Abstract:
1. One or more computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed, perform a method for using scenario-solution related information to generate a customized user experience, the method comprising: receiving at a search engine a scenario-related query that is related to a specific problem that a user wishes to solve, wherein the scenario-related query is received from an end-user device, and further receiving metadata that corresponds to the user associated with said end-user device; mining solution-related information associated with at least one namespace or keyword to identify at least one user-executable scenario solution and metadata that corresponds to one or more users and one or more enablers that is relevant to the scenario-related query, wherein the at least one user-executable scenario solution represents a particular solution comprising a series of steps implemented by a workflow that corresponds with the specific problem the user wishes to solve, and further mining metadata that corresponds to at least one user group to determine if the user is a member of the at least one user group and to identify metadata associated with at least one additional member of the at least one user group; transmitting at least one suggestion based upon the scenario solution-related information determined to be relevant to the scenario-related query for presentation in association with the end-user device and further transmitting at least one suggestion based upon the metadata associated with the at least one additional member of the at least one user group for presentation in association with the end user device, if it is determined that the user is a member of the at least one user group; and storing at least one transmitted suggestion in association with the at least one namespace or keyword in association with the at least one user-executable scenario solution for mining in response to future queries.
