Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090063906Method, Apparatus and Program Storage Device for Extending Dispersion Frame Technique Behavior Using Dynamic Rule Sets - A method, apparatus and program storage device for providing control of statistical processing of error data over a multitude of sources using a dynamically modifiable DFT rule set is disclosed. The dispersion frame technique is extended in the present invention to provide dispersion frame rules with user-defined parameters thereby creating a dynamically modifiable rule set.03-05-2009
20100010783Moving physical objects from original physical site to user-specified locations at destination physical site - Dimensions of each physical object to be moved from an original physical site to a destination physical site are at least approximately determined. Each physical object is tagged with an identifier. A virtual layout of the destination physical site and the dimensions and the identifier of each physical object are input into a computer program. A user-specified location of where within the destination physical site each physical object is to be placed when moved to the destination physical site is input using the computer program, based on the virtual layout of the destination physical site and the dimensions and the identifier of each physical object. At the destination physical site, each physical object is looked up using the identifier of the physical object to determine the user-specified location of where to place the physical object within the destination physical site.01-14-2010
20100037165Transparent Windows - A method, apparatus, and article of manufacture are provided to support window transparency on a visual display of a computer system. At least two windows are created and present on the visual display, with each of the windows having transparency attribute. One of the windows is painted with a transparent area, and a second window is painted with a non-transparent area. An attribute is assigned to the transparent area of the window that enables the area to either be anchored to a specified position on the visual display, or free floating or fixed relative to the containing window on the visual display.02-11-2010
20100169768Spell Checker That Teaches Rules of Spelling - A method, system, and article are provided for determining the source of a spelling error and teaching the rule associated with the error. The computer system is configured with a review module in communication with managers to support identification of a spelling error and associating a rule with the error. The rule is communicated to mitigate repeating the spelling error in a future spelling review.07-01-2010

20080205300CHECKING AND REPAIRING A NETWORK CONFIGURATION - Disclosed is a technique for correcting a configuration problem. The configuration problem is detected. It is determined whether there is at least one solution for the configuration problem in a knowledge data store. When it is determined that there is at least one solution in the knowledge data store, automatically selecting a solution to solve the configuration problem. When said solution can be automatically applied, automatically applying said solution. When said solution cannot be automatically applied, notifying a user.08-28-2008
20080209015CHECKING AND REPAIRING A NETWORK CONFIGURATION - A technique for performing configuration checking of a network is provided. A network data store is scanned for at least one transaction. At least one event is generated for the transaction. At least one configuration policy is associated with the event. The configuration policy is compared with configuration data associated with the event. It is determined whether the configuration policy has been violated based on the comparison.08-28-2008

20100044407Sheet Product Dispenser and Method of Operation - A sheet product dispenser and method of operation is provided. The sheet product dispenser records usage data and stores the data on a storage device. A dispenser controller uses the usage data to create a model that is used to determine a predicted depletion date. The depletion date is provided as feedback to an operator to allow the operator to more efficiently dispatch maintenance personnel. In one embodiment, the feedback is in the form of a display on the front of the dispenser that displays the predicted depletion date.02-25-2010
