Abstract: These solutions concern transforming a communication network into a scalable network to also automate personalized rapid healthcare support. They integrate biometric identification capabilities into a network entity of, or a resource communicably connectible with, a serving network by using computers to mediate biometric identification and location data. Network operators will provide always on enhanced emergency connectivity for mobility and roaming for user equipment to leverage biometric identification for rapid healthcare support and to produce a unified result set, without risk of undue disclosure of raw biometric data or of selected portions of health profile information. These techniques also support personalized, urgency-supported, healthcare to optimize biometrically-link identifiers/network keys (PUSH TO BLINK), even over a visited operator's IP services.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for transmitting a plurality of files of a plurality of file systems associated with a corresponding plurality of users to each one of the users. In one embodiment, a jukebox service identifies files from file systems associated with each user requesting to consume the transmitted content. In one embodiment, the jukebox service identifies the files based in part on a plurality of disc jockey preferences provided by a disc jockey. The jukebox service then generates a jukebox playlist of the identified files having an order that is generated based at least in part on a playback profile associated with each one of the files. For instance, the playback profile may describe a playback frequency of the respective file. The jukebox service may then transmit the files over a network to clients of requesting users according to the order established by the jukebox playlist.

Abstract: Some of these new methods harness distributed computing capabilities to integrate biometric abstraction processes, wireless network connectivity, and specialized software for mediation, to produce a unified result set. A mediator that enables rapid health care support is used in a computer system having a database of information to be shared with authorized requesters, under privacy rules or other pre-defined constraints. The methods, using specialized software for mediation, are preferably enabled to process a securely transmitted remote data request as a query to verify or identify an individual, whether it is sent via a network that is wireless in any part, or not.

Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for providing adaptive timeline views of data. In accordance with the concepts and technologies disclosed herein, data is displayed in an adaptive timeline view in which data is presented using a time scale. The time scale can be modified to increase or decrease a span of time displayed by the adaptive timeline view, or a span of time can be shifted without affecting the time scale applied to the data. Motion can be used to convey information about the data during transitions from a first view to a modified view. As such, the adaptive timeline view can convey various layers of information to a user interacting with the adaptive timeline view.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments of a method and system for providing a simplified listing process for sellers. A computing device obtains contact information for a seller and a representation of an item that may be purchased through an electronic marketplace. This information is obtained without requiring the seller to register with the electronic marketplace. Using the representation of the item, a seller listing for the item in the electronic marketplace is generated. The seller is notified through the contact information when a buyer purchases the item from the seller through the generated seller listing.

The definitions of the data schema, the user interface, and the business logic are each received in a platform-independent format and used to generate the platform-independent data application.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for providing a two-tier failover service. A request to access content by an application associated with an application identifier may be identified. A first record corresponding to the application identifier may be retrieved from a database information table. The first record may include a reference identifier, a database name of a database, and a failover value. A second record corresponding to the reference identifier may be retrieved from a server information table. The second record may include an indication of a first server computer as a primary server computer and an indication of a second server computer as a secondary server computer. A connection specification to either the first server computer or the second server computer may be generated based on the first record and the second record.

Abstract: An application module generates a query that may involve retrieving data from a local data storage source or from an external data storage source. The application module retrieves metadata to form a query tree stored in the local data storage source and uses the query tree to ascertain one or more sub-queries necessary to complete the query and whether the necessary data for each sub-query is stored locally or externally. Based on the location of the data to complete a sub-query, the application module uses the services of an internal query processing layer if external data is involved for the sub-query. The application module uses the services of a query processing layer in the local data storage source if the data is local. Once all the sub-queries associated with the query tree are performed, then the overall query results are returned to the application module.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for replicating service requests. A service request is obtained from a client. A primary service and a secondary service are determined based at least in part on the service request and a routing configuration. The secondary service corresponds to another version of the primary service. The service request is routed to the primary service and potentially replicated to the secondary service. A service response to the service request is obtained from the primary service and then sent to the client.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for pre-fetching data from a service in advance of obtaining an asynchronous callback for the data from a client. It is determined whether a network page requested by a client is configured to prompt the client to initiate an asynchronous callback for data that may be pre-fetched. The data is pre-fetched from a service before obtaining the asynchronous callback for the data from the client. The data that has been pre-fetched from the service is sent to the client in response to obtaining the asynchronous callback for the data from the client.
