ADAPTIVE TIMELINE INTERFACE FOR FACILITATING THE ACHIEVEMENT OF GOALS

Abstract:

A user-interface is provided for facilitating the achievement of goals. The goals that are facilitated using the interface may vary from implementation to implementation. The interface includes an event timeline that has a chronologically-ordered series of event entries. The event entries indicate tasks associated with a plan for achieving one or more goals specified by the user. The plan is automatically determined by an automated service based on the user's specified goals, the timing/priority specified for those goals, and information about the user obtained from sources other than the user. The automated service periodically collects information from those sources to determine whether the user performs the specified tasks in compliance with the timings specified in the plan. In response to determining non-compliance, the service automatically revises the plan and generates a revised event timeline with event entries for tasks in the revised plan. The interface may include a metric timeline that displays predicted future values of a metric associated with one or more of the user's goals. A "now-line" in the metric timeline may move automatically in sync with the user scrolling the event timeline.
