Inventors:

Jeffrey Gatt - Plymouth MI, US

International Classification:

G06F015/00

US Classification:

715517000

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for facilitating group management functionality comprises receiving a request for creating a group activity publication layout, accessing group activity publication layout information in response to receiving the request, and preparing a group activity publication layout including at least a portion of the publication content fields. The group activity publication layout information designates a plurality of publication content fields and content representation information corresponding to each one of the publication content fields. Preparing the group activity publication layout is performed at least partially dependent upon the representation information.

Abstract:

A computer-implemented method for facilitating group management functionality. The method comprises receiving information (i.e., group information) associated with a group of members participating in a group activity and with the group activity participated in by the members, creating a website structure instantiation including content comprising at least a portion of the group information, automatically updating the content of the website structure instantiation in response to corresponding portions of the group information being altered, and creating a group activity publication layout including content fields corresponding to at least a portion of the group information. Automatically updating the content of the website structure instantiation enables the website structure instantiation being dynamically maintained.

Abstract:

A group management system comprises a plurality of functionally modules. An information management module is configured for managing information (i.e., group information) associated with a group of members and a group activity participated in by the members. A group activity publishing module is configured for facilitating creation of a group activity publication layout. A communication module is configured for automatically creating and for dynamically maintaining a website structure instantiation. Facilitating creation of the group activity publication layout is performed dependent upon accessing at least a portion of the group information maintained by the information management module. Creating and maintaining the website structure instantiation are each performed dependent upon accessing at least a portion of the group information.
