  • Patent number: 9313288
    Abstract: A system for notification of a change to content of a document may include a processor and a module operable on the processor for allowing a user to dynamically select a variable amount of content of the document for which a notification of a change to the selected variable amount of content is desired. The system may also include a module operable on the processor for detecting a change to the selected variable amount of content being made by another user. The system may additionally include a module operable on the processor for creating the notification of the change to the selected variable amount of content. The system may further include a module operable on the processor for transmitting the notification of the change to the selected variable amount of content in response to the change to the selected variable amount of content of the document being saved by the other user.

  • Patent number: 8843506
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for selecting a portion of a content repository for replication including receiving an input describing one or more desired relationship patterns for replication, generating a query for the desired relationship patterns, identifying content items of a content repository matching the desired relationship patterns, and selecting the identified content items of the content repository. The input is received at a graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI operates on a computer. The relationship patterns are associated with an ontology describing relationships between content items in a content repository. The content repository includes a plurality of content items.

  • Patent number: 8832131
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for selecting a portion of a content repository for replication including monitoring a usage pattern of a content repository, determining one or more preferred relationship patterns for replication in response to the usage pattern, identifying content items of the content repository matching the preferred relationship patterns, and selecting the identified content items of the content repository. Monitoring the usage pattern is performed by a pattern recognition engine operating on a computer. The content repository includes two or more content items. The relationship patterns are associated with an ontology describing relationships between content items in the content repository.

  • Patent number: 8316006
    Abstract: A method for generating an ontology may include selecting, by a processing device, a tag in a tag cloud. The method may also include searching, by the processing device, an online encyclopedia for content corresponding to the selected tag and determining, by the processing device, at least one category to which the content belongs in the online encyclopedia in response to finding the content corresponding to the selected tag in the online encyclopedia. The method may additionally include adding, by the processing device, a class to the ontology corresponding to the at least one category of the content in the online encyclopedia.
