A system and method for managing requests for integrating a handheld customer interface with a point of sale (POS) system are disclosed. In one aspect, an integrated customer interface module is configured to communicate with a wireless mobile computing device of a customer and a POS system associated with a restaurant chain. The integrated customer interface module is configured to receive a request from the customer to check in to one of the chain's restaurants, automatically generate an order in the POS system, receive information regarding the customer from the remote database, and send at least a portion of the information regarding the customer to the POS system so as to be used as identification in the ordering and purchasing at the restaurant.

System and method for a wireless mobile device interface integrated with a restaurant point of sale system and with a cloud-accessible data center for querying a database of customer information

Techniques are presented for determining a corpus of content portions, each content portion associated with at least one element. A first set of feature values is determined for each content portion. Clusters of content portions are then determined based on the first set of feature values. The features values are optionally associated with topics. Structural links between the elements are determined based on a second set of feature values. A layout of the element is then determined based on the clusters and the structural links. Optionally the N-most dominant topics are determined and also used to inform the layout of the elements in a display.
