Method, system and apparatus for efficiently determining priority of data in a database

A computing device for determining priority of data in a database managed by the computing device, said data comprising a list of events, said computing device comprising:

• a processing unit interconnected with a memory device and a display device, said processing unit enabled to:
• process context data to determine a priority ranking for each of said items and
• control respective areas of said display device to provide visual representations of each of said events in a calendar application, each respective area controlled according to said priority ranking.

The computing device of claim 15, wherein said priority ranking is further represented at said display device according to at least one of different icons, different fonts, different line widths, different colours, different transparencies and an absence of events below a threshold priority level.

The computing device of claim 17, wherein said reminder data includes an option for at least one of declining a calendar event invitation and moving an event associated with said data.

The computing device of claim 20, wherein said predetermined threshold value is based on at least one of a period of time that a recurring calendar event has not been attended, a number of times that said recurring calendar event has been attended, and a threshold priority ranking.

The computing device of claim 21, wherein said processing unit is further enabled to generate a prompt indicative that said delete data events should be generated wherein said generate said delete data events occurs after receiving a positive response to said prompt.

The computing device of claim 26, wherein at least another of said events corresponds to a non-travel-related calendar event that occurs during said travel period, said non-travel-related calendar event given diminished visual precedence during said travel period.

A computer program product, comprising a computer usable medium having a computer readable program code adapted to be executed to implement a method for determining priority of data in a database managed by a computing device, said data comprising a list of events, said computing device comprising a processing unit interconnected with a memory device and a display device, the method comprising:

• processing context data at said processing unit to determine a priority ranking for each of said items;
• and
• controlling respective areas of said display device to provide visual representations of each of said events in a calendar application, each respective area controlled according to said priority ranking.
