| 1. A system that facilitates matching of digital information to a human perception system, comprising:
a triage component that determines characteristics of digital documents and processes the characteristics in accordance with
human perception data;
a viewing component that presents the digital documents according to the characteristic thereof in a focused mode on a first
viewing plane and a peripheral mode on a second viewing plane in accordance with human perception data;
a classifier that employs a probabilistic and/or statistical-based analysis to prognose or infer an action that a user desires
to be automatically performed, the classifier determines what documents to display in the focused mode versus the peripheral
mode, based at least in part on the document content, document type, number of peripheral displays, historical information
of the user, version and timestamp of the document, and audio input signals; and
wherein the focused mode of the first viewing plane corresponds to foveal/parafoveal vision attributes of the human perception
system and the peripheral mode of the second viewing plane corresponds to periphery attributes of the human perception system.
