SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED USER INTERFACE LAYOUT PRESENTATION BASED ON TASK

Abstract:

A system and method to assist in repetitively performing a task within an application/system is provided. Tracking information, in terms of how a user interacts with the application/system is stored. The tracking information includes a series of navigation actions the user takes to perform a task, and includes a sequence of user interface layouts presented in the course of performing the task. Based on the stored tracking information, a task-centric user interface layout is determined, and this is presented to the user in response to the user performing one of the navigation actions within the sequence of interface layouts. This saves the user from having to execute the series of navigation actions each time the user is to perform the task.
