Abstract: A computer system processes electronic communications. A density and centrality of a group of users engaged in electronic communications is determined based on an analysis of a social network graph indicating connections of the users of the group. The electronic communications are analyzed and an affinity of the electronic communications to a constructive goal of a user of the group is determined based on a frequency of electronic communications pertaining to the constructive goal and the determined density and centrality. The electronic communications are modified to advance progress of the constructive goal in response to the affinity satisfying a threshold. Embodiments of the present invention further include a method and program product for processing electronic communications in substantially the same manner described above.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for transitioning between different realities. The distance of the objects from a reference point in the first and second reality environments is determined. For example, the distance of the object's location in the first reality environment from a reference point (e.g., camera system) as well as the distance of the object's location in the second reality environment from the reference point is determined. A determination is made as to whether the likelihood of a transition shock event (e.g., motion sickness) occurring as a user transitions between the first and second reality environments exceeds a threshold value. In response to the likelihood of the transition shock event occurring exceeding the threshold value, the distance of the object from the reference point in the first and/or second reality environments is modified so as to prevent users from experiencing transition shocks when transitioning between realities.
