Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel method for receiving a plurality of attribute sets from a set of host computers, each attribute set associated with a group of one or more flows that is created by using a key to associate individual flows into the group of flows. The appliance, in some embodiments, merges two identified attribute sets into one merged attribute set and analyzes the merged attribute set to identify a set of properties of the flows in the groups of flows associated with the two attribute sets. In some embodiments, a visualization process includes identifying machines as members of groups and identifying machines that are connected. The visualization process, in some embodiments, also generates a graphical user interface that can be used to select groups of machines, domains, or individual machines and displays contextual attributes relevant to the selected group, domain, or machine.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for visualizing a realization status of configuration changes for a set of logical entities of a logical network. The method generates a first presentation of a list of logical entities and a realization status for each logical entity in the list, where the realization status indicates whether all configuration changes for the logical entity have been realized. In response to a selection of a particular logical entity in the displayed list for which at least one configuration change has not been realized, the method generates a second presentation comprising a view of pending configuration changes for the selected particular logical entity.

Abstract: Methods and systems may provide for generating an activity plan for a user of a platform and generating a resource plan based on the activity plan and a current state of the platform. Additionally, one or more conflicts between the activity plan and the resource plan may be resolved. In one example, generating the activity plan includes predicting one or more of a meeting, a trip, a presentation, a media consumption session or an application usage.

Abstract: A user interface for a radiotelephone 1 is described in which the user is able to select components from a variety of sources including multimedia sources and the Internet. The user is then able to combine the components in a message and furthermore edit them to add expression to the message and to set delivery conditions for the message. The message may be archived for later use or immediately sent to a third party either separately or as an attachment to another file.

Abstract: A hand held communication device having a display, the display having a plurality of different regions, at least one function being selectable via at least one region and a touch sensitive region, the touch sensitive area being arranged so that movement with respect to the touch sensitive area region causes an indicator to move across said display wherein the indicator is arranged to move only from one region to another.

Abstract: A communication system, method, and apparatus are described for synchronously sharing online documents within a wireless telecommunications network. The system allows a main information center and a mobile terminal to regularly and mutually update important data in synchrony. It also allows real time online document sharing for a mobile terminal with a wireless connection to other terminals. Furthermore, it allows real time online calendar sharing and group calendar sessions.

Abstract: A communications terminal handset having a translucent outer casing and a light source arranged for illumination of a substantial area of the casing.
