    摘要: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for topological display of user interface elements. An input/output module receives the selection of a UIE. A topology display module displays a topology view of the selected UIE and a child UIE of the selected UIE. A relationship display module displays a modified navigation relationship indicator (NRI) for each navigation relationship between UIEs wherein at least one UIE in the navigation relationship comprises modified functionality, a new NRI for each navigation relationship between UIEs wherein at least one UIE in the navigation relationship comprises new functionality, and an existing NRI for each navigation relationship between UIEs wherein no UIE in the navigation relationship comprises modified functionality. The modified functionality may comprise plug-in functions and upgraded functions. The new functionality may comprise a new object.

    摘要: A method, system, and program are provided for managing flexible events within an electronic calendar. A calendaring controller schedules fixed events requiring a fixed time slots and flexible events that are flexible for scheduling over a particular time period for a particular duration, wherein the particular time period is greater than the particular duration. The calendaring controller sets each flexible event at a particular time slot within the particular time period for the particular duration. Responsive to the calendaring controller detecting a request for a new event for an additional time slot overlapping the particular time slot, the calendaring controller repositions the flexible event to at least one other time slot of the particular duration during the particular time period to allow for scheduling the new event during the additional time slot.

    摘要: Non-hierarchical relationship UIs (“topology UIs”) are difficult to scale to hundreds or more items. An embodiment of this invention provides indicators and quick access controls for the nodes in navigation tree that appear more than once in a hierarchy—where a pure hierarchical navigational tree falls short. The navigational tree is structured by grouping all matching nodes together. The display area displays the most frequent and the concatenated labels of the semantically grouped redundant nodes. A set of contextual proximity and similarity information and an exception list are stored in a semantic database which is configurable by system administrators. These navigation area controls and indicators will preemptively handle non-hierarchies directly within the navigation tree.

    摘要: The present invention concerns methods and apparatus for enabling manual control over selection of a value for at least one operating parameter of a computer system resource. Manual control is enabled by de-coupling a pointer of a graphical indicator and control from an automated system advisor. During automated operation, the automated system advisor selects the value for the parameter of the computer system resource as indicated on a scale of the graphical indicator and control by the pointer. When the pointer of the graphical indicator is under manual control, a user can select the value of the at least one operating parameter of the computer system resource using the pointer of the graphical indicator and control. The present invention also concerns methods and apparatus for disabling manual control over selection of a value for at least one operating parameter of a computer system resource by re-coupling the pointer to an automated system advisor. The present invention further concerns hybrid control modes that permit users to exercise a degree of control over operations of an automated selection process in a graphical indicator and control.

    摘要: The invention concerns methods and apparatus for generating and controlling a slider control for simultaneously changing values of two variables. In the methods and apparatus of the invention a graph having two axes is displayed, wherein the axes correspond to first and second variables. The values of the first and second variables may be simultaneously adjusted using a slider control displayed in a two-dimensional region between the axes. As a user adjusts the slider control and changes values associated with the two variables, the methods of the present invention calculate the effects of the adjustment on a value of a third variable. A graphical component is then used to depict the updated value of the third variable. Additionally, curves corresponding to constant values, or ranges of values, of the third variable are displayed in the two-dimensional region to assist a user in selecting values for the first and second variables.
