Patent number: 9299055Abstract: To avoid the need for off-line collaboration, a primary user who is attempting to enter data required for computer-based process may, as part of the data entry process, delegate data entry tasks for specific input fields to designated delegate users who are more likely to be knowledgeable about the data to be entered. Data entry operations performed by the primary user are recorded and used to build a transaction model which will enable a server to provide required data input screens to delegate users. Data entered by the delegate users is merged with data entered by the primary user to meet the requirements of the computer-based process.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2007Date of Patent: March 29, 2016Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Hisatoshi Adachi, Masaki Wakao, Masato Noguchi

Patent number: 8370750Abstract: A history acquisition unit acquires a history of operations with a web browser by a user and stores the history in a storage device. A search unit accesses the storage device to search a history of a first operation for inputting a parameter and a history of a second operation performed after the first operation. A generation unit generates a service program that provides services that the user has received through the operations with the web browser, and stores it in the storage device. The service program makes a computer function as: an input acceptance unit that accepts input of a new parameter instead of the parameter input through the first operation; and a processing unit that performs, in response to the new parameter, inputting the new parameter in the web page and processing associated with the second operation beforehand in this stated order with respect to the web browser.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 2008Date of Patent: February 5, 2013Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Hisatoshi Adachi, Masao Hara, Motoharu Inoue
