Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for optimizing the loading of a web page. The server receives indications (e.g., Document Object Model (DOM) elements) of web page elements of interest of a web page from multiple client devices. The server updates a list of web page elements for the requested web page that is sorted in terms of popularity based on these received indications of web page elements of interest. The server may then appropriately respond to a request to retrieve that web page by accessing such a list and transmitting to the browser of the requesting client device the data to populate the content of the web page elements for the requested web page in an order based on the sorted list. In this manner, the browser will be able to optimize the loading of the web page.

Abstract: A request for a partial update of web content is received that identifies at least one web content element associated with the web content. An update is requested for the identified at least one web content element from a content server. The partial update of the web content is performed in response to receipt of the update for the identified at least one web content element from the content server.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for dynamic selection of a runtime classloader for a generated class file. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for dynamic selection of a runtime classloader for a generated class file is provided. The method includes extracting meta-data from a program object directed for execution in an application server and determining from the meta-data a container identity for a container in which the program object had been compiled. The method also includes selecting a container according to the meta-data. Finally, the method includes classloading the program object in the selected container.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a social network. The methods involve: creating a relationship between a first entity and a second entity; setting authorization which indicates that a user of said first entity is authorized to view inventory data of said second entity; receiving a request to view first inventory data of said first entity and second inventory data of said second entity by said user; and determining whether said user is authorized to view said second inventory data. If said user is authorized: querying a first remote inventory management system of said first entity for said first inventory data and a second remote inventory management system of said second entity for said second inventory data; receiving said first and second inventory data; generating an aggregate view comprising said first and second inventory data; and providing content of said aggregate view to a client computing device of said first entity.

Abstract: A method for managing a two-way form over a direct link is provided. The method includes establishing a communicative link between two communications clients each separately executing in memory by a processor of a corresponding one of two computers. The method also includes managing a two-way form rendered as individual instances of the two-way form each in a corresponding content browser executing in a corresponding one of the two computers. Finally, the method includes exchanging synchronization information for the two-way form over the communicative link. In one aspect of the embodiment, the method also includes prompting in one of the individual instances of the two-way form for verification of an update to a field providing in another of the individual instances of the two-way form. In another aspect of the embodiment, the method includes recording a verification of the update to the field in an audit trail.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for electronically communicating a correct Uniform Resource Locator (URL). The browser detects a copying of a URL to be placed in an electronic communication. In response to determining that the URL specifies an address of a loopback interface of the computing device via a localhost, the browser obtains the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) or Internet Protocol (IP) address of the computing device hosting the resource (e.g., application) referenced by the URL. The browser replaces the localhost in the URL with either the FQDN or IP address of the computing device. The modified URL is then made available to be shared with other users via electronic communication. In this manner, the localhost is automatically replaced with the correct domain name or IP address thereby ensuring that third party users will be able to retrieve the resource hosted on the computing device.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and/or computer program product configure an extended virtual machine. A virtual image is executed to initialize a virtual machine. An activation engine is activated to search for special extensions in the virtual image. The virtual machine scans at least one virtual disk for script to implement the special extensions as virtual machine extensions, such that the virtual machine reads and executes the extensions prior to being available for use.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to prioritizing the loading of a portion of a web page based on a user designation. An aspect includes providing a user interface for controlling page loading. A user selection of a portion of a web page is received at a server for priority loading. Accordingly, the loading of the portion of the web page is then prioritized based on the user selection. Embodiments further disclose measuring page loading analytics for a plurality of users. The loading of a portion of a web page may be prioritized based on the measured page loading analytics for the plurality of users. Responsive to subsequent page accesses from one of the plurality of users, the prioritized portion of the page is loaded.

Abstract: Methods and systems of co-browsing may provide for determining a custom set of display parameters for a co-browsing session based on a first set of display parameters corresponding to a first type of browser and a second set of display parameters corresponding to a second type of browser. One or more web applications can be notified of the custom set of display parameters, wherein the web applications may override responses to web requests during the co-browsing session based on the custom set of display parameteters.
