Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for identifying, by a computing device, content in a document, wherein the content includes a language expression. A context of the language expression is determined from a defined range of the content in the document. An action item associated with the language expression is generated based upon, at least in part, the context of the language expression.

Abstract: A method of suppressing content of a social network, the method comprising monitoring for a number of gestures of rejection of content on the social network from a number of users, generating suppression data based on the gestures of rejection, receiving input from a first user among the number of users indicating that the suppression data is to be leveraged, and suppressing content based on the suppression data.

Abstract: A method for dynamic tagging includes receiving input of a name of at least one tag into an information object implemented by an application that is executed by a computer system that is in communication with at least one tag repository external to the application; querying the at least one tag repository for the tag with the application executed by the computer system; and responsive to receiving at least one match from the at least one tag repository, incorporating the content into the information object with the application.

Abstract: Managing the sending of electronic mail (email) messages and responding to requests from indirect recipients for related information. An email message is originated with a first recipient and a recipient request prompt, which comprises a unique recipient request identifier (ID) linking it to the originator's email address. An empty recipient request list is generated, likewise linked to the recipient request ID. The message is then sent to a first recipient, who in turn forwards it to a second recipient. The recipient response prompt is displayed to the second recipient, who uses it to generate a recipient request for related information. The recipient request ID of the originated message and the second recipient's email address are appended to the recipient request, which is then sent to the message originator. The recipient request is received by the email system and parsed. The second recipient's email address is then appended to the recipient request list corresponding to the parsed recipient request ID.

Abstract: A system are provided for enabling a user to search for documents that the user has previously viewed on its local machine. The system includes three main components: the desktop integration module, the index module, and the graphical user interface module. The desktop integration module is an application which monitors documents with which the user interacts for predetermined events, and obtains content data and metadata from the monitored documents. The index module indexes the content data and metadata received from the desktop integration module. The graphical user interface module then permits a user to utilize the desktop integration module and index module by allowing a user to search for a document.

Abstract: Method, apparatus, and computer program products for estimating, scheduling, and tracking preparatory work associated with electronic meeting invitations. When a meeting invitation is received and tentatively accepted, preparation time for associated work is estimated programmatically from characteristics of documents associated with the meeting invitation. A floating block of time is created, subject to the constraint that it must be completed before the meeting convenes, and added to the user's electronic calendar.

Abstract: A system and method to control the review and publication of affinities. The system and method can be tailored to provide flexibility in the ways that affinity publication is controlled, thereby accommodating different cultural and legal constraints on information access. In one aspect, the system and method allows a person who is the subject of a proposed affinities to review the affinity and then approve or deny publication of the affinity before the affinity is made known to others, thus avoiding inappropriate publication. Advantageously, the system and method enable the person to review the affinity in a context that increases the likelihood that only accurate affinities will be published.

Abstract: A system, method, and processor readable medium for processing data in a knowledge management system gathers information content and transmits a work request for the information content gathered. The information content may be registered with a content map and assigned a unique document identifier. A work queue processes the work requests. The processed information may then be transmitted to another work queue for further processing. Further processing may include categorization, full-text indexing, metrics extraction or other process. Control messages may be transmitted to one or more users providing a status of the work request. The information may be analyzed and further indexed. A progress statistics report may be generated for each of the processes performed on the document. The progress statistics may be provided in a record. A shared access to a central data structure representing the metrics history and taxonomy may be provided for all work queues via a CORBA service.

Abstract: The present invention enables a flexible system for representing relationships among computing resources, assigning them strengths, and versioning them over time. One advantage is that all of the various ways that these entities are named in the real world can be normalized into a common model of identifiers (IDs) and types such that universal manipulations by class are possible without losing the capability to present the resulting information back with the original entity names or even with multiple equivalent names.

Abstract: A system and method for determining a user affinity for a category. The system calculates an affinity score based on a record of actions performed on the document by a user and a categorization of the document. This affinity score is computed by a weighted sum of factors associated with the document. The affinity score is normalized and a population threshold is applied. A predetermined percentage of the population of users associated with the document is determined and those users are said to have an affinity for at least one category assigned to the document. The system may also decay an affinity score if a user has not performed at least one action on the document. If the user performs an action on the document, however, the affinity may be reset. A user, system administrator or other user may also be enabled to decline an affinity for a category.

Abstract: A system, method, and processor readable medium including processor readable code embodied therein are provided that enable a user to refine a search query using a graphical user interface. A user may be presented with a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI may enable the user to input parameters into a first search query. The first search query may be run in a database. The system may determine whether any documents stored in the database satisfy the first search query. If the system determines that one or more documents satisfy the first search query, the system may retrieve a search results that includes the one or more documents. The system may then determine what type of information is included in the search result. Based on the type of information determination, the system may identify a search refinement option that may enable the user to limit the search result. The user may select a search refinement option to limit the search.
