Abstract: A system and method for implementing a self-learning webpage layout based on history data is disclose. A server system collects user preference data from one or more client system. The server system stores the collected user preference data in a database associated with the server system. The server system receives a webpage request from a client system, wherein the requested webpage includes a plurality of topical sections. For each respective topical section, the server system accesses user preference data associated with the respective topical section from the database associated with the server system. The server system automatically generates a customized layout for the requested webpage by arranging the one or more topical sections in association with the user preference data associated with each topical section.

Abstract: This disclosure provides a method, system, and computer-readable medium for maintaining a history of copied objects using a mobile device and providing a menu listing the history of copied objects when a preconfigured gesture is received by the mobile device. The history of copied objects includes text objects, such as words, phrases, sentences, or complete paragraphs, and non-text objects, such as images, sounds, movies, and other such non-text objects. In addition, the mobile device is configured to be context-sensitive such that the alphanumeric characters of the text objects are saved in a persistent data storage whereas references to the non-text objects are saved.

Abstract: Systems and methods for receiving, at a server computer, an indication that a user is exiting an application on a client device displaying a first document, causing a footprint of the first document to be stored, receiving, at the server computer, a request for a second document from the client device operated by the user, determining that the user is enrolled in a footprint services, retrieving a footprint associated with the user including information related to a document previously accessed by the user, causing information related to the footprint to be displayed to the user on the client device, receiving, from the client device operated by the user, a response to the information related to the footprint displayed to the user on the client device, determining, from the response, a request to display the document associated with the footprint, and causing the document associated with the footprint to be displayed to the user instead of the second document requested by the user.

Abstract: A tile-based user interface (UI) may be presented on a display device in tile view in full-screen view. The underlying application is active whether the UI is in tile view or in full-screen view, and may generate data that can be presented via the UI. In tile view, the UI may present abbreviated representations of information generated by the underlying application. In full-screen view, the UI may present detailed representations of information, including graphical UI elements and data elements that were not presented in the tile view UI.

Abstract: Techniques are described for generating and presenting alternative organizational views for an organizational chart being presented inside a browser window. These different organizational views can organize the contents of the organizational chart based on different dimensions, thus allowing the user to group employees within the organizational chart across different dimensions. Advantages of presenting these different groupings is to allow the managers to quickly check the status of their direct reports.

Abstract: An Application Program Interface (API) manages synchronization and replication of master data of a system with different consumers. An API engine is configured to receive from the third party, a query including content information and date-relevant information including a start date, an end date, and a date of last synchronization. The API engine processes the query to access the database and produce a query result replicating only data changes affecting that period or a previous time. The consumer thus specifies the time period in which to consider changes to the stored database data, and the API calculates the delta according to that period. In this manner complex, time-dependent delta calculation and filtering logic can be implemented in the API without requiring substantial logic or additional data persistence in middleware. Particular embodiments may facilitate efficient synchronized replication of employment data to outside (e.g., payroll, benefits) providers.

Abstract: Techniques are described for aggregating information from multiple software tools into a manager cockpit. The manager cockpit includes multiple views for presenting the aggregated information in various actionable tiles. When an actionable tile is selected, the manager cockpit presents actions that can be performed on the selected tile. In some embodiments, the manager cockpit can apply a rules engine to generate alerts and a coaching engine to generate recommended actions to remedy the alerts. The recommended actions can be presented as an action that can be performed on the selected tile.

Abstract: An employee compensation modeling approach generates a model from a stored template. The model template may include fields for eligibility rules, performance ratings, guidelines, exchange rates, pay ranges, and other information. A modeling engine then populates that model with specific data from a human resources (HR) database, according to the structure of the template. Examples of HR data stored in an underlying database can include employee names, job codes, pay grades, physical job locations, base salaries, and other compensation-relevant information. The resulting compensation model includes a name, a description, target(s), and other information including allocation(s). The compensation model is displayed on an interface configured to receive further user inputs for purposes of model exploration and/or update.

Abstract: Techniques are described for a graphical user interface that presents a dashboard on a display of the mobile electronic device. The dashboard includes a footer for presenting commonly used features that are available to a given user. The remaining area in the dashboard is configured to present multiple tiles. Each tile can provide the status of a feature that is available to the user. Depending on the status of a given feature, the tile can change its visual appearance by applying a theme that corresponds to the status. The theme can affect the font, font size, typecast, or general overall appearance of the tile. The dashboard allows a user to monitor the status of features by pushing the status information to the dashboard instead of having the user manually check for the status of each feature.
