  • Patent number: 11714526
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for generating content item to virtual meeting associations based upon whether content items are accessed during a virtual meeting. During a virtual meeting, a monitoring application executing on a personal computing device detects a user-input-triggered access of a content item during a virtual meeting. In response to detecting the user-input-triggered access of the content item, the monitoring application displays, in a computer graphical user interface, an indication that the monitoring application is associating the content item with the virtual meeting. The monitoring application stores content-item-to-virtual-meeting association data that associates the content item with the virtual meeting.

  • Publication number: 20220147948
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to generating and utilizing digital associations between digital documents and digital calendar events based on determined content connections. For example, one or more embodiments suggest a digital document to a user for association with a digital calendar event based on content connections between the digital document and the digital calendar event. In particular, one or more embodiments determine a content connection based on document characteristics (e.g., document content and access characteristics) and calendar event characteristics (e.g., calendar content and historical meeting information). For example, the system can train a machine learning model to determine content connections based on document characteristics and calendar event characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20130262464
    Abstract: Systems and methods of simplifying the configuration of systems, particularly those with components from multiple vendors are disclosed. In one embodiment, the system allows a user to enter the identity of the components that are to be assembled. Based on this, a rules-based logic system in conjunction with a database, generates a customized set of installation instructions for these particular components. These step-by-step instructions are then delivered to the user using a data output system. In some embodiments, the instructions are accompanied by images, illustrations or photographs of the component being described. The data input may be performed in a number of ways. In one embodiment, each component that is included in the database is labeled with an RFID tag which uniquely identifies it. In other embodiments, a bar code, the manufacturing SKU, a QR code, or an identifier from the retailer's receipt provides the identification information.
