Abstract: Techniques of modifying user interfaces associated with a browser application includes enabling a user to modify a web page as displayed by the web browser in a way not anticipated by the creators of the web page elements and without needing to understand the internal structure of the web page. For example, improved techniques implemented as part of the technical solution would allow a participant in a web meeting to emphasize the names of other participants having the same manager without knowing anything about the architecture or programming code associated with the web meeting application.

Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for mitigating loss of information in electronically transmitted images caused by compression operations performed on the images to facilitate transmissions. When an image for electronic transmission is received, a computer vision model extracts various points of data from the image corresponding to information present in the image that is intended for human consumption (for example, in a scan of a handwritten note from a doctor prescribing a medicine for a patient, some of the data points may include the name of the medicine, the dosage value, and when the medicine should be consumed). A test transmission image is then generated by applying the compression operations which are applied in the electronic transmission to a copy of the image, and that copy is also inputted to the computer vision model for data point extraction. Differences in the extracted data points are used to modify the image for transmission.

Abstract: Described are a system and method for performing an automated quality assessment on a software program under test. A test automation system executes a test on a software program Data related to the test is automatically collected. The data includes first information determined by the test automation system in response to executing the test. The data further includes second information related to the test and received from a source other than the test automation system. The first information is analyzed. A quality assessment of the software program is generated from the analyzed first information and from the second information.

Abstract: A system and method to allow an individual transaction in an instrumented software application to be monitored according to its own configuration. In one preferred embodiment, each transaction is associated with a token. The token includes the monitoring configuration that should be used for the associated transaction. When the application entry point is reached for the transaction, the token is looked up and retrieved, and the monitoring policy configuration of the token determines what data is gathered about the transaction.

Abstract: A method for graphically representing events at runtime in an event management system is provided. A plurality of events including a first event and a second event are received that define respective states of one or more networked devices. A cause-effect event relation is identified between the first event, the second event, and a projected event responsive to receiving the first and second events. A runtime visualization output is generated that includes a graphical representation of the first event, the second event, the projected event and the event relation.

Abstract: An approach is provided in which a maintenance optimizer receives a policy change threshold that corresponds to a system. The maintenance optimizer monitors real-time condition data associated with the system, and determines whether the real-time condition data has reached the policy change threshold. If the real-time condition data has not reached the policy change threshold, the maintenance optimizer generates a maintenance operation notification based upon the real-time condition data according to a maintenance schedule policy. However, if the real-time condition data has reached the policy change threshold, the maintenance optimizer generates an alternate maintenance operation notification based upon the real-time condition data according to an alternate maintenance schedule policy.

Abstract: A mechanism is provided for just-in-time instrumentation that uses bytecode insertion to modify a class definition to store a reference to the static class information to be used by probes. A hook is inserted to provide a callback to one or more probes. When the bytecode inserted hook is executed, the static class information is used to locate and execute the application probes.

Abstract: A system or method which accesses or otherwise receives collected performance data for at least one server application, where the server application is capable of performing a plurality of transactions with client devices and the client devices are geographically dispersed from the server in known geographical locales, which automatically determines from the performance data which of the transactions are utilized by users of the client devices, which selects utilized transactions according to at least one pre-determined selection criteria, which automatically generates a transaction playback script for each of the selected transactions substituting test information in place of user-supplied or user-unique information in the transactions, which designates each script for execution from a geographical locale corresponding to the locale of the clients which execute the utilized transactions, which deploys the playback scripts to robotic agents geographically co-located with client devices according to the locale

Abstract: A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code to display a Web site with its corresponding monitoring information. A determination is made as to whether a user at a client data processing system is permitted access monitoring information for a Web site. The Web page is retrieved to form a retrieved Web page in response to a request for a Web page from the Web site. Monitoring information is associated with the retrieved Web page from associated monitoring information if the user is permitted to access the monitoring information to form collocated content. The collocated content is sent to the user at the client data processing system.

Abstract: Method and apparatus is directed to a software system associated with a sequence of transactions, wherein the software system includes one or more programs. In embodiments of the invention, a runtime stack trace of an executing program is used to determine initially hidden software components that are interspersed between initially known or recognized components of the software system. In one embodiment, a method pertains to a software system provided to implement a sequence of transactions, wherein each transaction corresponds to a component of the software system. A transaction monitor probe is configured to recognize pre-specified software components, including components of the software system that correspond to some of the transactions. The probe recognizes each of the pre-specified components included in the software system, wherein recognized components include components corresponding to first and second sequential transactions.
