PROCESSOR SYSTEM COMPRISING A PROCESSOR AND A MEMORY FIELD FOR CONTAINING A COMPUTER INTERFACE

This Study relates to a processor system comprising:

a processor and a memory field for containing a computer interface having a number of graphic elements each representing a function,

an element being directly displayed on a screen in case this element is entirely displayed all the time and independently of whether or not this element has been activated, and

an element being selectively displayable on the screen in case this element is not entirely displayed all the time but is only entirely displayed after this element has been activated.

The processor system being adapted for displaying at least one element directly on screen, characterized in the processor system being adapted for allocating a first element parameter to a first element, the first element parameter being a function of a number of times this first element has been activated.

Prior art focused on computer software application that has a menu or other computer user interface that includes a Most Frequently Used list of items (media, applications, functionality) and the list order and/or contents changes in response to use metrics of the media/application/functionality may be of interest.  In some cases, prior art indicating an interactive Most Frequently Used list of menu items, e.g., the user may use the list to select that media/application/functionality, may be of interest.
