Abstract: A system, method, and computer program are provided for authenticating a customer using a network provided by another service provider. In use, a message associated with a customer of a second network service provider is received from a first network service provider. Further, the message indicates usage by the customer of a network provided by the first network service provider. Additionally, in response to the receipt of the message, a request is sent from the second network service provider to the customer for authentication information. In addition, it is determined whether a valid response to the request is received by the second network service provider. Furthermore, based on the determination, the usage by the customer of the network provided by the first network service provider is conditionally blocked.
Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided including a catalog database with a plurality of product definitions. The product definitions includes a plurality of rules and attributes associated with a plurality of products. Further included is a pricing engine in communication with the catalog database. The pricing engine is adapted for charging for the products based on the rules and the attributes.
Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for allowing a non-chargeable event based on an authorization thereof. In use, an instruction to authorize events is received from an event threshold module based on a determination that an event threshold has been met. Additionally, in response to the instruction, a request is sent to an event processor to authorize an event, where the authorization is based on a determination of whether the event is chargeable or non-chargeable. Further, the event is allowed if the event is authorized by the event processor.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for dynamically altering a rating based on network conditions. In operation, at least one aspect of a condition of a network is identified. Furthermore, a rating in association with an event is dynamically altered, based on the at least one aspect of the condition of the network.
Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for displaying tasks as interactive thumbnails for interaction therewith by a user. In use, a plurality of tasks are identified. Additionally, for each of the tasks, an interactive thumbnail is generated which is representative of the task. Furthermore, the thumbnails are displayed for interaction therewith by a user.
Abstract: A system, system, method, and computer program product are provided for augmenting a user profile utilizing data collected in association with a social network service profile. In use, a first profile of a user managed by an entity is identified. Additionally, a second profile of the user maintained by a social network service separate from the entity is identified. Further, data associated with the second profile of the user is collected. Moreover, the first profile of the user is augmented utilizing the data.
Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for repartitioning data based on access of the data. In use, an addition of a new partition in memory to at least one existing partition in the memory across which data is stored is detected. Additionally, access to a portion of the data is identified. Further, one of the at least one existing partition in the memory in which the portion of the data is stored is determined. Moreover, the portion of the data is repartitioned from the one of the at least one existing partition to the new partition while allowing access to other portions of the data, in response to the identification of the access to the portion of the data.
Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for re-rating events, in use, a plurality of events associated with at least one customer is rated. Additionally, at least one of the events associated with the customer(s) is re-rated, in parallel with the rating.
Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for simulating a scenario based on information associated with a new campaign and stored event information. In operation, event information associated with one or more events is stored. The stored information may be related to the event parameters and the optional matches it provided. Additionally, an index is generated utilizing the stored event information. Furthermore, information associated with a new campaign is mapped to the stored event information utilizing the index. The mapping process may go beyond the exact match mechanism and expands the campaign parameters in a similar way to the actual search behavior. Still yet, a scenario is simulated based on the mapped information associated with the new campaign and the stored event information.

Abstract: A method of specifying changes to a communications network is disclosed. The method uses a network model representing a current configuration of the communications network. Scope information is received defining a subset of the network model to which changes are to be made. Model information relating to the defined subset of the network model is copied in accordance with the scope information, to create a partial model copy. The partial model copy is then modified to represent a planned configuration of the communications network. The partial model may be validated as consistent with the network model for the current configuration, and to reserve resources within it. Changes within the partial model may be passed to other models, including the current configuration.
