Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for information swarming in a wireless sensor network (WSN). In an embodiment of the invention, a method for information swarming in a WSN can include receiving in an overhearing node of the WSN, relay data sensed by a sensor at an originating node of the WSN and transmitted along a relay path exclusive of the overhearing node from the originating node to an aggregation point in the WSN. The method also can include determining a relevance of the relay data in reference to at least one relevance rule. Finally, the method can include forwarding additional data acquired at the overhearing node by a sensor at the overhearing node to the aggregation point over the WSN in response to determining the relay data to be relevant.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to software patches and, more particularly, to detecting software patch dependencies in an environment where multiple software patches may be installed. A method, computer program product, and system for detecting software patch dependencies receives one or more first lists of software code segments, including changes to the software code segments associated with one or more first software patches. A second list of software code segments that includes software code paths executed at run-time by a second software patch is received. One or more matching code segments are identified. Dependencies of the second software patch based on the one or more matching software code segments are identified. The dependencies represent software patches required by the second software patch. A list of the dependencies is generated.

Abstract: An aspect of the present invention provides a computer-implemented method for presenting items in a hierarchy comprising parent items and sub-items. The method comprises the steps of: identifying one or more parent items in the hierarchy, wherein all sub-items of the identified parent items possess a particular property; and presenting the hierarchy in a manner to indicate that all sub-items of the identified parent items possess the particular property.

Abstract: Method, system, and computer program product for building a voice prompt menu for a collection of portlets by acquiring a list of portlets, building a voice menu comprising voice menu items to activate each of the portlets, acquiring a portlet profile containing customization information, and adapting the voice menu using the customization information in the portlet profile. The web portlet may define custom characteristics for consideration by the voice aggregator, for instance, in the positions for its menu items in the hierarchy of the voice portal menu.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a tungsten carbide tipped circular saw blade (S) The method and blade are characterised by pressing a rib pattern (R) into the body of the blade (S). The rib pattern strengthens the blade body and avoids warping, particularly in thin blades, e.g. less than 1 mm thick.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a tungsten carbide tipped circular saw blade (S) characterised by the steps: (a) supplying a stainless sheet steel strip or blank to a laser cutting machine; (b) laser Cutting an arbor (11) and the periphery profile of the blade (S) according to a predetermined computer controlled pattern; (c) brazing the tungsten carbide saw tips to their respective locations on the periphery of the blade (S); (d) electropolishing the blade (S) to remove brazing residues and heat discolouration from the surfaces; and (e) grinding the final cutting profile to each of the tungsten carbide tips.
