Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for communicating to remote devices information about change events related to changes in access to an enterprise system. A device access management system may facilitate communication about a change event to the remote devices. Information about a change event may be stored in a change event object based on the type of change event (e.g., a policy change, an application change, and a settings change). A change event queue may persistently store information corresponding to change events. One or more computing nodes may be scheduled to execute an action process for each change event based on the type of the change event. A computing node may communicate information (e.g., an instruction to implement adjust access) about a change event to remote devices. A change event may persist on the queue until all remote devices are notified about the change event.

Abstract: Functionality can be implemented in email applications to allow sent messages to be updated, even if the sent messages have been read.

Abstract: Replies to electronic messages are prepared, customized, and personalized reflecting a relationship a recipient might have with a sender. Each received message is categorized by medium, meta-data, content, and relationship. A message queue is transformed from FIFO order to groups ordered by similar urgency, complexity, or both. A compositor operates on messages which contain requests for action, requests for information, or imperative directives. A sender's relationship with the message recipient influences both the priority and the voice of a proffered reply as well as the medium of transmission. Prefatory and operative components of the received message are transformed into selectable reply message components. Sentiment analysis of received requests and proposed replies ensures role-appropriate professional quality and respectfulness. The apparatus offers choices of appropriate tone and style to recipient for salutations, body, and closing.

Abstract: Meta-data is generated by a client proxy based on previous response data received from a server proxy in response to a previous request for a resource. A client in communication with the client proxy makes a new request for the resource. The client proxy creates a modified request by modifying the new request to include one or more elements of the meta-data, and sends the modified request instead of the new request to the server proxy. The server proxy compares the one or more elements to corresponding one or more elements of meta-data stored in a server proxy cache. If all compared elements match, the server proxy instructs the client proxy to deliver response data stored in a client proxy cache to the client. If any of the compared elements does not match, the server proxy sends new response data to the client proxy for delivery to the client.

Abstract: A cloud application management infrastructure models biological swarm behaviors to assign application resources to physical processing resources in a decentralized manner. A balanced and highly automated management of cloud infrastructure has a predictable and reliable response to changing resource loads by using a limited local rule set to define how application instances interact with available resources. Digital pheromone signals at physical resources are applied locally by a swarm module to determine if the physical resources provide an acceptable environment for an application and, if not, the application swarms to other environments until a suitable environment is found.
