Abstract

A search method responds to (1) a data base that stores elements (e.g., stores, programs, etc.) that are information search targets, and (2) affiliations among the elements, such as stores that sponsor programs, stores that participate in the programs, etc. Users designate the attributes (stores, programs, etc.) of elements to be searched for, and the affiliations thereof to perform searches, so that the users can easily search for desired information present on small display screens.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods and devices for searching information assemblies for targeted information. Background technique [0002] Related art search engines, such as those used by Google and Yahoo, search for information (web pages) available on the Internet by responding to URLs of keyword search target web pages. [0003] Because the number of web pages was relatively small in the early days of the Internet, target web pages could be easily found by keyword searches. However, as the number of web pages increases to its present size, it becomes more and more difficult to search target web pages by using keywords. [0004] Also, when a large number of web pages are found as a result of keyword searches, it is difficult to use keywords for portable terminals having small screens for displaying search results, such as personal digital assistants (PDAs) or cellular phones, search. [0005] Accordingly, an object of the present invention...
