摘要:
A displayed document comprises an annotation widget, the widget associated with an annotation document and a corresponding annotation key in an annotation store. The annotation document associated with a workflow action program. A user with a predetermined privilege selects a widget and is presented with the annotation document. The user performs an annotation task modifying the annotation document and submits the annotation document to the annotation store, the submission triggering the workflow action program to progress the workflow to another step.

Disclosed are a client server annotation system for, and a method of, managing annotations for Web pages. The preferred client server annotation system comprises an annotation server for storing annotations; a set of Web page profiles, each of the page profiles being associated with one of the Web pages; and a client system including a client computer system. The client computer system includes instructions to execute a method comprising accessing Web pages, sending requests to the annotation server, locating at least one Web page profile, and using the located Web page profile to retrieve or store annotation information, from or to the annotation server, about the Web page associated with the Web page profile.
摘要:
Digital Fingerprints are generated for data objects in a system where separate annotation files are created for data objects. This permits cross heterogeneous system relationship of a data object with associated annotations. The digital fingerprint is saved in an annotation store along with a first relationship between the digital fingerprint and the location of annotations as well as a second relationship between the digital fingerprint and location of copies of the data object. The digital fingerprint can be generated by any system that has a copy of the data object. Annotations or data objects can be found by searching for the digital fingerprint and its relationships.

In response to a user request, an annotation form is presented to a user for annotating a target document or image in a database. The annotation form is associated with the target document. A runtime program is associated with the annotation form. The annotation form selected by the user provides prompts for annotation input. The annotation input is saved in an annotation database and the runtime program performs an action on behalf of the user. Preferably the runtime program action comprises analysis of elements of the target document.

A method, apparatus, and computer program product for graphically presenting compatible workflow steps to a user through a graphical user interface are disclosed. The method includes graphically displaying a plurality of steps in a workflow. A user's selection for at least one step in a plurality of steps to denote at least one selected step and at least one non-selected step is received. The method further includes determining if a set of one or more output parameters of the selected step is acceptable as an input of the non-selected step. An appearance of the non-selected step is graphically changed if the output parameters are acceptable. The method also includes determining if a set of one or more output parameters of the non-selected step is acceptable as an input of the selected step. An appearance of the non-selected step is graphically changed if the output parameters are acceptable.

A method, system, and computer program product for managing at least one work flow in a distributed system are disclosed. The method includes receiving a notification from a central storage system identifying a participant's information processing system as at least one participant in at least one workflow. The at least one workflow is analyzed to determine if at least one step of the workflow is currently executable at the participant's information processing system. The step is executed in response to determining that the step is currently executable at the participant's information processing system. Workflow update information is transmitted to the central storage system for association with the workflow.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for managing global annotations made for data elements that may be instantiated (e.g., displayed) by a variety of different type applications are provided. By anchoring the global annotations to the data element, rather than the particular data source containing the data element at the time the data element was annotated, the annotation may be retrieved from any application that instantiates or displays it.
摘要:
The present invention generally provides methods, systems, and articles of manufacture for managing an annotation system that includes storing annotations for a document family, i.e., a series of versions of a data source. Annotations created for one version of the data source may be viewed in context from both subsequent and prior versions of the same data source. Embodiments of the invention associate annotations with both a data source “family identifier” as well as a “version identifier.” Other than adding a family ID to the data source, the data source remains unchanged. The family ID is maintained across different versions of the data source, whereas version IDs are determined for a specific version of the data source. Version IDs can be constructed from each data source directly, and do not need to be stored.
摘要:
A method and system for displaying annotations is provided. The method includes displaying current data to a user through a GUI, displaying at least one of current and historic annotations to a user through the GUI, providing a user selectable link between the historic annotations and historic data associated with the historic annotation, and displaying the historic data to the user through the GUI when the user selectable link is activated by the user.
