  • Publication number: 20220309072
    Abstract: A computer transforms content of a composite table into structured data objects. The computer receives a composite table and identifying a data zone characterized by data columns, and a header zone. The computer identifies first header cells arranged coextensive with a single data column and second header cells arranged coextensive with a set of data columns. The computer generates a hierarchical representation of said header cells, based at least in part, on the header cell arrangements. The computer generates a revised table based on the hierarchical representation, with the first header cells identifying a data column and the second header cells identify a first header cell. The computer generates structured data objects representing the zones and being arranged based, at least in part, on the revised table and where the structured data objects are keyed to the first header cells.

  • Patent number: 11108712
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for processing messages sent to a recipient. The communication channel used to send the message is identified, where such a communication channel is not currently being used by the recipient. After identifying the communication channel(s) currently being used by the recipient, the contact information of users who have previously communicated with the recipient using the communication channel(s) currently being used by the recipient are analyzed. The message is then marked with the identity of the sender as well as the communication channel used by the sender after matching the contact information of the sender with the contact information of a user who had previously communicated with the recipient using the communication channel(s) currently being used by the recipient. The marked message is then sent to the recipient using a communication channel currently being used by the recipient.
