1. A system comprising:

  • an input device configured to receive attention tracking data from attention tracking hardware;

    a processor; and

    a memory arranged to store pending display change requests and a display change control module comprising device-executable instructions, which when executed, cause the processor to;

    receive display change requests from a plurality of applications;

    store the change requests in the memory;

    select a change request from those stored in the memory based on the attention tracking data and parameters associated with each change request, wherein the parameters include a first time window parameter indicating a first time window for rendering a change defined in the selected change request;

    identify one or more other change requests of the stored change requests that have a second time window indicating a second time for rendering one or more changes defined in the one or more other change requests, wherein the one or more other change requests is identified based on an overlap between the first time window and the second time window;

    identify a plurality of screens of a display device;

    based on the attention tracking data and parameters, determine a screen of the plurality of screens for rendering the change defined by the selected change request; and

    cause the change defined by the selected change request and the one or more other changes defined by the one or more other change requests to be rendered in a graphical user interface (GUI) on the determined screen of the display device, wherein determination of the screen is based at least in part on an attention position relative to members of the plurality of screens, and wherein the change defined by the selected change request and the one or more other changes defined by the one or more other change requests are rendered as a group.
