摘要： A user of a personal computing device may interact with a network-based travel service with respect to one or more travel items. The network-based travel service may monitor the users' interactions, determine user's travel interests, and provide relevant travel item provider devices information for generating user-specific offers. For example, anonymized user statistics, suggested terms for a user-specific offer, or estimated likelihood of acceptance may be provided to the travel item provider. The network-based travel service may receive and evaluate user-specific offers submitted by the travel item provider, cause presentation to corresponding users, and enable the users to accept, decline or propose modifications to the offers.

摘要： Described herein is a sparse tree data structure that may be utilized to selectively retrieve database records containing information relevant to an obtained query. Specifically, the sparse tree data structure may be utilized to prevent combinatorial explosion that may occur where responses to an obtained query requires a combination of information from multiple records. Rather than explicitly enumerate all possible combinations, the sparse tree data structure enables implicit enumeration of those combinations to determine combinations of highest relevancy. In one embodiment, the sparse tree implements a specific algorithm within the “branch-and-bound” algorithmic paradigm to reduce the time and computational resources required to response to a query.

摘要： A service for pricing items of inventory contained in a searchable database is available for access via the Internet. Where multiple items can satisfy a consumer's request, it is typical for a service to perform an inventory search for items that match a consumer's request. When the inventory is stored in an inventory database, the inventory database is queried for the purpose of retrieving a result set which matches the consumer's request. A separate fare server database containing inventory recently known to be available, located local to the Internet server for fast and efficient access, can also be provided for performing searches related to the consumer's request. Some inventory, even though recently known to have been available, is filtered out before being stored in the fare server database and inventory is removed when outdated, no longer available or purchased. Searches that are less specific than the search performed in the inventory database based on the consumer request can be performed in the fare server database to retrieve information about similar inventory. In addition to displaying the result set from the inventory database to the consumer, a market summary can be presented to the consumer that reflects information concerning similar inventory. Information from the searches in the fare server database forms the basis for providing the market summary. A consumer is also given the option to purchase the similar inventory returned from the fare server database. As a result, a consumer is not only more informed about the market for which a purchase is being considered, but also has the additional option to purchase similar inventory. A consumer can also directly query the fare server database for flexible searching and for fast and efficient access to market information. The fare server database can be used for multiple client services.
摘要翻译：可搜索数据库中包含的定价物品的服务可通过互联网进行访问。如果多个项目可以满足消费者的请求，则服务通常对符合消费者请求的项目执行库存搜索。当清单存储在库存数据库中时，查询清单数据库以检索与消费者请求匹配的结果集。还可以提供一个单独的票价服务器数据库，其中包含最近已知可用的库存，位于Internet服务器本地，用于快速高效地访问，也可以提供用于执行与消费者请求相关的搜索。尽管最近已知可用的某些库存被过滤掉，然后被存储在票价服务器数据库中，并且在过时，不再可用或购买时清除了库存。可以在票价服务器数据库中执行基于消费者请求在库存数据库中执行的搜索不太具体的搜索，以检索有关类似库存的信息。除了将清单数据库中的结果集显示给消费者外，还可以向反映有关类似库存信息的消费者提供市场摘要。来自票价服务器数据库中搜索的信息形成了提供市场摘要的基础。消费者还可以选择购买从票价服务器数据库返回的类似库存。因此，消费者不仅更多地了解了正在考虑购买的市场，而且还有购买类似库存的额外选择。消费者还可以直接查询票价服务器数据库进行灵活搜索，并快速有效地访问市场信息。票务服务器数据库可用于多个客户端服务。

摘要： Described is a system and method that satisfies offers from customers with quotes from suppliers in a way that increases the likelihood of achieving an acceptable match. The system of the present invention is configured to receive from a customer an offer for a product. The system queries in parallel multiple suppliers for rate quotes on the desired product. Each of the suppliers is ranked according to the lowest rate quoted by each supplier. The supplier quoting the lowest rate is selected as the winner of the offer. The system may then evaluate any other rate quotes provided by the winning provider. The system may satisfy the customer's offer with the winning provider at a higher rate (if one was provided) than the winning rate quoted, up to the customer's offer (perhaps adjusted for a reasonable profit). In this way, even though the provider provides low rate quotes to win the offer, the provider may still realize a much higher rate for the goods or services by quoting additional, higher rate quotes as well.

摘要： A method and system are provided for presenting rates for travel services using dynamic pricing bands. The dynamic pricing bands represent approximate rates for travel services relative to available rates during or close to the proposed dates of travel, or at or near the proposed travel destination. Each dynamic pricing band is keyed to a particular color, intensity, pattern, sound, or other graphical and/or audio characteristic, thereby providing the consumer a sense of the seasonal, regional, day of week, or other variability of rates for travel services without having to compare actual numbers. The dynamic pricing bands are applied to an interactive presentation of rates for travel services to allow the consumer to explore possible rate variations for particular travel services in a manner that provides a birds-eye view, is intuitive and user-friendly.
摘要翻译：提供了一种方法和系统，用于使用动态定价频段呈现旅行服务的费率。动态定价频段代表旅行服务相对于建议旅行日期或附近的可用费率，或在拟建旅行目的地附近的近似费率。每个动态定价频段都以特定的颜色，强度，图案，声音或其他图形和/或音频特性为特征，从而为消费者提供季节性，区域性，星期几或旅行服务费用的其他变化性而无需比较实际数字。动态定价频段适用于旅行服务费率的交互式呈现，以允许消费者以提供鸟瞰图的方式探索特定旅行服务的可能速率变化，直观和用户友好。

摘要： The present invention relates in general to on-line transportation reservation processing and, in particular, to a system and method for identifying and purchasing travel packages on-line. In one embodiment, package components are retrieved by a package server in response to a query from a consumer. A best package component is identified from the retrieved package components. Then a listing of packages matching the best package component is depicted for the consumer with real-time prices to the consumer. In another embodiment of the present invention, real-time prices corresponding to travel packages are related to published fares for package components. The relationship is calculated to maximize the real-time price relative to the price for published fares for the travel components. In still another embodiment of the present invention, travel packages are cross-sold to consumers when they are seeking to purchase a travel component that may be included in a travel package.

摘要： Secure authentication and delayed transaction processing for booking management systems is provided. Third-party services partner with booking management systems to aggregate and list offerings of the third-party services in a digestible display on a one-stop platform. A booking management system can manage the authentication of payment card information on behalf of any number of such third-party services. The booking management system can maintain and process authentication information associated with traveler payment cards, and provide virtual payment information to the third-party services for delayed transactions. The third-party services may later initiate the delayed transactions using the virtual payment information, without being required to perform authentication processing on the traveler payment card information maintained by the booking management system.
