Abstract
System, method and device of discretionary content publishing and discovery in a network environment via the use of a secure global identifier service, where content provider can decide how its content may be published and discovered online, and choose where, which and how to host its content and content discovery service.
Claims12
An Internet discretionary information publishing and search system that consists of at least one or any combination of the following service component units:
- a. the Registration and Search Service unit (“RSS”)—a content publishing and search service component unit that interacts directly with content providers;
- each RSS defines and registers one or more templates for the publishing of content and makes such templates available for use by content providers to register, publish their contents and manage subsequent search and discovery of the published content;
- content search users can search for content by searching for registered information of the templates, including information about the content that are self-defined by the content provider;
- each RSS is registered with a Search Service Registry unit with one or multiple unique identifiers via a global identifier service, which unique identifiers contain public key information to be used in the secured exchanges between the RSS and its users;
- each RSS can run a local identifier service and register identifiers for every template registered by the RSS and every content published using such registered templates;
- b. the Integrated Search Service unit(“ISS”)—an aggregated search service component formed by aggregating at least two individual search service units (e.g. RSS, ISS) in any combination, to provide a more comprehensive search service;
- each ISS is registered with the Search Service Registry with one or multiple unique identifiers, via the use of a global identifier service, which identifiers contain public key information for secured exchanges among the ISS and its users;
- all ISSs can also run local identifier services for the registration of identifiers for each aggregated RSS and ISS.
- c. the Search Service Registry unit (“SSR”)—SSR provides a registration service for RSSs and ISSs and at the same time provides an integrated search service for all RSSs and ISSs it has registered;
- the SSR is identified by unique identifiers via the use of a global identifier service, which unique identifiers contain public key information used for the secured exchanges among SSR, RSSs and ISSs as well as their respective users;
- SSR can also run its local identifier service to register identifiers for RSSs and ISSs.
