Abstract: Methods of identifying key entities in a network, building a subgraph, or invisible college, of these key entities, segmenting the subgraph of key entities into specific sub-groups based upon their roles in the network, identifying bridge builders between sub-groups, identifying work-circles of frequently collaborative entities, and identifying institutions, which are centers of significance, are disclosed. These techniques can be used as an alternative to the survey method for finding key opinion leaders.

Abstract: To determine an association between elements associated with a unified display on a screen, a request associated with the unified display is received from a browser, and a response to the request is identified as a first element associated with the unified display. A second element is identified as being spawned from the first element, if a parameter associated with the first element, which can be an event, a source, or both, is determined to be associated with the second element also. In that case, the second element is determined to be associated with the first element via the parameter.

Abstract: A keyed join is used in the processing of streaming data to streamline processing to provide higher throughput and decreased use of resources. The most recent event for each unique replacement key value(s) is maintained substituting older events with the same key. An incoming event is joined with the data received from one or more other data sources, and the correlations are output.

Abstract: A remoting client and a remoting server are described. In one embodiment, the remoting client has a client remote access application, a client invoker, a marshaller, and an unmarhaller. The client remote access application provides a version indicator of the client remote access application and receives a version indicator of a server remote access application. The client invoker generates an invocation request including the version indicator of the client remote access application. The client remote access application determines a compatible version between the client remote access application and the server remote access application based on the version indicator of the client remote access application and the version indicator of the server remote access application.

Abstract: According to a computer-implemented method, a scheduling request is received to schedule a user in a shared calendar system as a participant in a meeting to occur on a specified date. Based on a predefined meeting policy, a determination is made of a maximum permissible quantity of meetings for the user to participate in during a predefined time period that includes the specified date. A quantity of meetings in the shared calendar system that are already scheduled for the user to occur within the predefined time period is compared to the maximum permissible quantity of meetings for the user. Based on the comparing indicating that the quantity of meetings already scheduled is greater than or equal to the maximum permissible quantity of meetings, a notification is transmitted to the user to indicate that that approval of the scheduling request would violate the predefined meeting policy.

Also provided are systems for arranging peripherals within one or more I/O directors, which are connected to the servers over an Ethernet network. Such arrangement allows sharing the same resource among multiple servers.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable media for policy enforcement correlation are disclosed. According to one aspect, a method for policy enforcement correlation includes, at a policy and charging rules function (PCRF) node: receiving, from a first network node, first policy and charging related information associated with a first user of a telecommunication network; receiving, from a second network node, second policy and charging related information; correlating the first and second policy and charging related information; and, in response to correlating the first and second policy and charging information, issuing a policy and charging control (PCC)-related instruction. In one embodiment, the PCC-related instruction may be sent to the first network node, the second network node, a third network node, or some combination of the above.

Abstract: A method and system for managing download of a file. In response to a request from a client computer to establish a session to download the file beginning at a specified location after a start of the file, an estimated length of a portion of the file beginning at the specified location is estimated, a time window for enabling the client computer to avoid a redundant download of a portion of the file by terminating the session within the time window is computed, and the download of the file is suspended for the time window. If the session is not terminated within the time window, then download of the file is automatically resumed following the length in further response to the request. If the session is terminated within the time window, then download of the file is not automatically resumed following the length in further response to the request.

Abstract: In general, webpage or other resource accesses by client systems may be recorded, and those accesses may be analyzed to develop audience measurement reports. At times, it may be desirable to segment those reports according to classes of client systems (e.g., work vs. home client systems). A given client system can be classed into one of the reporting classes based on one or more classes of network service providers that provide the client with access to a network. The recorded resource accesses and classes of the client systems can then be used to generate audience measurement reports that are segmented according to one or more of the client system classes.

Abstract: Applications are provided to communication devices provide flexible operation between default modes of operation and an expanded mode of operation in which both communication devices share capabilities. A purchase order is created for a plurality of communication devices. A determination is made as to whether a collaboration feature is enabled at each device. The collaboration feature being enabled at each device results in additional revenue to the ordering process. If collaboration is enabled at both devices at 306, 312, and then collaboration operation are enabled 316 which allows for predetermined operating features to be registered and additional revenue applied. The communication devices 102, 104 are then automatically linked (via information sharing link 120 using linkage application 140) to share capabilities of the registered features at 320. The resulting order comprises a plurality of communication devices that provided an expanded mode of operation when operating together.
