- FIG. 1 illustrates one implementation of a person-centric network 100 in accordance with claimed subject matter.
- a person-centric network in accordance with claimed subject matter may comprise and/or be represented as a "hub and spoke" network with a person at the hub of the network, and people and/or entities they know on the other end of the spokes.
- a contact database user 102 is located in the center of network 100 as a hub 104 of network 100.
- a plurality of spokes 106 connect user 102 to a plurality of contacts 108.
- User 102 and/or contacts 108 may comprise persons and/or entities such as business entities, for example.
- any one of spokes 106 may be associated with one or more "emotience” or “emotient” ⁇ attributes, emotient characteristics and/or emotient properties 110.
- an emotient property 110 associated with a spoke 106 may comprise a property value list including, in a non-limiting manner, such characteristics as familiarity, affection, respect and/or respect level, esteem and/or esteem level, status and/or status difference, acting role, among others. In other words, such properties may reflect how a user feels about a personal contact.
- an emotient property may or may not have a value; the value in turn may be a property, or even another property value list.
- an emotient property comprising a familiarity property may have an integer value that describes how well user 102 knows one of contacts 108. For example, an integer value of "0" may represent user 102 having no familiarity with a particular contact 108, while an integer value of "10” may represent user 102 having intimate knowledge of a particular contact 108.
- values associated with an emotient property such as a familiarity property may comprise another property value list such as "stranger", “acquaintance", “close”, and “intimate” among other possibilities.
- an emotient property 110 may be associated with derived properties where derived properties may comprise properties derived from a base or fundamental property value list comprising a property 110. Accordingly, properties that appear in a base property value list may be considered to be fundamental properties while derived properties may be created from fundamental properties by a rule, set of rules, algorithm, program or the like. In various implementations, derived properties may be created dynamically as needed, may be stored back into a base property value list, and/or may be placed in one or more auxiliary property value lists.
- a derived property of affection could be determined from fundamental emotient properties such as familiarity, acting role, etc.
- an example rule for creating a derived property of affection may be to assume affection for the acting role of 'wife 1 .
- rules and algorithms for generating derived properties may combine a number of factors, some of which may be externally influenced.
- An example of an externally influencing factor may comprise a "number_of_contacts" factor.
- Such a factor may comprise an emotient property taking an integer value that an algorithm increments each time contact is made with a particular person.
- an r-smart contacts database in accordance with some implementations of claimed subject matter may then derive a value for an affection, or similarly-named, property based on a respect level and a number of contacts provided by the integer value.
- one or more emotient properties may be determined based on common properties, and/or common property values among a plurality of contacts.
- the term "ring” may be used to describe the grouping of contacts and the phrase “ring properties” may be used to describe emotient properties associated with a group of contacts. Similar meanings of the term “ring” may be found, for example, in the area of abstract algebra, and in colloquial terms such as "crime ring". Claimed subject matter is not limited in this regard however, and, thus, a grouping of contacts in accordance with claimed subject matter may be described as a "ring", a "group”, a “domain”, to name just a few examples. Thus, within this disclosure, use of the term “ring” should not be understood as describing a literal geometric shape, even though such shapes may be employed in network diagrams, etc., that may be used to illustrate example implementations of claimed subject matter.
- Figure 2 illustrates an example implementation of a person-centric network 200 in accordance with claimed subject matter.
- an example "acting role” derived property has generated a plurality of rings 202, 204, 206, 208 and 210, carrying the values of "important", “family”, “management”, “team member”, and “friend”, respectively.
- the common property and/or property value associated with the one or more subsets of contacts may be used to label or name the rings derived from those one or more subsets of contacts.
- network 200 is illustrated without spokes because contacts within each ring 202-210 share a common emotient property and/or property value with respect to a user of network 200.
- all contacts of ring 202 share a common property value, in this example, the value of "important", with respect to a user of network 200.
- spokes are not shown explicitly in network 200 because they may be implied from the definition of the term ring as provided herein.
- no hubs associated with a user of network 200 have been illustrated in Figure 2 because they may be implied as well.
- Figure 3 illustrates an example, in accordance with claimed subject matter, of a textual rendering 300 of network 200. While textual rendering 300 may not illustrate contact groupings having particular geometric shapes such as rings, it conveys the same information as conveyed in Figure 2.
- r-smart information associated with a person-centric network may be created, edited, and/or viewed by separate programs, or a combined program in order to create editor/viewer functions.
- a program or collection of programs may be called an "emotience manager" although claimed subject matter is not limited in this regard.
- Such a program or programs may render r-smart information in graphical form as shown in Figures 1 and 2, in textual form as shown in Figure 3, or in a number of other forms, where that graphical form may comprise at least a portion of a graphical user interface (GUI) capable of being displayed on a display device.
- GUI graphical user interface
- the particular form used may be a user preference, or even a function, for example, of a display device employed by a user.
- a textual form as shown in Figure 3 may comprise an optimal graphical format.
- a user interface network editor and/or viewer may, in accordance with claimed subject matter, be accessed (e.g., for reading and/or editing) by software applications that are compatible with person-centric networks.
- a user may select (e.g., click on) a display form to cause one or more actions to occur. For example, a user clicking on a category label may cause an underlying list to collapse or expand. Further, a user clicking on elements of a list may cause details for a contact to be rendered. Rendering of such details may be provided by an editor function where contact information may be modified and or supplemented, and preferences such as a primary label, for example, may be set.
- Another possible filtering interface may comprise an interface that allows a user to explicitly select desired rings to be shown. Such an interface may present a dialog box, and allow a user to enter the names of one or more rings into the dialog box.
- a possible further extension of this implementation may interpret user input as a regular expression, and then present all matching categories.
- a ring method of organizing contacts may provide a user with greater flexibility to segment contact lists into contexts that apply at any particular moment, while leaving out or de-emphasizing those that do not.
- a user may filter communications with contacts based upon how the user feels about various contacts at particular times and/or in particular contexts.
- a user who is at the office may feel that communications with co-workers and/or supervisors are more important and thus may turn off or de-emphasize family and/or friend's rings so that more immediately useful work-related contacts are emphasized in the foreground of an interface's graphical rendering.
- a user in the context of a family event such as wedding or family reunion, may feel that family contacts are more important and therefore make a family ring the immediate and most easily accessible ring.
- r-smart person-centric networks may be hierarchical in format.
- a "family" ring or group may be further broken down into sub-rings or sub-groups such as "immediate family” (such as wife, son, daughter, etc.), and "extended family” (such as mom, dad, uncle, cousin, etc.).
- Such hierarchical groupings may extend for multiple levels of sub-rings; for example, "cousins" in an extended family ring might open up or be selectable to reveal a sub- ring providing a list of all cousins.
- Figure 4 illustrates an example ring network 400 where a "family" ring 402 having "immediate family” and “extended” family contacts supports sub-rings 404 and 406 comprising, respectively, contacts within the immediate family and contacts within the extended family.
- the contact 408 labeled "cousins" in the extended family sub-ring 406 may then spawn a further sub-ring 410 comprising all cousin contacts.
- contacts within rings or sub-rings of network 400 may, depending on the user interface employed to display network 400, permit a user to select a contact, such as, for example, the "cousins" contact 408 of extended family sub-ring 406, to display any associated sub-rings such as sub-ring 110.
- contact information may be quite extensive and/or arbitrary.
- the nature of contact information may reflect an application and/or a ring.
- friends and family contacts may have names and addresses with phone numbers and email addresses.
- employment-related contacts may include office addresses and phone extensions.
- a context of a contact may be entered along with other contact information.
- a contact manager enhanced to support r-smart person-centric networks may provide an enhanced format for a user to enter contact information.
- FIG. 5 shows one example embodiment of an enhanced contact form 500 in accordance with some implementations of claimed subject matter.
- form 500 is just one of many possible contact forms suitable for person-centric networks.
- the example of form 500 includes the following fields for entering contact information: first name, last name, phone number, email, role played, primary label, and ring membership.
- a user may directly enter a role played by a contact, a primary label associated with a contact and a list of ring memberships for a contact.
- a user of form 500 may enter a primary label of "work” for that contact while also listing membership for that contact in both a "work" ring and a "friends" ring.
- an application may support a ring manager separate from a contacts list manager.
- a user may add contacts to one or more rings rather than adding rings to the contacts.
- a primary label may be implied or derived from other information potentially in combination with user preferences. Further, some or all of the information on a form may be optional. In addition, there may be a default ring for those who are not placed on any ring.
- r- smart person-centric networks such as rings may be internally defined using list structures. Accordingly, the head of a list may comprise a ring name, and subsequent members of the list may comprise references to members of a ring. Sub-lists may represent hierarchical information within such list structures.
- a person-centric list structure in accordance with claimed subject matter might take the following form: (ring-top (Important Wife Ann) (Family Mom Dad Sister Wife (cousins Rick Rob Cindy Kevin)) (Management Susan Greg John) (Team Members Greg Dirk Ann) (Friends Randy Mike Doyle)).
- Such person-centric list structures in accordance with claimed subject matter may be in various formats such as American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) format, binary format, etc, the particularly format not being limiting.
- labels such as the primary label "important" may comprise references such as database keys or address pointers, among many other possibilities.
- some implementations in accordance with claimed subject matter may employ data structures or arrays to define r-smart person-centric networks. Many other forms of internal representations will be apparent to those skilled in the arts of computer programming.
- Such special rings may include, for example, "everybody” and “nobody” rings where an everybody ring may comprise a flat contact list that includes all contacts, and a nobody ring may contain all contacts that do not belong to any other ring.
- Various implementations may give such special rings names other than "everybody” and "nobody”.
- FIG. 6 is a block diagram of an example communications system 600.
- System 600 may be used to perform some or all of the various functions discussed above in connection with Figures 1-5.
- System 600 may comprise any device or collection of devices capable of facilitating communication of information.
- system 600 may comprise a terminal device such as a desktop computer, a laptop computer, a handheld computer, a smart and/or cellular telephone, a PDA, etc.
- System 600 includes a central processing unit (CPU) 610 such as a processor capable of providing and/or facilitating communications functions, memory 620 coupled to CPU 610, and a display device 630 coupled to CPU 610 and/or memory 620.
- CPU central processing unit
- memory 620 coupled to CPU 610
- display device 630 coupled to CPU 610 and/or memory 620.
- GPU graphics processing unit
- Such displayable information may be presented on display device 630 in the form of a GUI where that GUI may be capable of providing visual representations of r-smart person-centric networks in accordance with some implementations of claimed subject matter.
- CPU 610 may include logic adapted to facilitate, build, generate and/or operate on internal representations such as list structures, data structures and/or arrays used to define r-smart person-centric networks. Further, in accordance with some implementations of claimed subject matter, memory 620 may act in conjunction with CPU 610 to store or hold at least portions of such internal representations.
- memory 620 and/or CPU 610 may be further coupled to a memory controller, not shown in Figure 6, that may facilitate the communication of information, such as information specifying a GUI, between CPU 610 and/or memory 620.
- memory 620 which may comprise memory internal to CPU 610, and/or which may comprise one or more discrete memory devices external to CPU 610, may comprise any memory technology (e.g., random access memory (RAM), flash memory, etc.).
- RAM random access memory
- memory 620 may, at least temporarily, store or hold information capable of providing visual representations of r-smart person-centric networks.
- Such information may comprise, for example, information specifying at least portions of a GUI capable of providing visual representations of r- smart person-centric networks and capable of being displayed on display device 630.
- Display device 630 may comprise any type of display device such as a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) display, a polymer-based display, an electroluminescent display, a Plasma Display Panel (PDP), or a Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) display, to name a few of the more prominent examples.
- LCD Liquid Crystal Display
- PDP Plasma Display Panel
- CRT Cathode Ray Tube
- example system 600 is shown with a particular configuration of components, other implementations are possible using any of a wide range of configurations. Further, those skilled in the art will recognize that system 600 may include many additional components such as communications busses etc., not particularly germane to claimed subject matter, that have not been illustrated in Figure 6 in the interests of not obscuring claimed subject matter.
- Figure 7 is a flow diagram of an example method 700 in accordance with- some implementations of claimed subject matter.
- Method 700 may implement and/or perform some or all of the various functions and/or schemes discussed above in connection with Figures 1-5 and details regarding the various acts of method 700 have been provided above in reference to those figures and will not be repeated below in the discussion of Fig. 7. Any ordering of the acts shown in Fig. 7 does not limit claimed subject matter and does not imply that the acts must be undertaken in the order shown and/or that any particular act in Fig. 7 is necessarily dependent upon another act.
- a plurality of personal contacts may be provided, while in act 704 those personal contacts may be organized by associating them with at least one emotient property. Further, in act 706, at least some of those contacts received in act 702 may be organized into at least one group (e.g., a ring) comprising contacts having a common.property. The at least one group formed in act 706 may, in act 708, be further organized into a plurality of sub-groups. In addition, in act 710, an internal representation of the groups and/or sub-groups may be formed comprising at least one of a list structure, a data structure and/or an array. Also, in act 712, at least one derived property may be determined.
- implementations may be in hardware, such as employed to operate on a device or combination of devices, for example, whereas other implementations may be in software. Further, some implementations may be employed in firmware, or as any combination of hardware, software, and/or firmware, for example. Likewise, although claimed subject matter is not limited in scope in this respect, some implementations may comprise one or more articles, such as a storage medium or storage media.
- This storage media such as, one or more CD-ROMs, computer disks, flash memory, or the like, for example, may have instructions stored thereon, that, when executed by a system, such as a computer system, computing platform, or other system, for example, may result in execution of an implementation of a method in accordance with claimed subject matter, such as one of the implementations previously described, for example.
- a computing platform may include one or more processing units or processors, one or more input/output devices, such as a display, a keyboard and/or a mouse, and/or one or more memories, such as static random access memory, dynamic random access memory, flash memory, and/or a hard drive.
- references in the specification to "an implementation,” “one implementation,” “some implementations,” or “other implementations” may mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with one or more implementations may be included in at least some implementations, but not necessarily in all implementations.
- the various appearances of "an implementation,” “one implementation,” or “some implementations” in the preceding description are not necessarily all referring to the same implementations.
- the article “a” includes one or more items.
- when terms or phrases such as “coupled” or “responsive” or “in response to” or “in communication with” are used herein or in the claims that follow, these terms should be interpreted broadly.
- the phrase “coupled to” may refer to being communicatively, electrically and/or operatively coupled as appropriate for the context in which the phrase is used.
