Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products are provided for merging the query results received for a query provided to multiple services. In one aspect, a query is transmitted to a plurality of search services. A plurality of query result sets is received from the search services in response to the query. A comparer function is generated by applying a ranking algorithm to the received query result sets that orders the query results of the query result sets without regard to a received order of the query results in the query result sets. The query result sets are merged into a merged query result set using the comparer function. In an aspect, the query result sets are merged in a manner that maintains an internal order of each received query result set in the merged query result set.

Abstract: A collaboration session is provided in which an owner computer system and a participant computer system are both members. Within this session, the collaborators are provided access to a multi-file workspace that is stored locally on the owner computer system. Initially, a set of development tools are identified. These tools are hosted by the owner computer system and are able to operate on the workspace's files. After the tools are identified, they are made accessible to the participant computer system. Later, a request is received from the participant computer system. In some instances, the request is directed to a particular file within the multi-file workspace and is generated using one of the development tools. In this manner, the collaboration session enables the owner computer system's development tools to become accessible to the participant computer system.
