Abstract

Disclosed in some examples, are methods, systems (a “performance system”), and machine readable mediums which provide information about an organization's performance in the hierarchical content distribution system using one or more Graphical User Interfaces (GUI)s. The system produces and displays a health score which quantifies the performance of the organization's outreach efforts through the hierarchical content distribution network. The health score may be created based upon a plurality of subscores.

Claims (50)

1. A method comprising:

using one or more computer processors:

providing a hierarchical electronic content distribution system for an organization including providing a first set of one or more graphical user interfaces to facilitate creation of a plurality of hierarchical content networks;

analyzing the plurality of hierarchical content networks to determine a first and second set of measurements of an organization's content sharing performance using the hierarchical electronic content distribution system, the second set of measurements measuring different attributes of the organization's content sharing performance than the first set of measurements;

calculating a first subscore from the first set of measurements, wherein the first subscore is based on a total number of users which received content corresponding to one of the plurality of hierarchical content networks over a predetermined period of time;

calculating a second subscore from the second set of measurements, wherein the second subscore is based on a total number of users which shared content corresponding to one of the plurality of hierarchical content networks over the predetermined period of time;

calculating a health score based upon the first and second subscores, wherein the health score indicates an outreach performance of the organization for using the hierarchical electronic content distribution system;

creating a second set of one or more GUIs, one or more of the GUIs in the second set including the first subscore, the second subscore, and the health score; and

delivering at least one GUI in the second set of GUIs, over a network, to a user.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein calculating the health score based upon the first and second subscores comprises calculating a weighted sum of the first and second subscores.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein calculating the first subscore from the first set of measurements comprises calculating a weighted sum of the first set of measurements.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving an input from a user selecting the first subscore; and

responsive to receiving the input from the user, displaying the first set of measurements.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

displaying a set of recommendations for improving one or more of the first set of measurements.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first subscore indicates an organizational effectiveness at creating the plurality of hierarchical content networks.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the second subscore indicates an effectiveness of content sent to other users by the organization through the plurality of hierarchical content networks.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising calculating a third subscore, the third. subscore indicating a participating level of employees of the organization, the calculating the health score comprising calculating a weighted sum of the first, second, and third subscores.

9. A system comprising:

a processor;

memory comprising instructions, which when performed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations to:

provide a hierarchical electronic content distribution system for an organization including providing a first set of one or more graphical user interfaces to facilitate creation of a plurality of hierarchical content networks;

analyze the plurality of hierarchical content networks to determine a first and second set of measurements of an organization's content sharing performance using the hierarchical electronic content distribution system, the second set of measurements measuring different attributes of the organization's content sharing performance than the first set of measurements;

calculate a first subscore from the first set of measurements, wherein the first subscore is based on a total number of users which received content corresponding to one of the plurality of hierarchical content networks over a predetermined period of time;

calculate a second subscore from the second set of measurements, wherein the second subscore is based on a total number of users which shared content corresponding to one of the plurality of hierarchical content networks over the predetermined period of time;

calculate a health score based upon the first and second subscores, wherein the health score indicates an outreach performance of the organization for using the hierarchical electronic content distribution system;

create a second set of one or more GUIs, one or more of the GUIs in the second set including the first subscore, the second subscore, and the health score; and

deliver at least one GUI in the second set of GUIs, over a network, to a user.

10. The system of claim 9 , wherein the operations to calculate the health score based upon the first and second subscores comprises operations to calculate a weighted sum of the first and second subscores.

11. The system of claim 9 , wherein the operations to calculate the first subscore from the first set of measurements comprises operations to calculate a weighted sum of the first set of measurements.

12. The system of claim 9 , wherein the instructions comprise instructions to cause the processor to perform operations to:

receive an input from a user selecting the first subscore; and

responsive to receiving the input from the user, di splay the first set of measurements.

13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the instructions comprise instructions to cause the processor to perform operations to:

display a set of recommendations for improving one or more of the first set of measurements.

14. The system of claim 9 , wherein the instructions comprise instructions to cause the processor to perform operations to: calculate a third subscore, the third subscore indicating a participating level of employees of the organization, the operations of calculating the health score comprising operations to calculate a weighted sum of the first, second, and third subscores.

15. A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising instructions, which when performed by a machine, cause the machine to perform operations comprising:

providing a hierarchical electronic content distribution system for an organization including providing a first set of one or more graphical user interfaces to facilitate creation of a plurality of hierarchical content networks;

analyzing the plurality of hierarchical content networks to determine a first and second set of measurements of an organization's content sharing performance using the hierarchical electronic content distribution system, the second set of measurements measuring different attributes of the organization's content sharing performance than the first set of measurements;

calculating a first subscore from the first set of measurements, wherein the first subscore is based on a total number of users which received content corresponding to one of the plurality of hierarchical content networks over a predetermined period of time;

calculating a second subscore from the second set of measurements, wherein the second subscore is based on a total number of users which shared content corresponding to one of the plurality of hierarchical content networks over the predetermined period of time;

calculating a health score based upon the first and second subscores, wherein the health score indicates an outreach performance of the organization for using the hierarchical electronic content distribution system;

creating a second set of one or more GUIs, one or more of the GUIs in the second set including the first subscore, the second subscore, and the health score; and

delivering at least one GUI in the second set of GUIs, over a network, to a user.

16. The machine-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations of calculating the health score based upon the first and second subscores comprises the operations of calculating a weighted sum of the first and second subscores.

17. The machine-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations of calculating the first subscore from the first set of measurements comprises the operations of calculating a weighted sum of the first set of measurements.

18. The machine-readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the operations further comprise:

receiving an input from a user selecting the first subscore; and

responsive to receiving the input from the user, displaying the first set of measurements.
