Abstract
A method for readjusting and interpolating a progress of an execution of multi-step program by a computing device involves a computation of a cumulative point baseline for each step of the multi-step program based on a completion time baseline for each step of the multi-step program, and a regulation of a progress indicator based on the cumulative point baseline and a completion time of each step of the multi-step program as executed by the computing device. The multi-program is an application program or operating program executable in steps by any type of computing device. The progress indicator can have any form, particularly the form of a progress bar.
