Solution Overview

Problem

In traditional client-server interactions, determining why certain interactions result in a desired outcome while others do not is challenging, as existing monitoring systems struggle to effectively analyze and correlate user interactions with application system outcomes.

Innovation Solution

A monitoring system that aggregates user interaction paths, calculates success factors by weighing prevalence and efficiency scores, and modifies the application system to increase the likelihood of desired outcomes by optimizing hardware resources, modifying interaction paths, or generating additional interactions based on correlation analysis.

AI summary

Users of client devices can take any number of actions using applications of an application system to achieve an outcome. A monitoring system aggregates the interactions into a user interaction path. Over time, the monitoring system generates a large number of user interaction paths. The monitoring system analyzes the user interaction paths for correlation between interactions and outcomes. The monitoring system can correlate user interaction paths to generated interactions of a system interaction path. The monitoring system determines a correlation between interactions and outcomes by calculating a success factor based on an efficiency score and a prevalence score. The success factor is a measure correlation between a particular interaction of the application system and an outcome, the prevalence score is a measure of how often a particular interaction occurs, and the efficiency score is a measure of the application system performance for a particular interaction.
