Method and apparatus to facilitate using a hierarchical task model with respect to corresponding end users
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- automatically accessing a hierarchical task model as corresponds to a particular task to be executed by a plurality of given end users to identify presently un-executed agenda elements;
automatically accessing characterizing information for at least two of the plurality of given end users;
automatically using the characterizing information and the un-executed agenda elements to individually identify a highest hierarchical level within the hierarchical task model as corresponds to an individual wherewithal corresponding respectively to each of the at least two of the plurality of given end users to provide information to facilitate successful execution of the particular task without also needing lower hierarchical level content within the hierarchical task model.

Abstract
One automatically accesses (101) a hierarchical task model as corresponds to a particular task to be executed by a given end user to thereby identify one or more presently un-executed agenda elements. One also automatically accesses (102) characterizing information for that given end user. (By one approach, for example, this characterizing information can comprise information regarding the given end user'"'"'s knowledge.) This information regarding the un-executed agenda elements and the characterizing information are then used (103) to identify a highest hierarchical level within the hierarchical task model as corresponds to the given end user'"'"'s wherewithal to successfully execute without also needing lower hierarchical level content within the hierarchical task model. The identified highest hierarchical level within the hierarchical task model is then used (104) to generate a presentation to present to the given end user to thereby facilitate execution of the particular task by the given end user.

7. An apparatus comprising:
-
a first memory having stored therein information comprising presently un-executed agenda elements of a hierarchical task model as corresponds to a particular task to be executed by a plurality of given end users; a second memory having stored therein characterizing information for at least two of the plurality of given end users; a processor that is operably coupled to the first memory and the second memory and that is configured to automatically use the characterizing information and the un-executed agenda elements to individually identify a highest hierarchical level within the hierarchical task model as corresponds to an individual wherewithal corresponding respectively to each of the at least two of the plurality of given end users to provide information to facilitate successful execution of the particular task without also needing lower hierarchical level content within the hierarchical task model. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
