Abstract: Illustrative embodiments disclose receiving a command to play a selected audio visual media on a client device. The client device determines portions of audio visual media from elected audio visual media and a sequence identifying each portion of the portions in a particular order for playing the portions. The portions and the sequence are determined according to a policy for playing each portion on the client device. The client device retrieves the portions to play in sequence and plays at least a partially retrieved first portion of the portions of the selected audio visual media on the client device. The first portion is identified based on the particular order in the sequence.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for wireless tower caching. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for wireless tower caching in a radio access network (RAN) can include receiving a response to a request from an end user device wirelessly coupled to a base station of the RAN, determining geographic positioning data for the response and identifying a most geographically wireless tower coupled to the RAN relative to the determined geographic positioning data (such as the closest wireless tower to the determined geographic positioning data). Thereafter, the response can be cached at a cache in a base station of the identified wireless tower. In this way, the cached content can remain relevant for a significant period of time in as much as the correlation between a likely position of the end user device and the content cached at the base station of the wireless tower at the time of use of the cached content is strong.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided for mobile enablement of webpages (e.g., HTML webpages). In one example, mechanisms are provided for refactoring Java Server Pages “JSP” of a web application into an abstraction layer that partitions the visual presentation elements of HTML pages of the web application into a set of views and a Javascript home page. Further, mechanisms are provided for enabling access to the HTML pages over a mobile device by stacking views one atop another (in one specific example, the views may be rendered only one view at a time as needed; in another specific example any number of views (e.g., all of the views) may be rendered at once). Further, mechanisms are provided for enabling navigation between the views for the HTML pages by providing buttons along with each view.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided to implement a customizable mobile application utilizing a local template to personalize data. In one example, a local client application on a mobile device automatically changes the local content by utilizing a locally cached template and REST service supported by a remote application. In another example, the template further supports multiple phases of personalization.

Abstract: Mobile enablement of a web site, in one aspect, may comprise separating the web application into a static content and a dynamic content, the dynamic content comprising one or more data sources from which to retrieve data at runtime of the web application; rendering the static content as one or more hypertext markup language pages with one or more links between the hypertext markup language pages converted to local links; changing one or more references to the dynamic content to representational state transfer requests; enabling the representational state transfer requests from said one or more hypertext markup language pages; and packaging said one or more hypertext markup language pages as the mobile application.

Abstract: Mechanisms are provided to mobilize a web application (e.g., a webpage) to take advantage of a native device capability (e.g., a native device capability of a mobile device). In one example, existing program code in a webpage that performs a first action that uses functionality of desktop software is identified and replaced with replacement program code that performs a second action that uses native device capability of a mobile device.

Abstract: Under the present invention, when a configuration change for a computer system is monitored and a message corresponding thereto is issued, a response to the message will be observed. Thereafter, the configuration change, the message and the response will be logged. In logging this information, the respective times and identities of corresponding users will be stored together. Thus, if an error condition results from the configuration change, a supervisor or the like will be able to access the log file and see (among other things): (1) the configuration change that caused the error condition; (2) the identity of the user who made it; and (3) the user's response to the corresponding message that was provided.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for deploying data to a web server for streaming video to a mobile device. The method can include receiving a request for streaming video from a mobile device upon the resolving of the request by a DNS. The method can further include simultaneously sending both a request to a database for the video requested and a playlist for the video to the mobile device. The method can then include receiving the video from the database. The video received is sent as a sequence of blocks, where each block can further be comprised of a sequence of chunks. The method can even further include decompressing each block and storing each chunk on a web server. The method can further include an exchange of a security credential.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for weather adaptive environmentally hardened appliances. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for weather adaptation of an environmentally hardened computing appliance includes determining a location of an environmentally hardened computing appliance. Thereafter, a weather forecast including a temperature forecast can be retrieved for a block of time at the location. As a result, a cache policy for a cache of the environmentally hardened computing appliance can be adjusted to account for the weather forecast.
