The present invention relates to an electronic assistant. In one embodiment, a system for processing data on a computing device includes at least one extractor for extracting data from an email to produce extracted data, a user model for generating a high-level model of an email environment on the computing device, based on the extracted data, and at least one predictor for generating a prediction related to the email, based on the extracted data and on the high-level model. In another embodiment, a system for scheduling an event includes an extractor for extracting constraints from a request for the event, a user model for receiving and storing scheduling preferences from a user, and a predictor coupled to the extractor and to the user model, for generating a candidate schedule for the event in accordance with the constraints and the scheduling preferences.
