Abstract: Provided is a method for providing data buffering at a wireless communication nodes. Communication nodes maintain data buffering capabilities so that a data cache related to a particular mobile computing device is forwarded among communication nodes in anticipation the movement of the mobile computing device. A decision to forward a specific data cache associated with a particular mobile computing device to a particular end relay communication node is based upon the type, history or other knowledge of the data, knowledge of communication node configuration and/or knowledge of the particular mobile computing device. Intelligent predictions of advantageous buffer forwarding are employed to transmit data caches over high-speed connections between communication nodes to mitigate data buffering issues relating to the transmission of large amounts of data over slower end links between communication nodes and end user devices.

Abstract: Provided is a method for generating and updating screenshots within computer software documentation. The disclosed techniques enable software documentation to insert up-to-date screenshots either upon installation of the corresponding software, dynamically when the documentation is used, or in some combination of the two approaches. In one embodiment, the computing system or application detects when screenshots have been modified and regenerates screenshots within affected documentation. Documentation is created that includes text and macros. The macros provide for the inclusion of screenshots within the documentation. Each macro includes information about where an associated screenshot is to be captured, the steps necessary to capture the screenshot and the location within the documentation where the screenshot is displayed. Also included in association with the macros is configuration information necessary to generate the appropriate screenshot.

Abstract: Methods 400 are provided for using RFIDs to aid in creating and documenting electronic e-mail communications. A communication device such as a computer system 200 capable of sending e-mail is configured with an RFID reader 215. When a user is composing an e-mail to send and the computer system 200 detects an RFID identity tag 120 of the user, an authentication content is attached to the e-mail. The authentication content attached to the e-mail helps to authenticate the identity of the user to the person receiving the e-mail.

Abstract: Methods 400 are provided for using RFIDs to aid in creating and documenting electronic e-mail communications. A communication device 101 capable of sending e-mail is configured with an RFID transmitter and detector, or RFID transceiver. When the device is in the presence of other devices, the user may choose to capture the e-mail addresses of the other device using the RFID detection capability. Each device has an RFID associated with an e-mail address. By detecting the other RFID devices, the user may automatically capture their associated e-mail addresses.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for selectively displaying alternative language representations of text rendered by an application executing on a computer system.
