  • Patent number: 6636889
    Abstract: Collaboration space object model provides for a Place consisting of rooms made up of pages. Folders are used to organize pages. Members belong to rooms, and are those users authorized to access them. Place type controls the creation of a place, including how many rooms it has, for example. Room type controls the appearance and content of rooms. A form employs scripts to process and compute data. A page is the basic vehicle for content. Content is created using or importing content from an external source. A member is also a data note, and each place contains its own member directory. A place is created and managed from a client browser in on-line mode and in offline mode with respect to a replicated copy of the space. Room security is independently managed, and security and aesthetics characteristics of subrooms selectively inherited.

  • Publication number: 20030163485
    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 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.

  • Patent number: 6574617
    Abstract: 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.

  • Patent number: 6513039
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable medium for generating a profile of a network user based on a user's access privileges stored in an access control list (ACL). The system may include an accessible objects determining object for determining objects that are accessible by a particular user. An access privilege determining object may be used to determine a user's access privileges for each accessible object. The system may also include an object topic determining object for determining the subject matter of the object. The subject matter of the object may be used to generate a profile indicating a user's affinity (e.g., experience, knowledge, interest, etc.). A user affinity object may be used to determine a user's affinity based on, for example, the accessible objects, the user's access privileges, and the subject matter of the accessible objects.
