Abstract: An approach is described for adjusting prominence of a participant profile in a social networking interface. An associated method may include receiving an activity stream update of the participant and calculating a relevancy score based on content in the activity stream update. The method further may include adjusting a visibility level of the participant profile in the social networking interface based upon the calculated relevancy score. Adjusting the visibility level may include increasing the visibility level of the participant profile upon determining that the calculated relevancy score is greater than or equal to a first predefined threshold value. Adjusting the visibility level further may include decreasing the visibility level of the participant profile upon determining that the calculated relevancy score is less than a second predefined threshold value.

A path quality indication representing a reported error having been detected by at least one of the intermediary node devices residing along the path, is incorporated in the forward-propagating packet. The destination device incorporates the path quality indication in an acknowledgement packet directed to the originator of the packet.

Abstract: First communication information is received from a first communication session in a first communication medium. The first information has an associated first topic identifier. The first communication information may be a media stream, such as a voice media stream. Second communication information is received from a second communication session in a second communication medium associated with the first topic identifier. The first and second communication mediums are different communication mediums. The second communication session occurs after the first communication session has ended. For example, the second communication medium may be an email that occurs after a voice call has completed. The first information and the second information are stored in a first topic record based on the first topic identifier. A user can then access the topic record to view the first and second communication information for the topic.

Abstract: Technologies are presented directed to uploading of attachments to a relevant group cloud storage at send time. A communication application and/or service may suggest to a user to upload an attachment of an outgoing communication to a group cloud storage upon generation of the communication. Suggestion of group may be based on last use, document type, content, user(s), which account the user is in, and comparable factors. The user (or sender) may also be provided with options to set permissions for the attachment based on the upload destination selection. In some examples, upload of work documents to personal cloud storage may be prevented and suitable groups may be selected for user that are part of multiple groups.

Abstract: Techniques described herein may be used to dynamically apply content filters to a user device by identifying the user operating the user device. An analytics server may collect information relevant to identifying the user, or the type of user (e.g., a child, a teenager, or an adult), and cause a content filter to be applied to the user device based on the user and content requested by the user. As such, systems and methods described herein provide techniques for applying a content filters based on the actual user that is operating the user device, as opposed to the just the user device itself.

Abstract: A method and apparatus may include determining a root. The root includes a first node within a cluster of nodes of a network. The method may also include generating at least one network dependency between the root and a second node. The at least one generated network dependency corresponds to a connection between nodes of the network. The at least one generated network dependency corresponds to a directional path from the apparatus to the second node. The method may include polling the second node. The polling occurs via the at least one network dependency that has been generated between the apparatus and the second node. The method may also include determining that the second node is unreachable. The method may also include generating activated alerts relating to the unreachable second node, if any of the parent nodes of the second node are determined to be reachable by the apparatus.

Abstract: A method, system and computer product for undoing user or administrator server configuration actions on a multi-tenant server panel. When a user or an administrator makes a mistake doing an operation in a server UI all the actions that were performed after the mistake, will be executed with errors, incorrectly or will produce unexpected results. The system allows for undoing all the subsequent user actions after the mistake to the point where the mistake was made. Separate action logs for each individual user or administrator are kept. A user can select an action from a menu list to be undone by invoking a corresponding server API without affecting any actions by other server panel users.

Abstract: A method for controlling an information terminal apparatus is disclosed. The method includes, receiving first display data indicating a condition to permit collecting selection information indicating recipe information selected by a user, and recipe information for selection. Once a recipe is selected by the user, selection information indicating selected recipe information is received. Based on the received information, a determination of whether the selected recipe information has a specific health identifier, and a determination of whether the user has granted a comprehensive permission for collecting the selection information under the indicated condition are made. When the selected recipe information is determined to include the specific health identifier and it is determined that the user has granted the comprehensive permission, the selected recipe information is uploaded to a server without requesting an individual permission from the user.

Abstract: An approach for updating of a repetition frequency of a system scan operation. The approach calculates values of asset management factors based on results of the asset management factors from a current and a previously performed system scan operation. Groups of the computer systems are treated as node equivalents, and the asset management factors are treated as synapse equivalents of the node equivalents. The approach also feeds values of the factors and weighing values as input for determining an update value for the repetition frequency as output. The weighing value is adaptable via the learning capability of the neural network equivalent. Finally, the repetition frequency is updated using the update value by an activation function.

Abstract: In one example, a gateway device includes one or more processors configured to determine that a subscriber device has started a first application, determine that the subscriber device has ended a second application, and send a message, in accordance with Diameter protocol, to a policy server device indicating both that the subscriber device has started the first application and that the subscriber device has ended the second application. In another example, a gateway device includes one or more processors configured to send at most one message, in accordance with Diameter protocol, to a policy server device indicating that a subscriber device has started an application, and at most one message, in accordance with the Diameter protocol, indicating that the subscriber device has stopped the application.

Abstract: A user operating a messaging client can use control codes to defer messages for later action. For example, a user can defer a message by forwarding the message to herself and including in a field of the message a control code indicating that the message should be deferred until a particular condition is met. A message management service can receive the forwarded message, detect the control code, and defer the forwarded message, the original message, or both, e.g., by temporarily moving the message(s) to a deferred-message store until the condition is met.

Abstract: When a message is received, the recipient set in the message, as well as ancestor message identifiers, are analyzed. The received message is either placed in an existing thread in an existing conversation, or in a new thread in the conversation, based upon the analysis of the recipient set and the ancestor identifiers.
