Abstract: The last known location and last time of location update can be stored for each of a set of mobile devices in device-specific records. A request for a specific mobile device can be received from a location services application. The last time of location update for the specific mobile device can be checked against a current time. If the last update time is current enough, the last known location for the device can be conveyed to the location services application. Information can then be presented on the device that is specific to its last known location.

A tag scanner can scan for location tags within a range of the tag scanner. Data can be conveyed from the tag scanner to a communicatively linked inventory control system. The scanning and conveying steps can be repeated to dynamically update the inventory control system.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a data structure which, given an identifier for a Representational State Transfer (REST) resource, can rapidly yield a configured target and simultaneously yield all configured pattern based rules and constraints for the target. The disclosed data structure is a tree structure including nodes for URL portions. Each node is associated with a hash tree specifically grown in a manner that ensures collision occurrences are non-existent. The tree structure is effectively two or more superimposed trees; one for URL pattern matching to determine a target, another for determining constraints. A single tree traversal, which can be based on a progressive hash, can be used to concurrently determine a target and a set of constraints, which represents improved performance over conventional implementations that require multiple, distinct query/response operations to produce equivalent results.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a document for formally defining service level requirements in a service oriented architecture (SOA). This document can include a service specification that defines functional attributes and a capability specification that defines performance requirements. These functional attributes and performance requirements can influence the response of the SOA to a service request. For example, a dynamic interpreter of the requirements document can dynamically adjust SOA resources to ensure performance requirements specified in the requirements document are met.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a solution that defines multiple retry points for a software application which are operable to generate and record trace information only as part of a retry execution in response to an exception. Outside these conditions, the burdens of generating and recording trace information can be avoided. Furthermore, the determination of a preferred one of these retry points can be made to focus the retry execution in a way that only the retry point which generates the most helpful, or informative, trace information is necessarily reverted to in response to an exception.

Abstract: An interface for reporting electronic data interchange (EDI) results can include an EDI report section and an EDI source section. The EDI report section can interactively present EDI reports for EDI source data. The EDI source section can interactively present EDI source data for which one of the EDI reports has been generated. The EDI reports and the EDI source data can be markup based documents. Each EDI report rendered within the EDI report section can include one or more hyperlinks. Each rendered hyperlinks can be mapped to a designated portion of the EDI source data.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an email application that includes a subject evaluation engine, which is able to automatically generate a subject heading suggestion for an email message based upon content contained in the email message.

Abstract: A system and method enhancing source code management with existing virus detection methods in a library management system to detect potentially malicious code. Malicious code that is introduced into a software product may be detected before the code is able to damage stored data and other software by preventing a product build with the malicious code. Source code received at a code management library system from a set of software developers in a collaborative development environment is moved into a staging area. A determination is made in the staging area as to whether malicious code exists in the source code. If malicious code exists, the library management system does not forward the source code to the software product build and notifies a system administrator of the presence of the malicious code.
