Patent number: 9915540Abstract: Aspects of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for generating routing information. The method includes one or more processors acquiring a current location for each of a plurality of mobile computing devices. The method further includes one or more processors identifying a range that corresponds to each of the plurality of mobile computing devices. The method further includes one or more processors determining a target location at which at least two of the plurality of mobile computing devices can be in proximity. The determined target location is based on the acquired current location of each of the plurality of mobile computing devices and the identified ranges that correspond to each of the plurality of mobile computing devices. The method further includes one or more processors generating routing information corresponding to the at least two of the mobile computing devices and the determined target location.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2015Date of Patent: March 13, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Anna Bridgen, Christopher J. Poole, Stephen J. Upton, Mark A. Woolley

Patent number: 9881101Abstract: A computer loads a web page, the web page including a first file and a second file. The computer then determines a likelihood of change value for the first and second file. The computer then loads one of the first or second file having a higher likelihood of change value and subsequently loads the other of the first or second file having a lower likelihood of change value.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2012Date of Patent: January 30, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Anna Bridgen, Andrew Flatt, Jonathan C. Mace, Richard W. Pilot

Patent number: 8898589Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for flattening a subset of configuration UI panels in a hierarchy of UI panels. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for flattening a subset of configuration UI panels in a hierarchy of UI panels has been provided. The method includes executing a query against an index of artifacts for which configuration parameter values are receivable in a corresponding panel disposed within a hierarchy of panels of an application. The method additionally includes receiving a result set of artifacts from the index for the query and identifying panels in the hierarchy corresponding to artifacts in the result set. Finally, the method includes displaying a single window in the application with an arrangement of the identified panels.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2011Date of Patent: November 25, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Anna Bridgen, Andrew Flatt, Jonathan Mace, Richard Pilot
