Abstract

Methods and systems for causing a voice-activated electronic device to identify that a step of a series of steps can begin while a previous step is ongoing. In some embodiments, a first step will have a waiting period. The methods and systems, in some embodiments, identify this waiting period and determine that a second step can begin during the waiting period of step one. In some embodiments, nested sets of sequential steps are identified within the series of steps. The nested sets of sequential steps, in some embodiments, can be called upon.
