More Information
Summary:Aspects of the present disclosure relate to task modification and optimization. In examples, a user provides an indication of a task goal. A set of candidate task templates are identified based on the task goal. The user specifies optimization criteria, and the set of candidate task templates is ranked based on the optimization criteria. Accordingly, at least a part of the ranked set is presented to the user, from which the user selects a task template. In other examples, an optimal task template is determined automatically. In some instances, a user selects a subtask of an existing task to optimize in view of optimization criteria. Accordingly, a set of candidate subtasks is identified. The set of candidate subtasks is ranked according to the optimization criteria, after which a user may select one or more replacement subtasks. As a result, subtasks of the task are replaced according to the selected subtask.
