Methods and apparatus are provided for identity verification for at least one user to a text-based communication. An identity of at least one user to a text-based communication is verified by obtaining a plurality of characteristic features of at least one prior text-based communication between the at least one user and at least one additional user; comparing the plurality of characteristic features to a current session of the text-based communication; and verifying the identity of the at least one user based on a result of the comparison. The text-based communication can optionally be suspended if a user is not verified and/or an alarm can be generated.

A method for creating and using a short-hand interpretation dictionary in a collaboration environment includes creating or editing a document in a collaboration environment, said document comprising at least one short-hand notation; and replacing the at least one short-hand notation with an interpretation from at least one short-hand dictionary.

A method of knowledge sharing using a computer system is provided. The method includes: receiving a question electronically submitted by a user; forwarding the question and at least one response option to at least one expert using a first computer interface; monitoring selected response options from the at least one expert; and selectively presenting the selected response options to the user using a second computer interface.

A graphical user interface for allowing an end-user to navigate and edit a hierarchy of objects and relationships is disclosed. The user can add or remove patent and children data objects to or from the view by clicking on a given node, allowing the hierarchy to be examined to any desired level of detail. The user can drag-and-drop nodes from a palette to add new nodes to the database. Similarly, the user can add new relationships by drawings a link between two nodes in the view. The user can delete objects or relationships by clicking on them. The user can modify objects or relationships by clicking on them and changing their properties. The graphical user interface automatically scales and re-adjusts to accommodate the modified object relationships.
摘要:
A method and system for generating problem resolution flowcharts, whereby users do not author flowcharts directly but instead author a dependency matrix of questions and answers related by state or underlying problem cause. After creation of a matrix of questions and answers, a corresponding flowchart is then calculated based on the information in the dependency matrix, and also based on the likelihood of the various problems and their causes. The probabilities of problems and their causes may be estimated or may be calculated from historical data accumulated by use of the flow chart, or some combination of the two. These probabilities are incorporated into the answer cells of the dependency matrix. The resulting flowchart is tested and evaluated, and the results of testing and evaluation are used to make modifications in the matrix of questions and answers. The flowchart is then made available for execution by a problem determination engine, usable by staff at a help center or directly as self-help to a customer over a network. Experience from use of the problem determination engine is accumulated for use in further refinements of the dependency matrix and its probabilities.

Methods and apparatus are provided for automatic un-muting of a telephone call. A muted telephone of a user is automatically un-muted during a telephone call by evaluating whether the user is facing the telephone while speaking during the telephone call. The telephone can optionally be automatically muted when the user stops speaking and is not facing the telephone. A telephone call of a user can also be processed by evaluating whether the user is facing the telephone while speaking during the telephone call; and providing a message to the user indicating that the telephone is muted if the user is facing the telephone while speaking during the telephone call.

The invention enables server administrators (SAs) to improve their productivity and performance. With the methods and systems described herein, the prior art needed to search for appropriate tools for appropriate tasks is minimized and/or eliminated. Easier scripting and automation that does not require implementation across tools is provided. A consistent logical place is provided for all resources to be used. Standardization of tools enables improvements in service quality. Tools may be provided using one unambiguous authoritative data model, which eliminates data inconsistencies between sources. With the invention, updates to service delivery clients may be delivered more quickly. The invention also reduces costs for developing, deploying, and maintaining a tightly integrated service delivery client. Integration may be provided from the bottom up rather than after the fact. With the invention, common base objects are provided for events, problem and change records, and other system administration artifacts.
