Abstract: A networked software solution comprising a plurality of servers, and application programs at various of the servers forming components of the solution. License information for all networked applications that form part of the solution is stored at each server that forms part of the solution. At relevant times, a server might determine from it's stored license information whether or not the applications of the solution are all operating according to unexpired licenses. In this way all servers of a solution receive and store the license information pertaining to other required applications of the solution and can determine at any time if the solution is validly licensed.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to application installation and provide a method, system and computer program product for autonomic application installation. In one embodiment of the invention, an autonomic application installation method can be provided. The method can include initiating an installation of an application onto a target computing system, remotely retrieving a configuration for the target computing system previously established for other computing systems installing the application, applying the remotely retrieved configuration to the target computing system prior to installing the application onto the target computing system, and installing the application onto the target computing system.

Abstract: A system, operating on a first computerized device, deploys an agent to a second computerized device. The agent, operating on the second computerized device, obtains the configuration data. The system receives, at the first computerized device, from the agent operating on the second computerized device, configuration data specific to the second computerized device. The system creates software for the second computerized device utilizing the configuration data. The software is customized based on the configuration data specific to the second computerized device. The system then deploys the software to the second computerized device for operation on the second computerized device.

Abstract: A user's personal home page can be dynamically updated by desired content originating on external web pages as long as the content continues to occupy the same position on the external web page. The owner of the personal home page configures the update system by specifying at least the network path to each selected web page, the pixel coordinates of the desired content on the selected web page, the pixel coordinates at which the desired content is to appear on the personal home page. The external selected web pages are pushed or pulled to the user's system where the desired content is extracted and written into a video buffer. Once in the video buffer, the content can be used to update the personal home page.
