Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A process, system and computer software are provided to facilitate at least one recommendation to one or more users and/or one or more applications using multidimensional data. In particular, a multidimensional space is defined, wherein each dimension is capable of providing variable information. At least one dimension corresponds to user profiles. The multidimensional space is filled with multidimensional data corresponding to dimensions of the multidimensional space. Then, information from the multidimensional space is retrieved. Further, the recommendation is generated based on the retrieved information. In addition, it is possible to generate a recommendation-specific query. This can be performed by generating the recommendation-specific query to access a multidimensional cube and retrieve data stored therein. Then, the recommendation can be issued based on the data retrieved from the multidimensional cube.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method, comprising: receiving, at one or more computer servers associated with a system for providing multidimensional information, one or more requests from an external server for one or more recommendations, wherein the multidimensional information data is associated with at least part of a multidimensional space having at least four dimensions, each dimension having a plurality of attributes characterizing the dimension, each attribute being capab…
