摘要： Disclosed are a method of and system for enterprise-wide migration. The method comprises the steps of creating instances of databases for a migration, for billing and reporting, and repositing reports; gathering information on the organization, location, hardware, and software affected by said migration into a database for planning said migration; and building an inventory of the affected hardware and software using an inventory tracking tool or an inventory mailer. Migration hardware and software is ordered based on said planning and said inventory, using an inventory tool; and labor, hardware, and software as installed are tracked and billed, using said billing and reporting database. Agents for said creating, gathering, building and tracking are enabled using an agent control facility.

摘要： Under the present invention, an initial distribution list of electronic message recipients within an organization undergoing an IT migration is generated using a personnel directory of the organization and at least one selection criterion. Once initial electronic message recipients are known, messages will be generated and sent using information from a mailing database and a designated schedule. User records for each of the initial electronic message recipients will be created in an inventory database and will include user information from the personnel directory as well as message information. Based on responses to the initial electronic message, follow-up and final electronic messages can be sent to respective distribution lists, and corresponding information stored in the user records of the inventory database.

摘要： A method and system for updating a database structure. The database structure includes a dynamically changing list of control documents. A control document specifies tasks to be performed on the database structure. An agent finds an approved control document on the list such as by looking into a view of control documents. Processing the approved control document includes causing an execution of at least one task on the approved control document. Execution of a such task includes updating of the database structure, and may be implemented by the agent that found the control document or by another agent called by the agent.

摘要： Discloses are a method of and system for allocating resources in an enterprise. The method comprises the steps of identifying a number of areas of the enterprise that need resources, and determining an initial allocation of resources to each of said areas. The method comprises the further steps of establishing an algorithm to assign weights to said initial allocations, using said algorithm to determine weighted allocations of resources for each of said areas, and keeping said weighted allocations for a given time period. As resources become available during said defined time period, said available resources are assigned to said areas based on said weighted allocations.

摘要： A method and computer system for transforming a portion (e.g., a view) of a database into a custom spreadsheet. The transforming includes determining whether to omit in the custom spreadsheet a column that is in the view, determining whether to add to the custom spreadsheet a column that is not in the view, or both. The transforming may also include implementation of rules that control how various portions of the custom spreadsheet are configured.

摘要： In a tracking radar system target glint and multipath sometimes produce signals which falsely indicate high acceleration rates of the target. These signals cause the boresight of the antenna to be driven away from the direction in which the target actually lies.To avoid this problem, received signals from a receiver are fed through a switch which is opened whenever the target appears to have an acceleration or velocity above a threshold value. The threshold value is varied so that the proportion of the time during which the switch is open is kept approximately constant. Thus, if there is a period during which a large number of high acceleration or high velocity signals appear from the receiver (for example is there is a very high noise level) the switch still remains closed for a certain proportion of the time period. This ensures that the tracking system never loses the target while also ensuring that false tracking due to target glint and multipath is minimized.A circuit is included so that, when the switch is open the antenna is not brought to a complete halt but rather is allowed to continue to move in the direction that it was moving before the switch was operated.

摘要翻译： 在跟踪雷达系统中，目标闪烁和多路径有时会产生错误地指示目标的高加速度的信号。 这些信号导致天线的视轴被驱动远离目标实际位于的方向。 为了避免这个问题，来自接收机的接收信号通过开关被馈送，只要目标似乎具有高于阈值的加速度或速度，该开关就被打开。 阈值变化，使得开关打开的时间的比例保持近似恒定。 因此，如果存在从接收器出现大量高加速度或高速度信号的时段（例如，存在非常高的噪声电平），则开关仍然保持关闭该时间段的一定比例。 这样可以确保跟踪系统不会丢失目标，同时确保由于目标闪光和多路径引起的错误跟踪最小化。 包括一个电路，使得当开关断开时，天线没有完全停止，而是允许在开关被操作之前继续沿其移动的方向移动。

摘要： The present invention provides a method, system, and computer program product for the on-demand creation and distribution of customized dynamic contracts. At least one business opportunity is extracted from an opportunity database. For each extracted business opportunity, a credit score for a customer associated with the extracted business opportunity is obtained and a dynamically modifiable contract for the extracted business opportunity is generated. The dynamically modifiable contract is distributed to a contact associated with the extracted business opportunity, who presents the dynamically modifiable contract to the customer associated with the extracted business opportunity. The contact can modify the dynamically modifiable contract, if necessary, during negotiations with the customer, to provide a contract that is acceptable to the contact and the customer.
