Systems and methods are provided for providing suggested files in relation to a calendar event. An electronic device receives an input related to the calendar event. Calendar event information, such as attendees, subject, and the date, are obtained. A search is performed for files related to the calendar event information. The related files can be ordered or ranked according to confidence values. The files are then displayed as suggestions. Links between suggested files and the calendar event are also formed.

Systems and methods for providing files in relation to a calendar event

The embodiments discussed herein describe an application device and method for calendar sharing and scheduling over a communication network. When a meeting is to be scheduled between two or more participants, the organizing participant enters an identification of the participants and requests a time suggestion. In response to the request, information relating to the availability and/or preferences of each participant is gathered from one or more databases and processed centrally in a remote server to determine a block of time during which all the participants are commonly free. The block of time is pushed to a user interface for display. If the organizing user selects the block of time, a meeting request may be sent to the participants to confirm the meeting.
