Method and system for prioritization of task items

摘要

The present invention relates to a method and a system for improving the prioritization of task items of a user within task management systems as for instance in electronic calendar systems or workflow systems. The current invention suggests a computerized prioritization technology which evaluates a specification of an importance function associated with a task item and dynamically determines an importance value of the task item as a function of one or a multitude of context attributes. As the importance functions are reevaluated continuously based on the current values of the context attributes it is achieved that the priority values of task items are adapted dynamically and may change during their lifetime.
