In one embodiment, a method for operating a local virtual world proxy is provided. A virtual world view is received corresponding to a virtual world client. Information about resources available to the virtual world client is obtained. Virtual representations of one or more resources available to a virtual world client are fetched. Then the virtual representations are injected into the virtual world view. The virtual world view is then forwarded to the virtual world client for display to a user of the virtual world client.

In one embodiment, data relating to usage patterns of the user is stored, wherein the data includes information as to items which were used and the context in which they were used. The data is then clustered into clusters of data points. Then a centroid is determined for each of the clusters. A cluster similar to a current context of the user is selected by comparing a data point representing the current context of the user to one or more of the centroids. For each of one or more items, a threshold based on values for a plurality of the centroids with respect to the corresponding item, wherein a threshold is used to compare with centroid value of an item in a selected cluster to determine whether to recommend the item.

In one embodiment, data relating to usage patterns of the user is stored, wherein the data includes information as to items which were used and the context in which they were used. A correlation table is constructed. Correlation values between each item and each context are then stored in then correlation table, wherein the correlations are used to recommend one or more of the items.

A definition of a set of context variables to be considered is received, wherein the context variables represent categories of situations in which the computer system can be. A definition of a set of activities to be considered is also received, wherein the activities represent activities that can be performed using the computer system. For each context variable to be considered, a definition of a set of states to be considered is received, wherein the states represent situations in which the computer system can be. For each context variable to be considered, a specification of first probability distributions for each corresponding state is received. For each context variable to be considered, for each activity to be considered, a specification of second probability distributions to represent the likelihood of the activity being performed in the corresponding context is received. Usage data is generated using the first second probability distributions.

Data relating to usage patterns of the user is stored, wherein the data includes an application portion having information as to items which were used and a context portion having information as to the context in which the items were used. The data is clustered into clusters of data points and centroid are computed, wherein the centroid includes an application portion and a context portion. Clusters similar to a current context of the user are selected by comparing a data point representing the current context of the user to the context portions of one or more of the centroids. For each of one or more items, a expectation value that the user wishes to use the corresponding item is computed, based on the application portions of the selected similar clusters, wherein the expectation values are used to recommend one or more of the items.

Techniques for identifying potential communication uses of various systems are disclosed. Identifying potential communication uses of a computing system can improve the manner in which the computing system is used by allowing more intelligent decisions and better choices to be made regarding its communication use. By way of example, communication applications (or tasks or services) that are likely (or more likely) to be used by a person in a particular situation can be identified as potential communication use of a particular device. Such potential uses can, for example, be made more assessable (or more readily available) and/or effectively recommended (or automatically initiated), thereby allowing a person to more conveniently use the device. By way of example, identifying communication applications or tasks that are likely to be used by a person in a particular situation for various reasons (e.g., preferences and/or habits of a person in a particular situation) as potential communication use of a system (e.g., computing and/or communication device) allows making the communications applications, tasks, or services more assessable and/or effectively recommending them for use in a particular situation.

摘要:
Given a situation, an interest in a first object of interest can be determined. In the given situation, interest in a first object of interest is initially unknown and interest in a second object of interest is known. Data is obtained. The obtained data can, for example, include documents from the Internet or other forms of information from a network and/or database. The number of joint occurrences of the first object of interest and the second object of interest in the data is determined. Based on this number, at least one correlation value is determined. Based on the at least one correlation value, an interest value is determined. The interest value indicates the interest in the first object of interest in the given situation.
