Embodiment
Although for its specific embodiment to present application has been description, these specific embodiments are only illustrative instead of restrictive.Instructions refer to the class of subscriber (preferably Knowledge Worker) of example, such as accountant and lawyer.These examples are only for illustrative purposes, and should not be considered to limit range of application of the present invention, as being confined to the worker of any given type or kind.Preferably, the present invention may be used for employing and is devoted to any tissue that (preferably using computing equipment) completes the user of various task.
With reference to Fig. 1, there is described herein a kind of general introduction for generating for computing equipment 14 user for the step in the method for the sequential type timetable 6 of given period.For illustrative purposes, the exemplary given period of use midweek 09:54-10:18 on September 15th, 2004 is described these steps by us, and in this embodiment, the computing equipment 14 in portable computer device runs OSX operating system.In this example, the timetable for user MaxMustermann will be generated.
First step is performed: given Time segments division is become a series of less sustained periods of time separately with predetermined lasting time at 1500 places.Form in conjunction with used (describing subsequently in this article) high pass filter is considered, shorter predetermined lasting time will cause the record of greater number usually, and on the contrary, longer predetermined lasting time will cause the record of lesser amt.Described predetermined lasting time should be selected based on the demand of user.In the present embodiment, the predetermined lasting time of 6 minutes is used.Therefore, the period 09:54-10:18 of example is divided into the sustained periods of time of a group less: 09:54-10:00,10:00-10:06,10:06-10:12 and 10:12-10:18.In this description, comprise the starting point of period, and do not comprise the terminal of period.For period 10:00-10:06, any event is all more than or equal to time value 10:00 and is less than 10:06.
In order to generate the timetable for 2004-9-1510:00-10:06, receive first group of user activity data record 72.This embodiment can comprise, and (describing subsequently in this article) enlivens window monitoring module 32, in order to generate, keep and provide this first group of user activity data record 72.Or, this first group of user activity data record 72 can from a third-party system acceptance to, such as received from a data server provider by network.This first group of user activity data record is associated (in this example, being associated with user MaxMustermann) with a user identifier.
Each user activity data record 64 comprises time representation and the descriptive elements by the action performed on computing equipment 14 during time representation of this user, and this time representation comprises duration value.This time representation can be in the form of the duration value of second.This time representation can comprise start time stamp.This duration value can be the form of the combination of start time stamp and end time stamp.
In the present embodiment, the descriptive elements of the action performed by this user is the description of Apply Names and the window title (describing subsequently in this article) used user.First group of user activity data record of example is illustrated in Fig. 3 a.
At 1504 places, high pass filter is applied to this first group of user activity data record 72, to form filtered second group of user activity data record 74.High pass filter is an electronic filter, and this electronic filter allows the row with high duration value to pass through, but does not allow the row had lower than the duration value of cut-off limit value (determinate) to pass through.In the present embodiment, this cut-off limit value refers to that duration value must be greater than 5 seconds.As a kind of alternative, this cut-off limit value can act on first group of user activity data record by duration value sort descending, and such as only allows the row of in this first group front 30% or front 5 row to pass through.
For example, the high pass filter of the present embodiment is applied to group user activity data record 72 of first shown in Fig. 3 a, to form the filtered second group of user activity data record 74 shown in Fig. 3 b.As an example of the operation of the high pass filter of the present embodiment, the first row (1 second, system preference-DELL2405FPW) is less than cut-off limit value-5 seconds, therefore there will not be in filtered second group of user activity data record 74.
It should be noted that second group of user activity data record 74 current total 283 seconds (although the real time spent on the computing device is 300 seconds) of user MaxMustermann.Application high pass filter advantage be reduce the amount of unessential and/or incoherent information, thus timetable is become can easily by the form of reader understanding.But, when certain timetable, such problem may be there is: the time charging to daily record for the given period is not equal to the total of duration value.The total of duration value is used to carry out in the example analyzed or calculate take over party, should when not affecting the validity of duration value of total, realize the needs unessential and/or incoherent information got rid of from their data acquisition.
In order to improve the problem of the duration value of the inconsistent total of above elaboration, following steps are performed: the 3rd group of user activity data record 76 creating expansion according to second group of user activity data record 74 at 1506 places, wherein, the duration value of one or more user activity data record 76 is greater than the duration value of the corresponding user activity data record in second group of user activity data record 74.The total of the duration value of the 3rd group of user activity data record 76 is less than or equal to the duration of described given period.In the present exemplary shown in Fig. 3 a to Fig. 3 c, the total of the duration value of the 3rd group of user activity data record 76 should be less than or equal to 300 seconds.Term " expansion " herein refers to that the duration value of the 3rd group of user data record 76 is greater than the corresponding duration value of the user activity data record in second group of user activity data record 74 on the duration.
For the step of the 3rd group of user activity data record 76 that the establishment at 1506 places is expanded, first the present embodiment makes the copy of second group of user activity data record 74.Next, the total of the duration value of second group of user activity data record saves as β.δ is the numerical difference between the duration value of the duration value of the total of first group of user activity data record and the total of second group of user activity data record.In example in Fig. 3 a to Fig. 3 c, δ equals 17 (300 subtract 283) second, and β equals 283.
When δ be on the occasion of, check that every bar user activity data record is to determine expanding value, and use this expanding value to expand duration value.The expanding value of the present embodiment uses function calculate.
Continue with reference to the example in Fig. 3 b, the expanding value for the first row is calculated as expanding value 2.6431 is added with value (44 seconds), thus creates the duration value 47 seconds (through what round up, see Fig. 3 c) of expansion.
The function that one alternative can be used wherein, Ψ is the quantity of the record in second group of user activity data record.If this function is applied to identical record, then from derive expanding value 4.25, thus create the duration value 48 seconds of expansion.
At 1508 places, generate a timetable for each six minute period, and these timetables are in chronological sequence sequentially arranged, thus generate the complete timetable for the given period.The sequential type timetable through arranging of example is provided in Fig. 6.This is an example representing sequential type timetable.This group user activity data record can be used in other environment, is such as saved and supplies follow-up analysis in a database.
Be described herein timetable generator unit 8, this timetable generator unit 8 is for being the sequential type timetable that computing equipment 14 user generates for the given period on the computer systems.With reference to Fig. 2, this timetable generator unit comprises storer 106, user activity data receiver module 54 and is operatively coupled to the processor device 60 of storer 106 and user activity data receiver module 54.
