A method, system, and computer program product for detecting a tailgate event between two vehicles moving in a forward motion is provided. The two vehicles include a first and second vehicle, one of the two vehicles being an offending vehicle and the other of the two vehicles being an affected vehicle. The method includes determining a distance between the two vehicles. The first vehicle is ahead of the second vehicle. The method also includes calculating a safe distance range between the two vehicles based upon one or more of speed, weight, and safe braking range values of at least one of the two vehicles. The method further includes comparing the distance and the safe distance range and activating a recording device on the affected vehicle if the distance is less than the safe distance range indicating an unacceptable range value, the offending vehicle being responsible for causing the unacceptable range value.

A mechanism for sharing tasks is provided in which individuals in a share group may signal their intent to complete individual shared tasks and communicate that intent to other individuals in the share group. A required time for completion of the shared tasks may be associated with an individual's signaling of the intent to complete the shared task. The completion of the shared task by the individual signaling intent to complete may be monitored and, if not completed within the associated required time, the performance of the shared task may again be shared with the individuals of the share group. In this way, another individual may signal that individual's intent to perform the shared task and the process may be repeated until the shared task is completed.

A system, computer program product and method of keeping track of an attachment that has been detached from an e-mail message are provided. Generally, a table on which an attachment that has been detached from an e-mail message is cross-referenced to its storage location is used. Further, a link is inserted into the e-mail message to facilitate access to the detached attachment. If the attachment is ever moved from its storage location to a new storage location, the cross-referencing table is updated to reflect the new storage location. The link is also updated to facilitate access to the attachment at the new storage location.

Group management of video device playback provides a mechanism for shared playback of recorded video content. Digital video playback devices are linked to a central management system through network connections which manages the shared playback, or a peer-to-peer network connection is used without the central management system. One user may be responsible for all actions affecting content playback, or all users may be permitted to affect content playback, with certain actions of those users limited in type or quantity. Group membership and group member permissions can be accomplished using the digital playback device through interactive interfaces implemented by the digital video playback device, or can be accomplished using a personal computer coupled to the device or central management system. Users may comment on shared playback using interactive video-based commentary functionality that may provide a text channel or graphical images that may be selected from a set of pre-configured commentary items.

Approaches for designating and/or selecting broker systems in a publication-subscription (pub-sub) messaging environment are provided. In one approach, a subscriber system may be designated as a broker system based on a capability of the subscriber system to function as a broker system for its peers. In another approach, a broker system may be selected from among a plurality of broker systems based upon a cache directory that identifies the content/messages that each broker system may have cached. If a particular broker system has previously cached content that is at least similar to an intended message, that particular broker system may be selected for distributing the intended message to a set of subscriber systems.
摘要:
An approach for caching potentially repetitive message data in a publication/subscription messaging environment is provided. Specifically, when a message is received on a broker system from a publisher system, the broker system analyzes the message for potentially repetitive data. Once such a set of data has been identified, a unique identifier/key corresponding thereto will be sent back to the publisher system and the set of data will be stored in a (data) cache. Upon receipt, the publisher system will cache/store the unique identifier in a (key) cache. Then, when the publisher system generates a future message that would contain the same set of data, the publisher system will substitute the unique identifier (as retrieved from the key cache) for the set of data to yield an abbreviated/truncated message.
