Abstract: A method and system. Application programming interface (API) call data is analyzed for a user to identify a relationship between API input data and API output data of two or more API calls. API usage information is generated by utilizing a dependency between the two or more API calls. The API usage information includes information pertaining to how data flows between the two or more API calls. API provision is improved with respect to execution of a process, based on utilization of the API usage information. Improving API provision includes: receiving a specification of an improvement to be achieved for the process, selecting at least two APIs from the two or more APIs for achieving the improvement, generating a new API that combines the at least two APIs, and modifying the process by including the new API in the process and removing the at least two APIs from the process.

Abstract: A method and apparatus. In response to a first mobile device not being connected to the broker service apparatus, it is ascertained that a second mobile device is connected to the broker service apparatus. A first control signal was received, prior to ascertaining that the second mobile device is connected to the broker service apparatus, by the broker service apparatus from a telephony service. The first control signal includes a first unique identifier and data targeted to the first mobile device. In response to the ascertaining, a second control signal is issued to the second mobile device in order to forward the data to the second mobile device. The second control signal includes an identifier of the first mobile device. The second control signal causes the second mobile device to use the identifier of the first mobile device to forward the data to the first mobile device.

Abstract: Secure passcode entry using a mobile device having augmented reality capability. The mobile device is registered with an authorization server to register an agreed input display algorithm with an initialization seed, and a user passcode is registered with the authorization server. A superset of options is obtained from an input interface device at which a user passcode is to be entered. The superset of options is processed using the input display algorithm and initialization seed to result in an arrangement of characters including the characters of a registered user passcode. The arrangement of characters is overlaid using the augmented reality capability of the mobile device in relation to an input interface of the input interface device.

Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable optimization of a cache of compiled XML Path Language (XPath) expressions by removing variability from XPath expressions. More specifically, XPath expressions are identified that are the same but for one or more hardcoded values. These hardcoded values are identified and replaced in an identified XPath expression with an identifier to form a cache optimized XPath expression that lacks the hardcoded value variability of the identified XPath expressions. This cache optimized XPath expression is inserted into a definition of a cache optimized function. The optimized XPath expression receives values as arguments of the cache optimized Xpath function and passes the received values to the variable identifier in the cache optimized XPath expression. The identified XPath expressions can then be rewritten as calls to the cache optimized function. Therefore, only the cache optimized XPath expression, instead of several of the identified XPath expressions, is stored in the cache.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems and computer program products for operating and controlling network-enabled devices. A network-enabled device communicates capability information representative of its set of capabilities. The network-enabled device also communicates a status signal indicative of the status of the device. It may be determined that the first network-enabled device is unable or unavailable to perform a function based on a status signal communicated by the first network-enabled device. A second network-enabled device may be identified to assign a failover function to based on the respective capabilities of the second network-enabled devices.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling a second mobile device in response to a first mobile device having no connection to a telephony service. In response to receiving a first control signal including the first unique identifier and from the telephony service, the first unique identifier is used to identify the first group. The data is targeted to the first mobile device. In response to the first mobile device not being connected to the broker service apparatus and the second mobile device being connected to the broker service apparatus, a second control signal, which includes the identifier of the first mobile device, is issued to the second mobile device in order to forward the data to the second mobile device.

More specifically, XPath expressions are identified that are the same but for one or more hardcoded values. These hardcoded values are identified and replaced in an identified XPath expression with an identifier to form a cache optimized XPath expression that lacks the hardcoded value variability of the identified XPath expressions. This cache optimized XPath expression is inserted into a cache optimized function that receives the hardcoded value as arguments and assigns the received hardcoded value to the identifier in the cache optimized XPath expression. The identified XPath expressions are then rewritten as calls to the cache optimized function or to another function wrapping the cache optimized function.

Abstract: Controlling transmission of an alert to a user of a device providing audio. An event which is identified as an alert is detected, and it is determined that the alert is a notifiable alert. A movement sensor associated with the user is monitored during a time period after detection of the notifiable alert. During the time period, it is determined whether movement of the sensor has deviated from a prior pattern of movement. A deviation indicates a user response to the alert. An action to alert the user is taken if the movement of the sensor during the time period has not deviated from the prior pattern of movement indicating that the user has not responded to the original alert. There is no such action if the movement of the sensor has deviated from the prior pattern of movement indicating a user response to the alert.
