Therefore, it can be specifically the related information of a plurality of first object with the same characteristic tag of the related information to aggregate. The related information of a plurality of first objects with the same characteristic tag is aggregate, which is convenient for the user to search the object belonging to the same object type, and improves the information searching efficiency. wherein, in order to facilitate description, the plurality of first object satisfy be named as the target characteristic label of the characteristic label of the same requirement. … as another alternative mode, matching with the first object of the third object matching also can be object image matching object name, and/or object key information matching object and so on, object key information can be extracted from the object description information of the keyword and so on … For example, the association requirement comprises the same feature tag, can determine a plurality of target satisfy tag of the same requirement of the first object, at least one third object matched with the plurality of first object can be at least one third object with the target feature tag; Or it can be at least one third object with the characteristic label which is matched with the target characteristic label satisfy Wherein, the matching requirement can be, for example, the similarity is greater than a certain threshold value or meets the preset matching requirement and so on. Of course, matching with the first object of the third object matching also can be object image matching, object name matching, and/or object key information matching object and so on … For example, according to the object provider different grouping condition, packet can prompt message the related information of the object provider, such as name, level, sale, and according to the object type different for packet, packet can prompt message related information of the object type, such as name and so on).
Although CHENG substantially teaches the claimed invention, CHENG does not explicitly indicate wherein, when the at least one object name comprises a plurality of object names, the querying comprises:
grouping the plurality of object names into groups; and
using the plurality of threads to perform, in parallel, query operations on the object names in the one or more groups assigned to each thread to determine at least one object corresponding to each of the plurality of object names.
Kim teaches the limitations by stating
wherein, when the at least one object name comprises a plurality of object names, the querying comprises:
grouping the plurality of object names into groups; and
using the plurality of threads to perform, in parallel, query operations on the object names in the one or more groups assigned to each thread to determine at least one object corresponding to each of the plurality of object names (Kim [0073] – [0084] e.g. [0073] The groups 1-4 402, 404, 406, 408 may be formed either explicitly (having a group identifier or other attribute indicating a group) or implicitly (having the maximum distance value without directly identifying a defined group). The groups 1-4 402, 404, 406, 408 may be formed using a data structure or variable such as a matrix, a data map, an array or array of arrays, linked variables, an STL vector, or others. Such variables may store a reference to the data object, such as a pointer or name Such variables may further store a maximum distance value for the data objects, or may associate the data object references together into groups (e.g. an array of groups having group identifiers, each group having an array of data object references), or may store both (e.g. a group identifier and a maximum distance value). … [0078] …. In this way, the data map has both the maximum distance calculations and the groupings of the data objects (the data objects can be retrieved in a group by searching on the distance value rather than the object ID value). Example 8-Execution on an Object Group [0079] FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a process 500 for executing on data objects in parallel from an object group. The process 500 may be performed as part of step 206 in process 200 as shown in FIG. 2. [0080] An object group is selected at 502. Generally, the object group is selected from a set of object groups and is an object group that has not yet been selected (or processed). As described herein, the object group may be a distance-based group where the data objects in the group have the same maximum distance from a root data object. Because the objects in the group have the same maximum distance based on dependencies from a root object, none of the objects in the group are interdependent (or, put another way, the objects are independent of each other), thus allowing the objects to be processed in parallel. [0082] …. For example, a separate thread may be needed for each object in the object group, …. [0083] As the resources are prepared at 504, the resources may be allocated to run in parallel 505. The parallel resources may be allocated to separate data objects; for example, each allocated thread may receive a separate data object for processing in parallel. …. Thus, the executing on each data object may be parallelized and may begin as early as the resources are available to further improve the execution performance time. [0084] Processing or executing on data objects at 506a-n may include performing actions or calculations on the data objects, such as revalidating, recompiling, updating, transferring to other data storage (e.g. backup), calculating results from queries or analyses, or other such actions).
Therefore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at the time of the effective filing date of the invention, in view of the teachings of CHENG and Kim, to improve the information search efficiency or information conversion and so on as the technical problem to be solved in the art (CHENG page 1).
Although CHENG and Kim combination substantially teaches the claimed invention, they do not explicitly indicate assigning one or more of the groups to each of a plurality of threads.
HU teaches the limitations by stating
assigning one or more of the groups to each of a plurality of threads; and
using the plurality of threads to perform, in parallel, query operations on the object names in the one or more groups assigned to each thread to determine at least one object corresponding to each of the plurality of object names (HU page 9 e.g. [page 9] In one embodiment, when the computer device uses the processing flow of parallel addition to add resource objects in each object group to the corresponding area, it can determine the parallel addition method based on the parallel processing mechanism provided by the operating system of the computer device. specific way. Among them, if the operating system in the computer device is the Linux operating system, the Linux operating system provides two parallel processing mechanisms: a multi-process parallel mechanism and a multi-thread parallel mechanism. …; the multi-thread parallel mechanism refers to: When the device adds any object group to the corresponding area, it executes by creating a corresponding thread, and the threads that respectively execute adding resource objects in different object groups to the corresponding area belong to the same process. When a computer device uses a multi-process parallel mechanism as a parallel processing mechanism, it needs to create multiple independent processes to perform the process of adding resource objects grouped by each object. When using a multi-thread parallel mechanism as a parallel processing mechanism, You only need to create one process, and multiple threads generated by the created process will execute the process of adding resource objects grouped by each object. Data cannot be shared between processes. Between threads belonging to the same process data can be shared. Therefore, when the computer device chooses a parallel processing mechanism, it can be determined by combining the importance of data sharing in the parallel process and the ability of the processing resources of the computer device to create threads and processes.).
Therefore, it would have been obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art at the time of the effective filing date of the invention, in view of the teachings of CHENG, Kim and HU, to improve the information search efficiency or information conversion and so on as the technical problem to be solved in the art (CHENG page 1).
