Optimizing a user interface for a computing device

1. A method for defining a display area configuration of a user device, comprising:

assigning a user a plurality of roles, wherein the user is only able to access one of the plurality of roles at a time;

associating a first set of resources, from a plurality of available resources, with a first role of the plurality of roles for inclusion in a first display area configuration;

associating a second set of resources from a plurality of available resources, with the second role of the plurality of roles for inclusion in a second display area configuration;

building a first profile from the first set of resources;

building a second profile from the second set of resources, wherein the second profile is in a same application as the first profile;

saving the first profile and the second profile;

building a first display area on a user device based on the first display area configuration in response to a first user request;

flagging a resource not currently included in the first display area configuration;

logging the number of times the user accesses the resource;

adding the resource to the first display area configuration when the number of times the user accesses the resource reaches a predefined threshold;

updating the first profile based on the resource added to the first display area configuration;

logging a period of time the user does not access the resource on the first display area configuration;

removing the resource from the first display area configuration when the period of time reaches a predetermined threshold;

detecting a click of a control key and a function key of a keyboard;

switching, from the first profile, to the second profile in response to the detection; and

building a second display area on the user device based on the second display area configuration in response to the switch.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the display area is a computer desktop.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining whether a selected resource is not currently included in a separate profile; and

notifying the user that the selected resource cannot be added to the display area configuration.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprises linking the profile to at least one calendar event.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the building occurs in response to an occurrence of the at least one calendar event.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein a service solution provider provides a computer infrastructure that performs the method for one or more consumers.

7. A system for defining a display area configuration of a user device, comprising:

a bus;

a processor coupled to the bus; and

a memory medium coupled to the bus, the memory medium comprising instructions to:

assign a user a plurality of roles, wherein the user is only able to access one of the plurality of roles at a time;

associate a first set of resources, from a plurality of available resources, with a first role of the plurality of roles for inclusion in a first display area configuration;

associate a second set of resources from a plurality of available resources, with the second role of the plurality of roles for inclusion in a second display area configuration;

build a first profile from the first set of resources;

build a second profile from the second set of resources, wherein the second profile is in a same application as the first profile;

save the first profile and the second profile;

build a first display area on a user device based on the first display area configuration in response to a first user request;

flag a resource not currently included in the first display area configuration;

log the number of times the user accesses the resource;

add the resource to the first display area configuration when the number of times the user accesses the resource reaches a predefined threshold;

update the first profile based on the resource added to the first display area configuration;

log a period of time the user does not access the resource on the first display area configuration;

remove the resource from the first display area configuration when the period of time reaches a predetermined threshold;

detect a click of a control key and a function key of a keyboard;

switch, from the first profile, to the second profile in response to the detection; and

build a second display area on the user device based on the second display area configuration in response to the switch.

8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the display area is a computer desktop.

9. The system of claim 7 , the memory medium further comprising instructions to:

determine whether a selected resource is not currently included in a separate profile; and

notify the user that the selected resource cannot be added to the display area configuration.

10. The system of claim 7 , the memory medium further comprising instructions to:

link the profile to at least one calendar event; and

wherein the building occurs in response to an occurrence of the at least one calendar event.

11. A computer program product for defining a display area configuration of a user device, the computer program product comprising a computer readable hardware storage device, wherein the computer readable hardware storage device excludes a signal per se, and wherein the computer program product comprises program instructions stored on the computer readable hardware storage device, to:

assign a user a plurality of roles, wherein the user is only able to access one of the plurality of roles at a time;

associate a first set of resources, from a plurality of available resources, with a first role of the plurality of roles for inclusion in a first display area configuration;

associate a second set of resources from a plurality of available resources, with the second role of the plurality of roles for inclusion in a second display area configuration;

build a first profile from the first set of resources;

build a second profile from the second set of resources, wherein the second profile is in a same application as the first profile;

save the first profile and the second profile;

build a first display area on a user device based on the first display area configuration in response to a first user request;

flag a resource not currently included in the first display area configuration;

log the number of times the user accesses the resource;

add the resource to the first display area configuration when the number of times the user accesses the resource reaches a predefined threshold;

update the first profile based on the resource added to the first display area configuration;

log a period of time the user does not access the resource on the first display area configuration;

remove the resource from the first display area configuration when the period of time reaches a predetermined threshold;

detect a click of a control key and a function key of a keyboard;

switch, from the first profile, to the second profile in response to the detection; and

build a second display area on the user device based on the second display area configuration in response to the switch.

12. The computer program product of claim 11 , wherein the display area is a computer desktop.

13. The computer program product of claim 11 , further comprising program instructions stored on the computer readable hardware storage device to:

determine whether a selected resource is not currently included in a separate profile; and

notify the user that the selected resource cannot be added to the display area configuration.

14. The computer program product of claim 11 , further comprising program instructions stored on the computer readable hardware storage device to:

link the profile to at least one calendar event; and

wherein the building occurs in response to an occurrence of the at least one calendar event.
