20140297631 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING SOCIAL NETWORK ANALYTICS - A system, device, and method may include a network interface device configured to be communicatively coupled to a user interface. An electronic data storage may be configured to store social network data related to users having accessed a social network content item A processor, coupled to the network interface device and the electronic data storage, may be configured to identify a relationship among at least some of the users, determine a relevance of the relationship to a member of the social network associated with the social network content item based, at least in part, on a social network profile of the member and social network profiles of the users, and cause the network interface device to display, on the user interface, information related to the relationship on the user interface based, at least in part, on the relevance. | 10-02-2014 |
20140297749 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR RECOMMENDING ACTIONS ON A SOCIAL NETWORK - A device, system, and method may include an electronic data storage configured to store social network data related to use of the social network by users. A processor, coupled to the electronic data storage, may be configured to determine a recommended action that a member of the social network may take to increase a likelihood of at least one of the uses of the social network to access a social network content item related to the member and determine an estimated statistical change in a rate at which the users may access the social network content item if the recommended action were implemented by the member based, at least in part, on the social network data stored in the electronic data storage | 10-02-2014 |
20140298204 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ITERATIVELY UPDATING CHARACTERISTICS IN A SOCIAL NETWORK - A device, system, and method may include a network interface device configured to be coupled to a user interface. An electronic data storage may be configured to store social network data. A processor, coupled to the network interface device and the electronic data storage, may be configured to cause the network interface device to display, on the user interface, social network content items, cause the network interface device to display, on the user interface, recommended actions related to the social network and a member of the social network associated with the user interface, the recommended actions being implementable based on a user input via the user interface, the recommended actions being displayed based on at least one display characteristic, and iteratively update the display characteristic based, at least in part, on an implementation, by the user, of at least one of the recommended actions. | 10-02-2014 |
20140358607 | TEAM MEMBER RECOMMENDATION SYSTEM - Techniques for discovering and recruiting team members for a team are described. According to various embodiments, a user request to identify one or more potential team members of a team is received, the user request including a user specification of a specific job title Skill mapping information identifying various sample skills associated with various sample job titles is accessed, and one or more specific skills associated with the specific job title is determined based on the skill mapping information. Thereafter, candidate team members of the team are identified from among members of a social network service having one or more of the specific skills. | 12-04-2014 |

20130254735 | USER EXPERIENCE MATURITY LEVEL ASSESSMENT - The present subject matter provides a system and a method for assessing user experience maturity (UXM) level for a software product. The method includes defining a set of hierarchical UXM levels that may be associated with one or more user experience (UX) parameters. Each of the one or more UX parameters may be assigned a weight based on relevance of the each of the one or more UX parameters. In addition, the method may include determining ratings for the each of the one or more UX parameters and evaluating a UXM score of the software product based on the ratings. Moreover, the method may include categorizing the software product in one of the hierarchical UXM levels based on the UXM score of the software product. The software product may be categorized if the UXM score is greater than a pre-defined threshold value for that hierarchical UXM level. | 09-26-2013 |
20150040043 | Visual Design Evaluation - The present subject matter relates to evaluation of a visual design of a user interface (UI). The method comprises receiving, from at least one reviewer, a response to a plurality of questions associated with a plurality of dimensions. The plurality of dimensions is indicative of criteria for assessment of the visual design of the UI. Further, an aggregate visual design quality index (VDI | 02-05-2015 |
20150363090 | USER INTERFACE DESIGNING - A method for designing a user interface (UI) for an application includes receiving, from a user, a first response comprising user selected first answers and a second response comprising user selected second answers, to pre-defined questions. The method includes assigning significance to interface (STI) weightage to each user selected first answer with respect to pre-defined user experience parameters and assigning a significance to business (STB) weightage to each user selected second answer. Also, the method includes computing total actual effective weightage for each pre-defined user experience parameter based on STI weightages of user selected first answers and STB weightages of user selected second answers. The method further includes calculating total maximum effective weightage for each pre-defined user experience parameter based on maximum STI weightage and maximum STB weightage for each pre-defined question. Furthermore, the method includes determining applicability index for each pre-defined user experience parameter for designing the UI. | 12-17-2015 |
