Providing user applications for accessing data on multiple platforms from a removable storage medium
Patent number: 7844965Abstract: Under the present invention, a computer program is provided/developed to include a first set of program code that is executable on a first operating system (e.g., a WIN32-based operating system) and a second set of program code that is executable on a second operating system (e.g., handheld device-based operating system). Both sets of program code are set to read/write from a common datastore. Thereafter, the sets of program code and the common datastore can be stored on a removable storage medium such as a SD-RAM card with a USB adapter for easy interface with “full” computer systems and handheld devices.Type: GrantFiled: December 11, 2003Date of Patent: November 30, 2010Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Carl J.

Patent number: 7821405Abstract: A system and method for automatically generating and receiving notifications regarding accesses to documents in a shared repository, where the notifications are filtered such that they are only generated and/or received for accesses that match a personal interest profile of a local user. The personal interest profile of the local user includes a number of keywords determined to be of interest to the local user, as well as a number of important person identifiers associated with other users determined to be important to the local user. The system is operable to provide notifications in response to accesses by important other users to shared documents, including reading of those documents by the important other users.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2007Date of Patent: October 26, 2010Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Niklas Heidloff, Michael R. O'Brien, Carl J. Kraenzel

Patent number: 7734686Abstract: A mark-up method and system that enables server-managed thick client capabilities using a thin client server, framework, and administration. Active content such as program code, service, and data components, are driven to a thick client platform. The thick client platform is defined through a combination of thick client components, while the thick client components and user interface experience are centrally managed. The thick client container can operate to embed thin client container components, such as a browser, and the thick client container itself can be initially deployed over a network using a thin client.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2005Date of Patent: June 8, 2010Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Richard M. Wilson, Douglass J. Wilson, Carl J. Kraenzel, Jeffrey T. Calow

Patent number: 7698255Abstract: 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 K-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.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2003Date of Patent: April 13, 2010Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: James P. Goodwin, Carl J. Kraenzel, Andrew L. Schirmer, David L. Newbold

Patent number: 7693815Abstract: A network device such as a server monitors user behavior and provides subscriptions to documents based at least in part on that behavior. Subscription triggers include requesting at least a predetermined percentage of the entire document, requesting at least a predetermined number of pages in a document, and requesting a document at least a predetermined number of times. If documents are organized in a root and branch structure, the subscription may be triggered based on the extent to which documents are requested in the structure, e.g., triggered upon request for a branch document related to a root document. Subscriptions may also be limited to a portion of a document, such as a branch document associated with a root document.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2004Date of Patent: April 6, 2010Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Niklas Heidloff, Michael R. O'Brien, Carl J. Kraenzel, Gregory R. Klouda

Patent number: 7360082Abstract: A workflow, enterprise, and mail-enabled application server and platform supports distributed computing and remote execution of web applications. Lotus Domino online services (DOLS) is used by a web site administrator to configure Internet Notes (iNotes) clients to auto download from server, thus providing iNotes clients with web access using HTTP with various browsers, and with local processing and replication. A local run time model comprises a hierarchy of models including object data store model, security model, indexing model, replication model, agent workflow model and mail model. DOLS provides a layered security model that allows flexibility for controlling access to all or part of an application. The highest level of security is managed through a database access control list (ACL). Further refinements within the security model provide access to specific documents, and their views, forms or folders, and include read access lists, write access lists, form access lists and readers and authors fields.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2000Date of Patent: April 15, 2008Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Suze Berthold, John D. Immerman, Charles W. Kaufman, Carl J. Kraenzel

Patent number: 7200592Abstract: A system and method for synchronizing profile data based on one or more changes in affinity to knowledge data in a system. The profile data may include at least an affinity of a person to knowledge data. In some embodiments, metadata information associated with stored content belonging to one or more topical categories of knowledge data may be provided. The metadata information may represent a history of the person's activities with the stored content. The affinity of the person to the one or more topical categories of knowledge data may be determined based at least in part on the metadata information. One or more changes in the affinity of the person to the one or more topical categories of knowledge data may be determined. The profile data may be synchronized to indicate the determined one or more changes.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2003Date of Patent: April 3, 2007Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: James P.
