  • Patent number: 9679245
    Abstract: A search facility is used to predict the impact of change on events detected in application logic, where the change may involve a computing resource used by or referenced by the application logic and/or by event detection logic. The search may be performed prior to making a change, in order to judge potential impact of the change, or after the change has been made. The search makes the prediction by evaluating semantics of conditions that specify when and/or and how an event will be detected at run-time.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9286407
    Abstract: A method of bookmarking internet resources in an internet browser includes providing to a user an internet resource discovered by a search conducted via the browser in accordance with user supplied criteria; creating, responsive to a bookmarking request from the user, bookmark data having identifying data for the internet resource and an associated resource representation of the internet resource; and creating a hierarchy, for presentation to the user, of representations of internet resources for which bookmarking has been requested and of associated search criteria, each bookmarked resource representation being placed subordinate to corresponding associated search criteria representation in the hierarchy. A user can navigate to a bookmarked representation of a resource of interest via the corresponding associated search criteria representation for selection and subsequent retrieval of the resource of interest.
