Patent number: 7788367Abstract: A system for monitoring a user's usage of a target application. Such a target application can, as examples, be a software program running on a computer or a workstation, an image forming device, an appliance, etc. The target application includes a user interface with a plurality of commands which a user can select. In the example of the target application being a software program, the commands may be icons displayed on a computer screen which a user can point to with a mouse pointer and then click on. In the case of the target application being an image forming device or an appliance, the interface may be an operation panel with buttons, a touch pad, etc. which a user can press. The present invention monitors the user's usage of such interfaces and logs data of the user's usage of such interfaces. The logged data is stored in the form of an abstract class, and the abstract class is sent to a sending unit. The logged data can then be communicated by the sending unit by Internet mail to a designated location.Type: GrantFiled: October 15, 2003Date of Patent: August 31, 2010Assignee: Ricoh Company, Ltd.Inventors: Tetsuro Motoyama, Avery Fong, Yevgeniya Lyapustina

Patent number: 6802059Abstract: A method and apparatus for transforming character strings that are contained in a unit of code. A conversion mechanism performs a macro substitution by transforming hard coded strings into unique macro strings. The conversion mechanism is configured to receive a set of computer instructions that are contained in one or more files. The conversion mechanism parses the instructions to identify character strings included within the computer instructions, while copying the files to one or more output source code files. Upon identifying each string, the conversion mechanism generates a unique macro string as a substitute for the original string. The conversion mechanism then substitutes the unique macro string for the identified string in the source code of the computer program. The conversion mechanism also generates an entry in a macro list that associates the unique macro string with the identified string for use during compilation of the computer instructions.Type: GrantFiled: August 2, 1999Date of Patent: October 5, 2004Assignee: Ricoh CorporationInventors: Yevgeniya Lyapustina, Tetsuro Motoyama
