PROCESSING OF MESSAGES USING THEME AND MODALITY CRITERIA
First Claim
1. A computing system for message processing, comprising:
- receiver logic to receive a message addressed to a user;
analysis logic, operatively coupled with the receiver logic, to determine whether a message collection, comprising the message and one or more previously detected messages, has a common theme, wherein the message collection has a common theme when the messages in the message collection have a common sender or have common content;
modality logic, operatively coupled with the receiver logic, to identify a messaging modality associated with each of the messages in the message collection;
criteria logic, operatively coupled with the modality logic, to determine whether the message collection satisfies modality criteria, wherein the modality criteria specify that at least two different messaging modalities be associated with messages in the message collection; and
notification logic, operatively coupled with the criteria logic, to provide a notification of the message collection in response to a determination that the message collection has a common theme and a determination that the message collection satisfies the modality criteria.

Abstract
Embodiments related to a message processing system are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, a computing system may include receiver logic to receive a message addressed to a user; analysis logic to determine whether a message collection, including the received message, has a common theme (e.g., a common sender or common content); modality logic to identify a messaging modality associated with each of the messages in the message collection; criteria logic to determine whether the message collection satisfies modality criteria (e.g., the messages represent at least two different messaging modalities); and notification logic to provide a notification of the message collection in response to determining that the message collection has a common theme and satisfies the modality criteria. Other embodiments may be disclosed and/or claimed.

9. A method for message processing, comprising:
-
receiving, with a computing system, a message addressed to a user; determining, with the computing system, whether a message collection, comprising the message and one or more previously detected messages, has a common theme, wherein the message collection has a common theme when the messages in the message collection have a common sender or have common content; identifying, with the computing system, a messaging modality associated with each of the messages in the message collection; determining, with the computing system, whether the message collection satisfies modality criteria, wherein the modality criteria specify that at least two different messaging modalities be associated with messages in the message collection; and in response to determining that the message collection has a common theme and determining that the message collection satisfies the modality criteria, notifying the user, with the computing system, of the message collection. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12)

20. One or more computer readable media having instructions thereon that, when executed by one or more processing devices of a computing device, cause the computing device to:
-
receive a message addressed to a user; determine whether a message collection, comprising the message and one or more previously detected messages, has a common theme, wherein the message collection has a common theme when the messages in the message collection have a common sender or have common content; identify a messaging modality associated with each of the messages in the message collection; determine whether the message collection satisfies modality criteria, wherein the modality criteria specify that at least two different messaging modalities be associated with messages in the message collection; and in response to a determination that the message collection has a common theme and a determination that the message collection satisfies the modality criteria, provide a notification of the message collection. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
