Abstract: For preventing unwanted information disclosure in a current electronic communication from a sender to a receiver of the current electronic communication, a risk score is assigned for the current electronic communication by a computer system applying an access control model based on historical electronic communications. The model generates the risk score responsive to identities of the sender and receiver and responsive to access control level and hierarchal position of at least one of the sender and receiver. The computer system blocks transmission of the current electronic communication from the sender to the receiver responsive to whether the risk score for the sender and receiver exceeds a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A preferred communication application hierarchy that specifies user priorities for application selection for communication sessions and functional communication capabilities of each prioritized application is configured for at least one user of a group of users. A real-time communication request, initiated by a user with a configured preferred communication application hierarchy, is detected that specifies a particular type of communication functionality and that includes an indication of another one of the group of users as a requested communication recipient. Responsive to detecting the real-time communication request that specifies the particular type of communication functionality, a highest-priority application usable to perform the specified particular type of communication functionality with a communication device of the requested communication recipient is selected from the configured preferred communication application hierarchy of the requesting user.

Abstract: Disclosed aspects relate to electronic meeting management. A first attentiveness factor may be detected for a first user at a first time by a meeting management engine with respect to an electronic meeting. A second attentiveness factor may be detected for the first user at a second time by the meeting management engine with respect to the electronic meeting. The second time may be subsequent to the first time, and the second attentiveness factor may differ from the first attentiveness factor. A set of meeting data for the electronic meeting may be captured between the first time and the second time. Based on the set of meeting data, the meeting management engine may determine a set of content summary data for the electronic meeting between the first time and the second time in an automated fashion. The set of content summary data may be provided to the first user.

Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for evaluating an impact of a user's content utilized in a social network. Content in a document (e.g., a presentation) that has been posted on a social network environment is detected as being reused by another user in another document. The author of the reused content is then identified. A counter keeping track of the number of times this content has been adopted in derivative works is then incremented. A score (“impact score”), representing the author's ability to influence other users to adopt the author's content in other users' derivative works, is then generated based on the number of times this content has been adopted in derivative works. Social credit is then provided to the author using the impact score. In this manner, recognition is provided to the author thereby providing motivation for users to post created content in the social network.

Abstract: Task-oriented messages are presented to a user in an interactive format for disposition. Natural language processing techniques parse task-oriented messages for individual tasks, such as assignments, information requests, and requests for approval or authorization. A user interface provides a recipient of a task-oriented message with selectable tasks for individual, or group, disposition, such as respond, defer, delegate, mark answered, and ignore. Recipients are notified if an incomplete response is generated, such as when an identified task is not dispositioned.
