Secure Distributed Data
We are in desperate needs of information to keep up with the changing world. In the meanwhile, we are enjoying the service provided by advanced technology as well as human labor. We offer service for others and served by them. Computing technology is making the service more and more available.
The Problem
Here is the story. We use search engine everyday, such as Baidu and Google. We query for information and get the ranked web pages. We query like Barack Obama, best selling books this month and which is the most popular programming language? Sometimes we have some queries, but cannot get satisfied results from the traditional search engine, such as get me a cab, fix my computer, or I need a house cleaner right now. From these queries, what we want to get is specific service or some people can providing specific service. In reality, people with skills like taxi driver, computer fixing and house cleaning just around us. What if we connect the service requesters and qualified service providers in a completely new social and decentralized network and make it searchable?
Unpopular Longtail Needs
Airbnb provides us hotels, Uber provides us cars, Yelp provides us restaurants. However, some special-interest and small-group services need being satisfied. Besides eating, clothing, housing and travelling, we have more long-tailed needs to be satisfied. The long tail theory pushes us shifting away from a focus on a relative small number of ”hits” at the head of the demand curve and toward a huge number of niches in the tail.
Unsocialized Professional Skills
Proliferation of ubiquitous mobile devices makes location based services prevalent. Mobile users are able to volunteer as providers of specific services and in the meanwhile to search these services. For example, drivers may be interested in tracking available nearby users who are willing to help with motor repair or are willing to provide travel directions or first aid. Besides, this is kind of offline skill social rather than virtual online social.
Ununified Searchable Service
With the diffusion of mobile users, it is necessary to provide scalable means of enabling such users to connect with other nearby users so that they can help each other with specific services. There is no apps we can use to collect and organizes mobile users with their domain skills with user-friendly interface for users to conveniently search the skilled and qualified people around to meet their needs.
We design and implement HelPal, a general location based service engine for mobile crowds to provide instant and intelligent service. HelPal is further designed to connect the world-wide available human service to form an elastic and on-demand service pool.

High Techs
Instant Intelligent Search
We propose mobile spatial objects INDEXING, distant-supervision knowledge entity MATCHING and real-time context-aware RECOMMENDATION techniques to fulfill efficiency, effectiveness and exploration in our Service Engine with succinct interfaces.
Powerful Service Engine
The backend engine is based on our proposed unified architecture of big data management system, biggy, a set of coherent softewares/systems that manage big data pluggablly, automatically and intelligently with specific functionalities, where specific functionalities refer to input, storage, compute, control and output.
Secure Decentralized Data
By enhancing blockchain technology, we start with a big data distributed data storage system and internet with blockchain characteristics, i.e., decentralized control, immutability and the transfer of digital assets.
HelPal connects mobile users by skills to form a new social network, and we make the micro-service searchable by intelligent service engine and powerful data processing systems. What's more, we secure users' private data by revolutionary blockchain based storage.
Demo Show
HelPal is a revolutionary practice and we just make one more step to make the world better. We build Socialized Service Search Ecosystem to be next generation of tricorn company over current Facebook, Uber and Google.

Before HelPal envisioned a brand new socialized service search ecosystem, it was a simple app to connect users with professional skills – a side project of Dr Wu's PhD research. But buried within this consumer-facing concept was something much more valuable: a world-beating socialized service search ecosystem. Read More.
