Architecture for enabling the definition of candidates of a collaboration session, and the manner or modality of communication that identifies collaboration opportunities, including meeting time, place, and modalities, for example. The modality of communication can include an online meeting, a telephone conference call, or a face-to-face meeting. Meta information of the candidates is aggregated from multiple sources to identify collaboration opportunities and compute an opportunity window for the collaboration session. The meta information can include online presence, availability information, a calendar schedule, geographic location, time zone, expertise, and profile related information. Candidates for the collaboration session can be tagged based on common interest, team membership, or project information. In this way, a predictive model for availability is built for the collaboration session candidates. The candidates are notified of the opportunity window for scheduling of the collaboration session. |
