Description

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING CHATTING SERVICE AS WELL AS

CONTENTS BY USING NETWORK

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present mvention relates to a system and method for providing chatting

service and contents on communications network. More specially, it relates to the system

and method for providing chatting service and contents on communications network to be

able to be provided real-time information selectively while a user is engaged in chatting.

BACKGROUND ART

The means of transmitting information among members of enterprises or social

groups have changed in many ways with the development of information technology.

There are generally four types of information transmission. Information can be

transmitted: (1) between people communicating at one time and in one place; (2)

, between people communicating at the same time but in different places; (3) between

people sending and receiving information at different times but in the same place; and (4)

between people exchanging information both at different times and in different places.

Some means of information transmission that were not possible in the past have now become common because of the development of information technology and they are

replacing the existing means of communication. Electronic mail (E-mail) used universally

by members of the present society and the systematic society is divided into the means for

information transmission at the different time and in the same space or at the different time

and in the different space.

However, since it takes some time to send and receive E-mail, which is not the

suitable means of communication for people who want to exchange information in real

time.

The new means of exchanging information replacing the defect is the chatting

system on the communications network.

The following, Let's explain briefly about the method for using the chatting

system.

After the member is connected to the web server providing chatting-service based

on the communications network for performing communication by means of letters among

the members, and then the chatting system create 'chat room' where they can

communicate with others about special subjects.

When chat room is created, chatting is carried out in writing among the users

connected to the site who access that room. And such a chatting system can identify the user ID of members connected to the

same 'chat rooms' or the user ID of standing members disconnected to the special 'chat

room' and peruse basic information.

After the member has finished using a chat room, he/she disconnects from it by

either logging off the chat site or moving to a different Internet site

However, until now chatting systems have been designed only to provide real-time

communication in writing among members who want to participate in chatting.

Consequently, one drawback of chatting systems is that members who participate in

chatting are isolated from other information that is being rapidly exchanged in real time.

Another problem with current chatting systems is that it is hard to develop them for

future communications purposes because information is shared only on limited subjects

and among a small group of users, and such systems lack access to other real-time

information.

Still another problem with current chatting systems is that users cannot be certain

about the accuracy of information they acquire because participants in chatting cannot be

restricted to people who are knowledgeable about particular subjects.

Also, still another problem with current chatting systems is that communication

can be brief and irregular. Also, still another problem with current chatting systems is that information

transmitted in writing is not up-to-date, because current chatting systems are unable to

provide accurate information on rapidly changing conditions or make use of graphics to

supplement such information.

Also, still another problem with current chatting systems is that they do not allow

the users to exchange information simultaneously, but only in one-sided exchanges; this is

because chatting systems cannot be altered to meet the needs of the users, even though they

can provide real-time information via a chat window.

Also, still another problem with current chatting systems is that members using the

chatting system for study purposes or just out of interest cannot take part in dialogues or

information sharing for a long period because chatting systems require all members to have

common interests in order to continue participating in chat rooms.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in

more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but it is understood that the

present invention should not be limited to the following embodiments.

In explanations of the preferred embodiments of the present invention, terms will

be used that are defined as follows.

The chatting message is conversation information that a plurality of the users input

for providing the chatting service. The chatting message comprises CHATTING

CONTROL COMMAND and CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND.

The CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND means chatting message presented by

the text type of conversation involving a plurality of users. Such CHATTING CONTROL

COMMAND includes conversation information of special whisper function in addition to

ordinary text.

The CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND means chatting message that user

using chatting-service inputs in order to request contents. The CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND includes USER TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND and CONTENTS

TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND. USER TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND is to appoint chatting-participant in

order to share contents requested by special chatting-participant. For example, the USER

TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND is can be applied to the type of identification

symbol(/, %, = etc).

CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND is to appoint a kind or a type

of contents requested by special chattmg-participant. For example, the CONTENTS TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND is can be applied to numerals or letters.

Accordingly, when a special chatting-participant inputs chatting-message in the

form of 7G Samsung electronic' or '= Samsung electronic, the symbols 7' or '=' to may

be recognized as being used in the USER TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND..

FIG. la is a schematic illustration of system for providing chatting service and

contents on the communications network in accordance with one preferred embodiment of

the present invention.

Referring to FIG. la, the system for providing chatting service and contents

comprises a plurality of user terminals(110a, 110b, ... , -below, name 110), a central

server(120) and an information-providing server(130).

Each user terminal(llθ) is able to make use of any other terminal provided that the

terminals (110) are equipped with a communication device so as to be able to connect with the central server (120) on the communications network. The user's terminal (110) may be

comprised of a computer, a mobile communication terminal, or a PDA.

The central server(120) can include a processor(122) and storage device(124) and

provide chatting service to a plurality of users. Also, the central server(120) can provide

the real-time information to the user when the user requests the real-time information or

the real-time information coincides with a defined condition

The storage device (124) can be used for various purposes: as a member

information storage device for storing information about members; as an environment-

setting storage device for storing mformation list that the user wants to be provided with;

or as a real-time information storage device for storing data that changes in real time on the

web.

Of course, information provided through the present of invention will be general

information(for example, non real-time information, historical information.) in addition to

the real-time mformation, but the present special action describes to focus on the real-time

information provision aspect of its function.

Moreover, the central server (120) can be organized so that it is divided into a

chatting server to provide a chatting-service and a real-time information server to provide

real-time information according to its intended purpose. The following simply explains the present invention by using a schematic

illustration of system for providing chatting-service as well as contents by using the

communications network illustrated FIG. la.

For convenience of explanation, the user terminal (110) referred to will be

assumed to be the computer.

The user selects the chatting-service connection to a central server (120), using a

computer (110) that is connected to the communications network. At this time, depending

upon the user's needs, the user can connect to the previously created chat room or create

the new chat room.

The user then inputs the chatting message (for example, "Hello") in the chatting

message input area previously created for processing chatting. The chatting message that

the user inputs is displayed on at least one screen of the user computer (110), which is

connected to an operating processor (122) in the central server's computer (120).

At this time, when the user wants the real-time information(for example, a current,

a volume, an upper limit, a lower limit, a composite stock price index) while chatting and

the user can input the request information in the chatting message input area, and then the

corresponding real-time information is output automatically in the real-time information

providing area. And the real-time information provided through the communications network

according to the request of the user is information that central server(120) collects from a

plurality of the connected information provision servers(130) and then stores in the storage

device(124). The corresponding real-time information can includes stock information,

news, entertainment news, sports news, internet broadcasting and public broadcasting.

The following flow chart illustrates in detail the method for automatically

displaying requested real-time information in a predetermined area and while the user is

chatting.

FIG. lb is a schematic illustration of the system for providing chatting service and

the present invention.

Referring to FIG. lb, the system for providing chatting service and contents

includes a plurality of user terminals(llθ) coupled to the communications network , an

operator server(140), a storage device(150) and an information-provision server(130).

A schematic illustration in FIG. lb is similar to that in FIG. la, the following is a

detailed explanation of the components of the operator server (140), and the method for

transmitting data between user terminals (110), and the operator server (140).

Through its connection with the user terminals (110), the operator server (140) performs various roles, constituting a member information server (142), a chatting server

(144), a real-time information server (146), and a command server (148).

The member information server(142) is the means of managing the information

related to the members including the registration of a membership and member information

amendments by the corresponding user.

The chatting server(144) is the means of transmitting the corresponding

CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND to a plurality of user terminals(llθ) or to the

special user terminal when the CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND is received from the

plurality of user terminal(llθ)

The real-time information server(146) is the means of processing operations

related to the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND when the CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND information including the chatting message is received from the user

terminal(llθ)

The command server(148) is the means of receiving the information related to

transaction including buy or sell from the user terminal(llθ) and transmitting the

corresponding information to the information-provision server(130) performing the

corresponding transaction.

A plurality of the servers is also able to operate separately and also connect with each other when doing the same work.

The following, referring to FIG. lb, explains another preferred embodiment of the

present invention.

The chatting server(144) receives chatting message(for example, includes the

conversation information, the whisper information, the CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND information) transmitted from the user terminal(llθ). When the

corresponding information is input to update the member information, the corresponding

information is transmitted to the member mformation server(142). Also when the

corresponding information is the CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND including the

conversation information and the whisper information, the corresponding information is

transmitted to the chatting server(144). When the corresponding information is the

CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND information including a quotation inquiry, the

corresponding information is transmitted to the real-time information server(146). When

the corresponding information is the transaction information such as selling the stock,

buying the stock, the corresponding information is transmitted to the command server(148).

Among other possible types of the inputted information, when the corresponding

information is the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND information such as the

quotation inquiry, the real time information server(146) searches the corresponding contents related to the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND information in the storage

device(150), and transmits the corresponding information to the plurality of user

terminals(llθ). In this case, a plurality of the user terminals(llθ) receives contents and

outputs when necessary, display the corresponding information on the display unit of the

user terminal.

Also, when contents searched in the real-time information server(146) is

transmitted to the chatting server(144) and it is necessary to transmit the corresponding

contents to the user terminal, the chatting server(144) transmits the corresponding contents

to the corresponding user terminal

According to another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the present

invention can provide the system to provide the chatting service along with the real-time

information to be able to being divided and that is transmitted from the user terminal

The information transmitted to the manager server(140) from the user

terminal(llθ) can be used to be restricted by a dividing method.

That is to say, the information can be organized into types, such as the member

information for input or updating of the information of the user, the conversation

mformation for output to an unlimited number of users, the whisper information for output

to the special user, the real-time request information for request perusing the current quotation of the item that the user wants, or the transaction request mformation, such as

buying or selling stock.

So, when an individual code is assigned to each kind of information item and that

code is transmitted with the corresponding information, the information won't be

concentrated on a special server and tasks can be performed by connecting with the

corresponding servers independently.

For example, the member information server(142) manages the information with a

"01" code, the chatting server (144) manages the information with a "02" code, the real¬

time the information server (146) manages the information with a "03" code, and the

command server (148) manages the information with a "04" code.

When the user terminal (110) transmits the inputted information to the operator

server (140), the information related to the member information is transmitted with the

"01"code, the information related to the CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND including

the conversation information and the "whisper" information is transmitted with the "02"

code, the real-time information is transmitted with the "03" code, and the information

related to the transaction request is transmitted with the "04" code. Those codes are

transmitted to the related server, which divides information according to its codes.

large amounts of information are not concentrated at one server but can be divided among numerous servers for management purposes, therefore the system is able to provide

a more efficient chatting service.

FIG. 2 is a schematic illustration of system for providing chatting service and

contents on the communications network in accordance with another preferred

embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the system for providing chatting service and contents

includes a plurality of user terminals(200), a chatting server(210), a graphics server(220), a

price server(230) and a business information server(240).

Referring to FIG. la and FIG lb, an explanation of the same components of the

system will be omitted, but the system illustrated in FIG. 2 is very different in the

composition of the server.

That is, the composition of the server illustrated in FIG. la is explained as the

method of providing the chatting service and contents either using one central server (120

in FIG. 1) or a separate chatting server and real-time information server.

However, the system illustrated in FIG. 2 is composed of one chatting server (210)

and a plurality of real-time information servers (that is, the graphics server (220), the price

server (230), and the business information server (240)).

This information system is able to have separate servers for handling each kind of information independently, such as a transaction server, a stock option server in

addition to the graphics server(220), the price server (230), and the business mformation

server (240).

The chatting server (210) first collects real-time information transmitted from

the mformation provision server (130), and then assigns the information to the suitable

real-time information servers and transmits the information to the suitable real-time

information servers. In; other way, the division function can be processed for the

independent server, and then each real-time information server directly collects the

suitable information from the information provision server.

In accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the

chatting server (210) can be comprised of two servers. For example, the chatting server

(210) can be divided into a server processing only the chatting messages and a web server

processing web functions. The web server authenticates the user inputting a user name and

a password. When the authenticated user selects the chatting service and contents on the

communications network provided by the present invention, the web server performs the

function of downloading the program to the user's computer, or else transmits the

necessary commands for services whenever services are requested.

Here, the program for downloading software to a client includes the command that divides the screen into at least three areas, assigning the first area to the chatting server and

the second area to the real-time information server. The format of the client's monitor

screen is determined by the download command. The screen is divided into at least three

areas (the first area, the second area, and the third area). The first area is assigned to the

chatting server, the second area is assigned to the real-time information server, and the

third area is assigned to the transaction server.

Referring to FIG. 2, the following is a concrete description of the system for

providing the chatting service on the communications network in accordance with another

preferred embodiment of the present invention.

In accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention, there is

provided with the system for providing the chatting service and contents on the

communications network to be able to provide real-time information for the suitable user

by making use of the chatting server(210) and each real-time information-provision server.

The user connects to the chatting server(210) in order to use the chatting service

with a plurality of other users. And, the special user requests the special real-time

information while chatting with a plurality of users by means of the chatting server(210)

and then the special real-time information is provided for the corresponding user or the

corresponding user with another. When the corresponding user requests for chart about a special item including a

daily chart, a weekly chart, a monthly chart, the chatting server(210) transmit the

corresponding CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND to the graphic server(660) and the

chatting server(210) receives the chart from the graphic server(660) and transmits the

received chart to the suitable user.

In the same way, when the user requests the contents, the chatting server (210)

transmits the corresponding CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND to the price server

(230). And when the user request the information concerning business reports for special

businesses, the chatting server (210) transmits the corresponding CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND to the business information server (240).

Because information-provision functions are divided among various servers, the

chatting server (210) only needs to manage the chatting and CHATTING CONTROL

COMMAND, and it is therefore able to efficiently manage the chatting service and

contents even when a plurality of users are chatting simultaneously.

In accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present mvention, there is

provided with the system of chatting service and contents on the communications network

to be able to provide the real-time information for the suitable user by making use of the

chatting server(210) and each real-time information-provision server. The chatting server(210) receives the mformation provided by the real-time

information-provision server and transmits the information to the user. So the chatting

server(210) intervenes in the process of the real-time information provision indirectly.

In accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the

real-time information provision server receiving the special CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND from the chatting server(210) can provide the corresponding real-time

information to the user directly(that is, not via the chatting server(210))

Accordingly, when the user requests the daily chart, the chatting server(210)

transmits the corresponding CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND to the graphic

server(220), and the graphic server(220) search for the daily chart stored in the storage

device and directly transmits the searched daily chart to the user.

In accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention, there

are provided with the system for providing the chatting service and contents on the

communications network to be able to provide the real time information output only based

on users' needs by inspecting the real-time information transmitted from the chatting

server (210) to the user terminal.

When user inputs the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND while chatting, the

chatting server(210) transmits the corresponding CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND to the real-time information provision server corresponding to the CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND received from the user and receives corresponding mformation from the

corresponding real-time information provision server.

When the chatting server(210) transmits the real-time information received from

the real-time information-provision server to all user connected to the corresponding 'chat

room', the real-time information, when necessary, can be output on the screen of the user

terminal by operating the chatting program established the user terminal.

the real time information in accordance with one preferred embodiment of the present

invention.

FIG. 3 shows data flow between user computers and the central server(120) for the

synchronization of the chatting information and the real-time information.

Referring to FIG 3, the user is connected to the central server(120) by means of the

user computer connected to the communications network and transmits the connection

information including the user identification(ID) and the password through the

communications network in step 300.

The central server(120) searches for the storage device and inspects whether or not

the connection information received from the user computer through the step 300 is valid in the step 302.

when the connection information is valid, processes to the step 304, the connection

approval information is transmitted to the user computer through the communications

network.

Of course, when the connection information is not valid, the central server(120)

request inputting the correct connection information or request that the user registers for

the membership.

The user transmits the connection request information requesting connection to the

special 'chat room' in order to process chatting with a plurality of users to the central

server(120) by means of the user computer in step 306.

Moreover, in this case, the corresponding user is able to create their own new chat

room or can connect to a chat room created previously by another user.

The central server(120) searches for the chatting program(for example, chatting

applet) in the storage device in step 308. Thereinafter, in step 310, the central server(120)

transmits the chatting program searched through the step 308 to the user computer through

the communications network (110)

The user computer receives the chatting program transmitted through the step 310

in step 312. The received chatting program is established in the user computer and functions automatically (At this point, the chatting program can be established either

permanently or temporarily in the user's computer according to the situation.).

And, the chatting program established in the user computer receives the

initialization information for setting up a chat room via the central server (120) in step 314.

The user transmits the chatting message input in the chatting message input area of

the 'chat room' screen output in the user computer screen to the central server(120)

through the communications network in step 316.

The central server(120) inspects whether or not the chatting message received for

the step 316 is input and transmitted on a special object.

The chatting message received for step 318 is the CHATTING CONTROL

COMMAND to process chatting or the whisper or the CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND for requesting the real-time mformation.

Also, when the corresponding chatting message is the CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND for requesting the real-time information, the user can select one from the

group of only corresponding users transmitting corresponding chatting message , all user

connected to the same 'chat room' , only partial user in the same 'chat room'

The central server(120) transmits corresponding information(that is, the

CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND or the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND) to the suitable user according to the results of the inspection in step 318. After this, describe

in detail referring to FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 about the step 318 and step 320.

FIG. 4 is a flow chart illustrating the steps of providing chatting message in

accordance with still another preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, the user terminal performs the chatting program received from

the central server(120) in step 400.

In running the chat program downloaded in step 400, the user transmits connection

request information to the chatting server (either the operator server or a special kind of

real-time information server when the operator server is comprised of a group of servers),

which operates the chatting program (for example, a chatting applet) in step 402.

The central server transmits the initialization information to set up the

corresponding chat room based on the connection request information received by the

chatting server in step 402 and step 404. (When there is a plurality of servers, the central

server is the special chatting server and other servers are called "chatting servers.")

The user terminal inspects whether or not the user terminal is connected to the

chatting server based on the received initialization information.

When the user terminal is connected to the chatting server, processes to the step

408. When the user terminal is not connected to the chatting server, the step is ended or the central server can perform the chatting server connection request repeatedly processing to

the step 402. the user terminal displays a plurality of input areas (for example, a chatting

window and a "whisper" message area), an area for inputting the chatting messages, and

an area for outputting the conversation mformation corresponding to the CHATTING

CONTROL COMMAND.

Also, the contents corresponding to the real-time information list appointed

previously by the user is transmitted on the screen of the user terminal in real time.

Then, the user inputs the chatting message on the chatting message input area in

step 410 and the chatting server receives the conversation information input in step 412.

The step transmitting the chatting message input in the step 412 to the chatting

server includes the step to insert a message folder expressing character of the chatting

message,

Also, the step to insert the message folder to be able to be included in the step 412

can be used to grant the suitable code according to the character of the corresponding

chatting message.

The chatting server can differentiate between the conversation information and the

"whisper" information (that is, the conversation information provided only to the special

user) by means of the code information or determining whether the message folder was inserted in step 412.

We will now describe in more detail the conversation information used to process.

For example, When a particular user (for example, a user with the ID "estorm") inputs

the conversation information, "Hi," using the chat window area, the conversation

information is transmitted to the chatting server in the form,

"##CHATTING##estorm#$lHi#$12."

That is, the conversation information received by form of

'[##CHATTING##]#$l[contents]#$[letter color]' is output on all user screen connected to

the same 'chat room'.

Also, let's look into the conversation mformation for the whisper. For example,

when the special user(for example, user to have identification of estorm)inputs the whisper

of 'This is whisper' using whisper area and transmits the conversation information to the

user to have "hee'ID, the form received to the chatting server is '##TO##estorm#$lhee#$l

this is whisper#$12'

That is, the conversation information received by form of

'[##TO##][transmitter]#$l[recipient]#$l[contents]#$ [letter color]' is output on the user

screen appointed of recipient.

The use of the corresponding conversation information is classified by including the message folder divided about each conversation information.

The chatting server inspects whether or not the chatting message received through

the step 412 is the general conversation information or the whisper information in step 414.

When the corresponding chatting message is whisper, the chatting server searches

for user connected to the corresponding chat room and transmits the corresponding

conversation information to the searched the user terminal in step 418.

Also, when the corresponding chatting message is not the whisper information, the

chatting server searches for all user(it includes the user inputting the chatting message)

connected to the corresponding 'chat rooms' and transmits the corresponding conversation

information to a plurality of the searched user terminals .

The user terminal(that is, the user terminal can mean the chatting program

processed in the user terminal) outputs the conversation information received through the

step 418 or the step 416 on the screen of the user terminal in step 420.

The user terminal(that is, the chatting program) inspects whether or not the user

finishes the chatting in step 422.

The method to confirm whether or not user finishes chatting in the step 422 is able

to apply to the method that the corresponding user confirms the end request of the chatting

program(for example, chatting applet) or method to recognize the end of chatting when the user doesn't input the chatting message for definite time(for example, 30 minutes)

when the user doesn't finish chatting, the central server waits until the user inputs

the chatting message in the step 410.

Also, when the user finishes the chatting program in the inspection result of the

step 422, the step is ended.

FIG. 5 is a flow chart illustrating the synchronization of the chatting information

and the real time information in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the

present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, the user to want chatting connects the chatting server and

performs login to input user ID and Password in the step 500.

The chatting server confirms whether or not the input user ID and Password are

suitable contents for chatting.

when the input contents are suitable for chatting, processes to step 506. And when

the input contents are not suitable for chatting, the user processes and performs registration

of the membership in step 504.

The step 504 may include to display an alarm message 'it is not member' on the

screen or to move to the page of the registration of the membership.

The registered matter is stored in the storage device of a member information server, processes to the step 502 to input user ID and password again.

When the input information is suitable contents for chatting in the step of 506, the

chatting server confirms whether or not it changes environment setting information of the

real-time information list to want the user to be provided. The confirmation step for the

change of environment setting of the real-time information list may apply to icon or

hyperlink displayed on the screen.

When it doesn't change the environment setting in step 512, the basic real-time

information is displayed and simultaneously the chatting server is activated.

The basic real-time information includes the information to be provided generally

in case of a new user and the information to be the suitable environment setting changed

existing in case of the existing user.

Multiple frames composed of the real time information and the chatting screen

activated by the chatting server is displayed simultaneously on one screen.

The real-time information server confirms in the step 514 whether or not the new

mformation corresponding to the real-time information list establishing the user renews

existing information.

When the new information doesn't renew, the real-time information server

processes to the step 512 repeatedly till existing corresponding to mformation When the new information renews, the information in the real-time information

area is renewed in step 516. Also, when the user changes setting of the real-time

mformation list in step 508, the changed matter is stored in environment setting storage

device of the real-time information list. The real-time information corresponding to the

changed information list is displayed in information area in step 510 and activated the

chatting server simultaneously. The chatting server receives the chatting message from at

least one selected from the group of the users in step 518.

The chatting message that the chatting server receives through the step 518 may be

the chatting message(that is, the CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND) to chat or the

chatting message(that is, the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND) to request the real¬

time information.

And, the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND may be organized into various

types.

(1) the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND(that is, USER TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND-hereinafter referred to form '/Samsung electronic').

established providing the corresponding real-time information for only user requesting the

corresponding real-time information, the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND(that is,

USER TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND-hereinafter referred to form '=Samsung electronic') established providing the corresponding real-time information for all user

connected to corresponding 'chat room', the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND(that is,

USER TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND-hereinafter referred to form '%Samsung

electronic') established providing the corresponding real-time information for user except

user requesting the corresponding real-time information.

Also, when a special user(user to have identification of estorm) inputs and

transmits the chatting message of form 732680', the central server recognize the message

in order to request the real-time information about the special item based on the special

symbol 7' among the received chatting messages. And the central server searches the real-

time information about the item corresponding to '32680 '. and outputs in the chatting

message output area or in a special window or the real-time information provision area.

For example, When the real-time information request input thorough chat window

area is '/32680', form of the chatting message received to the chatting server is

'##CODE##estorm#32680#$2'. That is, it is received by the form of

' [##CODE##] [sender] $2[corresponding code of special item]#$2[letter color] '

The central server inspects in step 520 whether or not the chatting message

received through the step 518 is the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND including

USER TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND. When the chatting message is not the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND in

order to request the real-time information (that is, in case of CHATTING CONTROL

COMMAND to process chatting), the central server processes the chatting service in step

522, otherwise processes to step 524.

That is, the central server distinguishes the CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND

is composed of the form of the letters from CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND to

request the real-time information including the identification symbol(for example, /, =, %

etc).

The step 522 means the step to perform operating corresponding to the

CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND of the whisper or the general chatting.

The central server inspects in the step 524 whether or not the chatting message

received through the step 518 is CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND (that is, USER

TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND) to appoint object for providing real-time

information.

That is, the central server judges that the user requests the real-time information

without appointing to a object when the user named hong-gil-dong requests the real-time

information by form of '=Samsung electric'. When the user requests the real-time

information by form of '/Samsung electric' or '%Samsung electric', the central server judges that the user requests the real-time information with appointing to the object.

When the chatting message is the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND to

appoint to an object to inspection result of the step 524, the central server processes to step

526 and when not the central server processes to step 532.

The central server searches for real-time information corresponding to the item

requested by the user among the real-time information received from information

providing server(130) and stored in the storage device in the step 526.

When the user named hong-gil-dong requests the real-time information by form of

'/Samsung electric' or '% Samsung electric', the central server searches for the real-time

mformation about 'Samsung electric'(for example, the present price, a transaction quantity,

kosdaq 80, KOSPI200)

Of course, when the user appoints a kind of the corresponding real-time

information(that is, in case of inputting contents type command), the only appointed

information may be output on the user terminal.

That is, when the corresponding real-time information is the stock quotation,

information that the user wants is the daily chart and the identification code named daily

chart is appointed 'G', the user can receive the daily chart by means of inputting the

identification code-named 'G' among the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMANDS. And, the user unknown identification code can obtain the same result by means of

inputting an English term corresponding to 'daily chart' in English or inputting daily chart

by means of hangul.

Also, such method can be applied to the similar all area of essential stock

quotation without being limited to the daily chart.

In accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the

server can provide the corresponding information according to the input information that

the user classifies the mformation like 732680-1' or 732680-2' in chat window.

For example, the selected information is the current price information with the '-1',

the selected information is the transaction quantity with the '-2', and the selected

information is the daily chart with the '-3'. And then the server decreases the load because

the quantity of the information provided from the server is controlled.

Also, the user can peruse the real-time code information without inputting the

form of the special symbol, the special code and selection information by making use of

selection item included in the chat window.

The central server searches for the appointed target for user to provide the real¬

time information in the step 524. When the user named hong-gil-dong requests the real-time information by the

form of '/Samsung electric', the central server searches for communication information

(for example, connected IP address etc) of the user named hong-gil-dong in order to

provide the corresponding real-time information.

Also, when the user named hong-gil-dong requests the real-time information by

the form of '%Samsung electric', the central server searches for the communication

information (for example, connected IP address etc) of the user except hong-gil-dong(that

is, the user named sung-chun-hang, hyung-bu) to provide corresponding real-time

mformation.

Also, the target to provide the real-time information can be searched through the

synchronous information.

The synchronization information is the information to hold the provided real time

information requested from the user and a plurality of other users selected by the user.

For example, the form of the conversation information including synchronization

is received by the form of '[##SYNCH##][sender]#$l[receiver]#$l[synchronous contents]'.

The synchronization of contents can be presented 'share' in case of 'information share' and

'reject' in case of 'information rejection'.

The central server transmits the corresponding real-time information about the corresponding item searched through the step 526 to the target using the communication

information of the searched target.

Also, in case of appointing for user to the special information as explain for the

step 526, the central server can transmit only appointed information to the corresponding

user.

Referring to the step 524 again, when the chatting message received through the

step 518 is the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND without appointing to the target, the

central server processes to the step 532.

That is, it means that the user named hong-gil-dong requests the real-time

information by form '=samsung electric'.

user.

The central server searches for the real-time information(the corresponding

information in case of appointing the contents type) corresponding to item requested by the

user in the storage device in the step 532, the corresponding user searches for all user

connected to the 'chat room' that the corresponding connect., processing to the step 534

and transmits the corresponding real-time information to corresponding user through the 530.

The method to be provided the real-time information distinguishably through FIG.

5 can apply to all information(for example, a internet broadcasting, news, sports news

etc)to be able to be provided in the real-time information area .

That is, For example, let's explain the internet broadcasting output in the real time

information provision area and a plurality of internet broadcasting established a channel

form(for example, maekyung TV-CHI, WOW TV-CH2 etc)

In case of presenting 'wow TV in the real-time information provision area of the

current special user, the user can change the corresponding internet broadcasting channel

into form of '/CHI', '%CH1', '=CH1'.

The central server can present the same broadcasting to the other user or change

the channel by only corresponding user according to each identification symbol(that is, %,

/, = etc).

Also, such concept can apply to similarly about the output information about the

real-time news.

That is, when the real-time news about football in the current real-time

information provision area is provided and the special user want to peruse a major game

result to take the mound for Park-chan-ho, the user can be provided or can provide information to want for the other user by form of 7 Park-chan-ho+ game result ', '% Park-

chan-ho+ game result ', '= Park-chan-ho+ game result '

Also, when the user inputs internet broadcasting channel change request while

presentation of sports news, the user terminal can be presented internet broadcasting of the

corresponding channel instead of sports news.

The user can use form of a telelecture , a audiovisual lecture and teleconference

using function to hold in common the special information with at least one of user.

FIG. 6 is a flow chart illustrating the synchronization of the chatting information

present invention.

The FIG. 6 present a data flows among the user terminal, the central server and a

information-provision server.

Referring to FIG 6, the central server receives information(for example, a stock, a

present, a option)in real time from the information-providing server in step 600. The step

600 is processed in real time or in repeated whenever the new information is renewed in

the information-provision server.

The central server stores the real-time information received in the step 600 in the

storage device of the central server in step 602. Hereinafter, the central server receives the connection information including the

ID and password from the user terminal connected with the communications network in

step 604.

The central server inspects whether or not the connection information received in

the step 604 is valid in step 606 by means of the method for searching the storage device.

The storage device applying in the step 606 can be used to a plurality of storage

device group that comprises the member information storage device to store the member

information, a environment setting storage device of the real-time information list to store

information list that user want to be provided, a real-time information storage device to

store the real-time data to change in real time on web.

When the connection information is confirmed as the valid connection information

through the step 606, the central server transmits the connection approval information

through the communications network to the user terminal in step 608.

A plurality of chatting area including the real-time information corresponding to

the appointed information item that the user wants to be provided for through step 608 is

displayed on the screen of the user terminal.

The central server receives selection information for the special 'chat room'

among a plurality of chat areas(for example, a kosdaq 'chat room', a Samsung electric 'chat room' etc) displayed on the screen of the user terminal in step 610.

The central server can transmit the connection approval information about the

connection request to the chatting area based on the received through the step 610, and

simultaneously adding the real-time information that the user wants to be provided in the

step 614 using the communications network.

An information form to be provided to the user terminal using the communications

network in the step 612 and the step 614 is displayed on the screen of the user terminal as

FIG 9a. Hereinafter, explain in detail referring to FIG. 9a.

Hereinafter, the user is able to chat with a plurality of users using the chatting area

displayed on the screen.

The central server receives the chatting message to be transmitted and input from a

plurality of user terminals in step 616.

The central server stores the chatting message received in the step 616, and

confirms whether or not the chatting message include the CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND information about the special item.

Also, the central server can further include the step to abstract the real-time

information about the corresponding item by means of searching for the storage device

based on inspection result in step 618 or to receive the corresponding information requesting the real-time information of the corresponding item to the information-provision

server.

The CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND information inspection of the

! corresponding item in the step 618 explains in detail referring to FIG. 7.

Hereinafter, in step 620 the central server transmits the chatting message received

in the step 616 and the real-time mformation abstracted for inspection of the step 618 to a

plurality of the users(for example, a plurality of the users connecting in the same chat area).

Also, after inspecting the storage device repeatedly, confirming renewal of the real

time mformation, when the real time information exists, the center server transmits the real

time information to the user terminal while chatting. In step 626, the user decides whether

transaction about a special item information is or not based on the real-time information for

step 622 and step 624. When the user input the transaction information on the same screen

in case of deciding transaction, the transaction request information of the user is

transmitted to the transaction server in real time. That is, the transaction request

mformation input for the user transmits to the web site processing the stock transaction by

the transaction server. So screen displayed the user terminal is including link for the web

site.

A special user can process the transaction in real time using the step 626 without calling at the corresponding company homepage for the transaction of special item or

requesting transaction by telephone or calling at the corresponding company.

The transaction server receiving transaction request mformation for the step 626

process the corresponding transaction, thereinafter transmits the performance result to the

corresponding user terminal for the communications network in step 628.

communications network in accordance with another preferred embodiment of the present

invention.

Referring to FIG. 7, the user terminal processes the chatting program received

from the chatting server in step 700.

When the chatting program(for example, the chatting applet etc)is processed for

the step 700, the user terminal transmits to the chatting server(it may be the chatting

server constituted one or the special server in case of constituting to a plurality of real-time

information-provision server except the chatting server)the connection request information

for the chatting program itself operation.

The chatting server(it may be a special server in case of comprising a plurality of

real-time information-provision server but the following called the chatting server for

convenience of explanation) transmits a initialization information for corresponding 'chat rooms' connection based on chatting server connection request transmitted for step 702.

The user terminal inspects whether it connect to the chatting server or not in step

706. by using the receiving initialization information

When the user terminal is connected the chatting server for inspection result of the

step 706, it processes to step 708 and when not the step is ended.

Also, when the user terminal is not connected the chatting server for inspection

result of the step 706, the user terminal can perform repeatedly the step to transmit

connection request to the chatting server, processing to the step 700 again.

The chatting program established the user terminal is initialized the 'chat rooms'

information using the initialization information received for the step 704 and the step 706

in the step 708.

When the 'chat room' mformation is initialized for the step 708, the user terminal

display area is displayed at least one of chatting message input area(for example, the

whisper input area, the chatting message input area)for the user to be able to input chatting

message and a chatting message display area

The chatting program is input the chatting message from the user in step 710 and

transmits to the chatting server the corresponding chatting message for the

communications network, processing to step 712. The step transmitting to the chatting server the chatting message for the step 712

may include the step inserting each independent message folder according to use of the

corresponding chatting message.

That is, when the corresponding chatting message includes the USER TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND or the CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND,

the chatting server can insert the message folder to be appointed independently

corresponding to the corresponding command.

In case of inserting the described message folder, the chatting server receives the

corresponding chatting message and then the chatting server may be performed work

requested by the corresponding chatting message not performing a special chatting

message change work.

The chatting server inspects in the step 714 whether the chatting message received

for the step 712 is the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND or not.

When the chatting message is not the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND

received for the step 712 for the inspection result of the step 714, the chatting server

performs the chatting service processing to the step 716 and then processes to the step 710.

Of course, when the chatting message is not the CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND but the CHATTING CONTROL COMMAND for the inspection result of the step 714, the chatting server transmits the corresponding chatting message to a plurality of

user and then the corresponding chatting message is displayed on the corresponding user

terminal display screen.

Also, when the corresponding chatting message is not the CONTENTS

CONTROL COMMAND but the whisper for the inspection result of the step 714, the

chatting server transmit the corresponding chatting message to only suitable user., the more

concrete explanation refers to FIG.4

Also, in case of the chatting message received for the step 712 is the CONTENTS

CONTROL COMMAND for inspection result of the step 714, the chatting server

processes to step 718.

The chatting server inspects in the step 718 whether the chatting message (that is,

CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND)received for the step 712 is the CONTENTS TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND or not.

The CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND to appoint a kind of a

real-time information for the user to want to be provided can apply to appoint method to

appoint constituting a special identification symbol every kind of each the real-time

mformation.

That is, the CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND is to apply to 'G' called daily chart and 'P' called the current price. In case of the chatting server receiving

the chatting message called '/P 05930' from the user, the chatting server can recognize

automatically that the user want to T(that is, the current price information)' of the item

code 05930(that is Samsung electric).

Also, the CONTENT TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND may apply to a

plurality of identification code at a time. That is, in case of the user inputting the

CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND by form of '/P+G 05930', the user can

be provided along with the current price information and the daily chart of the Samsung

electric simultaneously.

The CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND can apply to the current

price information called '-1' and the daily chart called '-3' in accordance with another

preferred embodiment of the present invention

For example, when the chatting server receives the chatting message called

705930-1' from the user, the chatting server can recognize that the user want to '-l(that is,

the current price information)' of the item code 05930(that is, Samsung electric).

When the chatting server receives the CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT

COMMAND from the user by the inspection result of the step 718, the chatting server

selects a suitable real-time information-provision server to perform the corresponding CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND processing to the step 720 and then

process to step 722.when the chatting server doesn't receive the CONTENTS TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND from the user by the inspection result of the step 718, the

chatting server process directly to the step 722 recognizing that the user request synthetic

information(that is, all information to be able to be provided).

The chatting server transmits the chatting message(that is, the CONTENTS TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND) received for the step 712 to the real-time information-

provision server selected for the step 718 or the step 720 in the step 722.

The real-time information-provision server receives the chatting message(that is,

CONTENTS TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND)transmitted for the step 722 and

searches the real-time information corresponding to the CONTENTS TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND processing to the step 726.

The real-time information-provision server transmits to the chatting server the

real-time information searched for the step 726 in the step 728.

The flow chart illustrated FIG. 7 illustrates as the step 724 and the step 728

perform in the one real-time information-provision server but, when the user requests

many the real-time information simultaneously for the CONTENTS TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND as explanation previously, the step 724 and the step 728 is performed in many the real-time server simultaneously.

The chatting server receives the real-time information to be transmitted for the step

728 in step 730 and inspects whether the user to transmit the corresponding real-time

information for the step 730 is appointed in the chatting message or not.

Let's omit explanation about above-mentioned method to appoint the user holding

the corresponding information in common for the chatting.

When the chatting message received from the user includes the USER TYPE

APPOINTMENT COMMAND (that is, the CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND

appointing target) for the inspection result of step 732, the chatting server process to step

734 and when not, the chatting server processes to step 738.

The chatting server searches a target appointing to the user using the CONTENTS

CONTROL COMMAND in the step 734.

The method to search for target to transmit the corresponding real-time

information may use the identification code to be comprised in the CONTENTS

CONTROL COMMAND as explain previously in the step 734.

In step 736, the chatting server transmits the real-time information received for the

step 730 to the user searched for the step 734 and then process to the step 738.

Referring to the step 732 again, when the corresponding CONTENTS CONTROL COMMAND is provided to all user to be connected the same 'chat room' not appointing a

special target, the chatting server searches for all user to be connected the same 'chat

room' processing to the step 738 and then transmits the corresponding real-time

information processing to the step 736 and processes to step 740.

The chatting program receives the real-time information and then the CONTENTS

CONTROL COMMAND transmitted for the step 736 in the step 740.

In step 742 the chatting program inspects whether the corresponding real-time

information need to display at the user terminal or not using the CONTENTS CONTROL

COMMAND (that is, USER TYPE APPOINTMENT COMMAND) received for the step

740

When the corresponding real-time information needs to display for the user

terminal for the inspection result of the step 742, the corresponding real-time information

is displayed on the user terminal display screen and then process to step 746.

Also, when the corresponding real-time information doesn't need to display for the

user terminal to the inspection result of the step 742, the chatting server processes to the

step 746 directly.

The method that the chatting program established in the user terminal inspects

whether the real-time information transmitted from the chatting server needs to display make use of message folder inserted based on identification code to be comprised in the
