Method and apparatus for automatic notification and response based on communication flow expressions having dynamic context
First Claim
1. A method for providing a message from a sender to at least one recipient in accordance with a communication flow having a plurality of potential paths, said method comprising:
- receiving said message from said sender;
evaluating said communication flow, wherein said communication flow is controlled by a communication flow expression having a dynamic context, wherein said communication flow expression contains at least one primitive keyword indicating how said message should be processed; and
processing said message based on said communication flow expression.

Abstract
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for automatic notification and response based on communication flow expressions having dynamic context. A message is provided from a sender to at least one recipient in accordance with a communication flow having a plurality of potential paths. The communication flow is controlled by a communication flow expression having a dynamic context, wherein the communication flow expression contains at least one primitive keyword indicating how the message should be processed. The dynamic context of the communication flow expression may be established using one or more labels or a context function. A number of primitive keywords are provided that allow a communication flow expression to react to a dynamic context.
