Abstract: The present invention provides a method, system, and computer program product for maintaining synchronization among replicated applications. The method comprises: detecting an externality in an application on a moderator and making an external call associated with the externality; and forwarding results of the external call to a replica of the application on a collaborator.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for threading documents using body text analysis. The method comprises: computing a fingerprint for each of a plurality of documents by analyzing text in a body of each document; comparing the computed fingerprints to determine a set of documents from the plurality of documents whose fingerprints are sufficiently similar; and ordering the set of documents to create at least one parent-child relationship.

Abstract: Under the present invention, an executable object such as binary or JAVA byte code corresponding to the software application is obtained. Based on an analysis of the software application, points for introducing the collaborative components are identified. A set of executable code (e.g., an Aspect) to introduce the collaborative components at the identified points is then defined and built. Thereafter, the set of executable code and the collaborative components are linked to the executable object.

Abstract: A system and method is provided which utilizes a threading service to offer enhanced features for a document management system including an email system. Various enhanced email features may be provided through one or more of the following components: a delete module, a reply module, a profile module, and a search module. The delete module enables a user to delete a selected message, a set of related messages, or the whole set except for the selected message. The reply module enables a user to send a reply message to all addresses associated and involved with an entire set of related messages. The profile module enables a dynamic interest profile to contain all relevant information from an outgoing message and a set of messages related to the outgoing message. The search module enables search results to include documents which match the user's query as well as documents related to the documents which match the user's query.

Abstract: A system allows a user to use address information from selected message to create a new message that is unrelated to the selected message. These improved reply options may include a “New Message To” command and a “New Message To All” command that do not establish a relationship between the reply message and the selected message that could be exploited by, for example, a threading service. In particular, these commands populate address fields of the new message with values from address fields of the selected message without populating any other fields that are used to identify relationships among messages.

Abstract: A system and method are provided such that a user has the ability to more easily scroll to documents of a particular date. In one embodiment of the invention, a processing module of an email system utilizes a calendar view to scroll email messages listed in an inbox view to a particular date. A “Scroll Inbox View to Date” command allows a user to scroll the message set of the inbox view to email messages corresponding to the particular date.

Abstract: A calendar bar utility with a special user interface may be integrated and displayed simultaneously with an electronic mail list inbox. The calendar bar user interface comprises a linear display arranged into multiple, chronologically-arranged, time periods. Upon selection of a specific time period, such as a day, or the current day, subdivisions of the time period, e.g. hours of a day, are displayed in a similar format. The calendar bar also allows multiple calendars, for example the personal calendar of the user, and a team calendar for multiple individuals, to be displayed simultaneously for easy access. Selection of a specific time period causes data associated with any event in that time period to be displayed next to the designated time period, or, alternatively, in a separate window. The data associated with the event may vary in detail and scope depending on the designer preferences, but will typically include the start and end times, the location, topic, type, i.e. call-in, video conference, etc.
