INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES AIMING AT THE REDUCTION OF THEIR OWN ENERGY USE ## Abstract Pacer activity data of a user may be managed. For example, historical activity data of a user corresponding to a particular time of a day prior to a current day may be received. Additionally, a user interface configured to display an activity goal of the user may be generated and the user interface may be provided for presentation. In some aspects, the user interface may be configured to display a first indicator that identifies cumulative progress towards the activity goal and a second indicator that identifies predicted cumulative progress towards the activity goal. The cumulative progress may be calculated based on monitored activity from a start of the current day to the particular time of the current day and the predicted cumulative progress may be calculated based on the received historical activity data corresponding to the particular time of the day prior to the current day. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A system, comprising: a memory configured to store computer-executable instructions; and a processor in communication with the memory configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to at least: determine a predicted amount of activity of a user for at least one interval of a time period based at least in part on historical activity data of the user; identify an activity goal of the user for the time period; collect current activity data of the user from an activity tracking device, for a current interval of the time period; generate a pace element to represent the predicted amount of activity data of the user for the current interval of the time period; and provide a user interface that presents the pace element for the user with respect to the collected current activity data as at least a portion of the activity goal for the time period, wherein the pace element is configured to move on the user interface as the predicted amount of activity of the user changes for the current interval of the time period. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the activity data is tracked cumulatively. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the predicted amount of activity is based at least in part on a probability that the user will meet a threshold activity level during the at least one interval. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one interval comprises the current interval. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the predicted amount of activity is based at least in part on historical activity data of the user. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one interval or the current interval comprise an hour of time. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the identified activity goal is received from the user. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the current activity data is collected by the activity tracking device in communication with the processor and configured to provide the current activity data for storage in the memory. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The system of claim 1, wherein the processor is further configured to execute the computer-executable instructions to at least receive the current activity data from a computing device external to the system. ### Claim 10 A computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, configure the processor to perform operations comprising: receiving, from a data collecting device, activity data of a user, the activity data comprising historical activity data and current activity data; identifying predicted activity data of the user for an interval of a time period, the predicted activity data based at least in part on the historical activity data; receiving, from the user, an activity goal for the time period; generating a pace element to represent the predicted activity data of the user for the current interval; and generating a user interface configured to present the pace element for the user and the current activity data as separate indicators of portions of the activity goal for at least the interval of the time period, wherein the pace element is configured to move on the user interface as the predicted amount of activity of the user changes for the current interval of the time period. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The one or more computer-readable media of claim 10, wherein the data collecting device is configured to identify user activity of the user and generate the activity data based at least in part on the identified user activity. ### Claim 12 (depends on 10) The computer-readable medium of claim 10, wherein the operations further comprise: providing the historical activity data to a service provider configured to determine a probability of an amount of activity for at least the time interval; and receiving, from the service provider, the predicted activity data. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The computer-readable medium of claim 12, wherein the predicted activity data is based at least in part on the determined probability of the amount of activity for at least the time interval. ### Claim 14 (depends on 10) The computer-readable medium of claim 10, wherein the user interface is provided to the data collection device for presentation to the user. ### Claim 15 A computer-implemented method, comprising: receiving, by a computing system comprising a processor historical activity data of a user corresponding to a particular time of a day prior to a current day; determining, by the processor, a predicted cumulative progress towards an activity goal of the user based at least in part on the historical activity data; generating, by the processor, a user interface configured to display the activity goal of the user, the user interface further configured to display: a progress indicator that identifies cumulative progress towards the activity goal, the cumulative progress calculated based at least in part on monitored activity from a start of the current day to the particular time of the current day; and a pace indicator that identifies predicted cumulative progress towards the activity goal, the predicted cumulative progress calculated based at least in part on the received historical activity data corresponding to the particular time of the day prior to the current day, wherein the pace element is configured to move on the user interface as the predicted amount of activity of the user changes for the current interval of the time period: and providing the user interface for presentation to a computing device of the user. ### Claim 16 (depends on 15) The computer-implemented method of claim 15, wherein the historical activity data comprises a number of calories burned. ### Claim 17 (depends on 15) The computer-implemented method of claim 15, wherein the user interface is configured to be presented as a bar or line. ### Claim 18 (depends on 15) The computer-implemented method of claim 15, wherein the user interface is configured to be presented as a circle or oval.
