  • Patent number: 11042513
    Abstract: Tagging a resource in a network with a tag belonging to a tag type includes creating, using a processor, a tag and relating the tag to the resource, categorizing the tag into a tag type, registering the tag type in a registry, associating tag type attributes to the tag type, associating a subset of the tag type attributes of the tag type to the tag, and associating a tag type attribute value to each member of the subset of the tag type attributes of the tag. The tag, the tag type, the subset of tag type attributes of the tag, and associated tag type attribute values are stored. Using the processor, a dynamically linkable executable program logic is triggered based on the subset of tag type attributes and the tag type attribute values.

  • Patent number: 11023548
    Abstract: A computer implemented method for searching resources via an application in a user interface framework that initiates a first search request via a search engine interface and receives a search result and associated resource types in response to the first search request. The method further maps the associated resource types to at least one user interface control class of a plurality of user interface control classes resulting in at least one selected class group and dynamically maps the at least one selected class group to a corresponding instance of user interface controls. The method further renders the search result and the corresponding instance into a faceted user interface, receives an input via the corresponding instance rendered into the faceted user interface, filters the search result based on the input to generate a filtered search result, and renders the filtered search result into the faceted search interface.

  • Patent number: 11010360
    Abstract: A method for extending a tag of an information resource in an information network may be provided. The method may include providing a group of tags, stored in a database, in a user interface, and selecting at least one tag out of the group of tags and linking the tag to an information resource using the user interface. Furthermore, the method may include extending the tag, such that the resulting extended tag may be a semantically structured string of characters building a first expression including a first operand, a first operator and a first value, wherein the tag may be the operand, such that the extended tag is machine-interpretable by a parser, such that the information resource may be tagged with the machine-interpretable, extended tag.

  • Patent number: 9126629
    Abstract: A motor vehicle structure has an A pillar (5), a sill, a front wheel (8) and a slide-off surface (50) for the front wheel (8). The A pillar (8), as viewed in cross section, exhibits a higher strength in an inner region (49) than in an outer region (48) in order to realize the slide-off surface (50).

  • Patent number: 9123025
    Abstract: A method for detection of spam in a tagging system can include assigning negative points to each tag in the tagging system responsive to the tag matching at least one spam filter criteria, assigning trust points to a tagger responsive to the tagger's behavior matching at least one tagger filter criteria, wherein the at least one tagger filter criteria depends upon tags assigned by the tagger that are assigned negative points, and restricting a tagging functionality of the tagging system for a tagger if a first predefined threshold of negative trust points is exceeded.

  • Patent number: 8495081
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for federating tags across multiple web-based systems in order to provide an improved tag management system which allows users of a community to upload their contributions to the content of the content server systems, including uploading their tags. The method includes: storing tags in a central database, wherein the central database accesses the resources and the tags of the multiple systems; retrieving all tags from the central database; displaying the tags to a user; receiving a search request by the user, wherein the user search comprises selection of specific tags or specification of tag search criteria; generating a tag cloud containing references to tag-associated resources which result from the search, wherein the resources may reside in any one of the systems; and displaying the resources.
