Message management method
First Claim
1. A method for managing computer based messaging comprising:
- A) monitoring messages transmitted among persons within a messaging system over time, the messaging system comprising computer devices, each having at least one processor, at least some of the computer devices being individually associated with each of the persons, wherein the messages are stored in non-transitory storage, and wherein the messages collectively comprise a communication history;
B) identifying related messages within the communication history;
C) automatically analyzing the related messages, spanning a time interval, within the communication history, using a processor and natural language analytics, the analyzing being based upon;
(i) subject of each of the related messages,(ii) sentiment within each message of the related messages,(iii) context of each of the related messages, and(iv) frequency of transmittals of the related messages,wherein the analyzing comprises assigning, using the processor, at least;
a first value based upon the sentiment, a second value based upon content, and a third value based upon frequency;
D) calculating a messaging trend score for the related messages as a function of the first value, second value and third value;
E) comparing the messaging trend score to a pre-specified threshold value; and
F) when the score exceeds the pre-specified threshold value, automatically generating and issuing, using the processor, at least one of;
(i) a summary of the related messages,(ii) a timing based notification message to at least one of the persons, or(iii) a content-based notification to at least one of the persons regarding a messaging trend score inflection point.

Abstract
A method for managing computer based messaging involves monitoring messages transmitted within a messaging system over time; identifying related messages; and automatically analyzing the related messages using natural language analytics. The analyzing is based upon: subject of, sentiment within, and context of, each of the related messages, and frequency of transmittals of the related messages. The analyzing involves assigning at least: a first value based upon sentiment, a second value based upon content, and a third value based upon frequency, and calculating a score for the related messages as a function of the first value, second value and third value, comparing the score to a pre-specified threshold value; and when the score exceeds the pre-specified threshold value, automatically generating and issuing at least one of: (i) a summary of the related messages, (ii) a timing based notification message, or (iii) a content-based notification regarding a score inflection point.
