The implementation method is according to this procedure: first, people classified to 6 groups based on their nutrition style getting from the Islamic traditional medicine and some previous papers in the modern medicine. Then, a data network was made from people's relationships. Afterwards, a model has been presented based on the analysis of that network. To evaluate this model, the proposed method is applied on a university's self-service restaurant system.
