摘要:
A method is provided for automatically using address information from a selected message to create a new message that is unrelated to the selected message in response to a user action, such as selecting one of a plurality of improved reply options. These improved reply options may include a “New Message To” command and a “New Message To All” command that do not establish a relationship between the reply message and the selected message that could be exploited by, for example, a threading service. In particular, these commands populate address fields of the new message with values from address fields of the selected message without populating any other fields that are used to identify relationships among messages.

A computer-based method and system for just-in-time semantic information retrieval is disclosed. A user interface detects user interaction with a displayed semantic entity. In response, a search member uses semantic information about the displayed entity and automatically searches for information about the subject entity. The search employs system and/or external knowledge bases and returns highly relevant results and information with increased specificity due to the semantic basis. A sidebar unobtrusively displays to the user the search results initially obtained without user request or demand, i.e., on the user's behalf. The sidebar enables the user to dismiss the search results and to effectively copy or export the search results as desired.

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for deploying a location based applications providing crowdsourced structured points of input for data entry. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for deploying a location based application providing crowdsourced structured points of input for data entry includes the selection of a location based application component, such as a map, for inclusion in a deployable application and the definition of a point of input for the location based application component. In this regard, the point of input can include at least one user interface control accepting data input of structured data. Finally the deployable application can be uploaded to a deployable application repository over a computer communications network for deployment to requesting mobile devices over the computer communications network.

Computer system and method automatically generate a social interest network. The social interest network indicates or represents (1) respective relevance between system users and taggers, and (2) respective affinity between users and taggers. A tag-based search engine searches and retrieves tagged contents. The search engine also retrieves semantic information associated with the tagged contents and tagger. Semantic information about the searcher-user is compared to the search retrieved semantic information. A comparator determines respective relevance of taggers to the searcher-user and respective affinity of the searcher-user to the taggers. The social interest network results and enables collaboration between users/taggers and filtering of various search results.

A computer method and system provides for graphical specification of inquiries and includes a corresponding progressive summary. The inquiries operate on stream data. Users graphically specify an inquiry in a graphical user interface according to an ontology. The invention system generates a plain-text translation of the graphical description of the inquiry and displays the generated plain-text description in a progressive summary in the graphical user interface. The system continually updates and generates the display of the plain-text description during user construction of the inquiry. This provides feedback to the user for improved construction of the inquiry.
摘要:
A virtual workspace is provided for a user with a number of electronic devices, in which information can be exchanged among the electronic devices through a number of connections between the electronic devices. The virtual workspace is provided by determining where services are located and the type of the services, determining one or more data formats associated with data accessible by one or more of the electronic devices. A portion of the data has a given one of one or more data formats. An electronic device is selected based at least in part on predetermined criteria and the given data format. A route through the connections to the selected electronic device is determined, where the route may comprise a given one or more of the connections. At least the portion of the data associated with the given data format is routed to the selected electronic device. The portion of the data is utilizable for presentation by the selected electronic device when received by the selected electronic device.

A system is provided which utilizes a threading service to offer enhanced features for a document management system including an email system. Various enhanced email features may be provided through one or more of the following components: a delete module, a reply module, a profile module, and a search module. The delete module enables a user to delete a selected message, a set of related messages, or the whole set except for the selected message. The reply module enables a user to send a reply message to all addresses associated and involved with an entire set of related messages. The profile module enables a dynamic interest profile to contain all relevant information from an outgoing message and a set of messages related to the outgoing message. The search module enables search results to include documents which match the user's query as well as documents related to the documents which match the user's query.
摘要:
A computer implemented method and system presents search result or other data generated in response to a request by a user. The search results are formed of one or more items. The invention system corresponds each item to a respective person. A screen view is generated showing a hierarchy of people including the people corresponding to the items of the search results. Indicated in the screen view is the extent of connectedness between the user and the people corresponding to the items of the search results. The invention system displays indications of the items of the search results in the screen view in a manner illustrating the items in context of the shown hierarchy. This enables a user to (i) easily and readily assign respective confidence levels to items of the search results, and to (ii) determine relationships among people without explicitly requesting the information from others.
摘要:
A system to monitor and report the use of communication software applications in a computing environment including an instant messaging system, that provides local users with information describing detected uses of communication software applications by remote users. The monitored communication applications may include, for example, electronic mail, voice over IP applications, on-line meetings, and other specific types of communication applications, as well as instant messaging activities. The system potentially stores specific information regarding each use of the monitored communication applications, and sends the communication application information to one or more server process that stores the information in association with a user identifier provided with the information. The stored communication application information is then broadcast by the server process to client processes that have registered with the server process to receive communication application information associated with that user identifier.
