  • Patent number: 9239846
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to architectures, methods and systems and structures that facilitate the sharing and synchronization of electronically stored files among and between cloud entities and a number of computers, systems, devices and/or users. One particular exemplary architectural aspect includes the concurrent determination of file system changes within a cloud file system and a client file system, the serial ordering of necessary file system operations in response to the determined file system changes, and the concurrent execution of file system operations such that the cloud file system and the client computer file system are synchronized.

  • Publication number: 20100332975
    Abstract: Email messages in a mailing list for an organization are monitored and filtered (or queued for moderation) based on predetermined characteristics of the message. A manager of the mailing list can later determine whether the queued messages should be approved and distributed to the intended recipients or rejected and prevented from being distributed. Alternatively, an automatic decision is made to approve or reject messages based on the predetermined characteristics. The predetermined characteristics include: the size of the mailing list; the size of the email message; the existence of specified words (such as a product name or a specific word such as “confidential”) within the message; no subject line; the sender has sent too many messages already; and the email address matches a list.
