1. A computing system, comprising:
- at least one processor; and
memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, wherein the instructions, when executed, configure the computing system to provide;
a context identification system configured to detect a plurality of different sensor inputs, indicative of a plurality of different items of context, from a plurality of different sources of context;
a cross-source search component configured to detect a trigger input and search a plurality of different content sources, to identify a set of documents, based on the trigger input;
a relevancy generator configured to generate a relevancy metric corresponding to each document in the identified set of documents, based on the plurality of different items of context; and
a user interface component configured to generate a user interface display that selectively displays the documents in the set of documents based on the corresponding relevancy metric.

Abstract
A computing device receives a trigger to surface relevant content. The device also obtains a variety of different types of cross-source contextual information. Items of content are identified and relevancy weights are obtained based on the contextual information. A relevancy is calculated, based on the relevancy weights, for each item of content. The items of content are surfaced.

18. A computer implemented method, comprising:
-
detecting a plurality of different sensor inputs, indicative of a plurality of different items of context, from a plurality of different sources of context; detecting a trigger input; in response to the trigger input, searching a plurality of different content sources, to identify a set of documents, based on the trigger input; detecting a user location; generating a relevancy measure corresponding to each document in the identified set of documents, based on the user location and the plurality of different items of context; and generating a user interface display that selectively displays the documents in the set of documents based on the corresponding relevancy score. - View Dependent Claims (19)

20. A computing system, comprising:
-
at least one processor; and memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, wherein the instructions, when executed, configure the computing system to provide; a context identification system configured to detect a plurality of different sensor inputs, indicative of a plurality of different items of context, from a plurality of different sources of context, including whether a user is using the computing system in a work context or a non-work context; a document interaction detector configured to detect user interactions corresponding to each of the documents; a cross-source search component configured to detect a trigger input and search a plurality of different content sources, to identify a set of documents, based on the trigger input; a relevancy generator configured to generate a relevancy metric corresponding to each document in the identified set of documents, based on the plurality of different items of context and the detected user interactions; and a user interface component configured to generate a user interface display that selectively displays the documents in the set of documents based on the corresponding relevancy metric.
