Zusammenfassung:An icon ordering unit determines an icon order of a set of icons in a graphical user interface. The icon ordering unit identifies a set of icons from a plurality of icons that satisfy a filtering rule and further determines icon ordering parameters that satisfy a parameter icon ordering rule. The icon ordering unit determines a conversion value from a value of each of the icon ordering parameters according to a set of one or more conversion rules. The icon ordering unit normalizes each of the conversion values to generate normalized values of the icon ordering parameters. For each of the set of icons, the icon ordering unit aggregates the normalized values of the icon ordering parameters for the icon to generate an aggregate normalized value. The icon ordering unit determines an order for displaying the set of icons based, at least in part, on the aggregate normalized values.
