Prioritizing Communications On A Communication Device

Abstract:

Embodiments include methods, devices, systems, and non-transitory process-readable storage media for prioritizing communications. Some embodiments may include receiving, by a communication device, a plurality of messages from a server. The communication device may apply a first level ordering to each of the plurality of messages to determine a set of role-based categories, a second level ordering to each of the plurality of messages to assign each of the plurality of messages to one of the role-based categories, and a third level ordering to each of the plurality of messages to rank the plurality of messages within the assigned role-based category based on an assigned priority, a message type, and a timestamp of each of the plurality of messages. The communication device may generate an ordered presentation of the plurality of messages based on the determined rank of the plurality of messages within the assigned role-based category.
