Abstract:
Content from multiple remote/legacy consoles is aggregated within a central console to provide a single point-of-access for managing remote resources. Preferred embodiments deploy the central console as a network-accessible application, and this console application communicates with remotely-located console applications (and/or other locally-executing functions) that carry out tasks selected from the central console by an administrator and then return content generated by those tasks for rendering in the central console. The run-time environment used at the central console is not required to match the run-time environment of the remote/legacy consoles.
Abstract:
The present invention is a method, system and apparatus for producing a composite help view for an aggregation of applications. The method can include obtaining at least two separate help documents. Each of the separate help documents can have an association with a corresponding one of separate interface units aggregated together into a single aggregated view. Importantly, the separate help documents can be combined into a composition of help documents corresponding to the single aggregated view. Subsequently, the composition of help documents can be rendered in a help system view responsive to a request for help initiated in the single aggregated view.
Abstract:
A published event from a first content element executing within a framework may be detected. In response, a registry may be searched for one or more registered events that match the published event, and if a matching registered event is found, a second content element that registered said matching registered event may be instantiated to start executing within the framework. The second content element is dynamically aggregated into the framework based on the published event without the first content element needing to have previous knowledge of the second content element, and without the second content element needing to have previous knowledge of the first content element. The framework also does not need to be designed initially to deploy the second content element. Which one or more content elements to aggregate into the framework may be determined at run time rather than at design time.
Abstract:
A system for security management for applications associated with multiple user registries can include an integrated console configured to host a one or more applications or resource objects in corresponding realms. The system also can include one or more roles mapped to different ones of the resource objects and also to different users permitted to access the integrated console. The system yet further can include a user relationship system having associations with multiple different ones of the roles. Finally, the system can include console security management logic programmed to manage authentication for the users using realm of the resource object while not requiring a separate user registry for the integrated console.
Abstract:
Energy saving efforts should not compromise data center performance. An energy management application can determine usage patterns in historical energy usage data based on statistical analysis and energy models. Energy savings recommendations can be generated for future points-in-time based on the usage patterns. Business constraints can be applied to the energy savings recommendations to ensure that the energy savings recommendations meet performance requirements.
Abstract:
The present invention is a method, system and apparatus for supporting search and query operations in a composite help view for an aggregation of applications. The system can include an application aggregator configured to aggregate individual applications into a single aggregated view. The system further can include a help system configured to render a help system view having composite help documentation formed from at least two help documents, each of the help documents corresponding to one of the individual applications. Help invoking logic can be coupled to the help system and disposed in the single aggregated view. A search and query tool also can be coupled to the help system through a search and query interface. Finally, an index can be coupled to the search and query tool. The index can include keywords disposed in the help documents and title information for individual applications corresponding to the help documents.
Abstract:
A method for automatically propagating changes in user interaction effects across multiple user interface pages. The method includes selecting a first web based user interface page and activating a user interaction effect. Then producing a user interaction change message which is sent to a server side broker on the framework where it is queued before delivery. Then the user switches to a second web based user interface page with equivalent tasks to the first user interface page where the message may then be delivered to modify the second page to enable the action taken on the first user interface page.
Abstract:
In one general embodiment, a method includes, from within a single application running under control of an operating system, receiving a request to launch a first task, outputting a first tabbed page having a first tab and information relating to the first task, receiving a request to launch a second task, outputting a second tabbed page having a second tab and information relating to the second task, launching a sub goal modal to the first task, suspending access to the first task pending resolution of the sub goal, displaying information about the sub goal upon receiving user selection of the first tab during suspension of the first task, and allowing access to the second task during suspension of the first task.
