Abstract: A system predicts the intent of a user and proactively offers to perform a query that satisfies that intent. Upon the user's acceptance of the offer, the system begins a search for related information. The system examines such factors as search terms typed or spoken by said user, historical attributes of said user, historical journey attributes of said user, current journey attributes of said user, user location, user movement, current time, user profile, user calendar, user information stored on, or associated with, a device within the user's possession. The system then makes a prediction of any of the user's intent, query category, and issue category. Based upon the results of the system's prediction, a query that is relevant to the user's intent and/or issue categories is presented and, upon the user's command, the results of the search are returned to the user.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a nexus between a user's presence within or proximate to a brick and mortar store outside of an explicit user transaction within the store, that is based solely upon the user's presence within the store, and not on any affirmative actions taken by the user by maintaining location awareness of the user and by communicating this awareness in real time, as the user moves from location to location, to brick and mortar stores at or near to the user's location. In this way, embodiments of the invention link the user's virtual presence, for example via the Internet, and all of the user-related information that is available for data mining, for example using big data techniques, to the user's physical presence at a physical location to create an enhanced user experience within the physical location in real time.
