Computer systems, devices, and associated methods of serializing a web page that is of a first format and includes a plug-in including properties of a second format are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes identifying, in a manifest for the plug-in, properties for inclusion in the first format in a serialized web page. The manifest may also include metadata associated with the properties in the list of properties. The method includes formatting the properties, including associated property values and metadata, in the first format and adding the formatted properties to the serialized web page. The plug-in properties not included in the manifest can be added to the serialized web page in the second format.

Serializing plug-in data in a web page

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and system for generating a uniform resource locator using one or more terms in a hierarchical taxonomy. Specifically, embodiments disclosed herein provide receiving a plurality of terms for a term set and generating a hierarchical taxonomy for the term set using the plurality of terms. Once the hierarchical taxonomy has been generated, a navigation property may be assigned to at least one term in the plurality of terms. A navigation term set that mirrors the properties of the hierarchical taxonomy is then created using the at least one term.

Taxonomy driven site navigation

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and system for generating a webpage using one or more terms in a hierarchical taxonomy. Specifically, embodiments provide for identifying an item in a database where the item is associated with at least one term in a term set having a hierarchical structure. A uniform resource locator is generated for the webpage using the at least one term and the hierarchical structure associated with the at least one term. An identifier associated with the item is then determined and appended to the generated uniform resource locator.

Taxonomy driven commerce site

Document scheduling architecture for automatic publication and removal from publication of a document. A document can be developed, approved, and scheduled for automatic viewing and removal from viewing using start data and end data that are represented as job definitions. Based on a triggering event, the jobs are selected and executed to effect document publication. The document is automatically published making it viewable by all users who have suitable permission to do so. The architecture provides a pluggable override scheduling, and hence, extensible scheduling solution for third-party entities to provide alternative approval and/or scheduling behavior. Other attributes include reporting to a user the status of a document, execution of a policy in combination with the document publication such that the policy overrides selected attributes of the publication state, and a management filter process wherein the document can be reviewed independently by another individual for veto of publication if desired.

Managing document publication using time-driven job scheduling

Techniques to manage vocabulary terms for a taxonomy system are described. An apparatus may comprise a managed taxonomy system having a vocabulary management module to manage a taxonomy of formal vocabulary terms organized in a hierarchical structure. The taxonomy may include a category for informal vocabulary terms stored as a list of keywords. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Techniques to manage a taxonomy system for heterogeneous resource domain

A web content management server allows for the automatic creation, management and publication of variant objects from a parent object. The variant object is created as a copy of the corresponding parent object and may then be modified. Each object includes a pages list that identifies all associated objects and the content type of each object listed in the pages list. The relationship between parent and variant objects is maintained regardless of the location where the objects are stored. When changes are made to the parent page, the changes are also implemented in any corresponding variant pages. The parent object tracks any corresponding variant objects with an identifier stored in the pages list. When the parent page is modified, a workflow is triggered to modify the corresponding variant pages identified by the identifier and the content type in the pages list.

Creation and management of content-related objects

A computing device includes an operating system that manages an application and maintains threads relating thereto, where each thread has assigned attributes and the operating system executes each thread according to each attribute thereof. An interface process of the application receives a thread with a request for the application, sets an attribute of the request/thread to enforce a limitation within the application, and forwards the request/thread to the application for further processing in accordance with the limitation to produce a result. The interface process thereafter receives the same thread with the result from the application, resets the attribute of the result/thread to remove the limitation outside of the application, and forwards the result/thread for delivery to the requester. Thus, the interface process ensures by way of setting and resetting the attribute on the thread that the limitation on the application is satisfied.
