METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR PRESENCE-BASED FILTERING OF NOTIFICATIONS OF NEWLY-RECEIVED DATA

摘要

A system for transmitting, to a mobile device (102), a notification of newly-received data associated with a user of the mobile device, responsive to presence-based filtering, includes a notification agent (202), a presence agent (205), a notification service (204), and a communications agent (208). The notification agent receives an identification of data received for a user of an information repository, such as a personal information manager (106). The presence agent provides presence-related data associated with the user. The notification service, in communication with the notification agent and with the presence agent, applies a filter to presence-related data and generates a message including the identification of the received data, responsive to the application of the filter to the received presence-related data. The communications agent transmits the generated message to a mobile device associated with the user.
