Abstract: A system, method, and program product is provided that operates during an instant messaging session conducted between a first participant and a second participant. During the session, message sent to or from each participant are displayed in a first instant messaging session window. The two sets of instant messaging messages are displayed in a time-based order in the first instant messaging session window. A notification is received corresponding to one of the displayed instant messaging messages that is displayed in the first instant messaging session window. In response to receiving the notification, the selected instant messaging message is displayed in a second instant messaging session window while still including the selected instant messaging message in the first instant messaging session window.

Abstract: A system and method for improved communication notification forwarding on a network. An instant messaging (IM) server program receives at least one communication notification from a first client among a collection of clients on a network, wherein the at least one communication notification is targeted to a second client among the collection of clients. A notification manager compares a current network performance level to a predetermined threshold. In response to said comparing the current network performance level to the predetermined threshold, the notification manager parses a first list to determine if a first user indicator associated with said first client is present on the first list, wherein the first list indicates a first collection of user indicators of clients from which communication notifications are to be forwarded as high priority communication notifications.

Abstract: A target is autonomically tested using a number of test cases. Dependencies among the test cases exist. A dependency between a first test case and a second test case means that where testing of the target using the first test case results in failure, testing of the target using the second test case is not performed. The dependencies among the test cases are constructed using one or more dependency rules. The dependency rules are updated while testing of the target using the test cases is performed, such that new dependencies among the test eases revealed during testing are incorporated into the dependency rules. Autonomic testing in this way provides for more intelligent testing of the target without human interaction and/or human intervention.
