20080300943 | TECHNIQUES FOR PROJECT TRANSFORMATION AND MANAGEMENT - Techniques for project transformation and management are provided. A project is defined via user-defined stages associated with its lifecycle. Each stage is associated with a set of resources and a particular processing environment. Each stage is dynamically and automatically configured and the resources of each stage are dynamically and automatically managed and transitioned to and from other stages. Policy drives the management and transitions of resources between the stages. | 12-04-2008 |
20080300945 | TECHNIQUES FOR SHARING RESOURCES ACROSS MULTIPLE INDEPENDENT PROJECT LIFECYCLES - Techniques for sharing resources across multiple independent projects are provided. Resources, which are associated with a first project and which are managed within first stages of a first project lifecycle, are selectively shared and managed within second stages of a second project lifecycle, which is associated with a second project. The first and second project lifecycles are separately and independently managed from one another. | 12-04-2008 |
20080319999 | TECHNIQUES FOR PROJECT LIFECYCLE STAGED-BASED ACCESS CONTROL - Techniques for project lifecycle staged-based access control are provided. Access control rights are defined for a stage of a project's lifecycle. As requestors transition to the stage, the access control rights are enforced on top of any existing security restrictions. In an embodiment, selective resources are not visible to requesters within the stage in response to the access control rights. | 12-25-2008 |
20090030705 | PROJECT MANAGEMENT BLACK BOX PROTECTIONS - Techniques for project management black box protections are provided. A first principal associated with a first processing environment and a first stage of a project's lifecycle requests that an action be taken on its behalf. The first principal is authenticated and policy is evaluated when the first principal is successfully authenticated. Moreover, the action is taken on behalf of the principal when the policy permits and the when the principal was successfully authenticated. | 01-29-2009 |
20090037198 | TECHNIQUES FOR TEMPORARILY HOLDING PROJECT STAGES - Techniques for temporarily holding project stages are provided. Resources and configuration information associated with a source stage of project's lifecycle are imaged in a self-contained project package. The package is published to an intermediate holding area. The package is pulled to and initiated within a target stage of the project's lifecycle when release and access criteria are satisfied. | 02-05-2009 |
20090037921 | TECHNIQUES FOR INSTANTIATING AND CONFIGURING PROJECTS - Techniques for project management instantiation and configuration are provided. A master project includes policy directives that drive the dynamic instantiation and configuration of resources for a project. The resources are instantiated and configured on demand and when resources are actually requested, in response to the policy directives. | 02-05-2009 |
20090048888 | TECHNIQUES FOR CLAIM STAKING IN A PROJECT STAGE-BASED ENVIRONMENT - Techniques for claim staking in a project stage-based environment are provided. A stakeholder is assigned for a project as a whole or a sub portion of the project. Access permissions are defined in response to the stakeholder, the project, and/or the sub portion. The access permissions are dynamically enforced across processing environments, stages within a same project, and stages within different projects when attempted changes are made to the project or the sub portion. | 02-19-2009 |
20090048894 | TECHNIQUES FOR PROPAGATING CHANGES IN PROJECTS - Techniques for propagating changes in projects are provided. A first resource associated with a first project is modified in some manner. The modification is automatically and dynamically detected. A second project is identified for notification of that change. The notification is communicated to the second project in a custom manner. | 02-19-2009 |
20110219353 | TECHNIQUES FOR INSTANTIATING AND CONFIGURING PROJECTS - Techniques for project management instantiation and configuration are provided. A master project includes policy directives that drive the dynamic instantiation and configuration of resources for a project. The resources are instantiated and configured on demand and when resources are actually requested, in response to the policy directives. | 09-08-2011 |
20110231908 | TECHNIQUES FOR PROJECT LIFECYCLE STAGED-BASED ACCESS CONTROL - Techniques for project lifecycle staged-based access control are provided. Access control rights are defined for a stage of a project's lifecycle. As requestors transition to the stage, the access control rights are enforced on top of any existing security restrictions. In an embodiment, selective resources are not visible to requestors within the stage in response to the access control rights. | 09-22-2011 |
20130073332 | TECHNIQUES FOR INSTANTIATING AND CONFIGURING PROJECTS - Techniques for project management instantiation and configuration are provided. A master project includes policy directives that drive the dynamic instantiation and configuration of resources for a project. The resources are instantiated and configured on demand and when resources are actually requested, in response to the policy directives. | 03-21-2013 |
20130298188 | TECHNIQUES FOR PROJECT LIFECYCLE STAGED-BASED ACCESS CONTROL - Techniques for project lifecycle staged-based access control are provided. Access control rights are defined for a stage of a project's lifecycle. As requestors transition to the stage, the access control rights are enforced on top of any existing security restrictions. In an embodiment, selective resources are not visible to requestors within the stage in response to the access control rights. | 11-07-2013 |
20140195292 | TECHNIQUES FOR INSTANTIATING AND CONFIGURING PROJECTS - Techniques for project management instantiation and configuration are provided. A master project includes policy directives that drive the dynamic instantiation and configuration of resources for a project. The resources are instantiated and configured on demand and when resources are actually requested, in response to the policy directives. | 07-10-2014 |
