Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for automatically associating data with a resource as metadata based on a characteristic of the resource are disclosed. According to one method, at least one metadata association rule is obtained for a metadata associator. Each metadata association rule specifies a data value to be associated with a resource as metadata based on a characteristic of the resource. A user interface is provided for associating at least one resource with a metadata associator. In response to a resource being associated with the metadata associator via the user interface, the data value is associated with the resource as metadata based on the metadata association rule. The specified data value may be defined independently of both the resource and a file system with which the resource is associated.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for protecting information on a user interface based on a viewability of the information are disclosed. According to one method, a viewing position of a person other than a user with respect to information on a user interface is identified. An information viewability threshold is determined based on the information on the user interface. Further, an action associated with the user interface is performed based on the identified viewing position and the determined information viewability threshold.

Abstract: Establishing communication with a device includes detecting, at a first device, a physical interaction between the first device and a second device; at least one of obtaining at the first device and providing to the second device, a network address usable for establishing communication between the first device and the second device, the network address identified based on information associated with the detected physical interaction; and automatically wirelessly transferring content using the network address, wherein transferring content includes at least one of receiving content at the first device from the second device and providing content from the first device to the second device.

Abstract: A method and system for establishing communication with a device is provided. Aspects of an exemplary embodiment include detecting, at a first device, a physical interaction involving the first device and a second device; requesting assignment of a network address usable for establishing communication between the first device and the second device, wherein the network address is based on information associated with the detected physical interaction; and automatically transferring content between the first device and the second device using the network address based on information associated with the detected physical interaction.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for displaying windows on a graphical user interface based on relative priorities associated with the windows are disclosed. According to one method, relative priorities of a plurality of windows of a graphical user interface are determined. Further, relative priorities of a plurality of portions of at least one of the windows are determined. The windows are automatically arranged on the graphical user interface based on the relative priorities of the windows and based on the relative priorities of the portions. A higher priority window may cover a lower priority portion of a lower priority window to provide for a simultaneous viewing of the higher priority window and a higher priority portion of the lower priority window.

Abstract: A method for performing data operations using a publish/subscribe service includes providing a first tuple that includes data operation information that is configured to operate on a source data, providing for a first subscription by the first tuple to a second tuple that includes the source data, and providing for a second subscription by a subscriber to the first tuple. A notification indicating an update of the source data of the second tuple is received pursuant to the first subscription and in response to receiving the notification, resultant data is generated using the data operation information of the first tuple to process at least the updated source data of the second tuple. Thereafter, a notify message including the resultant data is generated.
