摘要： A critical notification is reliably delivered to at least one participant in a real-time communication session. A candidate delivery channel is selected, and a set of one or more communication state variables associated with the candidate delivery channel are identified. Current values associated with the communication state variables and determined, and a determination is made as to whether the current values associated with the communication state variables indicate that the notification can currently be reliably delivered using the candidate delivery channel. If the notification cannot currently be reliably delivered using the candidate delivery channel, an alternative delivery option is selected that may include using an alternative delivery channel and/or delaying delivery of the notification.

摘要： A method, system and computer program product for sharing the contents of a presentation in a web conference. A web conference server in a web conferencing system extracts a document that is likely to be viewed by the presenter during the web conference prior to the presenter actually viewing the document. The web conference server processes the extracted document into a displayable screen image which is sent to the participant computers in the web conference to be cached. When the presenter computer actually displays the extracted document, the web conference server informs the participant computers to display the cached screen image. Since the screen image of the document has already been cached by the participant computers, the document will be more quickly viewed by the participant computers and will reduce the time lag between when the presenter views the document and when the audience views the same content.

摘要： Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for displaying search results for weighted, multi-term content searches. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for displaying search results for weighted, multi-term content searches is provided. The method includes specifying different weighted search terms for a content search and performing the content search for both content and content meta-data in a search engine. The method also includes retrieving search results for the content search and computing a relevance for each of the weighted search terms. Finally, the method includes presenting both the search results and also a relevance indicator for each computed relevance for each of the weighted search terms found in connection with each of the search results in a user interface to the search engine.

摘要： The present invention is a system, method and apparatus for converting a slide show presentation for use within a non-presentation application such as a Web conferencing or virtual classroom application. In accordance with the present invention, a slide show presentation in its native format can be processed to extract slide title information for each slide in the slide show presentation. Additionally, important text within slide further can be extracted. Each slide in the slide-show can be converted to a raster image and disposed within markup. The markup can be annotated with the important text and both the markup and the slide title can be provided to the non-presentation application for use in concert with the non-presentation application. In this way, the context of each slide can be preserved for use within the non-presentation application as can an image of each slide itself.

摘要： A method and system for an awareness service is provided. One or more collaborative contexts can be set for a first user within a set of users using the awareness service. One or more subsets of users can be defined within the set of users corresponding to the one or more collaborative contexts, respectively. Furthermore, a level of availability can be defined for the first user with respect to each of the subset of users. Next, an online status can be published on the awareness service for the first user. The online status can display an availability message to a second user. And, the availability message can have the highest level of availability selected from a group consisting of every level of availability defined for the first user with respect to every subset of users that includes the second user.

摘要： A computer receives a first attempt at communication made via a first communication channel and stores a first attempt record corresponding to the first attempt at communication in an attempts file. The computer receives a second attempt at communication made through a second communication channel that is different from the first communication channel and stores a second attempt record corresponding to the second attempt at communication in the attempts file. The computer queues at least a portion of the first attempt record and at least a portion of the second attempt record. The computer determines that the first attempt at communication and the second attempt at communication were created by a common sender, determines a third communication channel for replying to the common sender, and transmits a third attempt at communication to the common sender via the third communication channel.

摘要： A computer receives a first information related to a communication sent to a user device of a second person. The computer determines a user device of a first person using the first information. The computer sends a context information request to the user device of the first person. The computer receives a context information reply responsive to the context information request. The computer sends context information of the context information reply to the user device of the second person. The computer releases the communication to the user device of the second person.
