Problems solved by technology

[0005] Usually, however, groupware system users need to carefully maintain their personal contact lists in order to access correct and up-to-date information in a satisfactory manner, thus requiring considerable work
[0006] Prior art systems that allow for the (automatic) collection of "known contacts" by name or email address do not provide advanced search functionality such as by category of groupware users, thus making it difficult to identify people when the person's name is not known. Difficulty finding experts on specific topics
Furthermore, prior art systems that allow the automatic import of contact information from corporate user directories do not provide complete and correct contact data about users in a satisfactory manner, since corporate directories are not represented as characterized by complex matrix organizations Rapidly changing business relationships and collaborative interactions of

Embodiment Construction

[0045] Figure 1 shows a schematic system overview of an embodiment of the invention. The groupware system 1 includes a groupware server computer 2 and groupware client computers 11 and 11'. Groupware server computer 2 is coupled to, or includes, messaging system database 9 and contact information repository 10 . The groupware server computer 2 may be coupled to other groupware systems 1 ′, 1 ″ or 1 ″, and these other groupware systems may also be embodiments of the present invention or different types of groupware systems.

[0046] The groupware server computer 2 includes a messaging module 4 that transmits electronic messages, such as e-mails or instant messages, from sender to recipient, e.g. two groupware systems each at one of the groupware clients 11 and 11' user. Furthermore, the groupware server computer 2 contains a presence management module 5 which monitors the presence status of the groupware system users at the system.

[0047] The groupware server also contains...

Abstract

The present invention provides a groupware system and method for processing the linkman data thereof. The groupware computer system in the present invention includes: a groupware server, a groupware client machine coupled to said server through the network, a linkman information memory bank collocated for storing the linkman information of the user in the personal linkman list relevant to each user, an message receiving and sending system database collocated to storing the statistical information about the exchange of the message, a linkman massage module coupled to said linkman information memory bank and collocated to establish, amend and search linkman data of users, and the present invention further includes the functional unit for determining linkman information (ADCI) automatically and a groupware server computer, a groupware client machine computer, a method and data processing program, a computer program product and the computer data signals thereof.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a groupware computer system comprising a groupware server, a groupware client coupled to the server through a network, contact information configured to store contact data for a user in a personal contact list associated with each user a repository, a messaging system database configured to store statistical information about the exchange of messages, a contact management module coupled to the contact information repository and configured to create, modify, and retrieve a user's contact data, and a group A software server computer, a groupware client computer, a method, a data processing program, a computer program product and computer data signals therefor. Background technique [0002] Prior art groupware systems facilitate group collaboration of collaborators of multiple computer users, for example by enabling users to exchange electronic messages such as emails or instant messages. Some groupware systems provide fu...
