Recommendation System

Recommendation system is one of the most important features of Shopster.  Recommendations will be proposed to a user when he is viewing an offer and when he is searching for . There are many types of recommendations that our system will recommend. Some of them are (lets assume that the reader is viewing an offer about a laptop):

  1. Offers about related products (e.g  the system will recommend offers about laptop cases, a mouse, etc. )
  2. Offers about similar products (e.g the system will recommend other offers about laptops)
  3. Other offers from the current shop
  4. Offers liked by other friends (offers that friends of the user have rated highly)
