Abstract
A method is provided to identify availability of a user and to prompt the user about a survey which is due on the user. The identification of availability is based on defined behavior patterns of the user. The survey is split into small components and provided to the user via multiple messaging applications.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- dividing a survey into a set of components, each component of the set of components being assigned a responding duration;
- identifying a target user to receive the survey;
- determining a behavior pattern of the target user;
- identifying an availability timeframe of the target user based on the behavior pattern;
- generating a custom survey from a plurality of components having a combined duration that is less than or equal to the availability timeframe;
- and
- providing the custom survey to the target user via a registered messaging account.

A computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having a set of instructions stored therein which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to perform a survey management by:
- dividing a survey into a set of components, each component of the set of components being assigned a responding duration;
- identifying a target user to receive the survey;
- determining a behavior pattern of the target user;
- identifying an availability timeframe of the target user based on the behavior pattern;
- generating a custom survey from a plurality of components having a combined duration that is less than or equal to the availability timeframe;
- and
- providing the custom survey to the target user via a registered messaging account.

A computer system comprising:
- a processor(s) set;
- and
- a computer readable storage medium;
- wherein:
- the processor set is structured, located, connected, and/or programmed to run program instructions stored on the computer readable storage medium;
- and
- the program instructions which, when executed by the processor set, cause the processor set to perform a survey management by:
- dividing a survey into a set of components, each component of the set of components being assigned a responding duration;
- identifying a target user to receive the survey;
- determining a behavior pattern of the target user;
- identifying an availability timeframe of the target user based on the behavior pattern;
- generating a custom survey from a plurality of components having a combined duration that is less than or equal to the availability timeframe;
- and
