Abstract: A novel electronic system is configured to generate various office space stacking scenarios based on dynamic input parameters originating from office space-installed sensors, organization-insensitive external data, and organization-specific internal data. An office space stacking scenario involves an organization's plan to relocate employees and/or business units to achieve an optimized objective, such as an improved office lease-related cost controls or productivity within the organization. The novel electronic system also provides an autonomous machine determination of most optimal office space stacking scenarios after generating a plurality of computer-simulated scenarios, even without a human operator intervention. The office space-installed sensors (e.g.

Abstract: A space planning options management and visualization system provides an office space planner or a system operator a novel computer graphics-based future pathways simulation environment for potential future office floorplans. In one instance, a potential future office floorplan synthesized and simulated by the system includes employee relocation or reseating plans, office resource object allocation plans, office layout renovation plans, and departmental relocation plans. The space planning options management and visualization system is configured to synthesize, simulate, and visualize multiple instances of potential future office floorplans in one or more potential future pathways and various timeframes, which may develop timing co-dependencies and intricate parallel implications, even if one minor change is made to one particular plan at one particular time slice.

Abstract: A novel dynamic spatial clustering construction and visualization system is configured to intelligently and autonomously determine optimal office space divisions for improved space efficiency and/or productivity of an organization in a particular office floorplan.

Abstract: A novel space reservation real-time optimization management system incorporates potential meeting participants' real-time location and behavioral parameters gathered from participants' electronic devices, employee databases, and/or in-room occupancy sensors to generate a machine-determined optimal office space and resource assignment to the potential meeting participants. Preferably, the machine determined office space assignment is not finalized until a scheduled meeting time nears a just-in-time (JIT) threshold value for the machine-based real-time space optimization.

Abstract: Account management methods and systems are presented for managing and administering group accounts. A group may establish a financial group account using a novel group account management system in accordance with an embodiment of the invention. The novel group account management system can provide financial transaction-related controls, privileges, tracking, and/or reporting for one or more users, members, and/or sub-group within the group account. A concept of user-specific, member-specific, and/or sub-group-specific privileges is integrated into the novel group account management system to assign a particular user, member, and/or sub-group to an account management level within the group account. Furthermore, a novel concept of user-managed group account-related rules is also integrated into the novel group account management system to empower, restrict, and/or control certain transaction-related actions for at least some users, members, and/or sub-groups.

Abstract: A computer implemented method for document distribution, the method comprising steps the computer is programmed to perform, the steps comprising: on a networked computer, receiving a document from a sender and authorization data defining at least one authorized recipient for the document, the sender and the authorized recipient being remote from the networked computer, for at least one of the authorized recipients, selecting at least one respective optimal format among a plurality of file formats, converting the received document into the selected format, and distributing the converted document to the authorized recipient.

Abstract: An apparatus for securely presenting data to a user, the apparatus comprising: a data receiver, configured to receive the data, and a data presenter, associated with the data receiver, configured to present the received data to the user on a screen, through a graphical user interface comprising a first part exposing only a portion of the presented data and a second part disabling free viewing of a remaining portion of the presented data.

Abstract: Device, system, and method of file-utilization management. In some embodiments, a method may include linking between a computing device and at least one electronic mail address by verifying that a user of the linked computing device is authorized to access an electronic mail account represented by the linked electronic mail address; identifying an attempt by the user to access the content of a protected file, wherein the protected file is associated with permission information representing one or more allowed electronic mail addresses and including one or more content-utilization restrictions; and presenting the content of the protected file to the user of the linked device, if the linked electronic mail address is included in the allowed electronic mail addresses, while restricting the utilizing of the presented content according to a content-utilization restriction corresponding to the linked electronic mail address. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Device, system, and method of file-utilization management. In some embodiments, a method may include receiving the content of a file to be protected and permission information representing one or more allowed users and including one or more content-utilization restrictions corresponding to the allowed users; generating a web-application file including the content in a format presentable by a secure web application capable of managing the utilization of the content according to the content-utilization restrictions; and upon receiving a request from a user of a computing device, presenting the content of the protected file to the user via the secure web application, only if the user is an allowed user of the allowed users, while restricting the utilizing of the presented content according to a content-utilization restriction corresponding to allowed user. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Methods and system for delivering a communication protocol to a handheld electronic device. The techniques include physically attaching a first device having a first communication protocol to a second device having a plurality of communication protocols, the plurality including the first communication protocol and a second communication protocol, determining that the second communication protocol is not installed on the second device, based on this determination, selecting the first communication protocol from the plurality of communication protocols, and establishing communication between the first and second devices using the first communication protocol, transferring the second communication protocol from the second device to the first device, installing the second communication protocol on the first device, and switching to the second communication protocol for further communication.

Abstract: A computer system securely stores content items and provides a controlled grant of access to clients attempting to access such content items via a network. The system may include a Web server coupled to a content management system having one or more databases. The databases include the content items, which may take any of a variety of digital forms. For example, the content items may be text, image, audio, video, code, applets, or object files, or some combination thereof. Access to said content items is not directly available to the Web server or the clients. Rather, the content management system operates as an application server to the Web server. The Web server services requests for content items from the clients and, in turn, requests such content items from the content management system. In response, the content management system selectively provides such information (or representation thereof) as a function of satisfaction of certain criteria.
