Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatus for generating accessible documents. In one embodiment, an initial document in a print format is obtained. The print format of the initial document is identified as one of a plurality of print formats. A parser corresponding to the one of the plurality of print formats is applied such that the initial document is parsed according to the print format of the initial document. An intermediate document that conforms to an intermediate format is generated based upon results obtained from applying the parser. A template for converting the intermediate document into an accessible document is obtained. The template is then such that an accessible document corresponding to the initial document is generated, wherein the accessible document includes a plurality of tags that designate an order of a plurality of regions of the accessible document.

Abstract: According to examples, intelligent visualization munging may include transforming and enriching data that is to be visualized, determining features of the transformed and enriched data, determining a user role of a user associated with the transformed and enriched data, and a user interaction of the user. Intelligent visualization munging may further include learning a behavior of the user, and analyzing the features, the user role, the user interaction, and a learned behavior model to generate a recommendation that includes a predetermined number of visualizations from a plurality of available visualizations to display the transformed and enriched data. The predetermined number of visualizations is less than the plurality of available visualizations.

Abstract: Aspects described herein may provide methods and systems for loading a second application from a first application while maintaining a consistent user experience. A technique may comprise receiving, by a client application, a first application from web servers. Upon receipt of a request for a second application, the first application may display a first loading display. The client application and/or the first application may then retrieve the second application and, in the process of retrieving the second application, cause the second application to display a similar loading display. When the client application switches from the first application to the second application, the client may display the second loading display. The similarity of the two loading displays may minimize the interruption perceived by the user. The loading displays may comprise indications of loading status, advertisements, interactive elements, or other content for display to the user.

Abstract: According to various example embodiments, a prompt is superimposed over a second user profile page that is being viewed by a first user, the prompt inviting the first user to update their own user profile page, based on the second user profile page being viewed. For example, the prompt may invite the first user to add a piece of content on their profile page that is included in the second user profile page but is missing from the first user profile page.

Abstract: Each of a plurality of content matchers is executed upon a body of text in a document, identifying at least one match in the text and additionally assigning a match strength for each match. Where a conflict between a first match (have a first match strength associated therewith) and a second match (having a second match strength associated therewith) is noted, it is determined whether either of the first or the second match strength is greater than the other. If so, that match of the first and second matches corresponding to the lesser of the first and second match strengths is discarded. If the first or second match strengths are equal, then respective matcher ranks of the first matcher and the second matcher are compared such that the match of the first and second matches corresponding to the lesser of the first and second matcher ranks is discarded.

Abstract: Content rendered by content browsers may be rendered in an initial load followed by a number of dynamic updates. When testing the behavior of such content as it is rendered, a listener script is injected into the content after the initial load. The listener script maintains an update indicator that indicates information regarding dynamic updates. The indicator is monitored to detect a situation in which no dynamic updates have been performed within a predetermined period of time. Upon detecting such a situation, it may be concluded that the content has been substantially rendered.

Abstract: Systems and methods for real-time collaborative computing and collective intelligence are disclosed. A collaborative application runs on a collaborative server connected to a plurality of computing devices. Collaborative sessions are run wherein a group of independent users, networked over the internet, collaboratively answer questions in real-time, thereby harnessing their collective intelligence. Methods are disclosed for, during a collaborative session, real-time changing of the amount of influence the user has on determining the collaborative answer.

Abstract: A method for adapting tabular data for narration is provided in the illustrative embodiments. A set of categories used to organize data is identified in a first tabular portion of a document. A structure of the categories is analyzed. An inference is drawn about data in a first cell in the first tabular portion based on a position of the first cell in the structure. The first tabular portion of the document is transformed into a first narrative form using the inference.

Abstract: A method for obtaining server-side and client-side calculations performed in a document includes presenting, on a client computer, the document stored on a server and receiving an input, where the input causes a calculation in the document. The client computer performs the calculation on the client computer and sends the input to the server to concurrently perform the calculation on the server. The client computer obtains a first result from the calculation performed on the client computer and a second result from the calculation performed on the server, selects the first result or the second result as a selected result based on which of the first result or the second result is obtained quicker from the calculation performed on the client computer and the calculation performed on the server, and presents, in the document, the selected result to the user.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for developing web services for a plurality of platforms utilizing a plurality of web service specification languages. A common data layer is used to map classes of different web service specification languages to a common class hierarchy. This allows for the creation of data layers independent of each individual web service specification language, reducing the requirement to implement duplicate data controls for each web service specification language.
