Hierarchical events
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for organization of hierarchical events, the system comprising:
- a first computing sub-system that generates a parent event classifying a hierarchy of events, the first computing sub-system including at least one processor and being associated with a planner of the parent event;
a second computing sub-system that generates a new child event corresponding to the hierarchy of events, the second computing sub-system including at least one processor and being associated with an invitee to at least one event from the hierarchy of events, wherein availability of an individual at a given level in the hierarchy of events is determined by time reservations of all events for the individual subject to a hierarchical relationship of all the events; and
a server that generates information related to a display of the new child event in a calendar application displayed at the computing subsystems associated with the planner and the invitee, the new child event scheduled for a first person for a first time period which overlaps with a second time period scheduled for the parent event for the first person, the new child event displayed as not conflicting with the parent event.

Abstract
Systems and methods for the organization of hierarchical events are disclosed. A parent event in a first calendar application workspace classifies a hierarchy of events. A child event child event corresponds to a hierarchy of events. Identification of the parent event and a new child event results in the display of the new child event in a second calendar application workspace, the new child event being a scheduled event in the hierarchy of events that does not indicate a calendaring conflict with the parent event. A collaborative organization environment for discussion concerning the new child event may be provided.

5. A method for organization of hierarchical events, the method comprising:
-
receiving an identification of a parent event in a first calendar application workspace at a computing device, the parent event classifying a hierarchy of events; receiving an identification of a new child event at the computing device, wherein the new child event corresponds to the hierarchy of events, wherein availability of an individual at a given level in the hierarchy of events is determined by time reservations of all events for the individual subject to a hierarchical relationship of all the events; and executing instructions stored in memory, wherein execution of instructions by a processor displays the new child event in a second calendar application workspace, wherein the new child event is a scheduled event having a first time period which overlaps with a second time period scheduled for the parent event for a first person, the new child event in the hierarchy of events displayed as not having a calendaring conflict with the parent event. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48)

49. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having embodied thereon a program, the program being executable by a processor to perform a method for organization of hierarchical events, the method comprising:
-
receiving an identification of a parent event in a first calendar application workspace, the parent event classifying a hierarchy of events; receiving an identification of a new child event, wherein the new child event corresponds to the hierarchy of events, wherein availability of an individual at a given level in the hierarchy of events is determined by time reservations of all events for the individual subject to a hierarchical relationship of all the events; and displaying the new child event in a second calendar application workspace, wherein the new child event is a scheduled event in the hierarchy of events and scheduled for a first time period for a first person which overlaps with a second time period scheduled for the parent event for the first person, the new child event displayed as not having a calendaring conflict with the parent event.
