Patent number: 8645314Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for communicating interactive forms and reports in messaging applications. The apparatus for communicating interactive forms and reports in messaging applications is provided with a plurality of modules configured to functionally execute the necessary steps of selecting a markup language instruction, copying the markup language instruction and post the markup language instruction into a clipboard as a markup language object, pasting the markup language object into a data entry field associated with a messaging application, and injecting the markup language object into a message transmission to a second messaging application. These modules in the described embodiments include a selection module, a copy module, a paste module, and an injection module.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2008Date of Patent: February 4, 2014Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Deanna Lynn Quigg Brown, Dinesh Chandra Coca, Louis Daniel Echevarria, Melissa Jorgette Garcia, Andrew Gary Hourselt, Elena Schneider, Nedzad Taljanovic

Patent number: 8392904Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for efficiently collecting code updates. The apparatus includes a generation module that identifies sites that provide code updates based on information about the computing system and its components that is already stored in the system. A supplement module identifies additional sites by monitoring Internet traffic on the computing system and looking for certain keywords, patterns, and regular expressions in visited sites. The user may also manually enter sites to supplement the sites automatically identified by the generation module and the supplement module. A monitor module monitors the identified sites for changes and determines when a new code update is available. A notification module notifies the user of the code updates when the monitor module determines that they have become available. The apparatus may also include a download module that automatically downloads new code updates for the user to install.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 2009Date of Patent: March 5, 2013Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Melissa Jorgette Garcia, Lourdes Magally Gee, Kavitha Gudapati, Andrew Gary Hourselt

Patent number: 7917521Abstract: Provided are techniques for state information sharing. At least one of user information and browser information is stored in a first configuration file in a first file format associated with a first browser application. A change in at least one of the user information and the browser information in the first configuration file is recognized. The changed at least one of the user information and the browser information in the first file format is converted to a second file format associated with a second browser application. A second configuration file is updated with the changed at least one of the user information and the browser information in the second file format. In response to starting the second browser application, a user and browser state is set using the user information and the browser information in the second configuration file.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2008Date of Patent: March 29, 2011Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Deanna Lynn Quigg Brown, Dinesh Chandra Coca, Melissa Jorgette Garcia, Andrew Gary Hourselt, Elena Schneider

Publication number: 20080215986Abstract: A management console managing a data handling system stores user interface panel elements, and an attached device sends directions to the management console to select at least one of the stored user interface panel elements for a graphical user interface (GUI) panel for the device. The device sends directions to the management console to correlate at least one device command for the device to the GUI panel for the attached device; and the management console generates GUI panel(s) employing the selected user interface panel element(s); and calls commands in response to operation of inputs to the GUI panel(s), the correlated command being available to be called. Further, the attached device(s) send directions to the management console as to labeling of the GUI panel for the attached device; and the management console inserts label(s) in the user interface panel element per the labeling directions.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 1, 2007Publication date: September 4, 2008Inventors: JOSEPHINE FAITH BAYANG, Melissa Jorgette Garcia, Kevan Daniel Holdaway, Andrew Gary Hourselt
