First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- grouping electronic communications into clusters to form clustered data;
deriving at least one activity area from the clustered data, each activity area being a defined community of interconnected participants;
classifying each received communication into one of the activity areas to create a grouping of communications within each activity area; and
generating an attention report illustrating the created grouping of communications, including showing a representative communication for each activity area in the attention report.

Abstract
Embodiments of the invention relate to a method, system, and computer program product to group and prioritize communications. Attention reports are automatically generated with representative communications displayed to a user for processing. As new communications are received, they are adaptively incorporated into the groupings and prioritization, together with previously received and processed communications.

10. A computer program product for use with electronic communication data, the computer program product comprising:
-
a computer readable non-transitory storage medium having computer readable program code embodied thereon, the program code which when executed causes a computer to; group electronic communications into clusters to form clustered data; derive at least one activity area from the clustered data, each activity area being a defined community of interconnected participants; classify each communication into one of the activity areas to create a group of communications within each activity area; and generate an attention report to illustrate the created group of communications, including a representative communication for each activity area in the attention report. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A system comprising:
-
a shared pool of configurable resources, the shared pool including a physical host in communication with a plurality of physical machines, the physical host having a processing unit in communication with memory and data storage; a functional unit local to a memory module and in communication with the processing unit, the functional unit having tools comprising; a cluster manager to group the electronic communications into clusters to form clustered data, derive at least one activity area from the clustered data, and to classify each received communication into one of the activity areas, each activity area being a defined community of interconnected participants; a report manager in communication with the cluster manager, the report manager to generate an attention report based on any received communications, the report to illustrate the activity areas to which each communication is grouped, including a representative communication for each activity area. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
