An example method may include receiving interaction data describing interactions by a user with one or more pages presented on a user device of the user, building a tag expression for the user based on the interaction data, the tag expression including a logical expression of tags and Boolean logic operators, and the tags being associated with page items. The method may also include generating a content page with a customized result customized to the user based on the tag expression.

Abstract: A computer process enables a target window associated with a first domain to receive a message from a child window associated with a second domain. The message is passed using an iframe that is created within the target window. The process may, for example, be used to relay information entered by a user into the child window to the target window.

Abstract: A system and method for facilitating displaying data in a table via a web-based data grid. The example method includes rendering a first table and then rendering a second table via a layer overlaid on the first table. The second table replicates a user selected portion of the first table. In a specific embodiment, the example method further includes providing a first user option to horizontally scroll the first table. One or more columns of the second table remain static in response to horizontal scrolling of the first table. A second user option enables vertical scrolling of the first table. Vertical scrolling of the first table causes concurrent vertical scrolling of the second table. A third user option enables repositioning of the second table relative to the first table. The first table and overlaid second table, called the frozen section, may be implemented via client-side scripting.

Abstract: Data stored in large scale systems often includes significant amounts of data and metadata. The data and metadata provide valuable structures for efficient data organization and analysis. However, when the data or metadata is missing, the missing data or metadata can cause disruption in organization and analysis efforts. A system with interactive user interfaces for enrichment of missing data or metadata is described. The system provides various dynamic filters to detect and identify data items with missing data or metadata. The system also provides for intuitive and efficient navigation of data items for determination of the missing data or metadata. Via its user interfaces, the system enables users to supply, or enrich, the missing data or metadata. Additionally, the user interfaces enable users to dynamically change available data or metadata values used for enrichment. Also, the system generates enriched output data sets, which may facilitate analysis of processes and systems.

Abstract: A business form generating server generates a business form page by overlaying form information and field data. The business form generating server generates data for displaying a browsing screen on which the business form page is browsed and edited. A client apparatus adds attribute information to information for a field of the business form page based on the data, wherein the attribute information includes layout information. If the information of the field of the business form page is edited by using the browsing screen, the client apparatus determines whether or not overlaying again is necessary based on the attribute information which is added to the information of the edited field.

Abstract: Various embodiments include a method and system for application above-the-fold rendering measurements. A start time corresponding to a rendering operation of an application may be recorded. A series of bitmaps of a portion of a rendering canvas representing above-the-fold data for the application may be captured. The first of the series of bitmaps may be captured at the start time and successive captured bitmaps each captured after a specified time interval from a previously captured bitmap. Each bitmap in the series of bitmaps may then be processed to create a corresponding measurement image, and the measurement images may be compared to determine an end time.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for extracting content from an email or email thread are provided. Any replied content is removed from the email based on at least one of known delimiters and known email thread patterns used for separating original and reply emails. Any signature content is removed based on at least one of generated signature patterns for the sender and known signature patterns. Any greeting content is removed based on at least one of generated greeting patterns for the recipient and known greeting patterns. Any sent from content identifying a device or an email client from which the email was sent is removed based on known sent from content. The remaining email text can then be output for further processing, such as analyzing the text for use in augmenting a sender's implicit profile, and analyzing the text for question or answer content on specific topics.

Abstract: A method for implementing web applications includes projecting, using a processor of a computing device, one element of a web page of a web application into a view of the web page, the view being a visual representation of a model of the web page, the model including application data and rules. A controller mediates input and converts input to commands for the view or the model. The controller transposes the one element projected in the view of the web page and another element using an insertion point that represents a defined location in a shadow document object model subtree, without affecting a document object model tree of the web page.

Abstract: A plurality of input data to be used to compute a first output is received. The first output is computed. It is determined that the computed first output is outside a pre-determined first-output limit. A plurality of hyperlinks is displayed on a display device. Each hyperlink provides a link to a process for making adjustments to the plurality of input data to bring the first output within the pre-determined first-output limit. Selection of one of the plurality of hyperlinks (the “selected hyperlink”) is detected. A process associated with the selected hyperlink is followed to produce an adjustment to the plurality of input data to bring the first output within the first pre-determined first-output limit. The adjusted plurality of input data is used to plan implementation of a system. The sequence of selection of hyperlinks is tracked in order to reinforce the prioritization and order of future suggestions. The system is implemented.

A master control table may be generating including data from a plurality of domain data tables and a configuration associated with each domain data table. A user may modify a domain data table (or associated domain data) via the master control table. A user interface may be generated having a first portion, listing domain data tables in the master control table, and a second portion. Upon selection of a domain data table from the first portion, the second portion may be populated with the data and associated configuration of the selected domain data table. Modifications to the domain data table (and/or domain data) may be made via the second portion.

Abstract: Style extensibility is provided to shapes in a diagram by editing text files. A structured data model is used to render the diagram representing items provided by the user in a text-based format such as a bulleted list. A style engine determines style properties for style labels assigned to key shapes of the diagram. Style properties include features associated with the shapes and their content that preserve an overall look-and-feel of the diagram. Color scheme(s) are also provided through the style labels. A layout engine uses layout definitions based on user input and default parameters along with style label assignments to render a presentation model. Style properties may be modified and new styles added after the diagram is rendered.

Abstract: Document authoring that involves illustrating pen input in an authoring environment is herein improved to provide patterns with higher perceptibility for representing the pen input in a graphical user interface. Colors and patterns are provided as effects that are applied to the illustrated pen input so that multiple textures or colors may be applied to the illustrated pen input without requiring the user to manually signal a switch in texture or colors or using multiple objects to represent the pen input. In various aspects, the patterns used in effects are created with a greater perceptibility, so that users will more readily recognize the effect, with various layers of a contrast basis image imparting a perceptible pattern and a background color image imparting colors for an enhanced ink effect definition.
