Abstract: A method, system, apparatus, and computer-readable medium for providing spreadsheet-driven key performance indicators are disclosed. According to the method, a spreadsheet-driven key performance indicator is created that includes a location of a spreadsheet, a location of a cell within the spreadsheet to be utilized as an indicator value, and a goal value. The key performance indicator may be evaluated by retrieving the indicator value from cell of the spreadsheet, comparing the indicator value to the goal value, and providing a visual indication based on the result of the comparison. The goal value may also be expressed as a location within a spreadsheet. The spreadsheet locations may contain references to databases containing the data that should be utilized as the indicator and goal values. A warning value may also be specified, compared to the indicator, and a visual indication may be provided based upon the result of the comparison.

Abstract: Resources may be published to one or more computer networks. However, linking and retrieval of these resources are prone to error because resource addresses may depend on the network that is used to access the resource. The present invention is generally directed to dynamically rendering links based on the location of the computer that generated a request. Dynamically rendering links allows resources to be published to multiple networks and referenced without resources appearing to be inaccessible to users.

Abstract: Architecture for generating key performance indicators (KPIs) utilizing collaboration lists developed from collaborative sessions on projects to be completed. A web-based collaborative portal provides users the means to collaborate on projects and generate project task lists. Task lists developed and tracked during the web-based collaborative session can be consumed as data for generation of a KPI. Users can view, create and edit KPIs and monitor KPI status via a web page. When a task list item changes, the associated KPI is dynamically updated as well as the associated web page indicator and associated performance information. KPI values can be computed based on the number of list items, percentage of items that meet predetermined criteria, and/or summary calculations of an item property.
