Abstract

Various embodiments relate generally to a system, a device and a method provide for a modification of direction of travel based on, for example, proximity thresholds and adaptive alerts specifying an action item. In one or more embodiments, a method can include receiving at a device action alert data including data representing a destination at which an action item resides and data representing an event time frame during which the action item is actionable. Also, the method can include determining at a processor data representing a proximity threshold value relative to a detected location data as a function of at least a rate of travel to form a subset of proximity threshold data specifying the proximity threshold value under which generation of an adaptive alert is enabled. The method can facilitate a change in travel from a first path segment to a second path segment to the destination.
