Abstract: A second cellular client delegates cellular communication to a first cellular client. The first cellular client determines that the first cellular client has been assigned to perform cellular communication for the second cellular client. The first cellular client receives a transmission from a cellular service-provider antenna intended for the second cellular client. The first cellular client sends a first command based on the transmission to the second cellular client. The first command instructs the second cellular client to enable the cellular functionality of the second cellular client.

Abstract: A wireless connection may be established between a first computing device and a second computing device. A first media content may be displayed by the first computing device. The wireless connection may be determined to include a signal strength. The signal strength may be determined to be below a signal strength. In response to the determining that the wireless connection includes a signal strength and determining that the signal strength is below a threshold, a first bookmark may be generated. The first bookmark may reference a location within the first media content.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for controlling the delivery of voice communications. A profile is created for the user of a mobile device that specifies the thresholds for switching between a cellular network and a wireless network to conduct voice communications as well as stores a list of contacts and associated security levels. If the signal strength of the cellular radio signal is below a threshold, then the mobile device detects one or more wireless networks that are in the area of the user of the mobile device. The profile of the user of the mobile device is then checked to determine if the mobile device is authorized to switch to one of the detected wireless networks to deliver voice communications based on a security level associated with the party communicating with the user. In this manner, the user is able to control the delivery of voice communications.

Abstract: A method for providing a plurality of customized remote environments for application performance testing is provided. The method may include identifying a plurality of client customizations associated with a client application. The method may also include identifying a plurality of client hardware configurations associated with the client application. The method may further include populating a plurality of upgraded versions of the client application. Additionally, the method may include provisioning at least one remote environment. The method may also include applying the plurality of client customizations of the client application to the plurality of upgraded versions of the at least one client application. The method may further include deploying the plurality of upgraded versions of the at least one client application on at least one environment, whereby the deployed plurality of upgraded versions has the applied identified plurality of client customizations of the at least one client application.

Abstract: A computerized on-road vehicle service handling method involves: receiving a fault condition signal; automatically identifying multiple vehicle service locations; automatically transmitting information to the multiple vehicle service locations, identifying an estimated time of arrival at each vehicle service location based upon current location and speed of travel; receiving individual service responses, each reflecting an ability to service the vehicle, inherently representing a stock of parts needed, including at least an estimate of cost, and at least one appointment time within a specified time after the estimated time of arrival; causing the individual service responses to be provided to the user for potential selection; receiving a selection by the user of at least two service locations and an ordered list of preference thereof; replying to a first of the vehicle service locations in the ordered list by sending payment information; receiving a communication either accepting or rejecting.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for assisting a user in handling a vehicle service issue. A profile is created by a navigation system that stores preferences of the user, such as vehicle and vehicle service preferences (e.g., tire brands). The navigation system polls the vehicle sensors in the automobile diagnostic system periodically to interpret a status. If there has been a change in the status of a sensor (e.g., change in tire pressure) and if the change represents a service issue to be addressed, then a service issue has been identified. The navigation system then determines a change in the route the vehicle is currently traveling to reach a service destination (e.g., Discount Tire® store) to address the service issue (e.g., low tire pressure) taking into consideration the user's preferences (user's profile specified the Discount Tire® chain to handle all service issues relating to tires).

Abstract: An approach is provided for providing anonymous crowd sourced software tuning. The approach operates by anonymously receiving usage data from a number of software customer systems. The usage data that is received pertains to a software product. The received usage data is analyzed to identify healthy system patterns. The usage data received from each customer system is compared to at least one of the healthy system patterns. In one embodiment, the usage data from a customer system is compared to healthy system patterns from systems with similar configurations as the customer system. Sets of recommendations are generated based on the comparison with each set of recommendations corresponds to one of the software customers. The generated recommendations are provided to the respective software customers.

Abstract: A comparison tool compares metadata that describes an original workflow and metadata that describes a customized workflow. The original workflow and the computer application provide original functionality. The customized workflow is a modified version of the original workflow. The customized workflow and the computer application provide customized functionality. Analysis results, such as a report, are generated that represent the customized functionality. The comparison tool may further compare the original workflow metadata and customized workflow metadata with metadata that describes an updated original workflow. The updated original workflow and an updated version of the computer application provide updated functionality. Analysis results may be generated that represent the customized functionality merged with updated functionality, and a merged workflow may be created.

Abstract: A system and computer implemented method for managing a vehicle incident is disclosed. The method may include monitoring, in response to a triggering event, a first vehicle having a first vehicle state including a set of physical condition characteristics. The method may also include detecting, for the first vehicle, a vehicle incident including a change of one or more physical condition characteristics of the set of physical condition characteristics. The method may also include collecting, in response to detecting the vehicle incident for the first vehicle, incident circumstance information including a set of potential causes of the vehicle incident. In certain embodiments, the method may include providing incident data based on at least a portion of the incident circumstance information and at least a portion of the change of one or more physical condition characteristics.
