Abstract: The method of event-driven health and wellness decision support considers an individual's medical records and lifestyle; applies healthcare best practices; and recommends next steps. Medical and lifestyle records are input, converted to events and inserted in timestamp order in an event queue. Events are processed in queued order by handlers, and results recorded in a data structure called a “person state”. Some handlers create additional events and insert them in the event queue in timestamp order. Those events are in turn processed in timestamp order. Other handlers create no events, allowing processing of all queued events to eventually complete. After events representing actual occurrences are processed, events representing postulated activities are created, queued, and processed until a specific patient state representing a health and wellness goal obtains. This allows several activity paths to be compared to determine the best path to an optimal health goal. Next steps are recommended as output.
Abstract: A method and computer system for tracking, analyzing and reporting on electronic mail and allows a user to locate and associate electronic mail events to the original electronic mail from within a host electronic mail communication program. The product allows each user to associate electronic mail and associated electronic mail events with an individual electronic mail address. Each electronic mail address is then associated with the user. When the host electronic mail communication program displays an electronic mail, the product identifies the electronic mail address of the sender and displays any previous electronic mail subjects and associated electronic mail events. In addition the product provides methods to allow the user to analyze the pattern of associated electronic mail events and classify the pattern as different types of electronic mail recipient behavior in reports. Further the product provides a recent response report which displays electronic mail events in real-time.
