Portable terminal reflecting user's environment and method for operating the same
First Claim
1. A method for providing a user interface reflecting a user'"'"'s environment in a portable terminal, the method comprising:
- collecting an environment information in real time or periodically when a function is executed in the portable terminal, the environment information comprise time information, location information;
storing the environment information matching with the executed function information in memory;
generating usage pattern information by analyzing the environment information matching with the executed function information, wherein the analyzing the environment information comprises;
classifying the environment information based on the executed functions,separating the environment information identical or satisfying a preset error range,determining whether the environment information identical to the classified environment information or a number of pieces of environment information satisfying a preset error range is equal to or greater than a preset number,collecting current environment information of the portable terminal; and
responsive to the current environment information matching the usage pattern information, displaying a graphic user interface (GUI) containing an icon that corresponds to execution means of the function or information related to the function;
wherein the current environment information of the portable terminal comprises at least one of current time information, and current location information.

Abstract
A portable terminal reflecting a user'"'"'s environment and a method for operating the same are disclosed. The method includes: generating usage pattern information that contains pattern environment information of the portable terminal and function information corresponding to the pattern environment information; collecting current environment information of the portable terminal; searching for pattern environment information that is substantially identical to the collected current environment information; extracting function information corresponding to the searched pattern environment information; and configuring a graphic user interface (GUI) based on the extracted function information.
