20080320563SYSTEM AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ASSOCIATING EVENT CATEGORIZATION AND ROUTING WITH SECURITY AUTHORIZATION ROLES - Under the present invention, when an event is received on a server, it is stored and then categorized. In being categorized, an event group pertaining to the event is identified. Based on the group of events, a set (e.g., one or more) of destinations to which the event should be routed can be determined. The group of events is then associated with an access control list (ACL) that contains entries identifying users (or groups of users) and their permissions to interact with events in that group. Once the association is made, the event and optionally the ACL is routed to the appropriate destinations. Based on the permissions contained in the ACL, the destinations will interact with the event accordingly.12-25-2008
20090063562Importing and Reconciling Resources From Disjoint Name Spaces to a Common Namespace - A namespace exploits individual resource identity attributes of an application to allow the integration of resource instances from applications into a configuration management database (CMDB), prior to any data cleansing or namespace harmonization activities. An approach for incremental reconciliation of resource instances within the CMDB is defined.03-05-2009
20100180020IMPROVING SCALE BETWEEN CONSUMER SYSTEMS AND PRODUCER SYSTEMS OF RESOURCE MONITORING DATA - A consumer system receives capabilities metadata from a producer system that includes resource class metrics for a resource class included in the producer system. Next, the consumer system creates a rule that corresponds to one of the consumer system's managed entities. The rule includes one or more prescriptions that reference the resource class metrics and specify a periodicity, which informs the producer system as to a time interval for which to send prescription results that includes metric information pertaining to the resource class metrics. The consumer system sends the rule to the producer system and, in turn, the consumer system receives the prescription results from the producer system at the specified periodicity and applies the metric information to the managed entity.07-15-2010

20090109294User interface for a portable digital video camera - In one embodiment, a driver determines a current operating mode for a digital video camera and activates a plurality of interface buttons, where each activated interface button includes a visual indication of activation to a user. The driver receives a command to change from the current operating mode to a different operating mode and, in response, deactivates one or more of the interface buttons. Each such deactivated interface button does not include the visual indication of activation to the user. Other embodiments include computer-readable media and systems configured to implement the functionality of the driver described above. Yet other embodiments include a unique interface button configuration physically designed to enhance the ease of use of a digital video camera.04-30-2009
20090109324Charging and use scheme for a hand-held electronics device - One embodiment sets forth a method for modifying video content stored on a hand-held digital video camera (DVC). The method includes transmitting video data to a computer system to which the hand-held DVC is coupled via a data connector, receiving a request for a set of instructions related to a processing operation being performed on the computer system and involving the video data, transmitting the set of instructions to the computer system via the data connector. The method also includes drawing power from the computer system via the data connector and charging at least in part a battery associated with the hand-held DVC with the power drawn from the computer system, where the hand-held DVC remains coupled to the computer system via the data connector for the steps of transmitting, receiving, drawing and charging.04-30-2009
20090109329Data connector for an electronics device - One embodiment of the invention sets forth a hand-held electronics device for recording digital video that includes a housing, a processor disposed within the housing, and a data connector coupled to the processor such that data can be transmitted to and from the processor through the data connector. The data connector includes an arm rotationally coupled to the housing, and an adapter portion matable with a corresponding adapter of a computer system. The data connector forms a portion of a top part or a bottom part of the housing when in a retracted position. Among other things, the disclosed hand-held electronics device advantageously enables a user to easily, with one hand, hold the hand-held electronics device and slide the trigger with a thumb or other finger to release the data connector into the extended position.04-30-2009
20100213211Bottle Cap With Dosing and Pretreatment - Described is a bottle having a bottle base, a transition fitment with a pouring spout and a measuring cup closure, where the measuring cup in multifunctional, for example, serving as a measuring cup, a bottle closure, and a pretreatment applicator.08-26-2010

20080318201COMPONENT-BASED DISTRIBUTED LEARNING MANAGEMENT ARCHITECTURE - The present invention provides a distributed learning management architecture that is “componentized” for increased distribution and scalability. Specifically, the present invention provides an architecture in which multiple content servers, delivery servers and/or live session servers can be provided to accommodate multiple geographic locations. The present invention further provides an off-line learning architecture that allows the teachings of the distributed learning management architecture to be implemented on an individual client.12-25-2008
20090276066INTERLEAVING CONTINUITY RELATED AUDIO FRAGMENTS BETWEEN SEGMENTS OF AN AUDIO FILE - A method for generating an audio file is provided. The method can include receiving a plurality of data entries, wherein each data entry comprises a text portion and converting the text portion of each data entry into a data audio segment, thereby generating a plurality of data audio segments. The method can further include generating, for each data entry in a subset of the plurality of data entries, an introduction audio segment that describes a data entry, thereby producing a plurality of introduction audio segments. The method can further include concatenating the plurality of data audio segments and the plurality of introduction audio segments into a single audio file, wherein each introduction audio segment is positioned in the audio file directly prior to a data audio segment corresponding to the data entry described by the introduction audio segment.11-05-2009
