Summary:A method for providing a conditional scored list of applications for use in recommending applications includes storing on a cloud computing service a conditional probability table across a set of available applications provided by the cloud computing service. The cloud computing service receives a request to provide a scored list of applications for a user, retrieves a set of user-installed applications for the user, and calculates a total conditional probability for each application in the set of available applications. The cloud computing service then constructs the scored list of applications from the set of available applications, where a score of each application is its corresponding total conditional probability, and outputs the scored list of applications.
