  • Patent number: 11144437
    Abstract: A method is provided for categorizing a problem report in a repository of a problem reporting system as an enhancement request or as a defect. Based on the problem report being the defect and having a high severity level, determining a score indicating a probability that a text portion of the problem report includes problem reproduction steps. In response to the score indicating the probability of problem reproduction steps, flagging the problem report to automate. For each problem report to automate, copying the text portion of the problem report to an automated test script, whereby the test script runs in a continuous pipeline.

  • Patent number: 10825029
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a web-based software application, in which a server at a publisher compiles a predetermined list of items, such as regulatory, contract, budgeting, and legal issues, and stores them for periodic download to a client. The client would subscribe to the publisher, to receive information on a predetermined set of items. Periodically the server will scan its database and according to the client subscription, will retrieve and forward the predetermined items desired, to the client. The forwarded items will be compiled by the client and presented to the user in an easily viewable and searchable format. The user may choose a particular item to review, and then, if the user determines the item to be a relevant one, the user may transfer the item information to a monitoring software application for future monitoring and/or internal implementation as an issue.

  • Patent number: 9763280
    Abstract: Establishing a wireless sound system is achieved using mobile devices, by: obtaining identifying information on multiple mobile devices within wireless proximity to a control node; automatically ascertaining acoustic-related specifications for the multiple mobile devices using the identifying information; dynamically assigning, based on the acoustic-related specifications, the multiple mobile devices to different component roles; and sending, from the control node of the sound system, wireless signal channels to the multiple mobile devices based on their different component roles to provide acoustic output. In one or more implementations, at least two mobile devices of the multiple mobile devices have different acoustic-related specifications, and two or more of the component nodes within the sound system have different desired specifications.
