SCENARIO-BASED SEARCH
First Claim
1. A system that facilitates computer-based search, comprising:
- a user objective analyzer component that analyzes extrinsic information related to a user and infers or determines a goal of the user; and
a search component that executes a scenario-based computer search as a function of the inferred or determined user goal and automatically prompts an action based upon a result of the computer search.

Abstract
The innovation provides for a computer search to become an action that has direct nexus to an inferred (or determined) goal of an individual. The goal can be inferred or determined from any number of context/state factors. The innovation can query a user to determine user context and state factors by which a goal, objective or intent can be automatically established. The innovation can also utilize machine learning/reasoning to establish the goal of a user based upon historical, statistical and/or other probabilistic analysis. Still further, the innovation can monitor a user'"'"'s context and state thereafter dynamically journaling and logging the criterion by which the user'"'"'s objective(s) can be established. Once a goal is established, a goal-based search can be automatically conducted thereafter prompting for an action based upon a subset of the search results.

16. A computer-implemented method of establishing a goal-related computer-based search, comprising:
-
dynamically analyzing extrinsic information related to a user; dynamically inferring an intended goal of the user as a function of the analyzed extrinsic information; dynamically executing search queries based on the inferred user goal; dynamically caching and updating the search results; and automatically prompting for an action as a function of a subset of the search results. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18)

19. A computer-executable system that facilitates an objective-based computer search, comprising:
-
means for determining an objective of a user from a plurality of context/state factors; means for identifying a plurality of search criteria based at least in part upon the objective; means for executing a search based at least in part upon a subset of the plurality of search criteria; and means for initiating an action based upon a result set of the search. - View Dependent Claims (20)
