Abstract

The claimed invention enables digital asset management that is responsive to a user's interactions with digital assets (32). Based on the user's interaction, the invention generates a ranking of the digital assets that is intended to reflect the value of the digital assets to the user. The ranking (36) is based in part on the access frequency and recency, and the number and types of uses of the digital assets. An access hierarchy is derived from the ranking that stores the digital assets so that the higher ranked digital assets are more easily accessed than the lower ranked digital assets. The digital assets can include any of digital images, audio files, and Uniform Resource Locators. The invention can also distinguish between different types of uses so that some types of uses imbue an asset with greater value than others. The types of uses include passive viewing or playback, file sharing, transport, and editing. The invention also allows the user to assign subjective values to each digital asset that can be factored into the ranking independently of usage patterns. A volatility-dampening attribute is provided to moderate volatility in the access hierarchy.

2. The method of Claim 1 , wherein said ranking step is based on at least one of the following: recency of use, frequency of use, and number of uses of said digital assets.
3. The method of Claim 2, wherein said ranking step further comprises the step of: applying a user-assigned value when generating said access hierarchy.
4. The method of Claim 1 , further comprising the steps of: assigning scores to each of said digital assets based on said use of said digital assets; re-ranking said digital assets only if a score of a first digital asset exceeds a score of a second previously higher ranked digital asset by a predetermined threshold. 31
5. The method of Claim 1 , wherein said monitoring step comprises the step of monitoring use of digital images.
6. The method of Claim 5, further comprising the step of: assigning scores for viewing, editing, and transmitting or receiving a digital image, said ranking step comprising the step of processing at least one of said assigned scores.
7. The method of Claim 1 , wherein said monitoring step includes monitoring digitized audio files, the method further comprising the step of assigning scores to playing, editing and transmitting or receiving said audio files, said ranking step including processing said scores.
8. The method of Claim 1 , wherein said monitoring step comprises the step of: monitoring a Web browser's navigation history.
9. The method of Claim 8, further comprising the step of: assigning a first score to a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) based on the length of time spent by said user visiting a Web page represented by said URL and a second score if said user downloads digital information from a Web site associated with said URL: said ranking step further comprising the step of processing at least one of said first and said second scores.
10. The method of Claim 8, further comprising the steps of: assigning cumulative scores to a plurality of URL's activated by said user; re-ranking said plurality of URL's only if a cumulative score assigned to a first URL exceeds a cumulative score assigned to a second previously higher ranked URL by a predetermined threshold.
11. The method of Claim 1 , further comprising the step of: sharing said access hierarchy with a plurality of networked devices.
12. A system for managing a plurality of digital assets, comprising: a memory for storing a plurality of digital assets; a processor in communication with said memory for manipulating said plurality of digital assets; a ranking module in communication with said processor and said memory to rank said digital assets based on manipulation of said digital assets by a user; and means for hierarchically storing said ranked digital assets in said memory based on said rank of said digital assets, whereby higher ranked digital assets more easily accessed from said memory by said user than lower ranked digital assets.
13. The system of Claim 12, wherein said digital assets are any of digital images and digital audio files. 33
14. The system of Claim 13, wherein said ranking module is in communication with said processor to assign a first score to a first digital image when said processor accesses said first digital image for viewing and to assign a second score to a second digital image if said processor accesses said second digital image for editing.
15. The system of Claim 12, wherein said ranking module ranks said digital assets at least in part based on user-assigned values.
16. The system of Claim 12, wherein said ranking module comprises an inertia algorithm that prevents a re-ranking of said digital assets unless a score of a first digital asset exceeds a score of a second previously higher ranked digital asset by a predetermined threshold.
17. The system of Claim 12, wherein said ranking module comprises an input for receiving data representative of use of said digital assets including any of frequency of use, recency of use, and number of uses of said digital assets, said ranking module being configured to factor in said data representative of said use.
18. The system of Claim 12, wherein said digital assets stored in said memory comprise digital images, said ranking module being configured to use scores assigned to said digital images to calculate a ranking of said digital images, said scores being based on specific user manipulations of said digital images, comprise any of editing, viewing, and transmitting or receiving of said digital images. 34
19. The system of Claim 12, wherein said digital assets stored in said memory comprise URL's.
20. The system of Claim 19, wherein said ranking module comprise an inertia algorithm that prevents a re-ranking of said URL's unless a score of at least one of said URL's exceeds a score of another of said URL's by a predetermined threshold.
21. The system of Claim 13, wherein said ranking module is in communication with said processor to assign a first score to a first digital audio file when said processor accesses said first digital audio file for playback and to assign a second score to a second audio file if said processor accesses said second digital audio file for editing.
22. A method for managing storage of, and access to URL's, comprising the steps of: creating a navigation history during a first browsing session at a first device located on a network, wherein said navigation history comprises any of URL's activated and URL access frequency, and further comprises any of a total number of visits, a duration of each of said visits, an amount of time since a most recent of said visits, a record of a site corresponding to an URL from which data is downloaded, a record of whether data downloaded from a site corresponding to an URL is edited by a user, and a record of whether data downloaded from a site corresponding to an URL is shared by said user; 35 storing said navigation history at a location accessible to a plurality of networked devices; initiating a second browsing session at a second device located on said network; and accessing said navigation history at said second device for use during said second browsing session.
23. The method of Claim 22, further comprising the steps of: ranking said URL's according to the extent said URL's are used; and generating an access hierarchy based on said ranking step so that
URL's that are more highly ranked are more easily accessed than lower ranked URL's.
24. The method of Claim 23, further comprising the steps of: assigning scores to said URL's based on a usage URL usage pattern of said URL's; and re-ranking said URL's only if a score of at least one URL exceeds a score of another previously higher ranked URL by a predetermined threshold.
