Abstract: Personalized searching including providing in a search portal a personal search term list; receiving from a user a navigation identification message; and inserting index records in a personalized search index. Inserting index records in a personalized search index typically comprises retrieving a document from a navigation location and indexing the navigation location and keywords from the personal search term list that occur in the retrieved document. A navigation identification message may comprise a search keyword and inserting index records in a personalized search index may include indexing the search keyword with the navigation location in the personalized search index. Embodiments typically include creating and transmitting to users, in dependence upon the personalized search index, search criteria, and user identification, responses to search query messages.

Abstract: This invention relates to blends of linear low density polyethylene copolymers with other linear low density polyethylenes or very low density, low density, medium density, high density, and differentiated polyethylenes. The invention also includes articles produced from the linear low density polyethylene and polyethylene blends described.

Abstract: A system for automatic identification and notification of relevant program defects. A defect report server opens a defect description in response to receiving the defect description from an end user. Then, the defect report server extracts each word and phrase contained within the program defect description. After extracting each word and phrase, the defect report server searches a plurality of defect databases for each extracted word and phrase. If an extracted word or phrase is found in a defect database, the defect report server calculates a word relevancy percentage for each of the extracted words or phrases found in the search. Finally, if the word relevancy percentage for each extracted word and phrase exceeds a threshold, the defect report server sends all relevant defects associated with each extracted word and phrase that exceeded the predetermined threshold to a defect owner.

In response to receiving a signal from a remote control device, a macro corresponding to the signal is identified, the identified macro contains a set of codes used to control a set of multimedia devices. The set of codes is transmitted, wherein the set of codes causes a series of events to occur in the set of multimedia devices.

Abstract: A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for storing data in a file system. A determination is made as to whether space is available in an inode of the file in the file system. The data is stored into the inode in response to space being available. Additionally, data for a file may be stored in a block that is partially filled with data from another file. Data for a file may be stored using either the inode or by sharing a block. Data also may be stored using both of these mechanisms.

Abstract: A method for enabling dynamic response to I/O failure caused by an out-of-space condition in a file system hosted on a logical volume. An I/O failure response (FR) daemon is implemented to bridge operations between the Logical Volume Manager (LVM) executing in user space and I/O control functions executing in the kernel space. When the file system does not have sufficient space to complete an I/O, the I/O controller signals the I/O FR daemon, which executes the following sequence of operations: (1) alert the LVM that the file system requires additional space; (2) provide a notification to the application level about the resizing; and (3) re-start the I/O operation once the resizing operation completes. The LVM receives the alert and initiates an automatic expansion of the file system to include additional storage space from reserve space on the volume group. The I/O is completed once the expansion operation completes.
