Abstract: Techniques for message forwarding based on a relationship between a sender and a recipient are described herein. In one embodiment, a process includes, but is not limited to, in response to a message from a sender over a network, identifying a list of candidate recipients to handle the message based on roles of the candidate recipients within an organization in view of the sender, and forwarding the message to a recipient selected from the list of the candidate recipient to enable the selected recipient to handle the message. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

Abstract: Techniques for action prediction based on interactive history and context between a sender and a recipient are described herein. In one embodiment, a process includes, but is not limited to, in response to a message to be received by a recipient from a sender over a network, determining one or more previous transactions associated with the sender and the recipient, the one or more previous transactions being recorded during course of operations performed within an entity associated with the recipient, and generating a list of one or more action candidates based on the determined one or more previous transactions, wherein the one or more action candidates are optional actions recommended to the recipient, in addition to one or more actions required to be taken in response to the message. Key word identification out of voice applications as well as guided actions has also been applied to generate action prediction candidates interactive history links Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

In one embodiment, a process includes, but is not limited to, in response to a message to be received by a recipient from a sender over a network, determining one or more previous transactions associated with the sender and the recipient, the one or more previous transactions being recorded during course of operations performed within an entity associated with the recipient, and generating a list of one or more candidates of interactive history links based on the determined one or more previous transactions, such that the recipient is able to select one or more of the candidates of interactive history links to be performed for responding the message of the sender. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

Abstract: A user interface for a computer system provides an icon view of a workspace in which the appearance of individual icons therein reflect real time changes in the status of the objects they represent. When a computer is instructed to display an icon view of a workspace, the computer may determine the status of the objects within the workspace to determined, for example, whether they are locked. When rendering a display representing the workspace, the computer may use icons that represent not only the object's type but also its status within the network. Other embodiments provide for display of further object attributes in response to user command, for example, during a ‘mouse over’ in which the operator places a pointer over an icon.
