The process request includes a rule for discovering each of the agent nodes in the community and a rule for accessing local information stored on each of the agent nodes. The local information represents activities conducted by end users at each of the agent nodes. The process request also includes a set of rules for classifying data comprising the local information and developing a cumulative profile resulting from the classifying. The cumulative profile includes generic information that is descriptive of collective activities conducted by the end users and is absent information that personally identifies any of the end users.
