Abstract

A display apparatus for use in a wireless terminal is provided. A memory stores user interface (UI) data for cases mapped to events occurring in the wireless terminal. A controller collects the events occurring in the wireless terminal. The controller selects at least one executable case for the collected events. The controller selects UI data including a character image for the at least one selected executable case from the memory and outputs the selected UI data. A display unit displays the UI data.

Claims

1. A method comprising:

in response to detecting an event including at least one token, selecting a task processor to perform a task for the event from one or more task processors based at least on priority information associated with the one or more task processors;

selecting and displaying a user interface (UI) including a character for the selected task processor based at least on a value assigned to the character, the UI further including a feedback request and at least one selectable response at least partially generated from the at least one token; and

updating the value in response to a user input received via the UI.

2. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

displaying the character as at least partially modified based on the updated value.

3. The method of claim 1, wherein the UI further comprises:

a prompt requesting a user to provide feedback responsive to the UI.

4. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

selecting another task processor associated with another task based at least in part on the user input.

5. The method of claim 1, wherein the displaying comprises:

determining the UI based at least in part on the value.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the displaying comprises:

selecting a different image for the character according to the value.

7. The method of claim 1, the selecting comprises:

selecting the task processor based at least in part on determining that at least one event associated with a wireless device has occurred.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein the updating comprises:

updating the value further based on the at least one event.

9. The method of claim 1, further comprising:

determining the priority information based on at least one of specified priority information associated with the one or more task processors or user preference information.

10. The method of claim 9, further comprising:

determining the user preference information based at least in part on prior user feedback associated with the one or more task processors.

11. A system comprising:

a display unit; and

a controller configured to;

in response to detecting an event including an indication of at least one token, select a task processor to perform a task for the event from one or more task processors based at least on priority information associated with the one or more task processors,

select and display a user interface (UI) on the display unit including a character for the selected task processor based at least on a value assigned to the character, the UI further including a feedback request and at least one selectable response at least partially generated from the at least one token, and

update the value in response to a user input received via the UI.

12. The system of claim 11, wherein the controller is further configured to:

determine, based on the updated value, the character for display via the display unit as at least partially modified.

13. The system of claim 11, wherein the UI further includes text.

14. The system of claim 11, wherein the UI further comprises:

a prompt requesting a user to provide feedback responsive to the UI.

15. The system of claim 11, wherein the processor is further configured to:

select another task processor associated with another task based at least in part on the user input.

16. The system of claim 11, wherein the controller is configured to:

determine the UI further based at least in part on the value.

17. The system of claim 11, wherein the controller is configured to:

select the task processor further based at least in part on determining that at least one event associated with a wireless device has occurred.

18. The system of claim 11, wherein the controller is further configured to:

determine the priority information based on at least one of specified priority information associated with the one or more task processors or user preference information.

19. The system of claim 18, wherein the controller is further configured to:

determine the user preference information based at least in part on prior user feedback associated with the one or more task processors.

20. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions executable by one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

in response to detecting an event including an indication of at least one token, selecting a task processor to perform a task for the event from one or more task processors based at least on priority information associated with the one or more task processors;

selecting and displaying a user interface (UI) including a character for the selected task processor based at least on a value assigned to the character, the UI further including a feedback request and at least one selectable response at least partially generated from the at least one token; and

updating the value in response to a user input received via the UI.
