20090172729METHOD, SYSTEM AND PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR BROADCASTING SERVICES AVAILABLE TO CONSUMERS AT A LOCATION WHEN RELEVANT - A method, system and program product for automatically broadcasting services available at a location within a broadcast area. The method includes inputting, into a tool configured to broadcast, services available at different locations from multiple service providers and broadcasting in a broadcast area covering the different locations the services available from the multiple service providers. The method further includes delivering broadcasts of services available to a consumer at a location within the broadcast area at a point-in-time, the consumer having a device configured to send a respective location of the consumer to the tool and configured to receive delivery of the broadcasts of the services available at the respective location while the consumer is at the respective location, such that, the broadcasts of the services available alerts the consumer of the services available at the respective location at the point-in-time.07-02-2009
20090193087System and method for configurable meeting invitation notification on unopened/unaccepted invitations - This presentation enhances current meeting/calendar programs, so that the user will receive alerts via cell or regular phone in the event that a user chooses to receive these alerts or is unaware of receiving a meeting invitation via an electronic mail or calendar system. Voice alert can be sent to cell or regular phone, and text alert can also be sent to cell phone. The user can select to get alerts via voice or text to any phone, and can type in the phone number via a configuration tool.07-30-2009
20100005113FUNCTION IN A RELATIONAL DATABASE - A method of retrieval and presentation of data in denormalized format may include accessing a relational database of CHARACTER or VARCHAR data types in normal form, applying a database command SUMTEXT(column name, delimiter string) to the relational database, retrieving related sets of text strings from the relational database, truncating leading blanks and trailing blanks in each string, limiting the length of each string to a predetermined value, appending related strings using a delimiter string specified, and presenting denormalized data strings.01-07-2010

20090158391Method and Apparatus for Handling Files Containing Confidential or Sensitive Information - A method, apparatus, and computer instructions for managing files in a data processing system. An attribute for a file is specified as having a special designation. The file with the attribute having the special designation is processed, by the operating system, in a different manner from other files when performing operations, such as, for example, copying the file to a removable media, printing the file, or sending the file over a network.06-18-2009

20080283587Method and system for retrieval of consumer product information - A system comprising a product tag, a consumer receiver and software for the receiver enables a consumer to electronically retrieve information about commercial product. Each product would have a tag that could contain any amount of description information about the product. The tag has the capability of transmitting this information to a consumer. A customizable and programmable receiver can read the product tag and interpret the information according to the consumer's preferences programmed on the receiver. The software would allow the receiver to interpret the product tag information into an understandable format and present it to the consumer. This system enables a consumer to more efficiently and effectively obtain information about a commercial product.11-20-2008
20090070780ENHANCED BROWSING OF MESSAGES IN A MESSAGE QUEUE - Arrangements for enhancing browsing of messages in a message queue are disclosed. Embodiments include hardware and/or software for tracking records browsed by one or more agents. The agents can collect, process, and/or re-format data for an upperware application, a data warehouse, and/or similar systems. When the agent sets up communications with a queue, the agent may generate an attribute setting that instructs the middleware to track the last record browsed and/or the next record to browse. In response to setting the attribute, an agent identification (AID)) can be utilized to record the current record number, row number, queue identifier, and/or the like in a database. When the agent re-establishes communication with the middleware queue, the middleware can retrieve the current record number utilizing the AID.03-12-2009

20090037609MIDDLE MANAGEMENT OF INPUT/OUTPUT IN SERVER SYSTEMS - A middle manager and methods are provided to enable a plurality of host devices to share one or more input/output devices. The middle manager initializes each shared input/output device and binds one or more functions of each input/output device to a specific host node in the system, such that hosts may only access functions to which they are bound. The middle manager may also utilize a configuration register map to translate values from the actual configuration register into a unique modified value for each of the plurality of host devices such that each host device may access and use the shared input/output device regardless of the firmware or operating system operating thereon.02-05-2009

20090010159End-to-end flow control in a network - A network node within a network includes a first receive buffer, first buffer management, a second receive buffer and second buffer management. The first buffer management performs link level credit based flow control for network packets that the first buffer management places in the first receive buffer. The second buffer management performs end-to-end credit based flow control for network packets that the second buffer management receives from the first receive buffer and processes before placing data in the second receive buffer.01-08-2009
20090037617MIDDLE MANAGEMENT OF INPUT/OUTPUT IN SERVER SYSTEMS - A middle manager and methods are provided to enable a plurality of host devices to share one or more input/output devices. The middle manager initializes each shared input/output device and binds one or more functions of each input/output device to a specific host node in the system, such that hosts may only access functions to which they are bound. The middle manager may also utilize a configuration register map to translate values from the actual configuration register into a unique modified value for each of the plurality of host devices such that each host device may access and use the shared input/output device regardless of the firmware or operating system operating thereon.02-05-2009
20110082949PRESENTING MULTI-FUNCTION DEVICES BEHIND A SWITCH HIERARCHY AS A SINGLE FUNCTION DEVICE - In one embodiment, a computer system, comprises at least one host node, at least one input/output node coupled to the host node, at least one multi-function device coupled to the input/output node via a switch, and a middle manager processor comprising logic to block an enumeration process in a host node for the multi-function devices behind the switch hierarchy, initiate an enumeration process for the multi-function devices in a manager processor separate from the host node, store a routing table for the switch hierarchy in a memory module coupled to the manager processor, and allocate, in the manager processor, endpoint device resources to the host node.04-07-2011
