Abstract: The present invention provides a method and system for storing and retrieving tags. Each tag is associated with a resource, upon a user's request. A tagging GUI is displayed which presents the available tags for one particular resource and/or a tag cloud GUI is displayed which presents tags for more than one resource. The tagging GUI allows to assign new tags to single resources. The tag cloud GUI enables users to search for resources which have been assigned certain tags. In the tag cloud GUI the relevancy of each single tag is visually reflected by its weighting factor which is determined by the frequency of occurrence.

Abstract: A server system and methodology include the following operations. A request for tags associated with a resource is received from a tag widget associated with the resource. Responsive to the request, a tag weighting engine is executed that identifies the tags and determines, respectively, individual overall weighting factors for each of the tags. The tags and associated overall weighting factors are forwarded to the tag widget within the client. The individual overall weighting factors for a particular tag is based upon a combination of weighting factors including a context weight factor for the particular tag. The context weighting factor for the particular tag is based upon a past context for the particular tag specified by a past user and an active context in which a user of the tag widget is operating.

Abstract: Integrating a plurality of third party service interactions into a portal including a Web content management system includes receiving a data structure, associating the data structure with a selected profile out of a plurality of profiles based on the origin of the data structure, and transforming content of the received data structure, using a declarative mapping associated with the selected profile, into an intermediate data structure. The intermediate data structure may be provided to a presentation layer of the portal. A signal causing a rendering of the intermediate data structure may be triggered via a portlet of the portal to a display. Captured input from the portlet from the intermediate data structure may be transformed to the data structure using the declarative mapping associated with the selected profile. The data structure may be sent.

Abstract: A method for adapting a workflow of a content management system comprises setting an allowed action for a user, creating at least one information item depending on the allowed action for the user, in which the at least one information item comprises content to be published and a first information item status level indicative of a present status level of the content within the workflow, and executing the workflow which comprises stages each corresponding to a respective information item status level, such that a next stage of the workflow is determined based on a combination of different types of user status information, indicative of a status of the user, and the first information item status level.

Abstract: A portal system comprises a portal connected to at least one social backend, a portal object generator for creating a page in the portal, and a backend processing component. The portal system further performs a method comprising: integrating functionality of said at least one social backend into said portal system; implementing association information as meta data entries containing information about a social object of said at least one social backend; receiving a notification about creation of new portal objects by an integration component; creating a new instance of a social object within said at least one social backend by said integration component; receiving a new identification from a newly created social object by said integration component; inserting new social object identification into meta data of said newly created social object; and representing said social object as a portal object to a portal user.

Abstract: A trigger message indicative of a potential change to a publishing workflow is received. The trigger message is processed, resulting in a workflow modification message that includes a content item identifier, a related semantic identifier indicative of a semantic of the workflow modification message, and workflow characterizing metadata. The publishing workflow is retrieved by selection using the workflow characterizing metadata. At least one publishing workflow action of the retrieved publishing workflow is modified based on the workflow modification message, and the modified publishing workflow is executed.

Abstract: A portal is connected to a social backend. The portal comprises an integration component communicating with the social backend. Functionality of the social backend is integrated into the portal system by creating at least one portal object that is associated with at least one social object. The integration component comprises a portal listening component listening to events triggered by running applications of the portal, and creates an event list by filtering events associated with the social backend. A backend processing component keeps portal applications in synchronization with the social backend regarding changes on a portal side. A backend query component queries application programming interfaces of the social backend for current social objects and their states. A portal model processing component calculates actions based on passed in states of current social objects from the backend query component, and invokes corresponding application programming interface calls on the portal.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products to perform an operation for validating and adapting a GUI structure to a screen of a client device. The operation comprises receiving by the client device a software agent together with a device dependent arrangement rule. The software agent is adapted for analyzing received GUI code for identifying GUI elements to be rendered on the screen and determining a relative arrangement of the rendered GUI elements. If the relative arrangement is not compliant with the device dependent arrangement rule, the software agent determines a distance between GUI elements of the relative arrangement and a relative arrangement of the GUI elements in accordance with the device dependent arrangement rule, amends the GUI code to re-arrange the GUI elements towards the improved arrangement, and re-renders the GUI elements for the screen using the amended GUI code.

Abstract: A network-based communication and information discovery solution that pertains to network-accessible resources and the use of interlinks among resources. In one embodiment, dynamic interlinking of resources is proposed, wherein the resources reside in a web-based system and are accessible via web-clients. The resources can be representable by an administrator in a graph-like structure interlinking the resources with each other and thus defining a navigation model. An extended navigation model can be implemented by a user-generated, individual or collaborative interlinking functionality.
