20120079454EXPRESSING EQUIVALENCY RELATIONSHIPS WITH IDENTITY GRAPHS - A synchronization system is described herein that synchronizes two environments by correctly matching identity objects in a source environment with related objects in a target environment. In addition to matching identities based on primitive attributes, the system matches identities across multiple heterogeneous environments based on their relative positions in an identity graph. The system builds the identity graph by first matching some identity objects based on primitive attribute value comparisons. The system fills in the remainder of the identity graph by comparing references to/from the matched identity objects. The combination of attribute value comparisons and comparing references enables identity-aware applications to complete a single identity graph, determine the equivalency of identities in this graph, and apply policy based on this new relationship.03-29-2012
20120079502DEPENDENCY-ORDERED RESOURCE SYNCHRONIZATION - A synchronization system is described herein that synchronizes resource objects in an order based on their dependency relationships so that a referenced object is available by the time an object that references it is synchronized. Reference attributes present in resources define the dependency relationship among resources. Using these relationships, the system builds a dependency tree and orders synchronization operations for environment reconciliation by precedence so that referential integrity is preserved while still synchronizing reference attributes. The system can deterministically create a change list that guarantees referential integrity, and perform change list processing in parallel. The synchronization system attempts to order the synchronization based on references available to ensure that the system creates and updates dependent resources before their parent resources. Thus, the synchronization system provides a fast, reliable update mechanism for synchronizing two related data environments.03-29-2012

20100299363PRE-POPULATED AND ADMINISTRATOR DEFINED GROUPS IN CONTACTS LISTS - A contacts list for a subscriber is pre-populated based on information received from various data stores, data mining of applications associated with the subscriber, and administrator defined contacts. The list may be further maintained dynamically based on changes to contact information and/or subscriber attributes.11-25-2010
20110231407DYNAMIC CONTACTS LIST MANAGEMENT - Contacts lists are dynamically managed in association with communication and collaboration applications and devices. Automated and user defined factors are determined based on information from various resources such as user profile, contact information, past communication information, application/device types, and comparable ones. Factors may be weighted and employed to prioritize contacts lists under different circumstances. Prioritized contacts lists may be provided to a user, stored, updated, or otherwise processed.09-22-2011
20110307455CONTACT INFORMATION MERGER AND DUPLICATE RESOLUTION - Merger and duplicate resolution for contact information across platforms is managed employing contact objects and aggregating the contact objects into contact models. Contact data from internal and/or external data stores may be retrieved and contact objects created for each contact from each contact store. A contact model for each contact entity may be created by aggregating contact data from contact objects across the contact stores. The aggregation may include duplicate resolution through weighting of communication system types, ranking of contact information type, and similar approaches. The contact models may be dynamically updated based on changes to the contact objects.12-15-2011
