Abstract: Managing document annotations in a publish/subscribe system is described. A publishing system creates annotations of a document that include references to where the annotations are to be displayed; stores the annotations separately from the document; names an annotation set using tags; sets roles and permissions for use of the annotation set, including access permissions based on a time and/or location constraint of a subscribing user; and publishes the annotation set to a publish/subscribe broker for access by the subscribing users. A subscribing system subscribes a user to annotations of a document, wherein each annotation is separate from the document and includes reference to where the annotations are to be displayed. The subscribing system also defines a role of the subscribing user, wherein use permissions of the annotations by the subscribing user are controlled based on the role, including time and/or location constraints of the subscribing user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating a visually enhanced image of a digital document are disclosed. In one example, a method includes receiving, by a computing device, a selection of an original document to be viewed by a user; obtaining, by the computing device, visual annotations for the original document from a remote computing device, wherein the visual annotations indicate one or more visual effects parameters associated with one or more pages of the original document; determining, by the computing device, visual effects to be applied to one or more pages of the original document based on the visual annotations; and applying the visual effects to render, by the computing device, a visually enhanced version of the original document for viewing by the user.

Abstract: Control of messages in a publish/subscribe system is described. A publishing system creates a message for publishing to multiple subscribers via a broker system. The message and associated metadata are provided. The metadata defines control of the message and relates to control of publishing of the message, by the broker system, and/or control of use of the message, by a subscribing system. The message is published with the metadata. A broker system receives the message and analyses the metadata with respect to a subscriber. Based on the analysis, restrictions are applied to delivery of the message to the subscriber. A subscribing system receives the message and analyses the metadata with respect to the subscriber. Based on this second analysis, restrictions are applied to use of the message by the subscriber.

Abstract: A method includes a workload management (WLM) server that receives a first CHECK WORKLOAD command for a workload in a queue of the WLM server. It may be determined whether the workload is ready to run on a WLM client. If the workload is not ready to run, a wait time for the workload with the WLM server is dynamically estimated. The wait time is sent to the WLM client. If the workload is ready to run, then a response is sent to the WLM client that workload is ready to run.
