    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method and system for caching customized information in a network server system. SOLUTION: A rule for deciding whether at least one customized block of data should be generated or fetched is defined. Then, a customizable template is generated. This customizable template includes the rule reference and offset specifying a place where the customized block is inserted into the customizable template. Then, the customized block is inserted into the place specified by the offset of the customizable template. The customized block, the customizable template, and/or the rule can be preliminarily stored in a cache 106 of this computer processing system. Also, the customized block can be dynamically generated.

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To facilitate the retrieval of an object while using a cache by sending back an object requested from another node among plural nodes by using any one of plural protocols. SOLUTION: A client requests the object stored in a server (190). The request of the object is received by a network (192). The request of the object is routed to one cache node by a network dispatcher (194). It is determined whether the cache node to receive the request of the object from the network dispatcher is the first owner of the object or not (196). When it is the first owner, the cache node serves the request of the client (197). Then, the first owner retrieves the requested object by communicating with the server (198).

    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To allow a user to programmatically construct presentation material that is subjected to authoring by applying plural presentation documents to one set of presentation rules. SOLUTION: A presentation device 1A1 such as a TV presents a presentation sequence 1A5 that is generated by a programmatic presentation generator 1A4. The generator 1A4 can generate the sequence 1A5 by using data pushed from a data source 1A2 and also can extract data from a data source 1A3 whenever necessary. Further, the generator 1A4 enables the sequence 1A5 such as a TV program that is corrected through presentation regulations (rule) and an external event when it is dynamically generated or once it is generated.

    Abstract: A method for providing customized information in a computer processing syste m includes the step of defining at least one rule for one of creating and retrieving at least one customized block of data. At least one customizable template is created which includes at lea st one reference to the at least one rule and at least one offset that specifies at least one positi on at which the at least one customized block is inserted into the at least one customizable template. Th e at least one customized block is inserted into the at least one customizable template at the at leas t one position specified by the at least one offset. The customized block, the customizable template, and/or the rule may be pre-stored in a cache of the computer processing system. The customized bloc k may also be dynamically created.
