Abstract: Techniques for facilitating inter-entity communications are disclosed. Members of different entities may use different entity-specific parameters to reference similar topics. A master parameter is a term that is used by an inter-entity communication engine to reference a particular topic. The inter-entity communication engine obtains a request for content items associated with a particular master parameter. The inter-entity communication engine determines that a first entity-specific parameter, associated with a first entity, corresponds to the particular master parameter. Further, the inter-entity communication engine determines that a second entity-specific parameter, associated with a second entity, corresponds to the particular master parameter.

Abstract: Techniques for managing intra-affiliation and inter-affiliation postings are described. Disclosed are techniques for receiving a posting from an account, the account being associated with an affiliation and an account parameter, transmitting one or more affiliation-specific parameters associated with the affiliation to the account, receiving a posting parameter from the account, the posting parameter being selected from one or more affiliation-specific parameters, determining a level of relevancy of the posting to a receiving account based on the posting parameter, the account parameter, and a receiving account parameter, the receiving account being associated with the receiving account parameter, generating an order of postings based on the level of relevancy, and transmitting the order of postings to the receiving account. One or more postings may be displayed at the receiving account based on the order.
