Patent number: 11251987Abstract: Provided is a method, computer program product, and system for modifying IoT device settings based on changes in user abilities. A processor may detect a plurality of IoT devices associated with one or more users. The processor may determine an ability baseline for the one or more users when interacting with the plurality of IoT devices. The processor may monitor interactions of the one or more users with the plurality of IoT devices. The processor may detect a change in the ability baseline for the one or more users when interacting with at least one IoT device of the plurality of IoT devices. In response to detecting the change, the processor may adjust one or more settings related to the at least one IoT device. The processor may propagate the adjustment to the one or more settings of the IoT device to the other IoT devices of the plurality.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2019Date of Patent: February 15, 2022Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Susann Marie Keohane, Marc Kevin Johlic, Sharon D. Snider, Mary Jo Mueller, Khwaja Jawahar Jahangir Shaik

Patent number: 9296395Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for cognitive state supported automotive travel are provided in the illustrative embodiments. A detection is made that an event in a vehicle is outside of acceptable bounds for that event. A determination is made whether the event being outside of acceptable bounds is a result of a cognitive state of a person operating the vehicle. Responsive to the event being a result of the cognitive state of the person, an indication of the cognitive state of the person being below a threshold level of cognitive abilities is generated. An action corresponding to the cognitive state is performed. The action causes the vehicle to operate with improved safety.Type: GrantFiled: October 25, 2013Date of Patent: March 29, 2016Assignee: INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATIONInventors: Kember Anne-Rivers Forcke, Marc Kevin Johlic, Susann Marie Keohane, Mary Jo Mueller

Patent number: 8903726Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for voice entry of information are provided in the illustrative embodiments. A conversion rule is applied to a voice input. An entry field input is generated, wherein the conversion rule allows the voice input to be distinct from the entry field input, and wherein the voice input obfuscates the entry field input. The entry field input is provided to an application, wherein the entry field is usable to populate a data entry field in the application.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2012Date of Patent: December 2, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Brian John Cragun, Marc Kevin Johlic

Patent number: 8640252Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for obfuscating entry of information are provided in the illustrative embodiments. A set of additional aspects to be applied to a part of an input is communicated to a provider of the input. The set of additional aspects is distinct from a second set of additional aspects to be applied to another input. An obfuscated input corresponding to the part of the input is received. A subset of the set of additional aspects is present in the obfuscated input. The part of the input from the obfuscated input is recovered by removing, using a processor and a memory, the subset of the set of additional aspects from the obfuscated input. An entry field input corresponding to the input is generated. The entry field input is sent to an application executing in a data processing system.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 2012Date of Patent: January 28, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Brian John Cragun, Marc Kevin Johlic

Patent number: 8584001Abstract: A method, data processing system, and computer program product for managing bookmarks. An application program, executed by a processor unit, identifies an external bookmark associated with a function in response to receiving a user input requesting information about the function in an application program executed by a processor unit in a computer, wherein the external bookmark points to a webpage available from another computer. The application program displays the identified bookmark.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2010Date of Patent: November 12, 2013Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Marc Kevin Johlic, Emi Kondo Olsson
