Abstract: A server-based desktop-virtual machines architecture may be extended to a client machine. In one embodiment, a user desktop is remotely accessed from a client system. The remote desktop is generated by a first virtual machine running on a server system, which may comprise one or more server computers. During execution of the first virtual machine, writes to a corresponding virtual disk are directed to a delta disk file or redo log. A copy of the virtual disk is created on the client system. When a user decides to “check out” his or her desktop, the first virtual machine is terminated (if it is running) and a copy of the delta disk is created on the client system. Once the delta disk is present on the client system, a second virtual machine can be started on the client system using the virtual disk and delta disk to provide local access to the user's desktop at the client system. This allows the user to then access his or her desktop without being connected to a network.

Abstract: A method and system for managing a therapeutic substance regimen including: receiving therapeutic substance information from a user; receiving information regarding a regimen; providing interaction information based on the therapeutic substance information; receiving an ascertainment of adherence to the regimen at a set of time points; generating an adherence metric based upon the ascertainment and the set of time points; providing a reward to the user based on the adherence metric; and providing an automated notification to the user based upon at least one of the ascertainment, the adherence metric, and the reward. The method can further comprise providing an advertisement to the user based on one of the therapeutic substance information and the regimen, generating a comparison of the adherence metric for the user to the adherence metric for a second user, and generating an automated refill or renewal request based upon the therapeutic substance information and the regimen.

Abstract: A method and system for web-based analysis of defective computer programs is disclosed. One aspect of the invention involves a method at a third-party computer remote from a customer computer with a defective program and remote from a set of computers associated with a support provider for the defective program. The method involves receiving log data and program code associated with the log data that was collected from the defective program on the customer computer; decompiling the program code if the program code is not already decompiled; and providing analysis of the received log data and the decompiled program code to a network application in communication with the third-party computer.
