System and method for providing profile enhancement using scheduling information
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method, comprising:
- defining at least one event type in a scheduling tool of a workstation;
scheduling a time to initiate the at least one event type in the scheduling tool;
associating at least one notification profile of a device with the defined at least one event type; and
changing a setting of the device to the at least one notification profile in response to the scheduling time and the defined at least one event type implemented by a hardware device using a processor, wherein the changing is performed by sending an executable attachment from the workstation to the portable device which, when executed, changes the setting, andprior to changing the setting, notifying a user of the changing of the setting and providing an opportunity for the user to accept or deny the changing setting.

Abstract
A system and method of enhancing a profile of a portable device. The system and method includes defining an event type in a scheduling tool and scheduling a time to initiate the event type. The system and method further includes associating a notification profile of a device with the defined event type and changing a setting of the device to the notification profile in response to the scheduling time and the defined event type.

1. A method, comprising:
-
defining at least one event type in a scheduling tool of a workstation; scheduling a time to initiate the at least one event type in the scheduling tool; associating at least one notification profile of a device with the defined at least one event type; and changing a setting of the device to the at least one notification profile in response to the scheduling time and the defined at least one event type implemented by a hardware device using a processor, wherein the changing is performed by sending an executable attachment from the workstation to the portable device which, when executed, changes the setting, and prior to changing the setting, notifying a user of the changing of the setting and providing an opportunity for the user to accept or deny the changing setting. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22)

23. A method comprising:
-
selecting an event type in a calendar tool; associating a notification profile to the selected event type; scheduling a time for the event type to take place in the calendar tool; changing a notification method of a portable device with the notification profile in response to the scheduled time of the event type and the selected event type using a computing device with a processor, wherein the changing is performed by sending an executable attachment to the portable device which, when executed, changes the notification method; and prior to changing the notification method, notifying a user of the changing of the notification method and providing an opportunity for the user to accept or deny the changing notification method. - View Dependent Claims (24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)

- 33. A system comprising a calendar tool containing data associated with one or more event types and notification profiles, and at least a hardware component for setting an event type of the one or more event types to a scheduled time, associating the event type with a notification profile of the one or more notification profiles, providing default notification profiles for each event type, and initiating a change of a notification method in a portable device to the default notification profile associated with the scheduled event, upon its occurrence.

38. A process for integrating computing infrastructure, comprising integrating computer-readable code into a computer system, wherein the computer system comprises a computer usable storage medium, wherein the computer usable storage medium comprises a profile notification enhancement, and wherein the code in combination with the computer system is capable of performing a method comprising:
-
defining an event type and scheduling time in a calendar tool; associating a notification profile of a device with the defined event type; changing a notification method to the associated notification profile in response to receiving a scheduling time of the defined event type by sending an executable attachment that, when sent to a second device and upon execution, changes the notification profile; and prior to changing the notification profile, notifying a user of the change and providing an opportunity for the user to accept or deny the change.

39. A computer system for changing notification profiles based on a calendaring event, the system comprising:
-
a CPU, a computer readable memory and a computer readable storage media; first program instructions to define at least one event type in a scheduling tool; second program instructions to schedule a time to initiate the at least one event type in the scheduling tool; third program instructions to associate at least one notification profile of a device with the defined at least one event type; fourth program instructions to provide an executable attachment that, when sent to a second device and upon execution, changes a notification profile; fifth program instructions to change a setting of the device to the at least one notification profile in response to the scheduling time and the defined at least one event type implemented by a hardware device using a processor; sixth program instructions to notify a user of the changing of the setting and providing an opportunity to for the user to accept or deny the changing setting, prior to changing the setting; wherein the first through sixth program instructions are stored on the computer readable storage media for execution by the CPU via the computer readable memory.
