  • Patent number: 9710789
    Abstract: An organizational chart view can include a plurality of icons each representing a person in an organization that are arranged to reflect a hierarchical organizational structure of the organization. A received first user input can include designation of two or more of the plurality of icons as part of a selected population, and a received second user input can include a selection of an analytical view to be applied to the selected population. The organizational chart view can be morphed to the selected analytical view, for example by generating animation effects to translate the plurality of icons in the selected population to form the selected analytical view.

  • Publication number: 20140337638
    Abstract: In one embodiment the present invention includes a computer-implemented method for a mobile device. An application security status is detected. When the application security status is active an application passcode is required to access functionality of a mobile application operating on the mobile device. A first encryption of data associated with the mobile application is performed, where the first encryption uses a first encryption key when the application security status is active, and the first encryption uses a second encryption key when the application security status is not active. A mobile device passcode status is detected. When the mobile device passcode status is active a mobile device passcode is required to access functionality of the mobile computing device. A second encryption of the data is performed when the mobile device passcode status is active, where the second encryption uses a third encryption key.

  • Publication number: 20140325480
    Abstract: Embodiments improve efficiency of creating a risk-based Regression Testing Plan (RTP) for a new version of software, by considering historical pass/fail data of particular regression tests for earlier software versions. Factors taken into account in recommending a particular regression test may include: a number of previous RTPs for earlier versions; a number of those previous RTPs including the particular regression test; the existence of a previous failure of the particular regression test in an earlier version; a date of last failure of the particular regression test in an earlier version; the existence of a previous passage of the particular regression test in an earlier version; a date of last passage of the particular regression test in an earlier software version. Certain regression tests deemed particularly useful (e.g. by a testing authority and/or the software's owner), may be automatically included in the regression test suite and exempted from the recommendation process.
