A method for use in a contract manufacturing framework, comprising the steps of (a) providing (802) a database including a plurality of service provider data structures, wherein the plurality of service provider data structures include descriptions of a plurality of service providers, and wherein the database further includes a plurality of links to information,(b) identifying (804) a service provider data structure based on request data from a user, (c) identifying (806) a link based on the request data, (d) sending (808) the user the identified service provider data structure, (e) sending the user the identified link, and (f) allowing (810) the user to obtain additional information utilizing the identified link.

The present invention establishes a trusted market place (5) which allows goods and services to be transacted on the Internet between business entities (7) and certain type of consumers called "networked consumers"(11) who can be properly authenticated without requiring each to obtain an authenticating device. The market players are the business entities (7), the networked entities (9), and the networked consumers (11). In this market structure, a plurality of business entities (7) have access to the market place (5), and they place details of goods and/or services to be sold on-line. The networked consumers (11) can access the market place to purchase the goods and services, but at least the registration must occur through a networked entity (9) having an authenticating system. Because the authentication is performed via the networked entities (9), no authenticating system is required by the networked consumers (11) individually.

An autodiscovery system provides content credentials to customer premise equipment through an event-driven architecture. The autodiscovery system includes several modules for implementing the event-driven architecture, such as an autodiscovery front-end module, an autodiscovery back-end module, and a broadcast activation module. The autodiscovery system may also include a subscriber database that stores subscriber records that identify subscribers associated with a level of service, a customer premise equipment identifier, or both. The modules of the autodiscovery system may also communicate with a conditional access system that communicates the content credentials to a data carousel. When the content credentials are made available on the data carousel, the autodiscovery front-end module may notify the customer premise equipment that the content credentials are ready for retrieval from the data carousel.

The compositional event based modeling of integrated applications (CINEMA) tool provides a way to extend a modeling environment using legacy event based applications, such as Graphical User Interface (GUI) APplications (GAPs). CINEMA allows modelers to extend the toolbox of the modeling environment by creating modeling elements that represent GUI objects of GAPs. CINEMA generates source code that allows an integrated system to control and manipulate the GUI objects of GAPs represented by the modeling elements used to create a model of the integrated system.

The application relates to the integration of heterogeneous VoIP servers such as IP-PBX servers and presence servers. The integration relates in particular to remote call control whereby a soft-phone such as a Microsoft Office Communicator client, MOC client, which is served by a SIP server such a Microsoft Office Communicator server, MOC server, remotely controls an IP phone which is served by an IP PBX. The IP PBX may not support a CSTA interface but rather another telephony API such as Java telephony API actions. Therefore a CSTA gateway (120) which is integrated in an adaptation proxy (100) translates between CSTA events and JTAPI actions. The integration furthermore relates to the interaction of heterogeneous VoIP domains which utilize dissimilar SIP message formats. Therefore a SIP adapter (160) which is integrated in said adaptation proxy (100) translates between the different SIP message formats. The integration furthermore relates to the presence information integration between different client devices served by different SIP servers, in particular when the different client devices are associated to the same user. Therefore a presence integrator (140) which is integrated in said adaptation proxy (100) maps between different state types.

A test structure for testing graphical user interface applications (GAPs) modularizes test scripts by separating statements that define GAP test logic from statements that navigate to GAP objects. Composition rules weave the statements together to generate the test scripts that are executed to test the GAP. Because the test structure is modular, test logic can be reused across different GAPs and different versions of the same GAP. Reusing test logic is not only an efficient practice from a test engineer's point of view, but also leads to a reduction in test programming errors. The modular test structure also facilitates the efficient modification of test scripts to account for modifications in the underlying GAPs, greatly reducing the time, cost, and resource expenditures needed to arrive at updated test scripts.

A method for managing maintenance of equipment includes identifying a planned MRO task and a first set of components associated with the task and determining a set of probabilities associated with a second set of components and indicating that the second set of components will require maintenance during the planned MRO task. The method further includes developing a plan for maintenance of individual items in the second set of components and, upon discovering a need for maintenance of at least one item of the second set of components, accessing the plan and integrating it with a plan of planned MRO tasks for the equipment.

Technician control, in which a control system is configured to control scheduling and dispatch operations for work orders being handled by technicians. Multiple technician devices are each associated with one or more technicians, are configured to communicate, over a network, with the control system, and also are configured to provide output in response to communications that are received from the control system and that are related to the scheduling and dispatch operations performed by the control system. A set of scheduling configuration options may be pre-defined and user input weighting at least one of the scheduling configuration options relative to other of the scheduling configuration options may be received. A scheduling application used by the control system to perform scheduling operations may be configured based on configuration data that reflects the weighting and scheduling operations may be performed using the configured scheduling application.

The subject matter of this specification can be embodied in, among other things, a computer-implemented process for providing a travel-related offer for a travel passenger that includes receiving a request for a travel reservation system to initiate a travel reservation for a passenger. The travel reservation system may include passenger name records (PNRs) that each correspond to a passenger and may store reservation information for the passenger. The process may also include transmitting a passenger identifier to a customer feedback module, which may include customer profiles with data related to passengers' satisfaction with past service. The customer feedback module may be used to identify a customer profile associated with the passenger identifier and generate a travel-related offer based on the data related to the passenger's satisfaction with the past service provided to the passenger. The travel-related offer may be presented via an interface.
