  • Patent number: 11195136
    Abstract: A performance bookmark of a dashboard view is created, e.g., in response to a triggering event. The performance bookmark includes a name, a timestamp, a reference to the visual properties of the dashboard view at the time that the performance bookmark is created and a reference to relationships of information displayed by the dashboard view at the time the performance bookmark is created. When a performance bookmark is recalled, the dashboard view is configured to correspond with the visual properties and relationships of information recorded at the time the select performance bookmark was created. Performance bookmarks are instances and relationships, and are not limited to snap shots captured of a static visual image of a dashboard screen from a corresponding dashboard user interface. As such, a retrieved dashboard view of a performance bookmark that is recalled from the bookmark system is live and supports user interaction.

  • Publication number: 20120330728
    Abstract: A business performance tagging module system and its operations are described herein. In some embodiments, the operations can include detecting an event associated with business-related content and evaluating the business-related content against a plurality of tags associated with a plurality of key performance indicators responsive to said detecting the event associated with the business-related content. The operations can further include determining that a set of the plurality of tags corresponds to the business-related content based, at least in part, on said evaluating the business-related content against the plurality of tags, and selecting a set of the plurality of key performance indicators associated with the set of the plurality of tags. The operations can further include presenting computational representations of the set of the plurality of key performance indicators via a user interface responsive to said selecting the set of the plurality of key performance indicators.

  • Patent number: 8341004
    Abstract: The present invention can include a solution that dynamically manages electronic calendar events based upon the key performance indicators (KPIs) of a business process monitoring (BPM) system. Such a system can include a BPM system, an electronic calendar software application, and a dynamic calendar event manager. The BPM system can be configured to manage data for many user-defined KPIs. The electronic calendar software application can be configured to manage the calendar data of various calendar events for many users. The dynamic calendar event definition can be configured to define a condition for modifying the calendar data of a user-specified calendar event. The dynamic calendar event definition can consist of a KPI threshold value, a calendar action, and an applicable attendee list. The dynamic calendar event manager can be configured to dynamically and automatically handle the modification of the calendar data in accordance with the dynamic calendar event definition.
