Alert notification as a service

Digital revolution offers instant information on millions of web sites. In plenty of available data, customers are interested to find information in context of appearance of an object or a certain property as soon as it is published by a given site. Some sites offer push notification to customers if they are subscribed to such a service. However, not all sites implement push service, and in these cases customers frequently visit the web site and wait for an occurrence, such as sport result, rank list, etc. In this paper we present how an intelligent software agent can realise this task instead of users that are manually visiting the web site and send information as if the web site has implemented a push service. This novel idea is good for both customers and web site providers. Customers would subscribe to get the information as soon as it is available, and web site providers would like to enable push service without changes in the web site software, that might be very costly. Provision of this kind of notification can be realised via sophisticated mobile phone alerts, text messages, twitter or Facebook notification, or even supported by new operating systems like Maveriks OS or web sites such as Google notifications. In this paper we present details and benefits of a such system.
