Abstract: A non-transitory readable storage medium storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the computer, cause the computer to perform a method of managing content and associated metadata in a network by a cache repository. The method comprises receiving content and associated data from a content source located in a local network of an edge facility; storing the content in the cache repository located in the local network of the edge facility; sending the content to an active repository remote from the local network of the edge facility for storage; and determining if a connection to the remote repository can be established in the network. If the connection to the active repository can be established, the method includes retrieving by the cache repository the content from the active repository; and if the connection to the active repository cannot be established, the method retrieves the content from the backup repository.

Abstract: Systems and methods of inspecting the structure of a software system composed of a service solution provider having service components that includes analyzing the relationships between services and components, applying a fitness algorithm to ascertain characteristics of the system and its components and creating a human readable representation of the software system or software service provider.

Abstract: Systems and methods for automatically signing a user on to an integration application when a user signs on to another application and signing a user off when the user signs off of the other application. The integration application automatically non-programmatically collects data from a mapped location of a mapped source reference of the other application. The collected data includes a user identifier value. The integration continuously monitors the collected user identifier value for a difference in the collected user identifier value. If the collected user identifier value is recognized by the integration application, the user is signed into the integration application using the collected user identifier value, and if a difference in the collected user identifier value is detected, the user is signed off of the integration application.

Abstract: A method of pre-fetching content that includes determining a possible future use of a content and determining if the content is available in a cache repository. If the possible future use is determined and the content is determined to be unavailable in the cache repository, the method retrieves the content from a remote repository and provides the retrieved content to a content consumer.

Abstract: A method of automatically separating a stack of pages into documents includes receiving a plurality of page images from a scanner; extracting content from each of the plurality of page images; for each of the plurality of page images, determining, based upon the extracted content, whether the page image is an initial page image of a document; and appending each of the plurality of page images located between a first determined initial page image and a second determined initial page image to the first determined initial page image.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus delineate grouped together content in documents. Void and unvoid pixels in document images get clustered together. Execution of a histogram and autocorrelation function, including peak detection, against the unvoid clusters reveals the content. Techniques for clustering include iteratively transforming an original image into secondary images with a Haar wavelet transformation, for example. Clustering begins on a lowest image plane and advances to a next highest plane until all void and unvoid pixels in the images are grouped. Void clusters at lower levels remain void clusters at higher levels, thus only unvoid clusters of pixels require processing at higher levels thereby optimizing processing. Imaging devices with scanners define suitable hardware for transformation of the document into images and processors with executable code cluster together pixels to delineate content. Further processing includes executing OCR or other routines post void/unvoid analysis.

Abstract: Methods to select and extract tabular data among the optical character recognition returned strings to automatically process documents, including documents containing academic transcripts.

Abstract: A method of addressing an unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information at an imaging device, including receiving an indication of the unauthorized disclosure of sensitive information; receiving or generating preliminary information about the unauthorized disclosure; and transmitting the indication and the preliminary information to a remote location to initiate an investigation on the unauthorized disclosure. After receiving the indication, the method includes entering a reduced function mode by the imaging device; receiving a clearance key when in the reduced function mode; and after receiving the clearance key, exiting the reduced function mode and entering a normal mode of operation.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing one or more instructions that, when executed by a computer, cause the computer to perform a method of dynamically load one or more modules into an application, the method comprising receiving from a configuration file a list of one or more available modules; retrieving for each available module, a mapping of a URL pattern to a callback function associated with each of the available modules; and adding the mapping of the URL pattern to a collection of URL patterns associated with the application.
