Abstract: The exemplary embodiments provide a computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for managing data. A graphical user interface is generated. The graphical user interface comprises a first selecting component for receiving a selection from a user of at least one attribute of a record from a set of records to be measured for relevancy, a second selecting component for receiving a selection from the user for a granularity of the at least one attribute to be measured for relevancy, and a displaying component for displaying a result to the user, wherein the result includes a visual representation of the relevancy of the at least one attribute selected by the user based on the granularity selected by the user.

Abstract: The exemplary embodiments provide a computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code for managing data. A user interface is generated. A user makes a selection at the user interface of at least one data type of a set of data types to be measured for relevancy. The set of data types comprise an age of data, modification of data, and access of data. The user also selects, at the user interface a granularity of the at least one data type to be measured. Data is collected from multiple sources. The collected data is analyzed to determine a relevance for the data type selected by the user based on the granularity selected by the user, which forms a result. The result is displayed to the user, by the user interface. The result includes a visual representation of the relevance of the data type selected by the user based on the granularity selected by the user.

Abstract: A business enterprise level information technology management system database implementation providing search results responsive to a user query that filters the extensive data that may be generated in the search result so that the user and his need for data is taken into account. An implementation determining the role of the requesting user relative to the selected activities, tracking the frequency of use of the requesting user's actions relative to the selected activities and presenting the search results to the requesting user with suggested user actions customized based upon said role of the user and prioritized based upon said frequency of use.

Abstract: A method that provides high-entropy password protection for electronic devices without requiring the presence of a full keyboard for entering characters or special character-recognition capability. To proffer a password to an electronic device, a user enters a sequence of standard characters on a screen. The device reads the entered sequence, and determines screen position information associated with the entered sequence, according to where the characters are entered on the screen. The entered sequence and the screen position information are compared with a predetermined sequence of characters and predetermined screen position information. If the entered sequence and screen position information match the predetermined sequence and predetermined screen position information, the device accepts the entered sequence as a valid password.

Abstract: An apparatus, program product, user interface control and method indicate, on a data set user interface control, the size of a subset of data relative to an overall data set accessible by the control. The data set user interface control may be implemented in much the same manner as a scroll bar, including a slider control that can be manipulated along a scroll region of the scroll bar to adjust the parameters of the subset of data accessible through the window. Further, the length of the slider may be set relative to that of the scroll region to represent the size of the current subset relative to the overall data set. The length of the slider may also be manipulated by a user to adjust the size of the current subset. While a data set user interface control may be implemented in a wide variety of additional environments, one particularly suitable use is in a client-server environment where a data set is retrieved in the form of subsets from an external information source accessible via a server computer.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for inline scrolling of related objects in a computer desktop environment. This scrolling is accomplished by utilizing a pointing device to activate an indicator actually imbedded into the relational information for the data being presented. The inline scrolling is designed to reduce the amount of space required on a display device to convey information to the user.
