Publication number: 20080002218Abstract: A system for providing document conversion services that uses XML (eXtensible Mark-up Language). A document type definition (DTD) defines tags and attributes for document conversion services, and includes a number of global variable definitions. Each “convertor” tag defines a document conversion filter, using a “filter” tag contained within it. Within each convertor tag, multiple input and output tags describe the capabilities of the convertor, and can be used to define the input document types and output document types for the associated filter. The filter tag can have a “class” attribute or the like, that may be used to provide a fully qualified class name for the filter. A “remote” tag defines whether the conversion for an associated filter is performed on an identified remote server computer system. The global variables are visible to all the convertor entities and may be used to activate logging of activities for various purposes.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2007Publication date: January 3, 2008Inventors: Steve Wang, Robert Weir

Publication number: 20070265947Abstract: A transaction entity handles event messages associated with events of interest. At least one type of event is identified that is of interest to a user. Each type of event further corresponds to an event type that is to be repeated by a transaction entity to an aggregating entity. Further, a description is associated with each identified type of event. The transaction entity identifies an occurrence of an event that is an identified type of event and generates an event message comprising a token that associates the user with an account maintained by the aggregating and the description that is associated with the identified type of event corresponding to the identified occurrence of the event. The event message is transmitted to the aggregating entity.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2006Publication date: November 15, 2007Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Brian Schimpf, Edith Stern, Robert Weir, Barry Willner

Publication number: 20070265946Abstract: An account is associated with a token that is adapted to be distributed to at least one transaction entity. An event message is received from the transaction entity that comprises the token and optional additional information corresponding to an event of interest to a user. The event message is associated with the account based upon the token received with the event message and at least one indicator of the event of interest to the user is aggregated with any other existing indicators in the account. The indicators in the account are made available to the user for inspection.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2006Publication date: November 15, 2007Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Brian Schimpf, Edith Stern, Robert Weir, Barry Willner

Publication number: 20070265945Abstract: An event message is created that is associated with an event of interest to a user. A transaction entity obtains a token that corresponds to an account of an aggregating entity. Additionally, at least one type of event is identified. Each identified type of event comprises an event type that is of interest to a user and is intended by the user to be reported to the aggregating entity. The transaction entity identifies an occurrence of an event that corresponds to a previously identified type of event and creates an event message that includes the token. The transaction entity then transmits the event message to the aggregating entity. The transmitted event message is adapted to correspond to at least one indicator of the occurrence of the event that is provided by the aggregating entity for review by the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2006Publication date: November 15, 2007Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Brian Schimpf, Edith Stern, Robert Weir, Barry Willner

Publication number: 20070265807Abstract: A user inspects at least one indicator of an event. The user enables a token corresponding to an account of an aggregating entity to be received by a transaction entity and identifies at least one type of event of interest to be reported by the transaction entity to the aggregating entity. The user obtains and inspects at least one indicator from the account of the aggregating entity, where each obtained indicator is adapted to be created by the aggregating entity based upon an event message received from the transaction entity. The event message comprises the token, which is adapted to be used by the aggregating entity to identify the account and the event message corresponds to an occurrence of an event of at least one type of event of interest to be reported by the transaction entity to the aggregating entity.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2006Publication date: November 15, 2007Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Brian Schimpf, Edith Stern, Robert Weir, Barry Willner

Publication number: 20060048424Abstract: The present invention is a rail mounted forward trigger mechanism featuring in-line linkage between the primary and secondary triggers. Access to adjustment features provides adjustability while simultaneously allowing the mechanism to remain installed. The linkage is also hinged and mounted coaxially with the disconnect pivot point of a weapon, thereby allowing field stripping the weapon without removing the linkage. Connection to the primary trigger of the host weapon is ideally accomplished with a can and roller assembly for smoother and more controlled actuation. An electrical embodiment is also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 12, 2005Publication date: March 9, 2006Inventor: Robert Weir

Publication number: 20060048431Abstract: The present invention is a rail mounted sling fitting for threaded type slings. A loop body terminates with at least two clamp ends that, when tightened, grasp a rail installed on a weapon. The preferred tightening means is a bolt extending diametrically through the clamp ends. An alternative embodiment extends the lower jaw of each clamp until they almost make contact, which prevents the sling from interfacing with the rail itself.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 8, 2005Publication date: March 9, 2006Inventor: Robert Weir

Publication number: 20060026517Abstract: A method for adding words to an online dictionary used for spellchecking is described. A spellchecker module compares words of an electronic document with words in the online dictionary and identifies a word in the electronic document that is missing from the dictionary. After a user indicates a desire to add the missing word to the dictionary, the spellchecker module determines at least one related-word form of the missing word. The related-word forms depend upon the part of speech of the missing word. The spellchecker can prompt the user to identify the part of speech and then to verify each determined related-word form. The spellchecker concurrently adds the missing word and at least one related-word form of the missing word to the online dictionary in a single ‘add-to-dictionary’ operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2004Publication date: February 2, 2006Applicant: International Business Machines CorporationInventor: Robert Weir
