Systems and methods for storing a pattern occurring in situation representations for context representation in an application
First Claim
1. A system for storing a pattern occurring in situation representations for a context representation in an application, the system comprising:
- a first storage medium for storing representations of situations in which a user is or has been involved, as a plurality of situation representations, each situation representation including at least one property of the respective situation;
a pattern identifier for identifying patterns in the representations of situations, wherein a pattern is identified when a property is shared by at least two of the plurality of stored situation representations;
a second storage medium for storing, after the patterns are identified by the pattern identifier, representations of the identified patterns, wherein the first storage medium removes the at least two situation representations from the first storage medium in response to the identification of the pattern; and
a context modeller for modelling the context representation from the stored situation representations and the identified patterns.

Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for storing a pattern occurring in situation representations for context representation in an application. A system stores a pattern occurring in situation representations for context representation in an application. The system includes a first storage medium for storing a plurality of situations in which the user is or has been involved, as a respective plurality of situation representations having at least one property determined by the respective situation. The system also includes a pattern identifier for identifying a pattern including a common property shared by at least two of the plurality of situation representations in the plurality of stored situation representations. The system further includes a second storage medium for storing a representation of the pattern. The first storage medium is arranged to remove the at least two of the plurality of situation representations from the first storage medium in response to the identification of the pattern.

16. A computer-implemented method of storing a pattern occurring in situation representations for context representation in an application, the method comprising the steps, performed by a computer, of:
-
storing in a first storage medium representations of situations in which a user is or has been involved, as a plurality of situation representations, each situtation representation including at least one property of the respective situation; identifying, using a processor, patterns in the representations of situations, wherein a pattern is identified when a property is shared by at least two of the plurality of stored situation representations; storing in a second storage medium, after the patterns are identified by the pattern identifier, representations of the identified patterns, wherein the first storage medium removes the at least two situation representations from the first storage medium in response to the identification of the pattern; and a context modeller for modelling the context representation from the stored situation representations and the identified patterns. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)

31. A program storage device readable by a processing apparatus, the device embodying a program of instructions executable by the processor to perform a computer-implemented method, the computer-implemented method comprising:
-
storing in a first storage medium representations of situations in which a user is or has been involved, as a plurality of situation representations, each situtation representation including at least one property of the respective situation; identifying, using the processing apparatus, patterns in the representations of situations, wherein a pattern is identified when a property is shared by at least two of the plurality of stored situation representations; storing in a second storage medium, after the patterns are identified by the pattern identifier, representations of the identified patterns, wherein the first storage medium removes the at least two situation representations from the first storage medium in response to the identification of the pattern; and a context modeller for modelling the context representation from the stored situation representations and the identified patterns.
