Patent number: 10970663Abstract: Disclosed embodiments provide a computer-implemented technique for filtering electronic communication based on the current task of a user. The current task of a user is derived using a workflow segmentation model. A workflow segmentation model is derived based on user-defined activities, heuristics, location data, environmental data, and/or other input data. Prior to delivery, electronic communication directed to the user is analyzed based on sender, subject, message content, time of day, and/or other criteria to determine if the message should be presented to the user immediately, or deferred, based on the relevance of the message to the current task of the user.Type: GrantFiled: July 26, 2019Date of Patent: April 6, 2021Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Lori L. Adington, Mary A. Curran, Dana L. Price, Eduardo Miguel Breijo Baullosa, Jonathan Dunne

Patent number: 10664328Abstract: In an approach to creating an electronic calendar entry, one or more computer processors receive a selection of a location in a map application from a first device associated with a first user. In response to receiving a selection of a location in a map application from the first device associated with the first user, the one or more computer processors create a first calendar entry in the electronic calendar application associated with the first user. The one or more computer processors input information corresponding to the selected location in the first calendar entry. The one or more computer processors store the first calendar entry.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2018Date of Patent: May 26, 2020Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Eduardo M.

Patent number: 10567257Abstract: A method for bandwidth-sensitive content sharing can begin with the establishment of a content sharing session between two or more end-user devices by a bandwidth-sensitive content sharing system. At least one of the two or more end-user devices can be a mobile device having a network constraint and/or a data usage constraint. A bandwidth limitation can be determined for the mobile device from network connection data and user data. The bandwidth limitation can indicate a restriction to content sections of a content item the mobile device is to receive during the content sharing session. The content item shared with the mobile device can be filtered based upon a priority value for each content section of the content item. A content section can be an identifiable and discrete encapsulation of data within the content item. The filtered content item can satisfy the bandwidth limitation of the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2018Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Lori L. Adington, James P. Brancato, Joel Duquene, Brian S. Utesch

Publication number: 20190272473Abstract: A plurality of recipes containing a plurality of produce items can be assigned a preparation day. The plurality of produce items comprised in the plurality of recipes are partitioned into an interactive grocery list. Each item of the plurality of produce items comprised in the interactive grocery list is assigned a calculated reference identifier. Calculated reference identifiers are transferred to a user device and recommend the highest probability of produce ripeness with consideration to the assigned preparation day.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2018Publication date: September 5, 2019Inventors: Lori L.
