Abstract: A solution is proposed for controlling access to data that are broadcast over a telecommunication medium. A corresponding method comprises validating by a plurality of validator devices an access request that is submitted by an access device for accessing the data. The validator devices update a blockchain by adding a new block comprising an indication of the access request in response to a positive result of its validation. A provider system transmits cryptographic information for decrypting the data to the access device in response to the new block. A corresponding method for broadcasting data by a provider system and a corresponding method for accessing broadcast data by an access device are proposed. Corresponding computer programs and computer program products for performing the methods are also proposed. Moreover, corresponding structure, provider system and access device are proposed.

Abstract: In several aspects for creating a minute of a teleconference from a record thereof, a processor classifies portions of the record as relevant or non-relevant according to corresponding relevance indicators with respect to a topic of the teleconference. A processor removes the non-relevant portions from the record. A processor classifies pairs of relevant portions as similar or non-similar according to corresponding similarity indicators. A processor removes one of the relevant portions of each similar pair of relevant portions from the minute.

Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method aggregate electronic response messages. A communication server receives a request message from a sender addressed to a plurality of users. The request message contains within it an aggregation indicator indicating that responses to the request message are to be aggregated. A response address is modified within the request message directing a response message from a user to go to a message aggregation server, and the modified message is sent to each of the plurality of users.

Abstract: An approach is provided that transmit a first set survey questions to a user with each of the first set questions corresponding to a primary survey goal. Survey answers are then received from the user. A cognitive system is then used to determining an affinity level between the user and the primary survey goal. If the affinity level reaches a threshold, then a second set of questions is transmitted to the user with these questions also corresponding to the primary survey goal. However, if the first affinity level fails to reach the threshold, then the second set of questions are based on a secondary survey goal and these questions are transmitted to the user.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided to implement a smart device screen management mechanism for facilitating single-hand wide-screen management of the smart device. The mechanism identifies a movement indicated by a user in proximity of a screen of the smart device and determines whether the movement indicates a selection of an action item outside a maximum reach of the user when the user is operating the smart device with a single hand. Responsive to the movement indicating a selection of an action item outside the maximum reach of the user, the mechanism identifies a direction of the movement indicated by the user in proximity of the screen of the smart device and identifies a subset action items that are in the direction of the movement and outside the maximum reach. The mechanism then presents the subset of action items in a redrawn user interface within the maximum reach of the user.

Abstract: Access is temporarily allowed to selected enterprise resources. A request to carry out an action is received from a private device. The private device is associated with an enterprise device, which has one or more enterprise policies in place. One or more steps for carrying out the requested action are defined, and it is determined that at least one policy from the enterprise policies is required for at least one of the steps. It is also determined that the at least one policy is in place on the private device. The private device is then allowed to carry out the requested action according to the at least one policy.

Abstract: In an approach, a processor retrieves an indication of a plurality of service computing systems storing corresponding information bunches, pertaining to a subject, that are available to a third party. A processor collects the corresponding information bunches from the service computing systems. A processor generates enriched information pertaining to the subject according to a combination of the corresponding information bunches. A processor verifies the enriched information against a security rule. A processor outputs a result of the verification of the enriched information to the subject.

Abstract: Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for managing geographic locations of resources utilized to operate and support a workload. The method includes one or more processors identifying a request. Processing resources of a first network accessible computing system, located at a first geographic location, are allocated to execute the request. The method further includes determining an originating geographic location of the request and determining parameters for executing the request. The method further includes identifying a second network accessible computing system based on the parameters. The second network accessible computing system is located at a second geographic location associated with the originating geographic location of the request.
