20090157683Method and System for Accessing Selected Content - A system, method and computer product for accessing content by receiving as input an anchor, where the anchor is associated with selected content within an existing document, the document for example being an existing web page, and upon selecting the anchor, displaying the selected content to the user. Also disclosed is a system, method and computer product for identifying content, creating an anchor for the selected content and transmitting the selected content to one or more users over a communication link.06-18-2009
20100235361Optimizing Questionnaires - Online and other electronic surveys are increasingly being looked upon as highly useful and versatile tools for gauging popular opinions in a variety of areas. Challenges continually arise in terms of optimizing questionnaires so as to maximize their effectiveness in mapping trends among a population over time. There is broadly contemplated herein, in accordance with at least one embodiment, of the invention, the automation of the usage of value dependencies by way of exposing and eliminating redundancy in survey or questionnaire databases. Dynamically, updated information can be used to continuously evolve a selection of questions, while fairness can be ensured in this selection by averting a situation of continual non-selection of certain questions.09-16-2010

20090300006TECHNIQUES FOR COMPUTING SIMILARITY MEASUREMENTS BETWEEN SEGMENTS REPRESENTATIVE OF DOCUMENTS - Keyword frequency data for a plurality of document-derived segments is represented in a matrix form in which each segment is represented as a vector of dimensionality equal to the number of keywords. The matrix may be subdivided into a plurality of sub-matrices, each preferably corresponding to a non-overlapping portion of the plurality of keywords. When determining a similarity measurement between any pair of segments, at least a portion of the keyword frequency data for each sub-matrix's non-overlapping keywords are used to determine a sub-matrix dot product for the pair of segments. The resulting plurality of sub-matrix dot products are then summed together in order to provide the similarity measurement. Keywords that are synonyms of each other may be accommodated through the modification of keyword frequency data. Where the keyword frequency data in the matrix representation is relative sparse, compressed views of the matrix representation may be provided.12-03-2009
20100254604METHOD FOR THE LOGICAL SEGMENTATION OF CONTENTS - A document to be segmented is converted into a common representation format, if necessary. Parsing of the document results in a document model that is analyzed based on at least one structure-dependent function to identify segments within the document. In one embodiment, the structure-dependent function may comprise a template, or a best-fit template of a plurality of templates, used for comparison with the document model. In other embodiments, the structure-dependent function may comprise table of contents information, font properties within the document model and/or an average segment size determined according to previously identified segments in one or more additional documents that are related to the document under consideration. Semantic-content dependent functions may be applied to further refine the analysis by identifying sub-segments within the extracted segments, or by identifying segments that may be properly merged according to the similarity of their respective semantic content.10-07-2010

20110048031MAGNETO-CALORIC REGENERATOR SYSTEM AND METHOD - A regenerator having a thermal diffusivity matrix is presented. The thermal diffusivity matrix includes magneto-caloric material having multiple miniature protrusions intimately packed to form a gap between the protrusions. A fluid path is provided within the gap to facilitate flow of a heat exchange fluid and further provide efficient thermal exchange between the heat exchange fluid and magneto-caloric material. A first layer is disposed on each of the miniature protrusion to physically isolate the heat exchange fluid and magneto-caloric material, wherein the first layer further includes a soft magnetic material configured to simultaneously enhance a permeability and a thermal efficiency of the thermal diffusivity matrix.03-03-2011

Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090037933METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACCESSING A COMPATIBLE LIBRARY FOR AN EXECUTABLE - The illustrative embodiments described herein provide a computer-implemented method, apparatus, and computer-usable program code for accessing a compatible library. The process receives a file name associated with a library reference. The library reference is included in an executable, and indicates a library used for executing the executable. The process receives environmental variable information in response to identifying an unavailable library in a secondary memory. The unavailable library is associated with the file name. The process accesses the compatible library from a shared library segment using the file name in response to receiving the environmental variable information. The compatible library is associated with the file name. The process utilizes the compatible library to execute the executable.02-05-2009
20110088033PROVIDING THREAD SPECIFIC PROTECTION LEVELS - A method, system and computer program product is disclosed for providing thread specific protection levels in a multithreaded processing environment. The method comprises generating a group of threads in a process, one of the group of threads opening a thread entity, and that one of the group of threads specifying one or more levels of access to the thread entity for the other threads. In one embodiment, when a first of the threads attempts to perform a specified operation on the thread entity, the method of this invention determines whether that first thread is the one of the group of threads that opened the thread entity. When the first thread is not that one of the group of threads, the first thread is allowed to perform the specified operation if and only if that operation is permitted by the specified one or more levels of access.04-14-2011
