20110138291 | CONFIGURABLE NETWORK MANAGEMENT SYSTEM EVENT PROCESSING USING SIMPLE NETWORK MANAGEMENT TABLE INDICES - In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method, comprises receiving a simple network management protocol (SNMP) management information base (MIB) definition file; identifying in the MIB definition file one or more SNMP notification varbinds and associated notification varbind information; storing in a compiled MIB file for each of the varbinds: notification varbind info and columnar index info; causing generating a user interface having values based on the compiled MIB file; receiving user input selecting values and setting one or more network management system (NMS) event descriptions or event correlation rules; creating a NMS configuration file that is configured to cause the NMS at runtime to include and use the event descriptions or event correlation rules, and the compiled MIB file, in SNMP notification configuration or event correlation functions of the network management logic. As a result, descriptive data relating to SNMP notification columnar objects s becomes available for use in graphical user interface data display panels in event descriptions and in event correlation rules and processes without users or administrators having to learn a special language or API or use a special NMS configuration file format. | 06-09-2011 |

20140197950 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTING OUTAGES IN A MEDICAL RECORD EXCHANGE SYSTEM - Systems and methods for detecting an issue with a message flow between two or more data systems. In an embodiment, at a first time, a number of first request messages and a number of first response messages transmitted or received during a first look-back period are determined. A first ratio is calculated based on these numbers and compared to an alerting threshold. If the first ratio is less than the alerting threshold, an alert is generated. Then, at a second time, a number of second request messages and a number of second response messages transmitted or received during a second look-back period are determined. A second ratio is calculated based on these numbers and compared to a clearing threshold. Based on this comparison, it is determined whether to maintain or clear the alert. | 07-17-2014 |

20090013256 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATICALLY ESTABLISHING BI-DIRECTIONAL LINE-SWITCHED RINGS IN TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORKS - A method of automatically provisioning a network-wide function using a plurality of network elements in a service provider network and using a sub-network level approach is provided. In one specific approach, a software wizard facilitates provisioning a bi-directional line switched ring (BLSR). First user input, specifying a plurality of ring attribute values that define attributes of a bi-directional line switched ring, is received. Second user input, specifying one or more working spans for the bi-directional line switched ring, is received. Each of the network elements is automatically configured to participate in the bi-directional line switched ring based on the parameter values. Embodiments may provide a software wizard for implementing the foregoing process. In certain features, spans for a BLSR are automatically selected based on a selection of a first candidate span; only selected nodes and spans that are capable of participating in a BLSR are displayed; and port orientation for all spans in a BLSR is automatically determined based on user input defining port orientation for a first port of a first span. | 01-08-2009 |

20080288583 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR GENERATING AUXILIARY-SERVER CACHE IDENTIFIERS - A method, system, and computer program product, by which portions of the session information that page-content is dependent upon are “pushed” to the client from the origin server in a way such that auxiliary servers, e.g. other application servers and edge-servers, have access to the session information and fragment dependancy data to generate auxiliary-server cache-IDs for the custom pages. This enables distribution of the load away from the origin server, allowing better application distribution and scalability through more effective caching. | 11-20-2008 |

20130034840 | SELECTING SURVEY QUESTIONS - For selecting survey questions, a response module receives responses to first questions relating to at least two qualities of at least two characteristics. A plot module generates a scatter plot of the at least two qualities for each characteristic. A selection module selects second questions targeted to characteristics with characteristic plot values for the at least two qualities in a specified region of the scatter plot. | 02-07-2013 |

20140351745 | CONTENT NAVIGATION HAVING A SELECTION FUNCTION AND VISUAL INDICATOR THEREOF - Exemplary embodiment provides methods and systems for providing content navigation having a selection function and visual indicator thereof. Aspects of exemplary embodiment include displaying on a display screen as part of a user interface a series of navigation indicators corresponding to a series of content items available for viewing; displaying a current item indicator in association with a first one of the navigation indicators of a first content item indicating that the first content item is in view on the display; in response to receiving a selection of the first content item, displaying a selection indicator in association with at least the first content item and the first navigation indicator to indicate that the first displayed content item is selected; and in response to receiving a scroll operation, displaying a second content item on the display in place of the first content item, and displaying the current item indicator in association with a second one of the navigation indicators of the second content item, while maintaining the display of the selection indicator to indicate that the first content item remains selected, but out of view. | 11-27-2014 |

20100037158 | MANAGING GUI CONTROL AUTO-ADVANCING - Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for preventing unintentional GUI control advances. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for preventing unintentional graphical user interface (GUI) control advancing associated with an auto-advance feature can be provided. The method can include defining a threshold time period, selecting a GUI control in a GUI for which auto-advancement is enabled, receiving complete input for the selected GUI control, and suppressing a manual directive to advance to a next ordered GUI control in the GUI responsive to the manual directive being received within the threshold time period between the receipt of the complete input and the manual directive. | 02-11-2010 |
20100058185 | DYNAMIC HINTS FOR GUI CONTROL MODES CONTINGENT UPON CONTEXT-DEFINED CONDITIONS - Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for assisting a user in a GUI. In an embodiment of the invention method for assisting a user in a graphical user interface (GUI) can include detecting a proximity event in connection with a GUI control of an application in a mode contingent upon a context-defined condition within the application, retrieving an explanation from memory for the mode of the GUI control and contingency of the context-defined condition, and rendering the explanation in association with the mode of the GUI control and the contingency of the context-defined condition. | 03-04-2010 |
