Abstract: Indexing and routing to event data is described. Event data is assigned an identifier that identifies the data type and the contents of event data within an enterprise system. The event data may be real-time event data. With the identifier, a source of the event data is determined, and the source can be queried for the event data in real-time. The identifier is indexed along with other event data identifiers. Based on the location of the event data, the system sends out a query toward the data source to obtain the information, but also to route the query to the data source, rather than attempting to pull data towards the query source and process it at the query source.

Abstract: In a system and a method, a first user input corresponding to a first graphical shape having first boundaries, a first size, and a first position is received on an initial virtual whiteboard having an infinite drawing area and occupying a display area of a user interface. In response to a first command, the first graphical shape is designated as a current virtual whiteboard by resizing the first graphical shape from the first size to a second size, with the second size being equal to the display area of the user interface, and with the first graphical shape having the first boundaries removed to effect an infinite drawing area within the first graphical shape. A second user input corresponding to a second graphical shape is received within the first graphical shape designated as the current virtual whiteboard.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for reducing network and processor bandwidth overhead when a client device fetches a Web page from a server. Presentation code is provided to mark view identifiers as well as indicate target areas of the Web page to be updated upon occurrence of selected events. The presentation code is further marked to indicate the target areas. Upon an event at the client the associated view identifier is located as well as the target areas for the event retrieved utilizing the marking information. Only the selected target areas are updated on the current Web page. A server-side optimization causes only the target areas to be rendered upon a request for the Web page.

Abstract: A system receives input from a seller agent of a first business organization and a centralized purchasing agent of a second business organization. The second business organization includes a plurality of decentralized business departments. The system generates an entitlement for an online purchasing site using the input from the seller agent and the input from the purchasing agent. The entitlement includes a validity condition and an impact condition. The system receives an input from one of the decentralized business departments, examines the validity conditions of the purchased entitlement, and in response to a determination that the validity conditions of the purchased entitlement are met, executes the impact conditions of the selected entitlement.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for populating a hash index and returning a handle to the hash index. An embodiment operates by determining, by at least one processor, during query optimization that a first database query has a query execution plan comprising a sub-query which executes N times a correlated predicate having an operator being one of equal and not equal to a base column. A cost of creating and probing the hash index N times and a cost of fully scanning the base column N times are compared based on the correlated predicate. Based on the comparing, it is determined whether to create on-demand a hash index.

Abstract: Method and computer system for evaluating the complexity a user interface are provided. A complexity indicator receives device class specific representations of the user interface. Each device class specific representation refers to a respective device class. The complexity indicator determines complexity values of layout components of the device class specific representations by using complexity evaluation functions associated with the layout components and aggregates the complexity values by device class according to a corresponding layout component hierarchy of the respective device class specific representation.

Abstract: The embodiments provide a runtime validation apparatus including a runtime interceptor configured to intercept a server request for a requested web resource and a response including response data, and an output validation policy identifier configured to identify an output validation policy from a database storing a plurality of output validation policies based on the requested web resource. The identified output validation policy may represent a template that encompasses allowed responses for the requested web resource. The runtime validation apparatus may further include a validation evaluator configured to compare the response data with the template, and a validation controller configured to permit the response to be transmitted if the response data complies with the template and block the response if at least a portion of the response data does not comply with the template.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for managing incident reports can include receiving alert messages from multiple tenants and aggregating the alert messages into a reduced, correlated incident reports.
