摘要

Computer based method for recommending a unit from recommendations made by other users. Accordingly the recommendation plan uses a number of users and a number of items each with a profile with at least one evaluation. By determining a subset of users from a large number of users with similar preferences it is possible to make a selection of users for provision of selection to individual users in the same sub-set. The invention also relates to a corresponding system, data processing program and a computer program product.
