Patent ID: 7725509

Claim:
A system for matching information comprising: a first sub-system programmed to store at least one profile, wherein the said at least one profile contains predetermined attributes and requirements and predetermined introduction information; a second sub-system programmed to store at least one profile, wherein the said at least one profile contains predetermined attributes and requirements and predetermined introduction information; an introduction processor programmed to receive data relating to the said introduction information from the said first sub-system, wherein the introduction processor is programmed to compare the said introduction information from the said first sub-system with introduction information received from the said second sub-system and to register a compatible profile introduction between the said first sub-system and the said second sub-system when the said introduction information of the said first sub-system or the said second sub-system is satisfied by the introduction information of the other of the said first sub-system or the said second sub-system; and a match processor comprised within the said first sub-system, the said match processor being programmed to receive information relating to requirements of the said second sub-system when the said introduction processor registers a compatible profile introduction between the said first sub-system and the said second sub-system, the said match processor being further programmed to register a match between the said first sub-system and the said second sub-system when the said attributes of the said first sub-system match the said requirements of the said second sub-system; and wherein the said first sub-system does not need to receive information relating to the said attributes of the said second sub-system, in order to register a match with the said second sub-system.
