Abstract

A system and method for dynamically generating and displaying a new home screen on a display of a user device are provided. The method comprises determining a user intent based on at least one input variable dynamically provided in real time; dynamically selecting a plurality of resources of information based on the user intent, wherein each selected resource has a representative icon; generating a new home screen including at least the icons of the plurality of dynamically selected resources; and causing a display of the new generated home screen on the user device.

Claims

1. A method for dynamically generating and displaying a new home screen on a display of a user device, comprising:

determining a user intent based on at least one input variable dynamically provided in real time;

dynamically selecting a plurality of resources of information based on the user intent, wherein each selected resource has a representative icon;

generating a new home screen including at least the icons of the plurality of dynamically selected resources; and

causing a display of the new generated home screen on the user device.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein each of the at least one input variable is at least one of:

an environmental variable, and a personal variable.

3. The method of claim 2, wherein each personal variable is any of:

a user profile, demographic information, and user preferences.

4. The method of claim 2, wherein each environmental variable is any of:

a location of the user device, a rate of motion of the user device, search history, browsing history and a time of day.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein determining the user intent further comprises:

determining a context of the at least one input variable; and

determining a category of interest based on the contexts of the at least one input variable, wherein the user intent is determined as the category of interest.

6. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

receiving at least a portion of a user query.

7. The method of claim 6, further comprising:

automatically completing the user query based on the at least one portion of the user query.

8. The method of claim 6, wherein the user query is at least one of:

a keyword, a portion of a keyword, a plurality of keywords, a character, and a series of characters.

9. The method of claim 8, wherein the user query is automatically completed based on the determined user intent.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein each representative icon is any one of:

a graphical symbol, a widget, and a gadget that causes to either activate or provide a link to the at least one selected resource of information.

11. A non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon instructions for causing one or more processing units to execute the method according to claim 1.

21. The system of claim 11, wherein each representative icon is any one of:

a graphical symbol, a widget, and a gadget that causes to either activate or provide a link to the at least one selected resource of information.

12. A system for dynamically generating and displaying a new home screen on a display of a user device, comprising:

a display;

a processing unit; and

a memory, the memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processing unit, configure the system to;

determine a user intent based on at least one input variable dynamically provided in real time;

dynamically select a plurality of resources of information based on the user intent, wherein each selected resource has a representative icon;

generate a new home screen including at least the icons of the plurality of dynamically selected resources; and

cause a display of the new generated home screen on the display.

13. The system of claim 12, wherein each of the at least one input variable is at least one of:

an environmental variable, and a personal variable.

14. The system of claim 13, wherein each personal variable is any of:

a user profile, demographic information, and user preferences.

15. The system of claim 13, wherein each environmental variable is any of:

a location of the user device, a rate of motion of the user device, search history, browsing history and a time of day.

16. The system of claim 12, wherein the system is further configured to:

determine a context of the at least one input variable; and

determine a category of interest based on the contexts of the at least one input variable, wherein the user intent is determined as the category of interest.

17. The system of claim 12, wherein the system is further configured to:

receiving at least a portion of a user query.

18. The system of claim 17, wherein the system is further configured to:

automatically complete the user query based on the at least one portion of the user query.

19. The system of claim 18, wherein the at least a portion of the user query is at least one of:

a keyword, a portion of a keyword, a plurality of keywords, a character, and a series of characters.

20. The system of claim 19, wherein the user query is automatically completed based on the determined user intent.
