This application claims the priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201010195933.2, entitled “USER INFORMATION PUSHING METHOD, USER INFORMATION PRESENTATION METHOD, SYSTEM, SERVER AND CLIENT”, filed on Jun. 7, 2010 with State Intellectual Property Office of PRC, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The application relates to the field of communication technology, and particularly to a user information pushing method, a user information presentation method, a system, a server and a client.
When a user utilizes a mobile terminal to implement communication and customized services, operators will charge the user. With emergence of new services as well as issue of various charging types and service packages, and especially with the development of 3G communication, it is difficult for the user to know the billing of the mobile terminal in real time during the use of the mobile terminal. Taking a usual account balance query as an example, when a general mobile phone user needs to query the balance, the user may dial a number specially preset by the operator to make a voice query, or may make a query by sending a query short message to the number specially preset by the operator and receiving a reply short message.

Referring to
Step 101, arranging, in a server, a plurality of service interfaces to be invoked by a client, in which the service interfaces include a real-time information pushing interface.
Usually, a mobile terminal used by a user is installed with a client for implementing communication between the mobile terminal and the server. When the user uses the client in the mobile terminal to acquire user information in real time, firstly a mobile phone number and a password are required for logging-on, so as to establish a connection with the server.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the real-time information pushing interface is adapted to perform instant communication with the server when the user are using a service, and to obtain information related to the current service, so that the user can view the information in real time on the presentation interface of the mobile terminal.
The real-time information pushing interface may includes: a network element real-time access message interface, for acquiring user service information including service status information, service charging information, information on charging network element and session identification information in real time; a charging reservation real-time message interface, for acquiring charging reservation information in real time; and an account changing real-time message interface, for acquiring information on the change of user service balance in real time.
Step 102, receiving, by a server, a real-time information acquisition instruction sent from a client through a real-time information pushing interface, when the client uses a target service and automatically invokes a real-time information pushing interface.
The target service used by the client may be: voice service, short message service, on-line service, and the like. Once the user starts to use a service of a certain kind, the client in the mobile terminal will invoke the network element real-time access message interface to obtain service status information, service charging information, information on charging network element and session identification information pushed by the server. Since the service is likely to continue for a period of time, for example, the voice conversation is likely to continue for several minutes, and some information of the service is likely to change with time, the client may be preset to invoke the network element real-time access message interface every 2 to 3 seconds; after the session identification information of the current service is obtained by invoking the network real-time access information interface, the charging reservation information pushed by the server in real time can be obtained by invoking the charging reservation real-time message interface according to the session identification information; and when the service is ended, accordingly the charging of the service is completed, and at this time, the account changing real-time message interface is invoked for acquiring the information on the change of the user service balance, so that the user can view the service balance information before and after the end of the service in real time.
Step 103, acquiring real-time information of the target service according to a user number contained in the real-time information acquisition instruction.
Step 104, pushing the real-time information to the client, and ending the current process.
In the above embodiment, if the real-time information pushing interface is a network element real-time access message interface, the server receives through the network element real-time access information interface a user service information acquisition instruction sent from the client, captures service messages of the target service from a shared memory according to the user number contained in the user service information acquisition instruction so as to acquire the user service information including service status information, service charging information, information on charging network element and session identification information from the service messages, and pushes the user service information to the client through a network service interface.
Furthermore, if the real-time information pushing interface is a charging reservation real-time message interface, the server receives through the charging reservation real-time message interface a user charging reservation information acquisition instruction sent from the client, acquires charging reservation information of the target service from a database in the memory through a balance management center, according to session identification information contained in the user charging reservation information acquisition instruction, and pushes the charging reservation information to the client through a network service interface.
If the real-time information pushing interface is an account changing real-time message interface, when the client ends the use of the target service, the serve receives through the account changing real-time message interface a user service balance changing information acquisition instruction, acquires information on change of user service balance corresponding to a user number contained in the user service balance changing information acquisition instruction from a database in the memory through a balance management center according to the user number, and pushes the information on change of user service balance to the client through a network service interface, in which the information on change of user service balance includes service balance information before the using of the target service and service balance information after the using of the target service.

Step 201, arranging, in the server, a plurality of service interfaces to be invoked by a client, in which the service interfaces include a query information pushing interface.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the query information pushing interface is adapted to communicate with the server when a user needs to acquire account related information, so as to obtain the query information pushed by the server, therefore the user can view the query information through a presentation interface of a mobile terminal. Usually, the mobile terminal used by the user is installed with a client in order to implement communication between the mobile terminal and the server.
The query information pushing interface may includes: a user subscription changing message interface for querying information on change of user subscription such as home location of user, user status information, user credit information and so on; or a user bill message interface for acquiring bill information such as a charging list and details of the charging account.
Step 202, receiving, by the server, through the query information pushing interface, a query information acquisition instruction sent from the client, when the client invokes the query information pushing interface.
Step 203, acquiring corresponding query information according to a user number contained in the query information acquisition instruction.
Step 204, pushing the query information to the client, and ending the current process.
In the above embodiment, if the query information pushing interface is a user subscription changing message interface, the server receives through the user subscription changing message interface a user subscription changing information acquisition instruction sent from the client, acquires information on change of user subscription corresponding to a user number contained in the user subscription changing information acquisition instruction from a database in a memory through an information management platform according to the user number, and pushes the information on change of user subscription to the client through a network service interface.
If the query information pushing interface is a user bill message interface, the server receives a user bill information acquisition instruction through the user bill message interface, acquires bill information corresponding to a user number contained in the user bill information acquisition instruction through a cloud computing platform for bill processing of a bill center according to the user number, and pushes the bill information to the client through a SOCKET interface.
