Abstract
Methods, systems, and computer readable media are provided for determining a collaboration status of a user of an electronic messaging system based on user data, including: (i) health data representative of a physiological parameter or mental engagement of the user and (ii) collaboration activity data representative of social collaboration activity of the user, to determine the collaboration status. Historical health data and collaboration activity data may be included in the determination of the collaboration status. In some aspects, the collaboration status may reflect a real-time collaboration status of the user.
Claims12
A method, in an electronic messaging system comprising at least one processor and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising instructions executed by the at least one processor to cause the at least one processsor to determine a collaboration status of a user, the method comprising:
- obtaining current health data representative of a physiological parameter or physical activity of the user;
- obtaining current collaboration activity data representative of social collaboration activity including workload of the user;
- determining a level of stress of the user based on the obtained current health data and the current collaboration activity data;
- obtaining one or more of historical health data and historical collaboration activity data of the user, and detecting one or more patterns of collaboration status of the user based on the one or more of historical health data and historical collaboration activity data;
- refining the detected one or more patterns of collaboration status based on the one or more of historical health data and historical collaboration activity data, according to the current health data and current collaboration data;
- and
- determining the collaboration status indicating availability of the user based on the determined level of stress from the current health data and collaboration activity data, the one or more patterns of collaboration status of the user, and the refined one or more patterns of collaborative status.
