System for analyzing user activity in a collaborative environment

摘要

A system is described for analyzing user activity in a collaborative environment. The system may include a memory, an interface, and a processor. The memory may store a plurality of data items. Each data item may be related to at least one other data item. The processor may receive a request to alert the user when an action is performed on a selected data item. The processor may also receive a relation threshold identifying at least one other data item related to the selected data item. The processor may detect the action being performed on the data item identified by the relation threshold. The processor may transform data describing the action into an alert. The alert may include the data describing the action, the data item, and a description of the relationship between the data items. The processor may provide the alert to the user via the device.

1. A computer-implemented method for excluding a user's activity information from statistics related to user activity in a collaborative environment, the method comprising:
in a processor of a service provider server, the processor coupled to a data store and a network interface: providing via the network interface, one or more user interfaces to a plurality of user computer systems for user interactions with the service provider server in the collaborative environment; receiving, by the processor via the one or more user interfaces provided to the plurality of user computer systems, a request to exclude reporting of an activity of a user of the plurality of users in the collaborative environment; associating, by the processor in the data store, an indication of an exclusion with a user data item describing the user of the plurality of users, based on the request to exclude the reporting of the activity of the user, wherein a plurality of user data items in the data store describe the plurality of users in the collaborative environment; receiving via the network interface, user input that is generated by user activity in the one or more user interfaces provided to the plurality of user computer systems; identifying users who engage in the user activity in the one or more user interfaces provided to the plurality of user computer systems; determining whether user data items describing the identified users who engage in the user activity in the one or more user interfaces have been associated with an indication of exclusion of the user activity in the one or more user interfaces; adding a row to a log table in the data store and storing a user activity data item for each user input received via the network interface and generated by user activity in the one or more user interfaces in instances when the user activity has not been associated with an indication of an exclusion for a respective user; and preventing storing of a user activity data item in the log table for user input received via the network interface and generated by user activity in the one or more user interfaces in instances when the user activity has been associated with an indication of exclusion for the respective user; receiving a request for a reporting data item to include a plurality of user activities performed by the plurality of users in the one or more user interfaces provided to the plurality of user computer systems, the plurality of user activities generating the user input received via the network interface; retrieving, by the processor from the data store, a plurality of user activity data items that describe the plurality of user activities performed by the plurality of users in the one or more use interfaces provided to the plurality of user computer systems; identifying for each of the retrieved plurality of user activity data items, which particular user performed a respective user activity in the one or more user interfaces provided to the plurality of user computer systems and in instances when a user data item describing the particular identified user is associated with an indication of exclusion, removing from the retrieved plurality of user activity data items user activity data items of the particular identified user; transforming, by the processor, a plurality of remaining user activity data items and a corresponding plurality of user data items into the requested reporting data item; and providing, by the processor, the requested reporting data item to a user in the collaborative environment.
