ADAPTIVE MESSAGE RETENTION TIME BASED ON USER INTERACTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17809072 titled 'ADAPTIVE MESSAGE RETENTION TIME BASED ON USER INTERACTION

Simplified Explanation

The present invention is a computer system and method for dynamically adjusting message retention times in a messaging system. It involves receiving and storing messages, determining interactions with the stored messages, and calculating a retention score for each message based on the type and frequency of interactions. Messages with a retention score below a predetermined threshold are then deleted.

  • Computer-implemented method for dynamically adjusting message retention times in a messaging system
  • Receive and store a plurality of messages in a storage system
  • Continuously determine interactions with the stored messages
  • Calculate a retention score for selected messages based on weighted interaction type count values
  • Delete messages with a retention score below a predetermined threshold

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Messaging systems and platforms
  • Email servers and clients
  • Social media platforms
  • Chat applications

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient management of message storage
  • Reducing clutter and unnecessary data in messaging systems
  • Improving system performance and response time

Benefits of this technology:

  • Optimize storage space by deleting low-value messages
  • Improve user experience by reducing clutter and improving system performance
  • Enhance system efficiency by dynamically adjusting retention times based on user interactions


Original Abstract Submitted

Embodiments of the present invention provide computer-implemented methods, computer program products, and computer systems. Specifically, embodiments of the present invention can dynamically adjust individual message retention times in a messaging system is disclosed. Embodiments of the present invention can then receive a plurality of messages, store the plurality of messages in a storage system, determine continuously, by the messaging system, interactions with messages stored by the messaging system, and determine dynamically, by the messaging system, a retention score value for selected messages based on a sum of weighted interactions type count values of the determined interactions. Finally, embodiments of the present invention can delete by the messaging system, messages for which the retention score value is below a predetermined retention threshold value.
