Abstract: A review facility and review method for interactively reviewing an item, such as a block of code, by a group of reviewers and collecting comments from the reviewers. An author provides the item as text for preparation for interactive review. The text is prepared, tagging each line and making the tagged text available to reviewers, e.g., as links on a web page. Reviewers interactively comment on individual lines and review previously entered comments. An abbreviated formal review may follow the interactive review.

Abstract: An improved method, apparatus and computer system for automatically reporting of faults in a telephonic network is described. When a network fault is detected, a determination is made by a fault analyzer whether or not the detected fault is a reportable fault. If the detected fault is a reportable fault, then an alarm report based upon the reportable fault is generated which is then distributed based upon a distribution list. The distribution list includes only those destination addresses associated with the reportable fault. The alarm report in distributed to any number and kind of communications devices such as, a pager, an email server, and a control console.
