  • Real-time end-user aware interactive search utilizing layered approach
    Patent number: 7720843
    Abstract: A system and method for facilitating real-time end-user awareness in results to a query to optimize and refine a computerized search utilizing an interactive result layer (IRL) and result operational layer (ROL) are disclosed. The present invention establishes a loopback feedback between encapsulated end-user interactions, which are facilitated through an interactive result layer (IRL), and the results from a query, passed through a result operational layer (ROL). An end-user selects interactions to particular results by way of a prompt within the IRL. The end-user interactions are provided to and processed in the ROL in real-time without the end-user having to re-query the system to reflect said interaction or combination of interactions. A real-time automatic result feeder aides in delivering new results to end-user when results are deleted. Subsequent queries can reflect past end-user interactions.
