Abstract: When searching for accommodations, although one or more accommodations may satisfy factors or criteria set by a traveler (e.g., a user), the traveler may desire to locate an accommodation that is also in a convenient area. A convenient area may be an area in which a concentration of points of interest (POIs) is high. For example, a traveler on a leisure trip may desire to stay at a hotel that is in an area with a relatively high concentration of restaurants or tourist attractions, or as a traveler on a business trip may desire to stay at a hotel near an airport or convention hall. Thus, some example embodiments provide accommodation search results to one or more users based on a concentration of points of interest. The accommodation search results may be provided graphically, textually, or any suitable combination thereof.

Abstract: A system, a computer-readable storage medium including instructions, and a computer-implemented method to group trip itineraries is described. A plurality of trip itineraries is obtained by a client computer system from a server, wherein the plurality of trip itineraries is obtained in response to a search query received from a user of the client computer system. A dominating trip itinerary and a dominated trip itinerary from the plurality of trip itineraries is identified by the client computer system, wherein the dominating trip itinerary satisfies a predetermined domination criterion with respect to the dominated trip itinerary. A user interface to be displayed on the client computer system is generated by the client computer system, wherein the user interface is generated to present details of the dominating trip itinerary to the exclusion of details of the dominated trip itinerary.

Abstract: A system, a computer-readable storage medium including instructions, and a computer-implemented method for filtering trip itineraries is described. Trip itineraries are received. A position of a first time slider on a time axis of a time graph displayed in a user interface of a computer system is determined, wherein the first time slider is configured to be moved across the time axis of the time graph. A first set of the trip itineraries is identified based on the position of the first time slider on the time axis. Graphical representations of the first set of the trip itineraries are displayed on the time graph, wherein a graphical representation of a trip itinerary indicates a departure time and duration of the trip itinerary.
