PIM-Mail

Abstract

Traditional email clients are built with a "one-touch" model in mind that assumes an immediate action is performed once an email is read. However, some emails require a follow-up action or users decide to read them later, so they cannot be discharged immediately. We present a prototype to keep track of these email-associated tasks that works as a plug-in inside a traditional email client. Besides providing flexible task management features, such as linking more than one message to a task to follow conversations, our system also supports exchanging tasks for collaborative work.

Intelligent Task Planning System Based on Methods of Fuzzy Natural Logic
