Abstract: Methods are provided for creating a composite program module within a computing ecosystem. The ecosystem comprises physical and/or virtual computing resources of a company, department or other organization. When a user discovers a grouping of modules that is useful to him, the ecosystem or his workspace allows him to create a composite module that comprises the group of modules. He can then access their combined functionality by activating just the composite module, in which case all the modules are automatically opened, without having to activate each one individually. Further, the ecosystem may suggest complementary program modules to a user based on his pattern of activity with one or more other modules. A composite program module may be created to include a suggested complementary module, or just modules discovered independently by the user.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system that facilitates improved navigation through a list. During operation, the system obtains a list, wherein the list includes a set of list-entries. The system then analyzes the list to determine a set of list-properties for the list. Next, the system associates a set of identifiers with the list based on the set of list-properties. Then, the system inserts the list into a list-box. The system also inserts the set of identifiers into a scrollbar associated with the list-box, thereby enabling a user to navigate to a subset of the list by selecting an identifier which corresponds to the subset from the scrollbar.
