CONTACT LIST AVAILABILITY PRIORITIZATION
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for contact list prioritization according to predicted reachability, the method comprising:
- loading a contact list of contacts in memory of a host computer;
retrieving a reachability value for each corresponding contact in the contact list that has been computed for each corresponding contact according to usage data of each corresponding contact for an associated mobile telephone; and
,displaying ones of the contacts first in the contact list that are determined to be most reachable according to a corresponding reachability value.

Abstract
A method for contact list prioritization according to predicted reachability includes loading a contact list of contacts and retrieving a reachability value for each corresponding contact in the contact list that has been computed for each corresponding contact according to usage data of each corresponding contact for an associated mobile telephone. Thereafter, contacts in the contact list that are determined to be most reachable according to a corresponding reachability value are displayed first.
