Abstract
A device that orders items for switching may include a processor circuit. The processor circuit may be configured to identify items that are available for switching, wherein each of the items is associated with a first attribute and a second attribute. The processor circuit may be further configured to order the items based at least in part on the first attributes of the items. The processor circuit may be further configured to determine a subset of the items for display, wherein the subset includes a first number of the ordered items. The processor circuit may be further configured to order the subset of the items based at least on the second attributes of the items. The processor circuit may be further configured to display ordered representations corresponding to the ordered subset of the items for switching. The ordered representations may remain unchanged after switching to an item of the subset.
