  • Patent number: 10171473
    Abstract: A set of context profiles containing profile content rules for filtering which content within a set of personal productivity applications (such as e-mail, chat, calendar, and contacts applications) is accessible by a user. Content rules support filtering content by, for example, content originator, and/or subject matter. The context profiles are centrally maintained for control of integrated, non-integrated, and/or independently administered personal productivity applications.

  • Publication number: 20170277524
    Abstract: A method and associated systems for dynamic container deployment with parallel layers. A processor creates an image file by processing each instruction of an image-container file in sequential order, where each instruction adds a layer to the image file that identifies either an unconditional or a parallel software layer of a container. Each unconditional layer is assigned a unique level but parallel layers may share a same level. The processor then deploys an instance of a container by deploying layers of the image file to the container in the order in which they were created by the image-creation file. If an image-file layer is marked as parallel, it is deployed only if an associated condition is satisfied, such that no two deployed layers have the same level.

  • Publication number: 20110289007
    Abstract: A sensitive user data management method and system. The method includes presenting, by a negotiable content sensitive user data service (NSUDS) computing system from a consumer accessing a consumer computer in communication with a service provider computing system, a request for verifying if a provider computing system is associated with an NSUDS registry. The NSUDS computing system verifies an association with the NSUDS registry and connects to the consumer computer. The NSUDS computing system presents default sensitive user terms associated with sensitive user data for the consumer. The sensitive user data is associated with an order request. The NSUDS computing system receives from the consumer in response to the default sensitive user terms, a command associated with the default sensitive user terms.
