Abstract: A method and apparatus for performing communication distribution based on calendar information is provided. Communication distribution based on calendar information may include receiving a scheduling request for an account associated with a calendar, the scheduling request indicating event information corresponding to an event, storing a calendar entry in the calendar, the calendar entry including the event information, receiving an event notification indicating the event, identifying the account associated with the calendar based on the event notification and the stored event information, generating a message indicating the event, and sending the message to the account on a condition that the account is associated with a permission indicator indicating a permission to receive messages associated with the event.

Abstract: Delivering notifications to a user can include obtaining, by one or more server computers, notification information indicating that a notification is to be delivered to a device associated with the user at a future time that is subsequent to a current time and behavior information associated with the user; ranking, by the one or more server computers, a plurality of notification delivery strategies that the user will be available to receive the notification from the device associated with the user at the future time based in part on behavior information associated with the user; and sending the notification for display to the device associated with the user based on a highest ranked delivery strategy from the plurality of delivery strategies.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining, at one or more computers, information regarding a notification to be delivered to a device associated with a user at a first time, obtaining, at the one or more computers, information associated with the user, and determining, at the one or more computers, a probability that the user will be available at the first time based on the information associated with the user. If the probability that the user will be available at the first time is below a threshold, the method includes delivering the notification to the device associated with the user at a second time prior to the first time.

Abstract: Provided are methods and systems for delivering smart reminders to a user based on data associated with a calendar event of the user. The methods and systems utilize data contained in a user's calendar to deliver relevant event location identification information to the user at appropriate times in advance of a scheduled start time for the event. A reminder notification is delivered to a device of the user when it is determined that the user is approaching the specified event location (e.g., based on location data associated with the user device) and the scheduled start time for the event is within a threshold period of time. The notification includes one or more images of a particular venue specified for the event, contact information for the venue, as well as various other data associated with the particular venue and/or corresponding event.

Abstract: A method and system for defining a route between a first user and a second user having respective mobile devices. A communication is established between a backend server (13) and a plurality of mobile devices (11) belonging to a respective user of a cellular phone network (12).

Abstract: Method for a cheating-proof user experience based loyalty program and a computer program product for assigning loyalty points to users.

Abstract: The invention refers to a method for encouraging a user to comply with his/her medication regimen, comprising the steps of: registering a group of parameters related to a medication intake of said user, which parameters include a time parameter and a user identifier; sending said group of parameters related to a medication intake of the user to a server (40); computing a time difference between said time parameter received and a time parameter associated to said user identifier previously recorded in the server; assigning said user with a pre-established number of points depending on the value of said time difference; and providing said user with information regarding his/her points obtained for the medication intake, including a summary of their medication compliance status using appealing personal awareness. providing symbolic rewards (e.g.
