Abstract: A method of implementing administrative services for managing group feedback is disclosed. A selection of a feedback visibility setting for a feedback message from a plurality of predefined feedback visibility settings is received via a give feedback tab of a user interface. The feedback message and a selection of one or more recipients are received via the give feedback tab. The feedback message is sent to the selected one or more recipients based on the selected feedback visibility setting. A request for feedback and a selection of one or more feedback providers are received via a request feedback tab of the user interface. The request for feedback is sent to the selected one or more feedback providers. Received feedback responses linked to a user profile of the feedback requestor are stored.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a device including a processing system including a processor; and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations of: receiving domain name system (DNS) record changes; identifying errors from the DNS record changes; discarding the DNS record changes responsive to the errors identified; scheduling the DNS record changes responsive to a lack of errors identified; translating the DNS record changes into protocol specific formats; and provisioning the protocol specific formats of the translated DNS record changes. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: In response to communications between one or more given networks and one or more other networks, a network protection appliance discovers one or more computing resources of the one or more given networks from a plurality of protocol layers of the received communications. The network protection appliance also gleans properties of the one or more discovered computing resources of the one or more given networks from the plurality of protocol layers of the received communications. The network protection appliance maps the gleaned properties of the one or more discovered computing resources of the one or more given networks to a plurality of network protection policies. The network protection appliance also determines an applicable network protection policy for processing a corresponding received communication from the mapping of the gleaned properties of the one or more discovered given computing resources of the one or more given networks to the plurality of network protection policies.

Abstract: A multimedia access system has a remote unit coupled to a host computer system, which is used to control and access media files located on the host computer system. The remote unit comprises a plurality of controls, e.g. mouse, cursor, multimedia controls and a numerical keypad. The keypad is used to input code to be coupled to a linguistic input method editor. The code ranges from code for a full descriptive phrase of a media file, a code for a partial phrase to code for initials of the words of the phrase. The linguistic input method analyzer interprets the code and provides a search phrase to find a media file on the host computer to be played. The multimedia system operates with various languages comprising English, Spanish and the Asia languages.

Abstract: A system and method is shown that is used to input multilingual text into an electronic device comprising a numerical keypad, or equivalent. The system comprises a language input method editor that accesses a character database. Asian and non-Asian languages can be intermingled within a line of text using the language input method editor and displayed on a text window of the electronic device. Words, or characters, of Asian languages are selected from character databases using a special decimal code of four or more digits and characters of non-Asian languages are selected using a two-digit decimal code. The special decimal code for Asian languages provides a means for alphabetizing all characters of the Asian languages.
