Platform System

Abstract

In a networkable platform system for collecting and processing information in a network comprising a plurality of real access-authorized contributors, new processing procedures and a new analysis of information are made possible by the feature to the effect that the information on the platform is formed by a plurality of dual units, wherein each dual unit comprises a public discussion and a predefinable processing criterion assigned to said public discussion.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This is a Continuation-in-Part of PCT / DE2012 / 100250, filed Aug. 28, 2012, and entitled “Platform System” and benefit is claimed of U.S. 61 / 564460, filed Nov. 29, 2011, and entitled “Platform Systems” and U.S. 61 / 786,876, filed Mar. 15, 2013, and entitled “Platform System A Platform for Focused Discussion”, and priority is claimed of DE 10 2011 111 381.2, filed Aug. 29, 2011, the disclosures of which four applications are incorporated by reference herein in their entireties as if set forth at length.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The purpose of the invention is to support focused public discussion on a specific topic, in order that a group discussion can proceed on fruitful lines, instead of being diverted or side-tracked into irrelevant directions. In particular, this invention can be used to facilitate collaborative development of a new document, or of a solution to a specific problem.[0003]The term “crowd sourcing” is used to describe...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention is a platform and method for screening comments on a discussion to ensure they are on-topic and not offensive. This technique of processing, which uses electronic filters, does not need to be perfectly accurate to be useful. The platform system combines features to form information in multiple dual units, each with a specific processing criterion. Each contributor can access the dual units and make them processable by adding their own processing criteria. The platform can also be partitioned to form more dual units by assigning different processing criteria to them. Overall, this invention allows for faster progress and prevents unwanted comments from contaminating the discussion.

Problems solved by technology

However, the prior platform systems suffer from the drawback that a specific selection of predefinable links and links that are executable according to predefinable criteria cannot be realized.
