Embodiment Construction

[0061] The present invention can be realized by computer hardware and software means. It may include a server side where processing of data takes place. The server end, which may be composed of one or more computer devices, preferably communicates with at least one remote user device, such as (but not limited to) desktop computers, smart phones, etc., through network resources. Communication networks for data transmission may include local area networks and / or wide area networks, such as the Internet.

[0062] Some definitions are given below:

[0063] - "End-user request" or request means a search request sent from a device of the system with the intention of obtaining results corresponding to the search parameters. In a preferred embodiment, the request is based at least in part on search parameters entered at the user device by a user, such as a remote user in communication with the rest of the system over a network. In a preferred application, the request is for a trave...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and system for processing complex queries each corresponding to a plurality of components to be combined. Elements corresponding to these components are searched. The elements are of different element types and are originally described by definition data having heterogeneous data structures. A conversion step transforms the heterogeneous definition data into converted definition data of one single format. An engine then retrieves elements and builds associations of elements matching the query parameters based on the converted definition data, thereby providing with a reply to the query in an optimized manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of data processing. More specifically, the present invention relates to the processing of compound queries, where each query involves searching a database and retrieving multiple items from the database that are to be associated together, thereby presenting to the user a logically grouped groups of said items. [0002] One non-limiting application is the processing of search requests in the travel and tourism industry domain when a user wishes to book a series of services, such as a combination of air travel services of a very different nature with hotel accommodation and / or car rental. Background technique [0003] Current search systems are quite efficient at handling requests for one type of item. In the field of the travel industry, search engines are currently widely used, and return proposals are sent in response to end user requests. This is the case for airline-specific engines, such as low-cost search engi...
