whole user 1-17. By satisfying the desire of the special users for most users (1-17) who can not, new immersion and motivation for the game is possible.

An example of a process in which a ranking is displayed on the electronic map 1-4a with respect to the destination category 8-2 selected by the user 1-17 may be as follows.

That is, first, the user 1-17 of the game is referred to as a user 1-17 number (hereinafter referred to as a user 1-17 number or ID) in the ranking management system, gender, address, occupation, position, and hobby. Enter necessary information or personal information that can be classified into categories that a user (1-17) can belong to, such as club, religion, school of origin, age, and family, and make it into a DB for each user (1-17). The ranking management center 1-1 manages necessary information or personal information DB. The more detailed and diverse this necessary or personal information is, the more likely it is that multiple rankings will be possible, thus increasing the likelihood of higher rankings.

Secondly, the result of various activities or activities (such as winning or losing) online or offline including a specific game or the like is generated as a result of performing various activities or activities on or offline including a game or the like.

Third, this performance result is automatically transmitted to the management system by the user 1-17 himself or the system of the game content provider.

Fourth, the management system analyzes the transmitted results and stores them in the DB by analyzing and processing data (including statistical processing). At this time, there are many ways to process the data. In the case of a game where the goal is to destroy the opponents, and therefore the meaning of the victory or defeat is clear, it may be ranked simply as a win rate. On the other hand, if there are methods in which the number of items obtained, the level of character level increase, and the difficulty of mission success are scored and calculated to indicate the achievement of the user (1-17) during the win or lose process, These are all linked to win or loss and can be converted into the final score of the ranking according to the formula. In addition, the final score may be added or subtracted according to the number of wins, losses, draws, or disconnections in consideration of the number of wins as well as the win rate, and the score of such a match may be separately managed according to the level of the opponent of the match. . For example, the outcome of a game with Seoul's No. 1 winner and the game with a novice gamer just entering the game can be managed separately by introducing the concept of weight. If it is not a game but a ranking model that integrates and manages the scores of several games, the concept of weight is also introduced according to the difficulty of the game. A game that requires time and effort has a high weight, so a model for managing integrated game rankings is possible.

Fifth, when the user 1-17 selects a specific category on the electronic map 1-4a, this selection is sent to the management system.

Sixth, the management system transmits the data on the DB corresponding to this selected specific category so that it can be displayed (2-9) on the electronic map 1-4a of the user 1-17.

A competitive online game is a one-on-one or a one-to-one game played on a network where scores can be calculated by first achieving a given mission against the opponent of the match or by completing the achievement as a result of the match. Many vs. many competitive online games. StarCraft, which is frequently shown as an example of a game in the present specification, is a representative example of a competitive online game. Therefore, the competitive online game may have the following steps and flows as an example.

An example of the overall flow in which the user 1-17 of the competitive online game selects the object category 8-2 and the ranking thereof is displayed on the electronic map is as follows.

First, personal information input step. The user 1-17 of the game inputs necessary information or personal information. Input of necessary information or personal information is directly input (1-19) to the ranking management center 1-1 or input into the system of the game content provider to the ranking management center 1-1. When the user 1-17 plays a game or the like by logging in or the like, since the personal information previously input and stored may be used, input of additional personal information may be unnecessary.

Second, category processing is based on personal information. Based on the necessary information or personal information, the ranking management center 1-1 generates various detailed categories of the user 1-17 or belongs to the previously generated categories. This process may be omitted in the case of a relational DBMS (1-13).

Third, the game execution stage. The game user 1-17 connects to the game content providing server to play against the other user 1-17 to play the game, and the result (win or lose, score) is generated.

Fourth, the transmission of the ranking basic data (1-2a). The ranking basic data 1-2a formed as a result of the game is transmitted to the ranking management center 1-1.

Fifth, ranking information generation step. The ranking basic data (1-2a) formed as a result of the game is processed to generate a ranking ranking reflecting the category.

Sixth, the game user 1-17 selects the object category 8-2 of interest in a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a. This choice may be given or may be pre-selected.

Seventh, the ranking management center 1-1 displays the ranking information on the selected category on the electronic map.

Eighth, the user 1-17 checks the ranking for each desired category on the electronic map 1-4a.

An example of a hardware configuration for constructing the above invention may be as follows.

The ranking management center (1-1) 16-1 basically comprises a main server 16-2 and a ranking DB server 16-3. The ranking DB (1-11a) server has various category result DBs based on the personal information of each user (1-17), detailed results DB for each category processed in consideration of simple results such as game win or lose, weights, etc. Various databases are stored, and the main server is a server that is a central server that manages users (1-17), game systems, various DB servers, etc., and is in charge of processing various data. Optionally, it includes a homepage or a personal ranking management space (1-5) for each user (1-17), and if you want a complex electronic map, a geographic information DB server 16-7 is implemented separately, 16-7 '). And, each game participant, is to play the game through the game content providing server (16-5), or directly connected to the ranking management center (1-1) to play the game (16-5 '), or provide personalized You can play the game through the virtual space. As such, the game content providing system may be separately provided outside the ranking management center 1-1 or may be embodied inside. The game results shown by the user 1-17 joining the game are displayed on the display on the computer of the user 1-17. Each of these components is connected by a network, and various connection lines of FIG. 16 indicate that these components are connected by a network.

The match matching system may be configured in the online game as shown in FIG. 22 by using the ranking displayed on the electronic map. Arrows shown in FIG. 22 refer to the flow of the great votes.

First, a user (1-17) (22-3) checks the ranking on the electronic map. (22-5-1)

Secondly, if you find the opponent you want to play on the electronic map, it communicates the intention to the matchmaking system. (22-5-2)

Third, the match-up system enters the intention of a match received from the user 1-17 A 22-3 to the user 1-17 B 22-3 '. When user (1-17) A expresses his / her intention, user (1-17) B communicates online in real time if he is online, and if he is offline, e-mail, memo, phone, short message service (SMS), etc. Leave a message asking the intention of the war by means. (22-5-3)

Fourth, when the user 1-17 B confirms the intention to play, the game is played on a content providing system such as a game. (22-5-4)

Fifth, in the content providing system such as a game, the result of the match is transmitted to the DB of the ranking management center 1-1. (22-5-5)

Although the opponents of the game are not clearly identified as people during the game, they can be quantified by objective criteria such as raising the player's level, accumulating points, collecting items, or collecting property, depending on the achievement of the given mission. Games that have the attributes of games, sports, and play that can produce results are played online or offline. In the online non-competitive game, a game where the user (1-17) accomplishes a mission according to a predetermined scenario of the program, a cyber space in which a predetermined character, items necessary for the character to survive and be active, and a character exist are provided. Games that allow users (1-17) to foster characters, games that communicate virtually with others, such as communication, exchange, association, competition, etc. in the cyber space, and experience virtual experiences, not humans There are a variety of games, including intelligent programs and games to compete. The difference between a competitive online game and a non-competitive online game is determined by whether a game is won or lost due to the competition with others. Non-competitive offline games also refer to any offline games that do not focus on competition through competition against opponents.

An example of a basic flow for a non-competitive online game is as follows.

First, the user 1-17 of the game inputs necessary information or personal information. Input of necessary information or personal information is directly input (1-19) to the ranking management center 1-1 or input into the game content providing system is transmitted to the ranking management center 1-1.

Second, based on the necessary information or personal information input, the ranking management center 1-1 generates various detailed categories of the user 1-17 or belongs to the previously generated categories.

Third, the game user 1-17 connects to the game content providing server to play the game and the result is generated. The result of the game is not the outcome of the match, but all the results that can occur in the game, such as mission completion time, hit rate, character level up, the number of items acquired, and the completion of the completed mission.

Fourth, the game result is sent to the ranking management center 1-1.

Fifth, a ranking ranking reflecting a category is generated by processing the transmitted game result. Various game results transmitted in the process are evaluated according to a predetermined weight according to the characteristics of the game and used to produce the final result.

Sixth, the game user 1-17 selects the object category 8-2 of interest in a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a.

Seventh, the ranking DB 1-11a for the selected category is transmitted to be displayed on the electronic map.

Eighth, the user 1-17 checks the ranking for each desired category on the electronic map 1-4a.

The hardware configuration for this is as follows.

One example of the configuration of the ranking management center 1-1 is basically composed of a main server 16-2 and a ranking DB server 16-3. The ranking DB (1-11a) server has various category result DBs based on the personal information of each user (1-17), various game results that may occur, and a detailed ranking DB for each category processed in consideration of weights, etc. Various databases are stored, and the main server is a server that is a central server that manages users (1-17), game systems, various DB servers, etc. and is in charge of processing various data. Optionally includes a homepage or personal ranking management space (1-5) for each user (1-17), and if you want a complex electronic map, the electronic map DB (1-4b) is driven separately, which is external (16). -7 ') Each game participant 16-6, 16-6 'plays a game through the game content providing server 16-5, or directly connects to the ranking management center 1-1 to play a game. Or (16-5 '), the game can be played through a virtual space (16-4) provided personalized. As such, the game content providing system may be separately provided outside the ranking management center 1-1 or may be embodied inside. The game result shown by the user 1-17 participating in the game is displayed on the display on the computer 16-6 of the user 1-17. Each of these components is connected by a network, and various connection lines of FIG. 16 indicate that these components are connected by a network.

An example of the basic flow of a non-competitive offline game is as follows.

First, the user 1-17 of the game inputs information or personal information necessary for the virtual space provided by the ranking management center 1-1 or the system.

Second, based on the necessary information or personal information input, the ranking management center 1-1 generates various detailed categories of the user 1-17 or belongs to the previously generated categories.

Third, the game user 1-17 plays a non-matching offline game and the result is generated.

Fourth, the game user 1-17, the management principal of the ranking management center 1-1 or the organizer of the offline game event inputs the game result into the ranking management center 1-1. For example, the result of the game inputted at this time may be the hit score of an arrow fired at a predetermined distance, the time it takes to complete a predetermined distance, and the number of consecutive kicks without dropping to the ground.

Fifth, a ranking ranking reflecting the belonging category of the user 1-17 and the belonging category of the non-competitive offline game is generated by processing the input game result.

Sixth, the game user 1-17 selects the destination category 8-2 in a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a.

Seventh, the ranking DB 1-11a for the selected category is transmitted to be displayed on the electronic map.

Eighth, the user 1-17 checks the desired ranking for each category on the electronic map 1-4a.

Like the first competitive online game, the game is played offline, which has the property of confrontation, and includes games and games played offline, such as general interpersonal or group sports such as table tennis, swimming, and soccer.

The overall flow in which the user 1-17 of the competitive offline game selects the target category 8-2 and the ranking thereof is displayed on the electronic map is as follows.

First, the user 1-17 of the game inputs information or personal information necessary for the virtual space provided by the ranking management center 1-1 or the system.

Second, based on the necessary information or personal information input, the ranking management center 1-1 generates various detailed categories of the user 1-17 or belongs to the previously generated categories.

Third, the game user 1-17 performs the offline game and the result (win / loss, score) occurs.

Fourth, the game user 1-17, the management principal of the ranking management center 1-1 or the organizer of the offline game event inputs the game result into the ranking management center 1-1.

Fifth, a ranking ranking reflecting a category is generated by processing the input game result.

Sixth, the game user 1-17 selects the destination category 8-2 in a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a.

Seventh, the ranking DB 1-11a for the selected category is transmitted to be displayed on the electronic map.

Eighth, the user 1-17 checks the desired ranking for each category on the electronic map 1-4a.

The hardware configuration for constituting the entire flow is as follows.

As shown in Figure 5, the competitive offline ranking management center (1-1) is basically composed of a main server and a ranking DB server, and the outline is similar, but there is no server providing game contents.

The match matching system for the offline game may be configured using the ranking displayed on the electronic map.

First, a user 1-17 of the offline game checks the ranking on the electronic map.

Secondly, if you find the opponent you want to play on the electronic map, it communicates the intention to the matchmaking system.

Third, the competitive game system transmits the intention of the game from the user 1-17 A to the user 1-17 B, and discloses a method of contacting the user 1-17 A.

Fourth, when the user 1-17B confirms the intention to play, the game is made in contact with the user 1-17A. The manager of the Great War Final System plays the role of, or delegates to the agent, the placement of the competition, the setting of the rules of the competition, and the referee for the fair competition.

Fifth, the result of the match is transmitted to the DB of the ranking management center 1-1.

Although the object of the user's (1-17) behavior is beyond the scope of the game in social ideology, the outcome of the behavior can be measured and evaluated, objectively quantified, assigned a number, The direct comparison of: 1 or group or group to group is within the scope of the broad test concept in the present invention. There are examples of consultations, such as tests, quizzes, common sense, and competitions, which can be run online or offline.

First, it is commonly called a test (test, test, hereinafter called 'test'). It is a general test of achievement test such as TOEIC and TOEFL and various certification related tests (computer literacy certificate, MCPs, OCPs), and tests that closely correlate with general education systems or institutional admissions (high-level mock tests, college entrance exams, SAT, Seoul National University essay tests, etc.), which can be performed online or offline.

Secondly, quizzes, which can be said to be relatively simpler than exams, can be divided into examination exams (attorney's first exam quiz), educational use, and entertainment games (quiz academy, etc.). Classification by grade is possible and can also be done online and offline. What quizzes are offered by online quiz content providers such as riddles, crosswords, puzzles, ad quizzes, IQ test quizzes, and typically www.quizquiz.com fall into the category of quizzes. The criteria for distinguishing exams from quizzes can be considered various criteria such as compulsoryness, accreditation, certification or certification.

Third, strong competition / contests include curriculum related to curriculum set by the Ministry of Education in charge of national education, mathematics, science and physics such as early childhood, kindergarten, elementary, secondary, high school or above. Common sense (quiz academy), physical ability (arm wrestling, mountain climbing), entertainment (eloquence contest, singing pride, rebirth, dance contest), function (sports, humor contest, battering, good character making), computer related The awards come with a competition against multiples, both online and offline, in areas such as programming, hacking, searching and surfing.

General matters regarding the method of collecting the ranking basic data 1-2 are as described above, and hereinafter, the description will be mainly focused on the test.

First, in the form of the most common test at present, the test occurs offline and the subject of the test exists offline. In this case, the results of the test actions of each user 1-17 (which may be referred to as the examinee in relation to the test) may be computerized and transmitted to the ranking management center 2-4. In the simplest case, the test results of students who have taken A's high school mock test in paper state and paper answer sheet state are scored by company A (such as OMR scoring). The results of the grading are computerized and stored in a database, and the data are either as-is or after a constant analysis, and then to the Ranking Management Center (1-1) (including, of course, personal information for each examinee) of the ranking basic data (1- And 2a).

Second, there is no need to computerize the results of the test behavior because the entire process of the test occurs online. In this case, the results of the test of each user 1-17 and the like are immediately DBized, and may be ranking basic data 1-2a for the present invention.

Third, certain tests can be taken at the same time, on-line and off-line, or with equal status. TOEFL, for example, may be conducted online in the form of CBT, but may also be taken off-line (paper test questionnaire). In this case, the test method or the method of scoring is different, and the time taken for the formation of the ranking basic data (2-5) is absolutely different. Therefore, it is important to decide where to determine the time criteria of the ranking basic data 1-2-2 for determining the ranking (i.e., how long to rank based on the data). Although the decision maker may be the subject of the test (if the test organizer decides when to send the data), the Ranking Management Center (1-1) (determines when to rank based on the data sent by the test organizer). May be used).

If the content of the test is content or can be contented, the concept of test content can be established. For example, the content of a test paper, a quiz program, and the like, whether online or offline, may be referred to as content, and thus, a test organizer or a quiz program provider may be referred to as a test content provider. Most people who provide test content online have a test content providing server. (Of course, each peer can provide test content without the concept of a server such as P2P. In the present invention, for easy processing of terms, Regardless of the peer-to-peer method, the computer managed by the test content provider is referred to as a 'test content provision server.' The computer may be referred to as a test content providing server.

As described above, identification of the user 1-17 on-line can be identified through registration of the user 1-17, login, IP address analysis, and the like. 17) Identify the identity process.

First, the identity of the user 1-17 can be identified during the registration process. In the case of on-line registration for an exam on-line, an identity entry process can be applied during the registration process. In the case of off-line registration, the minimum information of the user 1-17 may be input during the computer processing of the registration application or the computer processing such as an OMR card. Re-registrants in the case of repeatable tests may re-use the user (1-17) identity information stored as a result of initial or prior registration. In this case, when the user 1-17 enters a unique number, or enters a user 1-17 number / password, or the likeness of the user 1-17 is grasped, the previously stored information has been stored. User 1-17 identity information can be used again. In addition, when the testing organization is connected to a network that stores the identification information of the user (1-17), the testing organization uses the minimum information from the user (1-17) as a key. Identification information of (1-17) can be inquired, and this data can be used by test administration.

At this time, what is problematic in relation to the spirit of the present invention is grasping the location information of the user 1-17. An example of an OMR card used in the college practice test / toeic test will be described. The OMR card has at least one identity verification device, such as social security number, name, student number or student number. Detailed information about the identity may be recorded in other documents, such as applications other than OMR cards, and these data are entered electronically. In this case, the information from the two places may be combined through the identification device. Identifyed identity information and outcome information such as tests can be managed together.

Second, a problem arises in determining geographic location. If there is address information of the user 1-17, there is no problem. Otherwise, a minimum or constant administrative area including a place for taking a test or the like may be used as the default geographical location of the user 1-17.

Third, the on-line or off-line address of the user 1-17 may be the destination of a result of a test or the like. Typically this address is required during registration, such as during a test.

The problem of testing is divided into two types.

The first is the type with or without attribute information for each problem. Since there is no attribution information, only the level of scoring, including whether the answer is correct or incorrect, can be known. Therefore, the results of the test appear only at the total score level, and the information that the total score level has is no more detailed than the attribute information for that particular test itself. Therefore, the ranking basic data 1-2 is only the attribute and the total score level of the test itself.

The second is the type of attribute information combined with each problem. Since the attribute information can be analyzed differently for each problem, various indexes suitable for the analysis can be combined. This will be described later.

The problem has the properties of the test itself to which the problem belongs, the objective and / or subjective properties of the problem itself, or the event properties of the problem.

The nature of a test itself is defined within the scope of the above tests and within the limits of specifying that test within the scope of the test. For example, in the final exam, the exam itself may be combined with attribute information that specifies the exam, such as 1) high school, 2) third year, 3) final exam, and 4) the extent of the test taker. have.

When there is a particular problem, there are objective properties that can be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the problem or test belongs. For example, in case of a problem in the part 4 area of the TOEIC test, the following properties exist. Objectives that can be objectively recognized can be assigned to the issues such as 1) English, 2) TOEIC, 3) part 4 problems, and 4) listening problems. In the case of a fraction problem associated with a figure of mathematics, 1) mathematics, 2) a figure problem, and 3) a fraction problem may be combined as attribute information.

The information entered by the question's creator or other interested parties or assessing a particular problem becomes the subjective nature of the problem. For example: 1) Difficulty 2) Types and weights of capabilities needed to solve the problem (e.g. in fractional problems associated with shapes, the formula's ability to formulate (weight 0.8), the computational power of equations (weight 0.9), spatial perception Ability (weight 0.2), etc.), 3) related problems (for example, in the case of the CBT TOEFL, each problem is related to a different problem, depending on whether or not you solve the original problem), and 4) The area to which it belongs and its weight (for example, in the case of applying a matrix first-order transformation and trigonometric addition formula, the matrix 0.4, trigonometric 0.5, first-order transformation 0.1, etc. Etc.) In specifying the area, the educational objectives of the curriculum proposed by public institutions such as the Ministry of Education may be taken into account.

Double points, tailored to a specific problem or set of problems (e.g., specific sequential problems, odd-number problems, problems in specific areas, problems of specific difficulty, problems requiring specific abilities, or complexity problems) In this case, special event characteristics such as bonus scores, special gifts, and the application of the lottery concept may be given.

Tests and the like may be performed online or offline. In the case of online, the registration process of the user 1-17 may be required, and the relationship between the test result and the user 1-17 is established on the DB. In the case of off-line, information of the user (1-17) is normally recorded on a medium (an answer sheet, other recording medium, etc.) that records performance results of an OMR card or other test, and the evaluation process such as scoring is completed. After that, the result and the relationship between the users 1-17 are stored together on the DB.

If the test is performed and the result is separated from the test in a timely or spatial manner, a process of receiving the test or the like is necessary. The receiving process is online, and the management space, such as the user's 1-17's e-mail address, the user's 1-17's ranking, or a virtual space on the network that has access rights to other users 1-17, is the receiving space of the result. This can be Detailed analysis data and ranking related data about the results of the test, etc., may be transmitted to the result receiving space together from the ranking management center (1-1), and if these data are interacted with the hyperlinks in the result receiving space. It may be directly accessible. If configured in a P2P format, these data can be brought to the resulting recipient space or access point on the network of users 1-17 without movement.

Until now, the results of the conventional test and the like have been, firstly, the total score and the score for each part, or the score for each area remained. For example, if the calculus problem is wrong in mathematics and the like, it is weak to calculus.

Introducing the subjective nature of the problem in the present invention, when applied to online or offline tests and the like has the following effects. First, it can analyze the subjective attributes can be analyzed, the analysis results of the segmented user (1-17) can be derived, the advantages and disadvantages of the user (1-17), weak and strong parts can be analyzed The analysis result may be provided to the user 1-17 in the form of a report for each user 1-17. In this case, the related information (academic guidance, analysis of the results of the test of the other user 1-17, etc., comparison, comparison of the results of the previous test, etc.) may be combined and provided to the users 1-17. . Second, the user 1-17 can provide optimized content. For example, if the user 1-17 falls short of the formulated expression ability of the figure (one of the indexes of the subjective attributes), the content provided to the user 1-17 afterwards can be cultivated intensively. It can provide problem sets that strongly correlate with capacity building.

The process of providing an optimal content is performed in the following order. In essence, the process of collecting the ranking basic data 1-2 may be generated separately from the process of providing the optimized contents. That is, when a test or the like is conducted in an offline manner, the ranking basic data 1-2 may be input by a person or an OMR system, and optimized for the users 1-17 online based on the input data. Digital content can be provided. The provision of this content may be applied to any digital content providing method such as e-mail, user 1-17 accessing and receiving or downloading.

First, the result analysis process. The results of the test of the user 1-17 are analyzed in consideration of the objective properties as well as the subjective properties. The result of the test of the user 1-17 (e.g., correct answer or wrong answer) is stored in the DB in which the attributes, the objective attributes and / or the subjective attributes of each question itself are related in the form of an index or a key. At this time, the analysis engine of the ranking management center 1-1 may perform analysis by various criteria (standards already input or special criteria designated by the user 1-17), and output values to be calculated for each criterion. Can be output in various ways provided by the DBMS 1-1, and it can be stored in a temporary storage location or a permanent storage location. The analysis engine is any software that extracts meaningful analysis values, relevance, or correlations from the results of tests such as statistics and other data analysis tools, CRM tools, query methods, and SQL. At this time, the weak and strong places of the user (1-17) are classified into subjective attributes (for example, the application of the derivative is weak, the type with the combination of the derivative and the figure is weak, and the weakness of the blank-type English reading problem). , The lack of vocabulary, etc.) and the corresponding indexes are stored along with numerical information about strengths and weaknesses.

Second, the user (1-17) optimized content extraction process. In the first process, based on any analysis information about the index and the strength and weakness, the analyzed result can be contented in the form of a chart, graph, text, or a combination thereof. And based on any analysis information, access to a content set such as learning or other ranking management center (1-1) or an external content DB, and then the specific content or content set satisfying the internal setting criteria (these internal settings Extracts from the learning content set or DB.

The extracted ones can extract the weak points of the user 1-17 or the content (intensive parts of weak parts, high weights in the same index, etc.) that can concentrate on specific skills. For example, a user who is wrong with a blank reading problem (1-17) may have a strong blanking problem, or a person who is not able to solve a problem with a combination of derivatives and shapes may have a problem with this type or with this property. An example is extracting a problem with a high weight on the database.

You can store it in a temporary or permanent storage location. The extracted user 1-17 may be provided to the user 1-17 alone or in combination with other content.

Third is the transmission process. The method of transmission may be any of the following. 1) The first and second processes described above may be provided to the user 1-17 in response to a request of the user 1-17. 2) The user 1-17 may prepare the optimized content and provide the user 1-17 in response to the request of the user 1-17. 3) Even if there is no direct request of the user 1-17 by a prior request or a contract of the user 1-17, it may be provided to the user 1-17.

The concept of CRM customer relation management and common techniques in the art may be applied to the spirit of the present invention. That is, the ranking management center 1-1 with the customer relationship management tool analyzes the performance result 2-2 of the game of the users 1-17 and the like, and based on the analyzed result, normal customer relationship management Various management techniques provided by the system can be applied. Extracting and providing user-optimized content is only one example.

Analysis data of the performance of games, etc. can be a subject of commerce with those who need it. The configuration for this is as follows.

First, performance data such as game of user 1-17 is classified by each category or other necessary indexes.

Second, the information of the user (1-17) (the process of obtaining the user's prior consent for this information can be combined) to the person who needs the result analysis data and the performance result of the game ( Information about 2-2) and analysis information thereof are transmitted. At this time, the pre-contract, real-time e-commerce process may be combined before or at the same time.

It demonstrates centering on FIG.

The configuration of the franchise centering on the ranking management center 1-1 will be described. Online or offline companies (hereinafter referred to as 'merchants' in connection with franchisees) related to games such as game rooms, game rooms, schools (including virtual space franchises (15-3b)), etc. It may have a virtual space (referred to as 'merchant corresponding virtual space 15-3a'). For example, an online space operated, managed, or interacted with an academy on an offline school may be a merchant corresponding virtual space when the academy is a merchant defined by the present invention.

The ranking management center 1-1 may allocate a predetermined region to each affiliated store, and location information of each user 1-17 may be collected as described above.

Each merchant may register 15-6 with the ranking management center 1-1 together with related information such as the goods or services themselves or the characteristics of each goods or services they want to supply. This registration may be associated with a process of inputting and storing information based on various indexes, and the result is stored in the affiliated store (supplier) information DB 15-2.

The ranking management center 1-1 analyzes the performance result 2-2 of the game or the like based on each user 1-17 or each category or index, a specific group criterion or an arbitrary plural group criterion, and the analysis result. Save (15-7)

Based on the supplier information DB for each affiliate and the policy of the ranking management center (1-1) or the contract between the ranking management center (1-1) and each affiliate, the ranking management center (1-1) specifies the supplier. (15-8), it transmits the performance result (2-2) and analysis data of the game of the user (1-17) to each provider to the merchant corresponding virtual space. (15-4) (15-9)

For example, as follows. When there is a school named A (located in Masan City, Gyeongnam) and a school named B (located in Sillim-dong, Gwanak-gu, Seoul), the Ranking Management Center (1-1) is a user (1-17) located in Masan or Masan City. 1-17) Merchants send information about themselves, performances of games (2-2), analysis data, and other CRM data to the merchant's corresponding virtual space of A school. For user b living in Gwanak-gu or Sillim-dong, Gwanak-gu, part or all of the relevant information may be transmitted to the affiliate store corresponding virtual space of Merchant B.

The ranking management center 1-1 may assign a unique number to each affiliate store or affiliated virtual space, and each affiliate store or merchant associated virtual space may be assigned to the ranking management center 1-1 by inputting a unique number or other identifier. Can be accessed. The ranking management center 1-1 assigns a certain region based on the physical location of each affiliate store, and relates to the performance result 2-2 of the game of the user 1-17 around the assigned region. The right to access, download, copy, view, or otherwise access any or all of the Materials may be sold by contract or real-time electronic commerce.

On-line testing may include the following:

First, a user 1-17 who accesses the online event space 1-15 that provides a specific content of a test inputs necessary information or personal information. Input of necessary information or personal information is input directly to the ranking management center (1-1) or input into the test online event space (1-15) to the ranking management center (1-1). It may be. If the user 1-17 is authenticated, the existing input information related to the user 1-17 may be automatically linked with the action of the user 1-17 and the result of the action.

Secondly, the user 1-17 takes a test and results such as a test are generated, which may be the ranking basic data 1-2-2a. In the case of multiple choice or simple answer, the score is automatically calculated by the program. In the case of complex narrative answer, a person evaluates the score and inputs the score.

Third, the ranking basic data 1-2 is transferred to the ranking management center 1-1. This transfer occurs even in the special case where the ranking management center 1-1 is the online event space 1-15.

An indication of the ranking and access to that information may be as follows.

First, the user 1-17 connects to the ranking management center 1-1, and a specific category is selected.

Second, the ranking management center 1-1 receives the generated ranking information or the input of category specification (2-7) of the user 1-17, calculates the ranking, and uses the electronic map 1-4a in a designated manner. Display on the screen.

In the above process, any one of the processing for the ranking basic data 1-2a, the display of the ranking, and the like may be selectively or entirely applied.

An example of the configuration of a system for the practice of the invention for testing is as follows. The test ranking management center (1-1) for the test is basically composed of a main server and a ranking DB server. The ranking DB (1-11a) server stores various databases such as various category result DB and test score DB based on the personal information of each user (1-17), and the main server is user (1-17) and test. It is a central server that manages system, various DB servers, etc. and handles various data. Optionally, it includes a homepage or a personal ranking management space (1-5) for each user (1-17), and if you want a complicated electronic map, a geo-information DB server is implemented separately, which may be imported from outside. Each game participant may take a test through a test content providing server, directly access the ranking management center 1-1, or take a test through a virtual space provided by personalization. As such, the test content providing system may be separately provided outside the ranking management center 1-1 or may be embodied inside. The test scores that result from the user 1-17 participating in the test and the resulting test results are displayed on the display on the computer of the user 1-17. Each of these components is networked.

Various connections indicate that these components are connected by a network.

As one embodiment of the present invention, a configuration of a competition system on a network can be considered. By individual user (1-17), a small or large group, or a representative of a number of persons, may participate in the competition on behalf of the group.

For example, if an elementary school cyber mathematics competition is held in units of each grade at each school, all members of each school may participate, or representatives of a number of representatives representing each grade at each school may be simultaneously or sequentially selected. In order to participate in the competition, ranking basic data 1-2 may be generated. In other words, the ranking and the like can be generated by analyzing the result of winning and losing or ranking. And the result can be displayed on the electronic map 1-4a.

The display can be displayed (2-9) on the electronic map 1-4a using the group as a unit of the user 1-17 when the group has a unit (for example, a school unit). When the group is a user 1-17, various rights and contents of the invention for the user 1-17 in the present invention apply to the users 1-17 of the group unit. In addition, according to the policy of the ranking management center 1-1, the lower part (for each grade or class) or individual user (1-17) that the group's achievement or ranking basic data 1-2-2 constitutes the group. It may be reflected in the ranking basic data (1-2a) of), or may act adversely.

In this case, the competition may be performed by specifying a region, and in the case of the competition, the competition will be a regional unit, and the ranking display will be displayed with the region as an upper limit.

For example, for the category of elementary school sixth grade mathematics, Samsung elementary school in Sinrim 9-dong in Gwanak-gu may be the first ranking. Sixth graders in elementary schools in Gwanak-gu may challenge this first place, and if the ranking changes for the results of the competition, then sixth graders in Samsung Elementary School will no longer be the first in Gwanak-gu and will have a lower ranking. In other words, a specific area called Gwanak-gu on the electronic map (1-4a) is under the control of another newly ranked first grade elementary school.

In this group unit competition, the competition may be performed at the same time, but the competition may be performed in a sequential or random order to determine the competition and win or lose. At this time, the ranking due to the winning and losing of the group unit is processed in real time according to the results of the competition of individual members of each group that has been conducted so far, and displayed as the ranking of the group as a whole.

Online or offline quizzes, quizzes available on the Internet, such as www.quizquiz.com , quiz content on TV or radio stations, quiz content from offline media such as newspapers or magazines, and personal handheld devices (such as mobile phones). Includes what is recognized as a quiz in the recognition system of ordinary people given in question form for the purpose of competing or evaluating knowledge or wit such as quiz. In terms of how quizzes are provided and operated, the concept of 'quiz event' is introduced, and the concept of online / offline event space (1-16) and online / offline event provider used in the above definition of terms. Use

The specific structure of the quiz is configured by replacing the quiz content instead of game content, test content, and contest task content in a game, test or competition.

When a normal quiz performed the best of the quiz requirements, such as the highest score and the best correct answer, the structure was highly rewarded. The reason police officers are present when selecting winners in lotteries, contests and prize quizzes is to ensure fairness. Insiders (such as giveaways, quiz event providers, who issuing or operating lotteries, who are conducting competitions, etc.) and general quiz participants have problems with uneven distribution of information, so insiders need to be excluded.

In the present invention, to achieve the object of insider exclusion, the concept of proximity quiz and the following configuration and processor for realizing this.

Proximity quiz means to include all or part of the following attributes.

First, completeness exclusion. Self-proximity quiz closest to a certain percentage (for example, 75%), not to the closest to 100% (for example, 100 points). It's a way to be a winner. For example, if 100 questions are asked about the contents of a movie, those who are involved in the production of the movie are likely to be close to 100%. This in turn lowers the participation of the general user (1-17), leading to the decline of the quiz event for the purpose of promoting the movie. In addition, if a problem that can be corrected by anyone or other top percentage holders is not better rewarded, users 1-17 will not attempt to build more than a certain level of knowledge about the subject of such a movie. Therefore, a compensation scheme that differentiates the top percentage holders as non-100% may require the user 1-17 to deliberately accumulate knowledge of goods or services.

Second is backwardness. If the answer is correct in a problem, it is a quiz that includes a quiz problem that is given a characteristic of being scored or disadvantaged. This may be particularly useful for finding insiders when quiz questions and the like are difficult. If 75% is the winner, insiders who can achieve 100% can adjust their percentage to 75% by adjusting the right and wrong.

Third is secrecy. Proximity targets (the number '75% 'in the above example) may exist, but are not open to the public, or during a quiz, or during a quiz, or after the quiz is completed, such as a draw by the user (1-17). Participants in the quiz event, such as determining the object of proximity, having an external third party decide, or changing it in progress, theoretically do not know the object of proximity throughout the course of the quiz event.

When prizes are of considerable value, a large number of users (1-17) can be attracted to quiz events, which often serve the purpose of promoting, advertising or promoting a product or service. There is a trend. Therefore, if insiders are excluded on-line and accidental attributes are added, it will attract more users 1-17 to achieve a certain purpose, such as promotion in relation to the prizes. The more information a user (1-17) has about a particular product or service, the more likely the purchaseability of that product or service is statistically (the correlation between advertising, promotional volume and purchase) or economically. (It's hard to imagine buying something without any information.) It's a boost, which promotes commerce.

First, Proximity quiz content provision step. The quiz event provider displays the quiz content created by the quiz content creator in the online quiz event space. At this time, a quiz policy to which at least one of the three attributes of the proximity quiz is applied is disclosed together.

Secondly, the user 1-17 participates in a quiz event. User (1-17) The authenticated user (1-17) can access the quiz event provider's virtual space or download the quiz contents to the quiz linked program existing in his computer and participate in the quiz in real time or non-real time. Can be. One user 1-17 may be allowed to participate or enter a plurality of quiz events by a plurality of user 1-17 numbers or recognition numbers. In this case, the plurality of identification numbers corresponding to the respective user 1-17 numbers or the same user 1-17 numbers may be separately managed to generate the ranking basic data 1-2a.

Third, the ranking basic data 1-2a generated as a result of participation in the quiz event of the user 1-17 is transmitted (2-4) to the ranking management center.

Fourth, the process after the ranking management center 1-1 receives the ranking basic data 1-2-2 is the same as the normal ranking basic data 1-2 processing described above.

However, if the winner of the quiz is not determined immediately in real time and is determined after a certain period of time, the following process is performed. 1) According to the quiz policy, ranking information according to the ranking basic data 1-2a up to that time is displayed on the electronic map 1-4a up to that time. Or 2) ranking information is displayed (2-9) on the electronic map 1-4a only after the entry period ends.

Quiz policy or quiz content may include the following features.

First, the content of the quiz may be about the content derived after the use or utilization of the product or service. For example, in the case of a quiz about a movie, the contents of the movie that can be solved by the person who watched the movie are examples.

Second, the contents of the quiz may be based on the existence of text or image information in a virtual space (eg, a movie promotion website, etc.) containing specific contents of a product or service. In this case, the provider of the product or service (for example, the company itself) may be the content of the quiz content.

In this case, when the reward for the quiz is large, the effect of inducing the users 1-17 to the purchase of the product or the use of the service may occur. It can also bring about an increase in network traffic to the virtual space for the goods or services or their suppliers. This can not only increase the effect of advertising or promotion, but also promote the effect of commerce.

During the provision of the online quiz event, an e-commerce routine for a product or service that is the subject of the quiz may be inserted. For example, during the quiz about a particular movie or record, a movie purchase or purchase of a paid or free record may be added. This may contribute more effectively to e-commerce, especially when the quiz content is based on key scenes such as movies or interesting articles, or when the quiz is composed of multimedia content about the object of commerce such as music samples.

The basic premise for e-commerce (including e-commerce for actual transactions, such as reservations, or all stages of transactional activities, etc., hereinafter referred to as 'e-commerce for goods,' etc.) for goods that are subject to commerce is as follows. same. Those who provide e-commerce are referred to as 'e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b'.

The specific ranking management center 1-1 that provides electronic commerce related services includes an electronic commerce processing routine 1-7. There are two main ways to connect to this ranking management center 1-1.

Direct connection is a case where the user 1-17 directly connects to the ranking management center 1-1. That is, the case where there is a direct movement of the user 1-17 to the ranking management center 1-1. In general web technologies, a separate window is opened to access a website of the ranking management center 1-1. That is, the user 1-17 enters the ranking management center 1-1 and processes subsequent processes.

The indirect connection is a form in which the user 1-17 requests information from the ranking management center 1-1 without moving from the original virtual space. This is particularly the case when the portal provides ranking related information in connection with an external ranking management center 1-1 or in a virtual space for a user 1-17 such as a P2P method or a homepage of the ranking management center 1. -1) It can be applied well when there is a program or agent that provides ranking information in association with. The user 1-17 exists in a specific virtual space such as a portal and requests ranking information, and a linked program or the like in the portal transmits the intention of the user 1-17 to the ranking management center 1-1, The ranking management center 1-1 may process, extract and transmit the ranking related information according to the intention, and the portal may display the information to the user 1-17.

Since the ranking is given to the users 1-17 in games and the like, the specification or authentication of the users 1-17 is important, but the specific specification of the goods and the like becomes important in the products and the like. In other words, a product or the like becomes a target of ranking instead of the user 1-17.

The concepts of goods and the like as defined in the present invention include goods or services (whether paid or free, including digital content), natural or artificial facilities, people (corporate or non-corporate divisions, foundations, associations and other organizations). Or a person's actions, the results of those actions, or the total number of actions accumulated over time.

Embodiments of electronic commerce for goods and the like naturally assume that third-party input of evaluation information for goods and the like (2-3) and subsequent processes is followed. Therefore, in the model for commerce, the above-described information is naturally premised even if the above description is not repeated in the configuration.

In e-commerce through the ranking management center 1-1, the intention process of the user 1-17 and the display of the ranking and related information are naturally premised, and optionally, the identity and authentication process of the user 1-17 is optional. (In the case of direct connection, the ranking management center 1-1 is performed. In the case of indirect connection, the virtual space in which the current user 1-17 is located or the ranking management center 1-1 may be restarted.) This is a premise.

Third-party evaluation data on this product, etc. can be the basic data for determining the ranking.

First, if evaluation information about a third party's product or the like is displayed and the users 1-17 become accessible to this information, ranking information on the product or the like is displayed by the user 1-17's e-commerce or other behavior, recognition, It plays an important role in judgment. In other words, if Donghee spot is 2-1 on the electronic map (1-4a) among the Chinese restaurants in Gwanak-gu, the users (1-17) provide the electronic map (1-4a) ranking service. If the State attempts to order Chinese food online by accessing the Ranking Management Center (1-1) or a virtual space linked thereto, the ranking information may be determined by the provider of the product or service that is Chinese food for the user (1-17). Can be important reference information. This is called informationality of ranking.

Second, in order to ensure fairness for the ranking, the position object 10-1 and the digital object digitally stored or present on the electronic map 1-4a indicating the above-mentioned moving spots. Ranking basis data 2-10a corresponding to the target) or the ranking indication may be linked. That is, all or a part of various evaluation information distributed in time and space of a third party may be processed according to the input of the user 1-17 or in a predetermined manner and provided to the users 1-17. This information may be provided to the user 1-17 when acting in a manner promised with the ranking management center 1-1 on the location object 10-1 or the digital object.

Therefore, the embodiment of the product or the like is essentially based on the input of the third party's evaluation information (2-3) and the subsequent processing therefor. This is taken as described above in detail.

Hereinafter, each type of electronic commerce will be described in detail.

Surfing on the electronic map 1-4a means that the user 1-17 moves around on the electronic map 1-4a while looking around here and there on the electronic map 1-4a. On the electronic map 1-4a, only a boundary distinction may exist, but in reality, a physical entity corresponding to a physical location on the map (for example, specific coordinates (specific coordinates may correspond to all locations on the earth)) may be specified. There may be a building, a supplier of a particular product or service, and information about them may be displayed (2-9) on an electronic map 1-4a. And a signage attached to the building for advertisement or other purposes, etc. In the present invention, the signage on the building does not necessarily need to be a signage for a company that actually exists at the actual location.) Content in the form of text, images, sounds, or a combination thereof (hereinafter referred to as 'physical entity display content') may be displayed in whole or in part on the electronic map 1-4a. For example, buildings, restaurants, coffee shops, florists, etc., visually grasped as a person walks down the street, may be displayed 2-9 on the electronic map 1-4a in the form of content.

The physical entity display content corresponds to one content object on the electronic map 1-4a, and this object can be specified. Therefore, there may be information related to the object (for example, address, telephone number, business name, type of goods to be supplied, and any other information), and the ranking management center 1-1 may determine that the object Ranking information about a particular product in a category can be associated and extracted. The process for this is as follows.

First, a process of storing a physical entity as a DB and inputting information on a provider 13-4 such as a building or a product. In this case, the already established GIS information may be used.

Second, a process of matching a physical entity and a supplier 13-4 such as a product of the present invention. This is especially important when information on physical entities is obtained from the outside such as GIS. When the matching process is completed, the information about the physical entity is linked with the supplier 13-4 such as a product.

Third, a ranking under a specific category for the supplier 13-4 such as a product is extracted.

If there is a supplier 13-4 such as various goods in one building, the physical entity display content for the supplier 13-4 such as goods displayed according to the category or intention selected by the user 1-17 is different. You lose. For example, a large building may have a restaurant, a flower shop, a dentist, etc. If the user (1-17) enters a category or intention related to food, the physical entity display content for that building is centered on the restaurant. Or reconstructed. Of course, if there is a default value and there is no specific input or selection of the user 1-17, the restaurant may be displayed first.

Of course, the specific physical entity and the content displaying the physical entity have a 1: 1 correspondence through the above-described interworking process, and the ranking under this specific category has a 1: 1 correspondence again. That is, the ranking can be matched under a category specific to the physical entity and the content representing the physical entity. In addition, some or all of the display methods described in the display portion of the ranking of the present invention with respect to the corresponding ranking may be applied.

When the user 1-17 inputs a specific category or intention, a map in which the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1, which displays a product corresponding to the physical entity display content or the like, is combined in response thereto. Will appear. Users 1-17 can grasp the ranking information while surfing on this. When a click or the like acts on the physical entity display content, all or a part of the configuration that occurs when the user interacts with the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 for displaying a product or the like in the present invention may occur. . That is, e-commerce or reservation is possible.

The user 1-17 may input a specific search word (for example, 'limited food restaurant'), and the search engine may display a search result (limited food store A, limited food store B, etc.). When there are results of the search, if they have rankings and other related information about them in the DB of the ranking management center 1-1, they can be displayed together in the search results.

The basic configuration is as follows.

First, if there is an input of a search word, the search is performed. The DB of the Ranking Management Center (1-1) is searched for the result data of the search performed to check whether there is a match. In the case of a search from an external search engine or an external search site, they may request a ranking management center 1- 1 to query for the results of the search, and the ranking management center 1-1 may search its internal DB. Inquire to see if there is a match.

Second is the display of ranking information. As the display method of ranking information, any display method proposed in the present invention can be mobilized.

Third, if a digital content 13-2 or a ranking display content 13-1 displaying a product or the like coupled thereto is acted on by clicking, etc., 1) it is directed to the electronic map 1-4a, or 2) E-commerce can be performed.

The ranking management center 1-1 may play a role in the e-commerce process. The detailed configuration is as follows. The user 1-17 acts on the digital display for specifying / designating / displaying the ranking display content 13-1 in which the virtual space of the person who provides the electronic commerce provider is hyperlinked or a product related to the ranking display. The electronic commerce is started by connecting to the virtual spaces of the providers 13-3a and 13-3b. Individual e-commerce models are described in detail below.

First, the configuration is a case where the electronic commerce occurs in the electronic commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b outside the ranking management center 1-1.

First, when the user 1-17 interacts with the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods or the like, the user 1-17 is moved to the hyperlinked electronic commerce site. At this time, the information about this movement is stored in a log file, and the data is collected in real time or at a fixed time or in a unit of quantity. It is sent to commerce providers 13-3a, 13-3b or other related parties. At this time, when the user 1-17 has logged in (identification process of the user 1-17) at the site of the ranking management center 1-1, the information is also transmitted to them. This is particularly useful for the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b, and when they accumulate in time and space, they become useful as the basis for customer related marketing (CRM).

Second, when the user 1-17 purchases a product or a service and completes a payment process, commerce occurs. At this time, when commerce occurs, information related to commerce, such as the object of commerce, the price of commerce, and the commerce time, is stored. A ranking management center (1-1), a supplier (13-4) such as a product, or a producer or distributor of a product or service, which collects this information in real time or at a fixed time or in a total unit to take over the user (1-17). For example, it may be transmitted to the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b or other related parties.

Although it has been moved to the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b through the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods or the like, commerce occurs for the goods or services. This is a handling issue for the case. Even when commerce does not occur at all, or when a commerce occurs for a product or service that is not directly related to the digital content 13-2 or the ranking displayed content 13-1 indicating a particular product or the like, Ranking management center (1-1), supplier of goods, etc., which collects constant or promised information on the increase in traffic in real time or in a certain time or amount unit to take over users 1-17. ), Producers, distributors, e-commerce providers (13-3a, 13-3b) or other related parties.

Third, the problem of compensation for the ranking management center 1-1 and the users 1-17. The ranking management center 1-1 may give a certain reward according to the contracted condition of the supplier 13-4, such as a product, or the electronic commerce site. Even if there is no contract with the supplier 13-4 such as a product, the electronic commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b may receive a certain reward for the occurrence of commerce or an increase in traffic. According to a contract, a certain compensation can be given to the ranking management center 1-1.

Rewards can be mediated in relation to users 1-17. If the user 1-17 is from a certain ranking management center 1-1, additional discounts or other economically valuable rewards can be provided.

The following is a description of the case in which there are no goods or services in the external electronic commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b. This is a case where a product or a service related to the digital content 13-2 displaying the product or the like or the ranking display content 13-1 does not exist in its website. At this time, the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b search for other external e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b to display digital goods 13-2 or ranking display content (such as goods). 13-1) may find and present the product or service to the user 1-17. At this time, when a transaction occurs with the user 1-17, the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b process as follows. First, when a user 1-17 makes a purchase from external e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b, he / she may make a conditional purchase that he or she makes a purchase. The second establishes a commerce between the user 1-17 and the e-commerce provider 13-3a, 13-3b first, and the e-commerce provider 13-3a, 13-3b simultaneously or later with other external electronics. A method of establishing a commerce with the commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b may be taken. This has confirmed that the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b have confirmed the existence of goods or services related to the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods and the like on other e-commerce sites. This may be possible. The delivery of goods or the use of the service may be made by the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b by transferring them from the external e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b to the users 1-17. Or from the external electronic commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b to be delivered or used directly to the user 1-17.

In addition, even if a product or service related to the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying a product or the like exists in its website, the following can be performed. There may be two or more products or services related to the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying a product or the like, and various models or conditions for sale or service provision may be provided for each e-commerce provider 13-. 3a, 13-3b) may differ from one another. At this time, the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b provide the user 1-17 with the goods or services provided therein and those provided by the external e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b together. Can present

In both of the above, the subject commerce with the user 1-17 becomes the electronic commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b.

In normal commerce, producers and sellers are legally separated for industrial products. In particular, this phenomenon is further exacerbated when distribution is premised, such as collecting and selling goods or services of a plurality of producers as in the case of department stores. On the other hand, there may be cases where the producer and seller are legally matched, such as art or custom-made sales.

When there is an economic benefit or certain contribution, the problem of its distribution becomes important. The economic benefits or contributions generated in the process of the present invention are largely generated by advertisements, traffic increase, and electronic commerce. Therefore, the distribution is a problem.

The following is a configuration of a model in which the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b are suppliers 13-4 of goods and the like in relation to the distribution of profits. When entering the virtual space of the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b due to the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods or the like, the e-commerce provider 13-3a. , 13-3b) may provide a certain amount of compensation, such as a contract, to the ranking management center 1-1, the supplier 13-4 such as an external product, or an electronic commerce related information provider. At this time, the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods or the like is not only an advertisement of the producer of the goods or services but also an advertisement of the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b. (Conceptually similar to the example of a leaflet advertisement in a super market and a newspaper advertisement in a department store) Therefore, the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b are digital contents 13-2 or ranking display contents displaying a product or the like. (13-1) associated with the subject (ranking management center (1-1), supplier of external goods and the like (13-4) or digital content (13-2) indicating an e-commerce-related information provider or other goods, etc.) A theoretical basis for providing a certain reward to the ranking display content 13-1 provider, etc. is generated. Of course, there is a theoretical basis that can provide a certain reward for the subject related to the marked content even in the distribution of profits resulting from the electronic commerce. The actual reimbursement is by contract or other agreed relationship.

In some cases, the producer / provider of a product or service is a supplier 13-4 of a product or the like. That is, for a certain advertising activity, such as exposure of digital content 13-2 or ranking display content 13-1 displaying a product or the like, a reward is given to a person who contributes to the exposure of a product or service. If you pay. Even in this case, of course, the basis for the compensation described in the model in which the e-commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b are the suppliers 13-4 such as goods is naturally applied.

When the user interacts with the digital content 13-2 displaying the goods or the like on the web page of the ranking management center 1-1 or the ranking display content 13-1, such as a click, the user 1-17. May not go directly to the e-commerce site. That is, the first ranking management center 1-1 when a user visits an electronic commerce site after stopping by a related content provider associated with a digital content 13-2 or a ranking display content 13-1 displaying a product or the like. It will be necessary to make a fair assessment of the contribution of the government. To do this, web surfing (ie, tracing) data of the user 1-17 is required. These traces are shown in the log file by default, especially when the user (1-17) enters the user (1-17) number (ID) and password (Password) on the Ranking Administration Center (1-1) website. If you log on, you can track more accurately. In addition, this process is further performed if each moving site has a specific contractual relationship, and if it is obliged to share the tracking data for each movement in the contract content or to transmit it to the ranking management center (1-1) that needs it. The formation of trace data is facilitated.

In the event of economically valuable gains in the movement of users 1-17, e-commerce, etc., the first ranking management center 1-1 and related content providers will have a distribution of profits under contracts or other arrangements.

E-commerce provider 13-3a, 13-3b = digital content 13-2 or ranking display content 13 indicating a supplier 13-4 such as an external product or an e-commerce related information provider / other product, etc. -1) The configuration for the model that is the provider.

If the moved place is not the place where the commerce can be carried out, the above process can be repeated to finally move to the e-commerce provider. At this time, the content provider transmits the information of the e-commerce provider among the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 indicating the product or the like to the non-e-commerce provider. For example, when the non-e-commerce provider becomes the ranking management center 1-1, the e-commerce may be induced by using the transmitted information. For example, if a user (1-17) interacts with information about a product or a mark such as a hyperlinked trademark with the site, the user may have information or hyperlinked with the site. The digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 indicating a product or the like may be transmitted to the content provider to be moved. In this case, the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 indicating the received product or the like to be transferred may be displayed to the user 1-17.

Second, electronic commerce occurs in the place where electronic commerce is possible. When the user (1-17) selects a product or service and completes a payment process, the e-commerce transaction is completed. (For the sake of simplicity, exceptions such as cancellation or refund will be followed by convention.) During the course of the commerce or after the completion of the commerce, the e-commerce provider sends the commerce information to every supplier, such as a product (13-4) or e-commerce related information, in accordance with contract or internal regulations, such as for a certain period of time, certain items or units of value. Information can be sent to the provider.

Large websites display "Ranking Management Center (1-1) = E-Commerce Providers (13-3a, 13-3b) = Providers (13-4), such as external goods, or e-commerce-related information providers / other goods, etc. Digital content 13-2 or ranking display content 13-1 provider " These websites usually involve a login process by entering a user (1-17) number (ID) and password. Of course, there are many cases in which various search engines do not require a login process at the time of filing the present invention, but it is a general trend to require login.

When the identity of the user 1-17 is confirmed, the following points can be considered.

First is a special discount process. If a user (1-17), a member of a website, uses the content provided by the site and conducts e-commerce within the site, the website has benefited from the actions of the member, and thus is a non-member. You can make additional discounts. When e-commerce takes place internally, the identity of the user 1-17 is always known throughout the entire surfing process of the user 1-17 within the website, so that the user is proved to be a member at the time of e-commerce, Additional special discount procedures may occur. When this special discount is mediated, the user 1-17, which is a member, also benefits, and the effect of increasing the loyalty of the user 1-17 to the website is also generated.

Second, CRM can be considered. By accumulating and analyzing various acts within or outside of the website of the user 1-17, the user 1-17's preferences, behavior patterns, purchase or use cycles of goods or services, and other users ( 1-17) related information can be extracted and acquired. This CRM process can more easily extract information related to the user (1-17) when the contents of the website are written using a meta language (XML method, etc.). The information related to the user (1-17) is digital content (13-2) or ranking display content (13-2) that displays a product or the like corresponding to a name of a specific product or the like when analyzing the text content and extracts the name of the product or the like. It can be used effectively when determining -1). When there are a plurality of names such as products, products related to information related to the user (1-17) are preferred by the user (1-17), or information about information that the user (1-17) is likely to purchase or use. The name of can be selected in preference. In addition, even when the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the supplier or the product is selected, the user 1-17 is required when there is information related to the user 1-17. Or familiar ones. These not only increase the possibility of interaction such as interest and click on the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the products of the user 1-17, etc., but also the probability of leading to electronic commerce. To increase.

Third, a large website utilizes a provider (13-4) such as an external product or a digital content (13-2) or ranking display content (13-1) provider that displays an e-commerce related information provider or other goods. In this case, the information related to the user (1-17) collected through the CRM or the like may be a digital content (13-2) or ranking indicating a provider (13-4) such as an external product or an e-commerce related information provider or other goods. The digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1, which can be sent to the display content 13-1 provider and displays a product or the like that matches the information, is preferentially given to the user 1-17. Can present

Marketing via e-mail may be considered in the present invention. A person who sends information through e-mail can be located in the ranking management center 1-1 in the present invention. Although the information or content that is the content of the e-mail exists in the virtual space managed by the user 1-17 or in the space on the computer of the user 1-17, this is structurally normal ranking management as long as it is connected to a network. It is not much different from the content provided by the center 1-1. That is, the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying a product or the like corresponding to the contents of the e-mail may be attached and provided to the users 1-17, and the user 1 If -17) interacts with the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods or the like, such as a click, the user 1-17 may be sent to a related website. Go to an e-commerce site. In addition, the person who provides the e-mail content may advance the entire process of the electronic commerce through the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods or the like.

When a TV is connected to a two-way network, there is no big difference in configuration from a normal computer connected to the network. However, in the case where there is an interaction only with the interface of the interaction being different from the remote controller or the like, an interactive response to the same is generated. The concept of a provider 13-4 such as an external product or a digital content 13-2 or a ranking display content 13-1 provider that displays an e-commerce related information provider and other goods or the like is also valid for a TV. In particular, when there is specific information about a specific person watching TV that exists at a specific place (which occupies a position on a specific network), the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content (e.g., a product corresponding to the corresponding item) is displayed. 13-1) can be provided to viewers.

Since a personal mobile terminal such as a cellular phone or a PDA is also one of the computers of the present invention, the present invention can be applied.

Peer to peer refers to a method in which a person communicates directly with each other without going through an intermediate computer such as a server. From the standpoint of the present invention, the following two large configurations can be considered. First, the ranking management center 1-1 is external, and software for performing games or the like existing in the computer of each user 1-17 determines the performance result 2-2 of the games or the like in the ranking management center. (1-1), and the ranking management center (1-1) transmits various ranking related information of the present invention based on the transmitted ranking basic data (1-2a) of each user (1-17). It transfers to a computer or displays it in a specific space of the ranking management center 1-1.

Second, the ranking management center 1-1 exists in the computer of each user 1-17. This becomes a true P2P model, in which case the ranking management center 1-1 exists in the software itself, the software group or the operating system itself. That is, even when playing a game or the like in a P2P manner, the computer of each user 1-17 is informed of the result of the game, and the result of the ranking management center of the computer of each user 1-17 ( 1-1), the ranking management center 1-1 is the ranking management center 1 in the computer of only the data or another user 1-17 (not necessarily a opponent such as a game) connected by P2P. -1) to collect the ranking basic data (1-2a), and generates new ranking information based on this. Then, this information is transmitted (2-4) to the ranking management center of the other user 1-17.

One of the greatest features of the next generation of Internet standards, commonly called GRID, is that users (1-17) are significantly reduced from site A to site B, bringing the necessary information to their current location, -17). Even under these standards, there is only a migration between the websites of users 1-17, and the present invention can be applied well. That is, the digital contents 13-13 indicating the ranking management center 1-1, the provider 13-4 such as external goods or the like, the information provider / other goods related to the e-commerce, etc. on the computer of the user 1-17. 2) or the ranking display content 13-1 provider, the e-commerce provider 13-3a, 13-3b, etc., are treated as if they exist.

In the case of goods or services where offline factors (mass, volume, logistics, etc.) exist, the regional scope of the supplier is practically limited based on the location of users (1-17) due to time consumption, transportation costs, logistics costs, etc. May occur. It is as if the order of Jjajangmyeon in Great Wall in Gangnam-gu from Sinrim 9-dong, Gwanak-gu is not realistic. At this time, the regional scope of suppliers for a single product, Jjajangmyeon, is limited, and among the limited suppliers (for example, in Gwanak-gu), the person who supplies the most popular product (e.g., 'Donghee Bran)' Giving may be closely related to the ranking indication on the electronic map 1-4a in categories of the present invention.

Commerce is done through services or goods. The specific name of the service or product targeted by the present invention includes the goods classification table set by the Decree of the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy, as described in Article 10, Paragraph 1 of the Trademark Act, and the services targeted for all goods or services listed in the service industry classification table. The products or services described in the present invention, including those that may be specified in other classification systems in Korea and abroad, and services as occupational acts listed in the job dictionary or classification system, may be products or services not described in this table. Included in the service.

If you have a physical location (i.e. exclude an online website. If a business has an offline store and an online website, the store is included and the website is excluded.) The website is a supply of goods or services. It is included when the region is limited to a specific region.) An offline commerce company that provides goods or services based on region. According to the nature of the service or product handled can be classified as follows.

First, there are service-based commerce companies such as schools, academies, hospitals, pharmacies, PC rooms, game rooms, inns, and the like. If they are conceptually subdivided, they can be divided into services such as tutoring, tutoring, lectures, consulting, masseurs, paperwork, etc., and hospitals, sports centers, and barber shops.

Second, a commerce company that targets goods, products, or fluids that can be traded independently. For example, florists, bookstores, stationery stores, hardware stores, electronic stores, furniture stores, Japanese restaurants, Korean restaurants, Chinese restaurants, snack houses, bakeries. There are coffee shops, pubs, pubs and so on. In addition, as shown in the restaurant also includes a case in which the distinction between the product and the food to provide a good food to eat both.

For these area-based commerce companies, the ranking management center 1-1 may go through a registration or registration process.

The premise for this region-based e-commerce process is as follows.

First, there is input of evaluation information (2-3) of users (1-17) regarding the goods of the region-based commerce company itself or the goods or services they supply with respect to the goods or services. It is collected, classified, categorized, stored, processed or analyzed through -1) and exists in the ranking DB (1-11a) state.

Second, the user 1-17 may be paid or free of charge for access to the ranking DB 1-11a, and may optionally include a user 1-17 authentication process.

In relation to commerce, the present invention relates to an electronic commerce space in an e-commerce space on a network connected to (1) hyperlinks, etc.) in a ranking management center 1-1 and 2) in a ranking management center 1-1. There are times when commerce takes place.

The former can be roughly divided into 1) the type of ranking information provided and 2) the type in which commerce actually takes place. The types of commerce occur are, again, 1) delivery of goods, etc. 2) rights to use goods or services (13-6) (online gift certificates, service vouchers, exchange vouchers with goods, etc.). There are cases where only numbers, objects (including digital content) representing media rights, such as those that can be exchanged for movie tickets, represent all rights acquired for offline goods or services.

The latter may include 1) the case where the ranking management center 1-1 simply brokers the ranking information, and 2) the case where the ranking management center 1-1 conducts a three-party transaction.

The configuration of the type of providing only ranking information is as follows.

First, the ranking management center 1-1 is connected to the terminal of the user 1-17. The connection may be a wired or wireless network, and the connection is a computer defined by the present invention. There is an interaction with the computer of the user 1-17 for the connection, which includes actions required in any connection process such as text input, voice input, number input, and click.

In connection with this connection, an identity authentication process for the user 1-17 may be required, and the charging process may be involved in the connection itself. In connection, grasping location information is important, and the information is 1) inputting location information of user 1-17, 2) computer of user 1-17 automatically providing location information, and 3) ranking management center. (1-1) obtaining location information through IP address analysis of user 1-17, etc. 4) method for obtaining location information of user 1-17 from a network provider, 5) using GPS And the like. The location information of the user 1-17 may be location information in which the computer of the user 1-17 is located, but may also be location information of a place where the user 1-17 wants to receive a desired product or service. For example, when you want to drink coffee at Apgujeong-dong, Gangnam-gu, at 3 pm Saturday, approaching Sillim-dong, Gwanak-gu, the user (1-17) wants to be a ranking for a coffee shop in Apgujeong-dong, Gangnam-gu, so the latter is important here as location information. At this time, a default concept may be introduced, or may be a place where a computer of the user 1-17 connecting to the ranking management center 1-1 is located as a default position.

Second, input the intention of the user 1-17. The user 1-17 may, in relation to the ranking management center 1-1, 1) specify a product or service, 2) input a feature for the product or service, and 3) the other ranking management center 1-1. In order to extract the necessary information from the DB, it is necessary to input various search terms.

In some cases, the intention of the user 1-17 is input first, and the ranking management center 1-1 can be connected by transmitting the input 2-4 to the ranking management center. At this time, the existence of a program capable of interworking with the ranking management center 1-1 on the computer of the user 1-17 is required. For example, when the user 1-17 inputs "Jjangmyeon" by voice into the mobile phone, the mobile phone with the voice recognition device identifies, analyzes, grasps, assigns, and searches the voice input to the user 1-17. Outputs the best information that best matches the intent of Examples of optimal information may include "jjajangmyeon", "Chinese restaurant", "restaurant", etc. in relation to the input, and if there is a hierarchical relationship between the pieces of information, a submenu or an upper menu is displayed. The process can come out. There may be a process of checking the intention of the computer program for the input of the user 1-17. Thereafter, the coordinated program of the computer may access the ranking management center 1-1 and transmit the intention of the user 1-17. In addition, a search function may exist to respond to various search inputs of the user 1-17, and to grasp the intention of the user 1-17 in response to the singular or plural condition inputs of the user 1-17. It may be.

Third, ranking information extraction of the ranking management center 1-1. The ranking management center 1-1 grasps the intention of the user 1-17, and extracts ranking information corresponding to the intention from the ranking DB 1-11a. After extraction, the ranking management center 1-1 may prepare for transmission to the computer of the user 1-17. At this time, information about the output device of the computer of the user 1-17 may be required. The ranking management center 1-1 may respond to the information about the communication protocol or other protocol in the communication standard of each computer, the type of software such as the hardware and the browser of the user 1-17 computer. In other words, the ranking management center 1-1 may utilize the information to process the extracted ranking information. Of course, there is a program linked to the computer of the user 1-17, so that the ranking-related information can be processed and output to the user 1-17.

Fourth, the ranking information transmission process from the ranking management center 1-1. At this time, some or all of all the relevant information on the ranking may be transmitted, and ranking basis data 2-10a may be transmitted together. The information transmitted together may include any related information such as location information about the provider of the goods or services, directions, directions, history, telephone numbers, and discounts. When ranking information is provided to the user 1-17, the supplier of the product or service corresponding to the first or upper ranking may give a certain reward to the ranking management center 1-1. This means that the ranking management center 1-1 stores the access information of the user 1-17, and presents the information to the supplier (the analysis of the access log may provide the supporting data, and the contract corresponding to a certain number of exposures). There may be various contracts between the supplier and the ranking management center 1-1.). The Ranking Management Center (1-1) is not the first or the top ranking, but will send information about recommendations for suppliers of a particular product or service to the user (1-17) independently of the information on the first or top ranking provider. Can be. The above description focuses on the case where there is a supplier of goods or services. In the same or similar configuration, ranking information on the product or service itself may be provided to the user 1-17 independently of the ranking information on the supplier.

Fifth, it is a display process of ranking information. Various criteria may be applied to the ranking of a product or service or a supplier thereof, and a specific ranking holder may vary according to each criterion. In other words, individual items such as price or satisfaction, kindness, cleanliness, design, taste, durability, after-sales service, sales, etc. may be the criteria for ranking, and overall satisfaction may be the criteria for evaluation. Information input to the management center 1-1 may include evaluation information corresponding to individual evaluation criteria as well as the overall evaluation. Therefore, the ranking management center 1-1 may provide ranking information for the overall evaluation separately, and may transmit the ranking information corresponding to various various criteria to the users 1-17. This is 1) when the user 1-17 enters an individual criterion of "price" from the beginning, and 2) the overall ranking information (default can be set according to the intention of the user 1-17) regardless of the individual criterion. ), And the user 1-17 interacts with the information, such as inputting / selecting individual criteria, to rearrange the rankings. This rearrangement may occur on the computer of the user 1-17 and not on the ranking management center 1-1. The user 1-17 interacts with the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods and the like to receive various services provided by the ranking management center 1-1. It may be.

Electronic commerce with a rights counterpart 13-6 presupposes all of the above types of provision of ranking information only. That is, the following description will be made after the assumption that the user 1-17 transmits the ranking information about the goods or services themselves or their suppliers.

Digital content (13-2) or ranking display content (13-1) for displaying a product or the like is a content for displaying ranking and ranking-related information (content containing information about a supplier (13-4) such as a product is When present, when the ranking related information exists in relation to the content, the content containing information about the provider 13-4 such as the product is also digital content 13-2 indicating the product or the like, or Ranking display content 13-1), digital content (digital text, images (images are time-linked representations of images, include stereoscopic images), sound) and analog Form content (text displayed in analog form, images (images are temporally linked representations of images, include stereoscopic images), and sound). Specifically, for the purpose of displaying the ranking information, the content corresponding to the specific ranking-related information includes various decorations (10-6), colors, sounds, items (decoration, packaging, badges, other symbols), avatars, slogans, flags, Refers to content consisting of marks, patterns, symbols, letters or figures, or a combination of two or more thereof. When interacting with the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying this commodity or the like, display of hyperlinked information or a set of information occurs in response to the action. Among them, information sets or contents providing electronic commerce exist, and electronic commerce takes place there.

In order for commerce for a product or service to occur, the following internal processes exist.

First, a specific process for goods or services and their suppliers. The specific purpose can also be achieved by the action such as a click on the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 for displaying a product or the like. That is, the product or service is already specified according to the intention of the user 1-17, and at the stage of specifying the supplier, the overall ranking of the suppliers or the ranking of individual criteria (for example, 'price value satisfaction', etc.) Information is presented, and action can be made on the information to complete the specification. For identification purposes, detailed information about the ranking evidence data 2-10a or other goods or services supplied by the suppliers may be provided. This information may be found by the ranking management center 1-1 in advance, or may be provided by an external supplier and then made into a DB, and then provided by the user 1-17. In addition, it can be provided from outside in real time by using robot technology such as XML technology and webbot and provided to the user (1-17), and the virtual on the network that provides various information including descriptions of related products or services of suppliers. You can also display spaces in concatenations or in separate windows. In other words, the specific process is the initial stage of commerce and the final process of collecting information about eye shopping or goods or services.

In this particular process, any promotional information may be presented to activate or promote other commerce, including incentives such as discounts and miles, specific events, gifts and the like. When the user (1-17) has been checked, there is a certain contribution by inputting evaluation information (2-3) to the ranking management center (1-1) for the product which the user intends to conduct e-commerce, and the like. Information about benefits such as a discount may be displayed.

Second, the process of outputting payment and rights counterparts (13-7). Payment may use existing payment means (including mileage, online vouchers, etc.) for normal electronic commerce, with the completion of the payment process and the output 13-7 of the rights counterpart. That is, when the settlement process is completed, the ranking management center 1-1 obtains information on the normal output when the right counterpart 13-7 or the right counterpart 13-6 is normally output. After the payment can be completed. Where the output includes: 1) outputting to an offline medium through a printer or the like, 2) personal ranking management space 1-5 or user 1-17 of the user 1-17 in the ranking management center 1-1 Specified space (virtual space for payments under the control of users (1-17), virtual accounts, payment space on the network, online accounts for Internet banking, payment space provided by specific companies, your email address, mobile phone, etc.) When used as a payment device, payment for the terminal or user (1-17) of the storage device inside the portable communication terminal or the person providing the communication network (for example, SK telecom, etc.) in the communication through the portable terminal. For example, the transmission of the rights counterpart 13-6 to the virtual space. The right counterpart 13-6 or its output includes a valid owner (identification number, approval number, user (1-17) name, social security number, etc.) that exists for the exchange of goods purchased by the user 1-17. Or any means of identification mobilized to prove that they are the owner.

Third, any information related to commerce such as goods or information that the supplier should know to the supplier 13-4, such as goods, at the same time as, before, or after the output 13-7 of the rights counterpart (the user in the case of ticket booking) When 1-17 presents the rights counterpart 13-6 printed on the paper at the ticket window, the ticket counter displays the user (1) through the data received from the ranking management center 1-1 before the ticket issuance. Identify the identity of -17), which means any information for this).

In addition, the ranking management center 1-1 may provide any information (address, phone number, directions, etc.) about the supplier 13-4 such as a product.

If there is a delivery process, the ranking management center (1-1) transmits the information about the delivery to the person (1-17) or the person involved in the delivery of goods, such as the supplier.

If e-commerce occurs outside the ranking management center 1-1, the process described in the above-described type of providing only the ranking information and / or the rights described in the case where there is a right correspondence 13-6 exists. It assumes all or part of it.

In the case where the ranking management center 1-1 merely mediates the ranking information, the following configuration may be provided.

First, the ranking management center 1-1 displays information of the supplier 13-4 such as a product in a specific category (eg, a regional category, for example, 'Gwanak-gu, Seoul') desired by the user 1-17. Together with the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 and / or other ranking related content indicating the same.

Second, when the user 1-17 interacts with the digital content 13-2 or the ranking display content 13-1 displaying the goods or the like, the e-commerce provider 13-3a or 13- associated with the content. To the virtual space of 3b). The ranking management center 1-1 may receive certain rewards from external electronic commerce providers 13-3a and 13-3b in exchange for contributing to the connection by prior contract. In particular, when the electronic commerce actually occurs, the information may be transmitted (2-4) to the ranking management center, there may be a separate compensation process for this.

Third, if there is delivery of goods or the like, the ranking management center 1-1 may take off only the delivery for the delivery, and mediate the delivery.

Ranking management center (1-1) becomes the center and can do 3rd party transaction. That is, the user 1-17 can deal with the ranking management center 1-1, and receive the transaction details, so that the ranking management center 1-1 can do business with the suppliers 13-4 such as goods. . When delivery of goods, etc. exists, only the thing about the delivery may be removed, and the ranking management center 1-1 may intermediate delivery.

The hardware system configuration for local-based commerce may be as follows. The ranking management center 1-1 basically consists of a main server and a ranking DB server. The ranking DB (1-11a) server stores various databases such as various category result DBs, evaluation results, and detailed ranking DBs for each category based on the personal information of each user (1-17). 1-17), it is a server that manages various DB servers, etc., and is the backbone that handles various data. Optionally, it includes a homepage or a personal ranking management space (1-5) for each user (1-17) or an evaluator. If a complicated electronic map is desired, a geographic information DB server is separately implemented, which may be imported from outside. In addition, the evaluator may input evaluation information through an evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 provided inside or outside the ranking management center 1-1, and an agent who substitutes the evaluation information may perform the evaluation result collection operation. Finally, the evaluation result is displayed on the display of the user 1-17 or the evaluator's computer. The user (1-17) authentication and compensation processing system linked to the evaluation information acquisition system (1-9) is in charge of the identity authentication and compensation system for the user (1-17) or the evaluator of the commerce that entered the evaluation information. .

In the connection of the user 1-17 to the ranking management center 1-1 for commerce, the exposure of the information of the ranking to the user 1-17 indicates the advertising effect and ranks the user 1-17 with the higher rank. This can be benefited by inducing commerce in the business, and if the evaluation information for determining the ranking is also solved by the input of the user (1-17), the interest in building the reliability and ranking of the ranking information under the integrated system Compensation for the derivation and evaluation information input (2-3) is possible.

An example of the interaction between each user at this time, a commerce company, and the ranking management center 1-1 is as shown in FIG. 19.

Each interaction in FIG. 25 is represented by an arrow. When explaining the action of each arrow,

First, a commerce user wants to access the ranking management center 1-1 to obtain information. (19-5-1)

Second, ranking information displayed on the electronic map is delivered to the user 1-17. (19-5-2)

Third, the user 1-17 selects a commerce business from the delivered ranking information and makes a transaction with the commerce business. (19-5-3)

Fourth, in the case of a transaction using a ranking system, a discount is granted in exchange for advertising or a company selection through a ranking system (19-5-4). It may be presented and provided, or may be provided and presented by each commerce company individually.

Fifth, the evaluation information for the used business is input into the evaluation system. (19-5-5) This process can be performed simultaneously or at the same time as the fourth process, or after a considerable time. It is as follows and it is as above.

Sixth, the entered evaluation information is transmitted to the ranking management center 1-1, and the ranking DB is updated. (19-5-6)

Seventh, in exchange for the evaluation information input (2-3), a reward is given to the input user (1-17). (19-5-7)

A commerce portal site. It builds a portal site that encompasses all region-based commerce. It is a site that provides regional ranking for each field by dividing the detailed categories by service by product and classifying them into a directory format.

The directory format is classified into multiple levels such as sub-category, sub-categories, and sub-categories in detail, and the category of the top level is presented on the front page, and when the user (1-17) selects the desired category, It shows the classification of the steps, linking these links in every step. When list information about suppliers of various goods and services is displayed under a specific category, the list information is not simply listed as in the results of a normal search engine search, but the list information is linked to the ranking information. For example, you can provide a list of rankings in order of highest ranking. At this time, if this directory having the above characteristics is made only with the product, a DB having the hierarchy of the product may be made. If only the service is made, the DB having the hierarchy of the service may be made, and the person ( If only a group or a group is created, a DB with a hierarchy of people or groups can be created.

When ranking information is displayed in a list, the ranking information exists in a form of digital content (a form of existence of content shown to the user 1-17 according to various display devices such as pictures, texts, and charts). In addition, the digital content is hyperlinked, and when the digital content is clicked or interacted with, the digital content provides access to the basic data on which the ranking is made and information on the ranking decision process. In addition, there may be digital content indicating that the product or service and a press release such as the press or other evaluation information such as another person exist near or around the ranking information. The digital contents are hyperlinked, and when users interact with the digital contents by clicking on them, they can obtain press releases and evaluation information about the products or services and the companies or people who provide them. Or it can help the consumer choose. The contents of this paragraph apply or mutatis mutandis to all ranking information displays in which the display of ranking information is digital content and hyperlinked to the digital content. The above is also the same and the following is also the same.

The user 1-17 selects a region of interest first or later, and then selects a desired commerce category to receive ranking information. Regional selection can be gradually narrowed down to the desired level of detail in a wide range of areas. The level and location of the region to be used as a starting point are automatically selected by the user's address or the address of the workplace, if the user's information is identified (1-17) or by a symbol set by the user (1-17) in advance. The area representing the highest frequency can be selected by determining the flow of regional selection of the user 1-17. The category of commerce is a portal area-based commerce that includes all categories of services based on region-based products, and is presented in a directory form, searched by a search function, or compressed by analyzing preferences and usage patterns of users 1-17.

It provides the above service by grouping sites classified by category. This is the case when specialized in one or two categories of commerce, including the economically wide-area region. For example, there is a food ranking site, and its homepage is like food.ranking.com. For example, each region has a wide range of areas such as Seoul, Gyeonggi, Gangwon, Busan, and Gwanak-gu, Gangnam-gu, Bundang, Misari, etc. It provides a list of caterers and rankings of customer satisfaction or user (1-17) ratings in narrow areas, such as colleges and subways, but not in scope and administrative area.

Provides ranking services by relatively small area. For example, the Gwanak-gu regional portal site provides a list of various commerce sites located in Gwanak-gu and provides various rankings of customer satisfaction. It can be operated in a more detailed manner, such as local commerce site for each apartment complex, integrated with a living information site, local government office site, or simply linked.

As a specific example of such regional-based commerce, we would like to introduce a regional commerce system.

Suppose there are specific and narrow regional ranges, such as Bundang, Pyeongchon, Ilsan, and Mungdu Streets, and if these regions have their own centers of commerce, then the local people will have cultural needs such as shopping, food, entertainment, and sports. It will serve as a space that meets the needs of the life supplying and supplies. In particular, the ranking information for the center of commerce that is developed mainly in transportation centers such as large department stores, large discount stores, subway stations, etc. is very useful when the apartment complex is concentrated according to the plan of a new town with close surroundings. And effectively trigger a deal.

In this case, the following may be considered as a terminal device providing ranking information.

First, local commerce portal sites provide information through high-speed networks connected to homes. This is useful when residents use services that can be ordered without having to travel from home. Or, groups such as individuals and families can grasp local information before going out and select the commerce company to use in advance. In particular, various needs such as shopping, movie tours, meals, drinking, and the use of refreshments are planned. It becomes possible to carry out. If there is a commerce site searched at home, a discount coupon may be issued to a pre-selected company in exchange for information access, or it may be linked to a reservation service. You may also benefit from discounts, especially when you prepay for goods or services.

Second, as a wireless Internet service using broadband communication network, it provides information such as location, characteristics, and price of nearby excellent service companies while people are moving or using commerce. Or, by installing several stations of short-range wireless Internet service such as 802.11b, it is possible to connect to mobile terminal devices owned by individuals.The service can be performed at places used by the general public such as department stores, movie theaters, convenience stores and large discount stores. Can help you choose the next commerce company you want.

Third, a large screen is installed in a key point that can be called the core of the center of commerce, and an electronic signboard that attracts people's attention is installed, or a large display screen car is operated. The signboard displays ranking information for various categories on an electronic map displayed on the signboard. In addition to ranking information, you can present general broadcast content such as local news, product advertisements, music and music videos, as well as a map showing the list, features, merits and location of commerce companies. In particular, electronic billboards can provide information while circulating the center of commerce, taking advantage of the ability to move. Such a display medium may be subjected to interaction with the user 1-17, and on the electronic map 1-4a for various commerce categories in consideration of the fact that many users 1-17 can be viewed simultaneously. The ranking information displayed in (2-9) may be displayed while circulating for an appropriate time as the advertisement is changed on TV. This can be especially true when neighboring locals use family commerce, couples, lovers, and friends as they use a commerce and wander around without a specific purpose, for example, after dinner and then reluctantly Let's say you have a lover who goes around looking for something. Ranking of cafes in the neighborhood, rankings of pubs, rankings of pubs, rankings of video rooms, rankings of clothing stores, etc. In addition, the rankings for ice cream shops are sequentially and accompanied by the recent video rental rankings, various cocktails and wine types, and the latest song list, so that they can actively induce commerce.

Fourth, by installing terminals of the same size as ATMs in various places around the center, post maps around the area, traffic information such as subways and buses, public information such as public offices, hospitals, etc. When 17) selects the desired category, the commerce ranking information is displayed on the monitor of the terminal. When the user 1-17 interacts with the terminal by a touch screen, a keyboard, or a voice recognition method and selects a desired commerce category, ranking information is displayed on an electronic map displayed on a monitor.

The ranking information may be provided in various media as exemplified above, which may be used as a means for inputting evaluation information by the user 1-17 using the commerce company.

An application invention related to the present invention is an online education guidance system.

Those who have defeated various challenges in certain categories in the game and have maintained the first or the highest ranking for a long time can be regarded as having various differences in the game or the like for the holders of the lower ranking. Therefore, a person who maintains the first place or the like may advise, transfer, or teach the holder of the lower rankings of the difference. And, although the ranking is not high, those who want a skill for a person who has a specific skill in a game or the like have a difference between the skills. That is, when there is a difference in the overall technology as well as in the partial technology, advice, transfer, or teaching may occur about factors causing the difference. In this case, the person who advises, transfers, and professors is defined as a teater, and the person who receives advice, transfers, and professors is defined as a learner, and the advice, transfers, professors, etc. Defined as teaching. When the ranking management center (1-1) relates to education, it can be conceptualized as an 'education management center'. Therefore, this case is referred to as "education management center (ranking management center 1-1)".

The basic flow of advice, transfer or teaching in this case is as follows.

First, as a result of a game or the like, the ranking is displayed on the electronic maps 1-4a specified in various categories, and the learner recognizes the information on the ranking.

Second, the subject informs the instructor of the intention of teaching. At this time, the notification of this lesson may or may not go through the education management center (ranking management center 1-1). When the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) passes through the notification of the teaching itself, the education management center can provide both the information about the teacher and the subject.

Third, the teaching conditions are agreed between the teacher and the subject, and the teaching contract is concluded by the agreement between the teacher and the subject. The Education Management Center (Ranking Management Center (1-1)) may intervene in the terms and contracts of the teaching, and may contribute to the completion of the contracts, such as the settlement of the terms and the advice of the contractual relationship or the preparation of the contracts. You can also oversee the implementation process. This is especially meaningful when the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) becomes the main agent and closes the contract. Results of teaching, etc. (Overall information on evaluative judgment on teaching and various changes after teaching are called results of teaching, etc.)

A detailed description of the process of the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) in contributing to the contract between the instructor and the subject is as follows. In the above and below, if the process of 'contract' exists or is mediated, the following process is equivalent or equivalent to the demand of the goods or services on the part of the instructor, the supplier of the goods or services on the part of the learner, and the educational management 'Third party' at the center (ranking management center (1-1)) and goods or services are replaced or applied in the teaching place. The same applies to the teaching related DB in FIG. 14.

Firstly, the learner requests a lesson by designating a tutor to the education management center (ranking management center 1-1). At this time, the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) provides the learner with the result of analyzing the performance result (2-2) of his / her own game related to the intention of teaching and the teaching and teaching the learner to some extent. See if you can make it public. Of course, regardless of the intention of teaching, when the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) gives a ranking, the limit of the information that can be disclosed may be set, and the information may be separately disclosed in the procedure such as registration. You can also set the level.

Second, the learner requests a lesson from the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) without specifying the tutor. In this case, the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) searches for a user (1-17) DB such as a game managed by the user who can satisfy the contents and conditions of the teaching requested by the subject. Select a candidate for the instructor, notify the candidate with the condition of intention to teach, and provide this information to the instructor. The tutor is determined by narrowing the range of the tutor through the interaction of the tutor, the subject, and the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)). The tutor or subject may be plural. Figure 14 shows an example of the DB of the teacher.

The teaching management center (ranking management center (1-1)) in relation to the teachings will be described in detail as to how to rank the subjects.

First, the performance results (2-2) of the instructor's game, etc. are ranked by various detailed categories. This applies to a case in which a win or loss, such as a TOEIC or TOEFL, a quiz, an online game, a problem solving math or science, is determined or a score that can be quantified by an internal standard occurs.

Second, there is a case where an evaluative judgment must be made externally. In other words, the quality of the lecture, the contents of the lesson, the method of teaching, etc. are determined on their own and it is difficult to quantify them by internal standards. In other words, they should be evaluated externally. The method of making this evaluation judgment is explained in full detail.

In the following, a detailed evaluation will be made on the case of evaluating externally to determine win / loss, quantification, and ranking.

First, the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) is responsible for all kinds of contents (teaching materials, teaching methods, teaching contents, teaching conditions, teaching periods, etc.) related to teaching of teachers. Information is disclosed to the education management center (ranking management center 1-1), and the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) is judged by the user 1-17 online. Asks. The judgment of the user (1-17) includes how to give a score, how to rank when there are a number of conflicting tutors, and when the two tutors contend for the teaching content provided by the user (1-17). Depending on the evaluation, there may be a law in which the first place wins and the second place wins and loses. There are a plurality of evaluators, and the number of evaluators increases as the evaluation proceeds. The scores, wins, and loses of the students who were evaluated by these evaluators are transferred from the user 1-17 to the education management center (ranking management center 1-1), processed, and stored in a DB as illustrated in FIG. These rankings are displayed (2-9) on the electronic map 1-4a for each category specified by the instructor. Such evaluative judgments may include creating indirect relationships with instruction such as good looking and good voice. (DB in Fig. 14 shows that the teaching field is a supplier of a product or service, the teaching field is a product or service of a specific field, the teaching location field is a position where a product or service is supplied, and the teaching condition is a field. The provision shall apply mutatis mutandis to the DB for e-commerce on goods or services, such as on the condition that the goods or services are supplied, etc. Furthermore, the instructor described in this online education guidance system shall be a supplier of goods or services, As a buyer of a product or service, teaching content as a product or service in a specific field, teaching field as a field to which the product or service belongs, teaching group as a supplier group of goods or service, and teaching location as a product Or where the service is supplied and the teaching conditions are set to If the teaching is used in the sense of acts, the online (partially offline may be included) for the purchase, purchase, use, etc. of goods or services. The act creates an e-commerce process for goods or services, and some or all of the inventions described in this online education guidance system are applied mutatis mutandis to e-commerce using 'teaching' as 'goods or services'. That is, the teaching can be located as an example of service provision during e-commerce.

Second, assessments can be recruited during or after instruction. This can be provided as useful information for the learner or the learner who later connects to the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) after the initial lesson. That is, the learner evaluates the subjects' judgments about the various items provided by the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) or the judgments made by the instructor and the subject by the subjective method. Judgment can be made, and the instructor can also make an evaluative judgment about the subject. Judgment on these is stored in the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) and the level of disclosure is determined in advance by the level agreed with the instructor and the subject, and is disclosed accordingly.

As a result of the evaluation, the information that can be displayed on the DB and the electronic map 1-4a stored in the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) is as follows.

First, the Education Management Center (Ranking Management Center (1-1)) stores the rankings of the instructors for specific specific categories and the results of the various evaluations that generated the rankings. If a category is specified by the pointing device on (1-4a), the subject can be provided with the ranking and related materials for the desired subject.

Second, the learner inputs his or her condition (type of game, category, area of interest or region, area, other condition) into the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) as a search method, and the result is displayed. You may ask. That is, by searching the DBs of the teaching management center (ranking management center (1-1)) to find the optimal teacher group or teacher candidates, the teacher who meets the desired conditions is searched. For reference.

The configuration and operation of the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) in online or offline teaching will be described as follows.

First, in the 100% online lessons, the principle is that there is no distinction between regions online, so anyone can receive their desired teaching content from the top of the country or the world. Problems occurring at this time are as follows. First, there is a need for translation. That is, if the teaching language of the teacher and the language desired by the subject do not match, the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) may provide a translation or subtitle service. Second, if the demand for a particular lesson exceeds the capacity of the server that supplies the content, use a cache server or mirror site, or if the lesson is not a real time interaction, e-mail the lesson content. You can send a different time, or recommend teaching content of other tutors.

Second, teaching is conducted in parallel with online and offline. That is, when the instructor and the instructor meet in a specific physical space (a school, a game room, or a place having a physical entity), the contents of the instruction come and go. In this case, due to the offline factor, it is virtually impossible for all candidates to be instructed on the national or the world's number one. Therefore, the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) must distinguish 100% online from what is not according to the characteristics of the teaching content and respond to the condition input of the teacher. In consideration of the physical location of the subject, the instructor may disclose what should be done offline in his / her teaching contents, and this should be reflected in the information of the instructor by the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)).

Linked to the educational institution and the present invention system has the following configuration.

Of course, education includes not only school education, but also the whole education such as kindergarten, computer education, certificate education, cooking education, etiquette education, and educational institutions include entrance examination school, moisturizing school, computer school, certificate school, flower arranging school, and cooking school. It includes all educational contents (including service) providing organizations, and all educational contents providing organizations, individuals belonging to educational organizations, and individual instructors who do not belong to educational institutions.

Each worker of the educational institution becomes a member of the user 1-17 when accessing the educational management center (ranking management center 1-1), which becomes a content provider. The contents provided by them are provided to the education management center (ranking management center 1-1), and the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) reflects the contents and evaluation information provided by them and ranks them by category. And the corresponding information is displayed on the electronic map 1-4a in correspondence with the position to meet the information request of the subject. At this time, the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) and the educational institution mediate the learner in accordance with the contract signed in advance. At this time, if the physical institutional limit of the teaching institution is exceeded, no more learners are mediated but they are informed about other educational institutions and mediated with them.

The education management center (ranking management center 1-1) mediates the teaching institution and the subjects so that teaching can occur between them.

The ranking of the contents provided by each instructor or educational institution changes from time to time due to evaluation, etc., and the result is displayed on the electronic map (1-4a) or searched in real time through the education management center (ranking management center 1-1). Provided by the instructor and the subject.

The present invention is described by taking mathematics education as an example.

Suppose there is a category called trigonometric functions in high school first grade math. Mathematics corresponds to learning in games, and is a mathematics as a curriculum among various learning contents. It is a mathematics for one year of high school from kindergarten arithmetic to university mathematics. A category called Hen is created. Of course, under the category of trigonometric functions, detailed items such as trigonometric basics, trigonometric graphs, trigonometric equations, and application to figures can be made.

Trainer A, who lives in Gwanak-gu, Seoul, and Trainer B, who lives in Busan, posted their teaching contents for this trigonometric function to the Education Management Center (Ranking Management Center (1-1)), and the Education Management Center (Ranking Management Center (1- 1). 1)) can give rank or victory to A and B teaching contents by accessing and evaluating the subject. This result is represented on the electronic map 1-4a. Let A be the winner (better rated). Then, in the case of national units, regardless of who requests information, the ranking of the nation's No. 1 ranking is occupied by the instructor A, and this information is represented on the electronic map 1-4a. If a trainee b in Busan specifies Busan and asks about the ranking on the electronic map (1-4a), the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) will select B, the No. 1 electronic map (1-4a), in Busan. ) (2-9).

If C, who lives in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, became the nation's No. 1 by uploading teaching contents about the trigonometric function, C would be ranked at the national level, A at Gwanak-gu, and B at Busan. At this time, the ranking of A and B is determined according to the ranking method determined internally by the education management center (ranking management center 1-1).

If a learner a living in Gwanak-gu, Seoul specifies Gwanak-gu as a condition for the location of the teacher's teaching, he or she connects the instructor A to C in an electronic map (1-4a) or a search, and links information about C to A. If you want a teaching content of C, even if a takes the inconvenience of teaching location, provide it. If each teaching content occurs 100% online, then C is given in preference to A or B, given that the subject does not know that the teaching content is provided 100% online despite the specification of Gwanak phrase. In this way, the subjects connected to the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) are the best instructors on the electronic map (1-4a), that is, the instructor, tutor, person who will teach the game, You can find a variety of teachers, such as kindergartens, academies, and groups of teachers.

For education-related content providers, the concept of education manager is introduced. The education service contents provided by the education manager are in charge of the planning, management, counseling, consulting, analysis, and advice of the teacher's education, and are the comprehensive services that support the education, not the lesson content itself (for example, a trigonometric function). Says the offer. Hereinafter, education-related content provided by the education manager is called education service contents, and a person who receives the service is defined as an education service content consumer.

Those who wish to be a training manager provide their education service contents to the education management center (ranking management center 1-1), and the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) announces this, and the user 1 -17) evaluates them, constructs the results into a DB, gives rankings for each category of each education manager, etc., and links them to positions on the electronic map 1-4a to the users 1-17. It displays and responds to search requests from users 1-17. In addition, the result is built into the DB reflecting the feedback of the user 1-17 or the evaluator over time, and the data is updated by reflecting the result in ranking or the like.

The interaction between the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) and the education service content provider is configured as follows.

The education management center (ranking management center 1-1) gives the education service content provider a virtual space inside the education management center (ranking management center 1-1). In this virtual space, the contents of the service contents provided by the educational service contents provider, the related information of the service contents providers, or the contents that can interact with the contents and the DB are built based on the contents. When the educational service contents provided by the training manager operate only at 100% online, and when the online and offline operations are performed in parallel, the configuration of the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) in the online or offline lessons described above. And the manner of action.

If the educational service contents are provided in parallel with the online and offline, the education manager's service is subject to location constraints. In other words, educational service content providers are subject to location constraints when they need to meet, visit, or gather multiple consumers in a certain place to plan, manage, consult, consult, analyze, and advise on education. Therefore, even if not belonging to the top ranking nationwide, when maintaining the top ranking in a particular region of a particular category, the demand for the education service content that he provides may be an appropriate amount. This is especially true for the overall effect of the overall design and planning of education, such as entrance examinations, certifications, parenting education and education of expertise.

The Education Management Center (Ranking Management Center (1-1)) connects educational service content consumers and providers through electronic maps (1-4a) and search, assists in the contract system, and pays the price if there is a price. Mediate.

Further expansion of the spirit of the present invention can be applied to the following places.

Arbitrary services must have the following attributes: First, the provision of the service must be restricted in place. That is, it should be provided based on a certain area where all or part of the service, such as a hospital, a beauty salon, a restaurant, a jjimjilbang, can be practically limited. Second, all or part of the service must be able to be presented online in a particular way. That is, in the case of a beauty salon, the services provided in the beauty salon, such as a sample of a hair style, should be able to be presented online such as details of products such as a comprehensive health examination program in the case of a hospital. Third, the consumer of the service should be able to evaluate from the information on the online service, and the evaluation includes a large evaluation evaluation on the contents of the service actually experienced by the consumer offline.

If the above conditions are satisfied, each service provider can be given a win or lose based on the evaluative judgment, and a ranking or the like is generated based on this score, which is then placed on the electronic map (1-4a). It can be displayed in correspondence with the location information of the service provider. For example, if a particular restaurant called Naju Gomtang is ranked first in the local category of Sinrim-dong, Gwanak-gu, the name of Naju Gomtang is displayed on the electronic map (1-4a). Can respond to searches.

Locations of trainers, educational service content providers, and other service providers that meet certain conditions of the present invention may be provided in conjunction with a geographic information system (GIS). When teachers, educational service content providers, and other service providers satisfying certain conditions of the present invention are based on physical location, meeting with consumers at the physical location is often required. This is because the Geographic Information System (GIS), which has a database of geographic information, can help you find the meeting place and make the process easier.

Non-regional commerce refers to a case where the geographic area subject to commerce is wider than the province, metropolitan city, or national size. For example, the demand for electronic products is spread evenly across the country, and the sales network, service network, and marketing to customers are all targeted to the whole nation.

In this case, the overall flow of the ranking management center 1-1 and the hardware configuration is not different from that in FIG. 1, but the evaluator identity authentication and compensation training management center (the ranking management center 1-1) serves as the main configuration module. do.

As for the regional category among the many categories to be ranked, in the seventh local-based commerce, the user (1-17) to be evaluated and the regional basis of the evaluator when the evaluator is a general public are identical. On the other hand, in the case of non-region-based commerce, there is no regional base of users (1-17), so when rankings are displayed on the electronic map (1-4a), not the base of the users (1-17), but the base of the evaluators. As the ranking can be displayed. For example, suppose you have a washing machine with Samsung, Daewoo, and LG's electronics. At this time, the ranking information system 1-12 acquires evaluation information of the user 1-17 for each area. If you have a DB, you can display the customer satisfaction of each company on the electronic map by region.

Even for non-regional commerce, each product category can be subordinated to various vertical and horizontal categories. For example, washing machines are subordinated to vertical categories under household appliances under electronic products, under industrial products, and the washing machines themselves can be categorized by price for high, medium, and low prices, and dehydrated by function. It is possible to classify the functional categories such as, and can form a horizontal category under the coma, such as refrigerators, dressers, duvets, jewelry rings. Therefore, as described above, the company's customer satisfaction for each manufacturer may be displayed on an electronic map, and ranking information may be displayed on a conceptual map of each product category. For example, Samsung ranks first in the category of low-cost models with simple functions, while Daewoo's product ranks first in the category of high-priced models with multiple functions, which is displayed on the electronic map (1-4a). Is possible.

The evaluator's category can be classified into various categories such as the 20's, 30's, 40's or more, or the male or female's gender classification, married or unmarried classification.

Therefore, when an electronic map is not a digital map of geographical concept but a conceptual map for a highly virtual category, the preferences of various user categories (1-17) for various product categories, customer satisfaction, product purchase volume, etc. The information can be displayed classified by rank on the electronic map 1-4a, which can be used as a tool for customer relation management of each company.

An example of the basic flow of such an application is as follows. Here, the user (1-17) refers to a commerce company to be ranked, and the evaluator is a general person using the user (1-17) or an expert in the field, or enters the evaluation information after using the company. Say

First, a non-region based commerce company that is a user of the ranking (1-17) inputs necessary information or personal information. Alternatively, the manager of the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 collects such company information.

Second, based on the inputted company information, the ranking management center 1-1 generates various detailed categories of the user 1-17 or belongs to the previously generated categories.

Third, in the case of an anonymous evaluator system, the evaluator inputs his / her necessary information or personal information prior to the evaluation, and then the user (1-17) identity authentication and compensation education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) Access to verify your identity. The system is implemented inside the ranking management center 1-1 or exists separately outside.

Fourth, the evaluator performs the evaluation after using the user 1-17, and the result is input to the evaluation information obtaining system 1-9. Such evaluation is made online and in the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 existing separately from the ranking management center 1-1 or in the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 existing inside the ranking management center 1-1. Or by a delegate in lieu of the operation of such evaluation information obtaining system 1-9.

Fifth, the evaluation result is transmitted to the ranking management center 1-1.

Sixth, the ranking ranking reflecting the category is generated by processing the input evaluation result.

Seventh, the user 1-17 or the evaluator selects the destination category 8-2 from a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a.

Eighth, ranking DBs 1-11a for the selected category are transmitted to be displayed on the electronic map.

Ninth, the user 1-17 or the evaluator checks the desired ranking for each category on the electronic map 1-4a.

In terms of hardware of the ranking management center 1-1 for non-region-based commerce, the ranking management center 1-1 basically includes a main server and a ranking DB server. The ranking DB (1-11a) server stores various databases such as various category result DBs, evaluation results, and detailed ranking DBs for each category based on the personal information of each user (1-17). 1-17), it is a server that manages various DB servers, etc., and is the backbone that handles various data. Optionally, it includes a homepage or a personal ranking management space (1-5) for each user (1-17) or an evaluator. If a complicated electronic map is desired, a geographic information DB server is separately implemented, which may be imported from outside. In addition, the evaluator may input evaluation information through an evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 provided inside or outside the ranking management center 1-1, and an agent who substitutes the evaluation information may perform the evaluation result collection operation. Finally, the evaluation result is displayed on the display of the user 1-17 or the evaluator's computer. The user (1-17) authentication and compensation processing system linked to the evaluation information acquisition system (1-9) is in charge of the identity authentication and compensation system for the user (1-17) or the evaluator of the commerce that entered the evaluation information. .

In particular, in the case of non-regional commerce, there is no regional restriction, which is closely related to online purchasing behavior. In other words, if the transaction does not require the movement of a customer who uses commerce, or if it is possible to deliver the item for commerce, the transaction excludes a product that has a large impact on the product due to the delivery time and cost of the delivery, as in the case of Jjajangmyeon. Offline purchases and online purchases do not show much difference. Using this, ranking information displayed on the electronic map may be linked to an online purchase.

An embodiment of the flow of the buying behavior thereof may be as follows.

First, a user 1-17 accesses a ranking site for a non-regional based commerce product.

Second, the user 1-17 moves to the category of the desired product through surfing and searching on the connected site.

Third, ranking information for the item desired by the user 1-17 is displayed on the electronic map, which is evaluated based on various criteria such as price, design, quality, consumer preference, after-sales service, etc. 17) is selected by comparing information about different aspects of the product with those of the competition.

Fourth, detailed information about the selected product is presented, and a commercial interaction system (21-3) is pressed when predetermined interactions, for example, an order menu that appears when the right mouse button is pressed, an order button that is located at a specific position of the window, and the like. ) Is linked.

Fifth, an order is completed with a single click based on basic information previously input by the user 1-17. Recognition of the user (1-17) uses an ID and password given to the individual, a fixed IP address of the computer, a program installed on the computer for order payment, cookie information about the site, and no basic information is entered. In this case, the user 1-17 inputs information necessary for ordering, payment, and delivery. Discounts may be granted in exchange for use of the ranking system.

Sixth, the goods are delivered to the user 1-17.

Seventh, after the user 1-17 uses the product or the service, the user inputs the evaluation information about the same, and this is reflected in the ranking.

Although the above-mentioned delivery may be made directly by a commerce company, a third party who has been entrusted by the commerce company (the person providing the ranking related information or the operator of the ranking management center (1-1) and the resignation or reconsignment from them) Include the recipient). At this time, the information of the conclusion of the transaction and the information about the consignment are transmitted to the third party, and the third party handles the delivery work. The advantage of this case is that economies of scale are realized (i.e., orders from multiple vendors are gathered and processed) so that purchase orders (such as Samsung 17-inch monitors) can be ordered in bulk if the product is standardized. Savings can be reduced, and the efficiency of delivery is increased and the cost is reduced because a single delivery vehicle handles the shipping business of many companies. Always applies, same as above, same as above.

Such a system configuration when a transaction for a non-regional based commerce item occurs can be made as shown in FIG. 21. The non-regional based commerce brokerage system 21-3 is a ranking management center for a non-regional based commerce item 1-1. In conjunction with (21-1), digital content is supplied from the producer and provider (21-2) of the non-region-based commerce item and supplied to the user (1-17). The lines and arrows shown in FIG. Point out the interaction between them. If we talk about each interaction,

First, users (1-17) (21-4) are provided with rankings for non-regional based commerce items from the non-regional based commerce ranking management center (1-1) and use them as selection criteria of purchase. It also purchases non-regional based commercial items, uses them, and provides feedback on the evaluation to the Ranking Management Center (1-1) (21-1). (21-5-1)

Second, the provider (21-2), which collectively refers to producers, intermediaries, and suppliers of non-regional based commerce items, registers each non-regional based commerce item in the non-regional based commerce ranking management center (1-1) (21-1). In order to stimulate the purchase desires of users 1-17 and 21-4, and to induce a transaction, a clear picture of a non-region-based commerce item and a three-dimensional stereoscopic image Provide information. The ranking management center 1-1 and 21-1 serves to induce the provider 21-2 of the non-regional based commerce item to provide such information. (21-5-2)

Third, the user (1-17) grasps the ranking information for each non-regional based commerce item from the electronic map provided by the non-regional based commerce ranking management center (1-1) 21-1, and the detailed information about this. If the user decides to purchase the non-local based commerce ranking management center (1-1) 21-1, the user 1-17 (21-4) is the non-local based commercial brokerage system 21-3. ) To assist the user 1-17. The non-regional commerce brokerage system 21-3 may be implemented within the non-regional commerce ranking management center 1-1, 21-1, and may exist as an independent system. 21-5-3)

Fourth, when the user 1-17 decides to purchase and accesses the non-regional based commercial intermediation system 21-3 to order the desired non-regional based commercial items, the provider of the non-regional based commercial items 21-2.

Ranking information may be provided for everything that may be the subject of contents such as broadcast programs, songs, music, columns, books, book reviews, various software programs, designs, cartoons, and games. It refers to the digital works that can be traded electronically and those that can be used as the contents of old media such as newspapers, magazines, TVs and radios, or new media such as Internet broadcasting, various portal sites and interactive TVs. All.

Although not having a physical property based on region, various contents belong to various categories having high virtuality and can provide ranking information while being displayed on an electronic map that visualizes these conceptual categories. In particular, the ranking information for the digitizable content can be used as an important gateway of the digital content distribution market.

For example, a ranking site for digital content specialized in entertainment or entertainment would handle the following content. Audio, music video content, movies, dramas, comedy, news, cartoons, documentaries, video content such as advertisements, pop songs, rock, etc. The necessary information or personal information of the entertainment industry such as singers, movie stars, and models, or personal information contents such as recent trends, character analysis, work analysis, interviews, etc. form various subcategories, and visualize such highly virtual content. The user 1-17 searches and selects a category of interest on the electronic map, and the upper content of the ranking list of the presented content is digitized, thereby directly inducing electronic distribution. It is a model that induces and encourages the public's attention to the content that the highest popularity and attention is focused on, especially the entertainment content.

Another useful example of a ranking site for such content is a ranking site for digital works. Books may be printed and distributed offline on paper, distributed online in the form of an e-book, and used on a general-purpose computer, an e-book reader, or a general-purpose mobile terminal such as a PDA. -17) can be seen, because the various categories are generated according to the contents of the book, by visually displaying them on the electronic map and providing ranking information to promote interest in the best sellers of each genre, It can be linked with e-book commerce distributed online.

On the other hand, the ranking concept can be applied to various learning contents, and it is possible to think of learning contents in various fields such as English, mathematics, management, science, common sense, law, various notices, programming, and financial technology. In the category of English, there are various detailed categories such as GRE, GMAT, TOEFL, TEPS, LSAT, SAT, English Composition, Reading, Listening, Grammar, Word, Idioms, etc. by grade level. In mathematics, various categories such as middle school mathematics, high school mathematics, probability, statistics, set, calculus, function, and computational mathematics are formed. Ranking information of various learning contents can be provided in the electronic map for the various categories. For example, in the GMAT category under English, the 1st Park Jung Language School GMAT Contents, the 2nd JCMBA GMAT Contents, and the 3rd Lee Hoik Language School GMAT Contents are ranked in the rankings, and the users (1-17) Links with content providers can be provided, leading to promotion of fair contents and fair spread of transactions. Such learning content is delivered to the user (1-17) in electronic file format, e-book material, daily, weekly, monthly, annual mail, auxiliary storage media such as CD, DVD, Floppy Disk, etc. Can be.

An example of the basic flow of ranking for this is as follows:

First, the user 1-17, who produces the content or acts on behalf of its sale and brokerage, inputs his / her personal information. Alternatively, the manager of the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 or a representative thereof collects such necessary information or personal information.

Second, based on the necessary information or personal information input, the ranking management center 1-1 generates various detailed categories of the user 1-17 or belongs to the previously generated categories.

Third, the evaluator performs evaluation on the user 1-17 and the result is input to the evaluation information obtaining system 1-9 and 185. Such evaluation is made online and is an evaluation information acquisition system (1-9) 185 existing separately from the ranking management center (1-1) or an evaluation information acquisition system (1-1) existing inside the ranking management center (1-1). 9) 185 'or by a delegate in lieu of the operation of such evaluation information acquisition system 1-9.

Fourth, the recording result is transmitted to the ranking management center 1-1.

Fifth, a ranking ranking reflecting a category is generated by processing the input evaluation result.

Sixth, the user 1-17 or the evaluator selects the destination category 8-2 from a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a.

Seventh, the ranking DB 1-11a for the selected category is transmitted to be displayed on the electronic map.

Eighth, the user 1-17 or the evaluator checks the desired ranking for each category on the electronic map 1-4a.

The hardware configuration of the ranking system for the contents constituting the entire flow is as follows.

The content ranking management center (1-1) 181 is basically comprised by the main server 182 and the ranking DB server 183. As shown in FIG. The ranking DB (1-11a) server stores various databases such as various category result DBs, evaluation results, and detailed ranking DBs for each category based on the personal information of each user (1-17). 1-17), it is a server that manages various DB servers, etc., and is the backbone that handles various data. Optionally includes a homepage or personal ranking management space (1-5) (184) (184 ') for each user (1-17) or evaluator, and if you want a complex electronic map, the geoinformation DB server 187 can be It may be implemented, which may be imported from the outside (187 '). Then, the evaluator inputs or replaces the evaluation information through the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 provided in the inside 185 'or the outside 185 of the ranking management center 1-1 to collect the evaluation results. Can be performed. Finally, the evaluation result is displayed on the display of the user 1-17, 186, 186 'or the evaluator 188, 188' on the computer. Each of these components is connected by a network, and the various connection lines of FIG. 18 indicate that these components are connected by a network.

If the digitized content is displayed (2-9) on the electronic map (1-4a), it can be immediately brokered or traded to enable a fair evaluation and reward of the value. The digital content belonging to the upper level is easily exposed to multiples and attracts attention, and thus mass distribution is possible due to the nature of digital content that can be easily formed and infinitely copied. Alternatively, the price of the digital content belonging to the upper rank and the price of the digital content belonging to the lower rank can be differentiated.

The online transaction system / digital content brokerage system using the ranking of digital content such as an e-book is referred to as a "commerce provider" in the non-region based commerce system of FIG. 21, and a "non-region based commerce brokerage system". It can be configured by replacing the "digital content mediation system" in place and the "ranking management center for digital content" in place of the "non-region based ranking management center".

 The digital content brokerage system is interlocked with the ranking management center 1-1 for digital content, and receives digital content from the producer and provider of the digital content and supplies the digital content to the user 1-17. If we talk about each interaction,

First, the user 1-17 receives the ranking of the digital content from the digital content ranking management center 1-1 and uses it as a selection criterion for purchase. In addition, the digital content is purchased and used, and the feedback of the evaluation is provided to the ranking management center 1-1.

Secondly, the providers collectively referred to as producers, intermediaries, and suppliers of digital content register each digital content in the digital content ranking management center 1-1, input detailed information thereof, and purchase the user 1-17. In order to stimulate the desire and drive the transaction, the content of the teaser version of each digital content that can be distributed online is provided. This includes novel plots, thumbnails of pictures, collections of intros to music, copies that are less compressed than the original, but can capture the basic characteristics of the original, and only clipping a portion of the entire digital content. It appears in the form of. The ranking management center 1-1 serves to induce the digital content provider to provide such information, prototypes, teaser, and the like.

Third, the user 1-17 grasps the ranking information of each digital content from the electronic map provided by the digital content ranking management center 1-1, obtains detailed information about it, obtains a taster product, and uses it ( After the test and use, if the purchase decision is made, the digital content ranking management center 1-1 provides the user 1-17 by providing a link for the user 1-17 to access the digital content trading system. To help). The digital content transaction system may be implemented within the digital content ranking management center 1-1 and may exist as an independent system.

Fourth, when the user 1-17 decides to purchase and accesses the digital content trading system and orders the desired digital content, the user 1-17 purchases formal digital contents provided by the digital content provider. It is responsible for mediating the content from the user 1-17 to the user 1-17, thereby providing the method of payment to the user 1-17 to help the payment amount be transferred from the user 1-17 to the provider. Such a digital content trading system may be a system owned and operated by a digital content provider, a system owned and operated by a group of digital content providers, or may be owned and operated by an independent entity.

The nine categories are classified according to the application targets, but a ranking portal can be considered separately. The concept of a regional ranking portal that encompasses everything from games, commerce, testing, people, organizations, etc., goes beyond the concept of an information site that provides basic local information, by providing regionally ranked information on many aspects of life. It is not valueless enough to be called a flood of garbage information, but rather a valued, classified and verified information provider.

How to construct its model is as follows.

First, as a general search engine portal categorizes websites by dividing each category into directories in a single website and provides homepage information selected and selected according to the general information fidelity, all the previous application targets are categorized together. Directory type ranking information is provided.

Second, it links various sites that constitute one hub site and its infrastructure. For example, game.ranking.com is the ranking site for games, and people.ranking.com is the ranking site for people. Shop.ranking.com is a ranking site for commerce that has shops on a regional basis. In addition, ranking sites for bookstores such as book.shop.ranking.com can be implemented by adding the above URL.

It is not the result of one or two acts, but it can quantify and compare the public's interest and consciousness about the activities and persistence of people and groups. First, as an individual, celebrity popularity preference, politician image, administrator, civic activist evaluation, etc. In particular, evaluations of individuals in occupations that are of public interest include second-hand citizens, executives, government offices, corporations, municipalities, non-profit organizations, for-profit organizations, public interest corporations, corporations, foundation corporations, etc. An assessment of the public's activities or of those with special interest in that kind of organization. This evaluation can be ranked by the category of the people and organizations to be evaluated by belonging to the evaluation, it can be displayed (2-9) on the electronic map (1-4a) by region and organization.

An example of the process by which an evaluation is made in the ranking system of person and group evaluation and it is disclosed to the media such as an electronic map is as follows. Here, the person and the group to be ranked are referred to as the user (1-17), and the subject performing the evaluation or the opinion of the user (1-17) is called the evaluator.

First, the user 1-17 of the ranking inputs personal information. Or, the manager of the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 collects such personal information.

Second, based on the necessary information or personal information input, the ranking management center 1-1 generates various detailed categories of the user 1-17 or belongs to the previously generated categories.

Third, the evaluator performs evaluation on the user 1-17 and the result is input to the evaluation information obtaining system 1-9. Such evaluation is made online and in the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 existing separately from the ranking management center 1-1 or in the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 existing inside the ranking management center 1-1. Or by a delegate in lieu of the operation of such evaluation information obtaining system 1-9.

Fourth, the evaluation result is transmitted to the ranking management center 1-1.

Fifth, a ranking ranking reflecting a category is generated by processing the input evaluation result.

Sixth, the user 1-17 or the evaluator selects the destination category 8-2 from a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a.

Seventh, the ranking DB 1-11a for the selected category is transmitted to be displayed on the electronic map.

Eighth, the user 1-17 or the evaluator checks the desired ranking for each category on the electronic map 1-4a.

The ranking management center 1-1 of person and group evaluation basically consists of a main server and a ranking DB server. The ranking DB (1-11a) server stores various databases such as various category result DBs, evaluation results, and detailed ranking DBs for each category based on the personal information of each user (1-17). 1-17), it is a server that manages various DB servers, etc., and is the backbone that handles various data. Optionally, it includes a homepage or a personal ranking management space (1-5) for each user (1-17) or an evaluator. If a complicated electronic map is desired, a geographic information DB server is separately implemented, which may be imported from outside. In addition, the evaluator may input evaluation information through an evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 provided inside or outside the ranking management center 1-1, and an agent who substitutes the evaluation information may perform the evaluation result collection operation. Finally, the evaluation result is displayed on the display of the user 1-17 or the evaluator's computer. Each of these components is networked.

In providing ranking information about such persons and groups of people, the advantage of providing them at the regional level, in particular, is that when the direct action of an expert in a certain field is required, the information is transmitted electronically and the expert moves to the logistics and so on. The overall cost is relatively small. For example, for builders looking for outstanding plasterers, the expert ranking system provides ranking information of outstanding plasterers in each region so that the optimal selection can be made in consideration of transportation costs according to regional movements. This can contribute to the promotion of local e-commerce.

Representative examples of collective evaluations include public institutions and civic interest groups (NGOs). After using the offices, ward offices, and various complaint counters, the user conducts an evaluation of the services of the organization and hands over the evaluation information to the ranking information system. The evaluation can be classified into multiple levels according to the nature and complexity of the job, and a multi-question evaluation list can be provided, a type of A, B, C, D, or a direct score entry. . The evaluation scores assigned by the user to these evaluation items and the rankings of the institutions determined according to them are shown in the various categories provided on the electronic map, and are known to the general public to be used as an opportunity to improve public service of each public institution. do.

For example, the customer service of various government offices in Gwanak-gu is based on the evaluation of users who use these services. Will be displayed as

Indeed, a person or group that is the subject of a ranking may not want to actively participate in being publicly assessed and ranked and displayed on the electronic map. In this case, there is a difference at the beginning of the basic configuration of the ranking system.

First, evaluators (persons who are evaluating evaluations, groups of those people, or systems created and owned by them) of people and organizations select the evaluation targets and classify them into various categories.

Second, the evaluator evaluates directly or receives evaluation from the general public.

third. The evaluation result is transmitted to the ranking management center 1-1.

Fourth, a ranking ranking reflecting the category is generated by processing the input evaluation result.

Fifth, the evaluator or the user 1-17 of the ranking information selects the destination category 8-2 from a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a.

Sixth, the ranking DB 1-11a for the selected category is transmitted to be displayed on the electronic map.

Seventh, the evaluator or the user 1-17 of the ranking information confirms the desired ranking for each category on the electronic map 1-4a.

Among the spontaneous and anthropogenic consequences, the current state is a relative comparable one, particularly the Guinness Book by region, which is a smaller category than the state, especially in the record of unusual ones that can attract public attention. For example, the highest blood donation king in Sillim-dong, the tallest person in Gwanak-gu, and the highest building ranking in Gangnam.

An example of the basic flow of ranking for this is as follows:

First, a user (1-17) who has a record worth climbing to the Guinness Book of Record enters his personal information. Alternatively, the manager of the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 or a representative thereof collects such necessary information or personal information.

Second, based on the necessary information or personal information input, the ranking management center 1-1 generates various detailed categories of the user 1-17 or belongs to the previously generated categories.

Third, the user 1-17 makes a record worth ranking in the Guinness Book of Records and enters it into the evaluation information obtaining system 1-9. At this time, such records should be observed by an evaluator who evaluates and verifies them. The observed records are prepared online and exist separately from the ranking management center 1-1 or the ranking management center. (1-1) performed in the evaluation information obtaining system 1-9 existing therein, or by a delegate in place of the operation of such evaluation information obtaining system 1-9.

Fourth, the recording result is transmitted to the ranking management center 1-1.

Fifth, the ranking ranking reflecting the category is generated by processing the input evaluation result.

Sixth, the user 1-17 or the evaluator selects the destination category 8-2 from a medium such as the electronic map 1-4a.

Seventh, the ranking DB 1-11a for the selected category is transmitted to be displayed on the electronic map.

Eighth, the user 1-17 or the evaluator checks the desired ranking for each category on the electronic map 1-4a.

The hardware configuration for configuring such an overall flow is as follows, as shown in FIG.

The ranking management center (1-1) of the Guinness Book is basically composed of a main server and a ranking DB server. The ranking DB (1-11a) server stores various databases such as various category result DBs, evaluation results, and detailed ranking DBs for each category based on the personal information of each user (1-17). 1-17), it is a server that manages various DB servers, etc., and is the backbone that handles various data. Optionally, it includes a homepage or a personal ranking management space (1-5) for each user (1-17) or an evaluator. If a complicated electronic map is desired, a geographic information DB server is separately implemented, which may be imported from outside. In addition, the evaluator may input evaluation information through an evaluation information acquisition system 1-9 provided inside or outside the ranking management center 1-1, and an agent who substitutes the evaluation information may perform the evaluation result collection operation. Finally, the evaluation result is displayed on the display of the user 1-17 or the evaluator's computer. Each of these components is connected by a network, and various connection lines of FIG. 16 indicate that these components are connected by a network.

An application invention associated with the present invention includes a specialist recruitment system for each field.

Sectoral specialists may correspond to all of the preceding application configurations. For example, various game masters, politicians, administrators, entertainers, publicly known figures, hairdressers, barbers, pastors, real estate professionals, accounting professionals, swimming instructors, designers, providers of various commerce and services, content creators and intermediaries Etc. are all included. In the rankings of the categories in which the experts fall, the upper level experts can teach to non-experts or those who are lower in rank and lower than themselves, as in the previous teaching guidance system, or provide lectures about their experiences and knowledge. It is a commerce that provides a service at a cost by using the skills and experience of an expert such as directly acting on another party and generating an object.

Expert affiliations are grouped into categories, subcategories, and subcategories, and are provided in a directory format with similar categories, providing convenience by allowing users to search these directories in the search box. It is offered in monthly, yearly, etc., and offers a list of experts who have a lot of direct transactions due to the price, apart from those who are well rated and ranked in the top rankings.

The basic flow of enabling such a service is as follows.

First, the rankings of experts in each field are displayed on the electronic maps 1-4a specified in various categories, and the service user 1-17 recognizes the information on this ranking. The user (1-17) selects an individual category, such as an area in which the expert works, provides a service or a product, and a region, gender, school, or organization to which the expert belongs, and the order of selection is the user (1-17). Can decide. For example, if the user 1-17 wants a tennis lesson, first select a field called tennis, select an organization category called Seoul National University, grasp the ranking, and then request a match, a lesson, and advice. The advantage of selecting an organization category, Seoul National University, is that the user (1-17) is a student at Seoul National University, which makes it easy to conduct activities such as fighting and teaching using a tennis court in the school. Alternatively, if the user 1-17 selects a field of plasterer and selects a local category called Gwanak-gu, and uses the ranking information displayed on the electronic map, the user can request and bargain directly with the higher rankers.

In order for service users (1-17) to easily identify the top experts in the rankings and to provide more comprehensive and accurate information, when the top experts in the rankings are displayed on the electronic map, a link is provided to detail these experts. Allows you to navigate to the homepage or virtual space where you explain, and includes expert columns, education, careers, works, teaser works, various introductions, awards, number of service offerings, work schedules, and a look-up table for the cost of using the service. To provide. By providing detailed, unusual and interesting information, news, columns, etc. on the field as well as the information of the experts in the top rankings, users (1-17) find more interest in the field frequently. Can see For example, in the real estate field, a large number of users (1-17) can be secured by providing general real estate common sense and ticker tables, various financial techniques and columns using real estate, and information on related interiors with electronic maps. (1-17) can lead to stickiness (Stickiness).

Secondly, the service user notifies the service provider of the intention of using the service. In this case, the notification of the teaching may go through a management system. Alternatively, the service user and the service provider may be directly contacted by providing a contact point of an expert in an electronic map or a space linked thereto. The education management center (ranking management center (1-1)) provides both the detailed information about the instructors and the subjects when the notification of the use of the service passes through itself, secures the reliability of the transaction, and provides the general transaction price. By providing a fair deal for both parties.

Third, if the terms of service use are agreed, a service contract for providing services by an expert is concluded. The Education Management Center (Ranking Management Center (1-1)) may intervene in the detailed terms of such agreements, and may contribute to the completion of the agreements, such as the conclusion of the terms and the advice of the contractual relationship or the preparation of the agreements. You can also oversee the implementation process. This is especially meaningful when the education management center (ranking management center 1-1) becomes the main agent and closes the contract.

Comprehensive information on evaluating the results of service provision and various changes after service provision is provided by another expert who belongs to the ranking management center (1-1) or commissioned by the education management center (ranking management center (1-1)). The service user can feed back the service of the expert used by the service user to the ranking management center 1-1 via the evaluation information acquisition system 1-9.

The ranking management center (1-1) will be described in detail the process of contributing to the contract between the user and the provider of the service as follows.

First, the service user requests the ranking management center 1-1 by designating an expert who becomes a service provider. At this time, the ranking management center 1-1 examines the intention of providing the service to the expert and to what extent the detailed information of the expert can be disclosed to the service user. Of course, regardless of the intention of providing the service, when the ranking management center 1-1 gives a ranking, the limit of information that can be disclosed may be set, and the level of information disclosure may be individually determined in the registration process. It may be.

Second, the service user requests the service providing without specifying the expert to the ranking management center 1-1. In this case, the ranking management center 1-1 searches for a specialist who can satisfy the details and conditions of the service requested by the service user in the DB of the user 1-17 such as a game managed by the service user. The candidate is selected, the candidate is notified of the intention of providing the service together with the condition, and the information is also provided to the service user. Through the interaction of experts, service users, and the ranking management center (1-1), the experts to provide services are determined while reducing the scope of the experts. The expert or service user may be plural. For example, by integrating a number of service users who want a plasterer, you can introduce the plasterer to reduce the cost of using the service, gather a number of experts in the related fields, such as plasterer, bricklayer, interior designer, etc. It is a team that gathers start-up applicants who want to start a local-based commerce service company in the commerce area, and teams up experts in the top rankings of various categories such as general start-up consulting experts, start-up successors, real estate experts, and finance experts. The team is providing start-up service to founders.

The relationship between the mutual payment between the user 1-17 and the ranking management center 1-1 for viewing the ranking information for the experts in each field is classified into the following relationship.

First, the advertisement is paid to the user (1-17) who sees the advertisement as a concept of advertising that exposes the experts in each field who want to provide the service to the multiple users (1-17) who use the service.

Secondly, the user (1-17) is paid for using the information in that detailed information on the difficult to obtain experts is provided while ranking among the experts.

Third, the user 1-17 freely reads the ranking information without any mutual payment relationship.

This division is determined by the manager of the ranking management center (1-1) according to the professional field and the social value of the human resource DB.

An application invention related to the present invention may constitute a betting system in cyberspace. You can bet on games. Things that can be played in games can be money, cyber money, mileage, credits, victory points, points, items such as games, other oil prices, all of nothing, and options. These bets help to win the games with different rankings, not only increase the concentration and interest in the game, but also allow third parties to place bets or loses on games or games. This betting system also helps in activating trading for rankings.

When there is a game or the like, this game or the like sometimes has the nature of an event. The nature of an event refers to the following factors: First, when the progress of the game, etc. is disclosed to others, second, when the information of both participants, such as the game, is disclosed externally; third, the difference in the expectations of each participant of this event with respect to the winning or losing of both parties. (difference) For example, when A in the top ranking and B in another top ranking in a game, etc., compete for the top level category (such as the StarCraft Seoul championship), the game is not available to many users (1-17). ), So that the progress of the game, etc. can be revealed, and the information of A and B (the total number, etc., ranking number 1, etc.) can be provided to others, and if the win or loss is not obvious, It has an event character. When the highest number of mathematics in school A is honored by the highest number of mathematics in school B and is bounced into mathematics on the cyber, at least two schools have an event character.

In order for a bet to be established, there must be something that can be bet at the same time that the condition of existence of the event personality is satisfied. That is, there are no restrictions on what can be bet, but it must not be a gambling crime under criminal or other special laws. In other words, the ranking may be given a total score by the history of the game or the like, and the total score or risk of a certain portion of the ranking (for example, if one of the cheering ones loses) If you give 3 opponents to your opponent, you lose 3 against that opponent, and the result of your bet is reflected in your ranking, so you can risk losing or losing the ranking. This bet must be of value that can be objectively exchanged, redeemed, or exchanged between each participant or via the Ranking Management Center (1-1). The result of betting, etc., will be allocated according to the rules set internally when win or lose.

An application invention related to the present invention includes a computer connected to a wireless network, and a commercial guidance system using an intelligent vehicle equipped with a monitor capable of displaying contents such as an electronic map.

A car is not forbidden for political reasons by the individual who owns or drives the car, and can reach any desired area to which a road is connected, and is free to move from one area to another. This mobility of automobiles has different attributes from local-based commerce of the previous application, which assumes that the commerce is focused on a specific region, or non-regional-based commerce for the entire region. In other words, even local-based commerce can induce commerce by contacting various regions.

Computer systems mounted in automobiles are wirelessly connected to a network, through which the commerce related information is provided. Information is provided as follows.

First, commerce related information is provided through a network in real time from a regional-based portal commerce site in a specific region. For example, when a person who comes to work by car enters a neighborhood near work, the residential commerce portal site displays the ranking of various fields of commerce on an electronic map (1-4a) displayed on the monitor (2- 9) When entering a company or other area, the local commerce portal site will provide ranking information on the electronic map. From the regional portal commerce site covering various categories such as restaurants, furniture stores, entertainment facilities, sports facilities, public facilities, florists, pubs, etc. When selected, a detailed map of a commerce company may be displayed, a telephone number may be announced, a telephone may be connected to a Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), and a reservation may be made using a wireless transaction system. , Order, payment, etc. can possibly be linked.

In the process of accessing the portal commerce site of the region, the user (1-17) in the vehicle can search the commerce site for the desired region on the wireless network and access the site, and the car network terminal The unique number assigned to the device is transmitted through the network and the location can be identified as the location of the GPS or wireless base station and guided to the adjacent portal site. Or, the wireless system operated by the operator of the regional-based commerce portal site communicates directly with the network terminal device of the vehicle, locates the position, and provides ranking information.

Second, information is provided on the commerce ranking site for each specific item. This site provides a wide range of information on local commerce establishments, so that users 1-17 can provide ranking information for regional categories. For example, let's say a traveling car driver uses a site that offers rankings for properties. On the electronic map provided by the wireless network, users (1-17) can obtain the ranking of the accommodations around Daecheon Beach, and can expand the category range to obtain the ranking of the accommodations in Boryeong-gun, Chungcheongnam-do. Ranking information can be obtained. Alternatively, on the electronic map, the user 1-17 may obtain a ranking of the property in an arbitrary area drawn freely on the map by using a keyboard or a touch screen. In particular, it meshes with the Global Positioning System (GPS), which sets the current location of the car, so that the current location of the car is displayed on the electronic map (1-4a) and the user 1-17 can be located within a radius of 5 km from the current location, Selecting an area within a radius of 10 km, an area within a radius of 30 km, etc., to obtain ranking information on the area. You will be able to determine the accommodations that are right for you based on your schedule, travel time, and detailed information on the rankings provided by the rankings displayed on the electronic map.

The ranking of such items includes gas stations, lodging facilities, car washes, cafes, various restaurants, tourist attractions, car centers, ski resorts, ski equipment rental shops, and swimming pools.

Third, when the user (1-17) in the car selects the desired item, all the sites providing the ranking for this item are searched, and the commerce store having the highest rank is automatically selected, and the shortest moving route is selected. For example, a suitable area range is determined according to a condition set in advance by the user 1-17. The setting by the radius distance, the setting by the time required by linking GPS, GIS and traffic information, and the method of preselecting a specific area are used.

For example, when a child in the back seat of a car wants to eat pizza, he enters pizza into the search box, and searches for a restaurant ranking site, a nearby local commerce ranking site, and the like.

An application invention related to the present invention includes a commerce guidance system using a personal portable terminal device.

A personal portable terminal with a wireless network function is portable and can be connected in real time to a person providing a wireless communication service through a transmission / reception function, and can be located due to the location of a wireless base station or a global positioning system (GPS). It has features. In particular, in the case of a mobile phone, by establishing a one-to-one correspondence with each user (1-17) using a personalized terminal device, it is easy to establish a personal compensation system according to access, identity authentication, evaluation, and use, It has the advantage that the system for payment can be implemented in the terminal device. This is possible because the portable terminal device has a storage space, a central processing unit for calculation, can install separate software, and can communicate with an external system.

The basic flow of commerce guidance using a personal portable terminal is as follows.

First, they access the gateway of a commerce ranking site using wireless communication. The access is made by bookmarking the address of the ranking site and selecting it, by directly inputting the Uniform Resource Locator (URL) of the commerce ranking (1-19), or by the user (1-17) pronouncing the promised voice protocol. This is achieved by the recognition of the portable terminal device. Alternatively, it may be assigned to a specific button or a combination of specific buttons of the cellular phone terminal by software settings that can be changed by the user 1-17. For example, pressing the asterisk (*) button and the number 7 button simultaneously leads to access to a commerce ranking site. Or, when a terminal is released, a connection for supporting a commerce ranking is made by pressing a specific button implemented in hardware.

Secondly, the mobile terminal automatically moves from the identified location of the mobile terminal device to the commerce ranking site of the corresponding region or moves to the corresponding region section of the comprehensive commerce site. Alternatively, in consideration of the fact that the user 1-17 who owns the terminal device can move, the region selection is given as a possible option.

Third, enter the desired commerce item. The entry of an item is made from a combination of Korean, English, and numbers selected from a menu or assigned to a button by operating a hardware button operation. Alternatively, a menu displayed on the screen is operated by a touch screen method, an item input from handwriting recognition, or voice recognition is used. In the case of voice recognition, it is possible to recognize only the owner by utilizing the characteristics of the personalized terminal.

Fourth, the ranking for the input item of the region is searched and a list of occupants of the upper ranking is provided. Such a list is provided on an electronic map displayed on the terminal device or provided in a hierarchical form of text. If the provided list is not satisfactory, a menu is provided to move to a higher region category or a category of a neighboring region. do.
