Abstract: A method for enhancing data migration via a Migration Manager is described. The method includes evaluating activity data corresponding to a particular set of data or a particular source device subject to data migration in order to determine whether a scheduled data migration can be performed. If the particular set of data or particular source device is currently being used, the scheduled data migration can be rescheduled. In other embodiments, the activity data can also be used to automatically schedule data migrations via the Migration Manager.

Abstract: A method for determining mail archive ownership during data migration is described. The method is performed by a Migration Manager that is capable of generating a list of possible owners based on confidence level. The confidence level is obtained by scanning various messages associated with the mail archive and determining a frequency of appearance a particular user name (e.g., e-mail address) appears compared to the total number of messages scanned. The generated list of possible owners can subsequently be used to determine/confirm the owner of the mail archive. Confirmation may be required before the data migration is completed.

Abstract: A method for migrating a nickname cache via a migration manager is described. The method includes the migration manager locating where the nickname cache is stored and locating where the nickname cache is to be migrated. Once the source and target devices are located, the migration manager can generate any necessary transformations so that the data migrated from the source device to the target device is compatible. The nickname cache can then be extracted from the source device, transformed and stored into the nickname cache of the target device.

Abstract: A high bay light fixture includes a substantially disc-shaped base, disposed horizontally so as to define an upper surface, a lower surface and a vertical axis. Groups of first light emitting diodes (LEDs) couple with the lower surface of the base. The LEDs within each group of first LEDs are arranged along one or more arcs of substantially constant radius relative to the vertical axis. At least one lower optic couples with the lower surface of the base such that the lower surface and the lower optic enclose the groups of the first LEDs. A plurality of second LEDs couples with the upper surface of the base. Upper optics couple with the upper surface of the base, such that the upper surface of the base and each of the upper optics enclose at least one of the second LEDs.

Abstract: A method executes software including a view hierarchy with a plurality of views which displays one or more views of the view hierarchy. The method executes software elements associated with a particular view, wherein each particular view includes event recognizers. Each event recognizer has an event definition based on sub-events, and an event handler that specifies an action for a target, and is configured to send the action to the target in response to an event recognition. The method detects a sequence of sub-events, and identifies one of the views of the view hierarchy as a hit view that establishes which views in the hierarchy are actively involved views. The method delivers a respective sub-event to event recognizers for each actively involved view, wherein each event recognizer for actively involved views in the view hierarchy processes the respective sub-event prior to processing a next sub-event in the sequence of sub-events.

Abstract: A method for rerouting and/or suspending data usage charges applicable to a user includes receiving a request from a device to initiate a web session, wherein the request specifies a web address, initiating a query for a billing entity associated with the web address, the web session, or a combination thereof, and transmitting identification information of the billing entity to a service provider associated with the device. The method involves managing the data usage charges of a user by rerouting the data usage charges to the host entity or the broker entity. The method further involves suspending the data usage charges of the user and not rerouting the data usage charges to any entity.
