Embodiment Construction

[0016] As briefly described above, cross-platform contact information merging and duplication can be resolved by creating a contact object for each contact from the data store associated with the user, and using, for example, weighted communication system types or sorted contact information types The aggregation method of the same contact entity aggregates multiple contact objects into a contact model. In the following detailed description, reference is made to the accompanying drawings which form a part hereof, and which show by way of illustration specific embodiments or examples. Aspects may be combined, other aspects may be utilized, and structural changes may be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. The following detailed description is therefore not intended to be taken in a limiting sense, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.

[0017] Although embodiments have been described in the general c...

Abstract

The invention discloses the merging and duplication solution of contact information. By using contact objects and aggregating contact objects into contact models, cross-platform contact information merging and duplication can be solved. Contact data can be obtained from internal and / or external data stores and a contact object can be created for each contact from each contact store. A contact model is created for each contact entity by aggregating contact data from contact objects across multiple contact stores. Aggregation may include iterative resolution through weighting of communication system types, ranking of contact information types, and similar methods. The contact model can be dynamically updated based on changes to the contact object.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to contact information technology, in particular to a solution for merging and duplication of contact information. Background technique [0002] Modern communication systems enable users to have multiple identities in various systems such as corporate email, personal email, social network communication, and so on. Each of these systems can generate contact lists based on automated processing of exchanged information and / or manual entry. The structure and content of contact information in different communication systems differ based on their underlying structure. Therefore, a user may have multiple pieces of contact information for the same contact, and these multiple pieces of contact information are stored in respective communication systems associated with them. [0003] Communication applications are increasingly providing users with access to a variety of communication systems. [0004] For example, an email exchange applic...
