A meeting summarization method, system, and computer program product, include compiling notes from a meeting between a plurality of users and providing a single document that summarizes the meeting based on the compiled notes.

Summarization method for recorded audio

A novel distributed graph database is provided that is designed for efficient graph data storage and processing on modern computing architectures. In particular a single node graph database and a runtime & communication layer allows for composing a distributed graph database from multiple single node instances.

Distributed graph databases that facilitate streaming data insertion and queries by efficient throughput edge addition

Distributed graph databases that facilitate streaming data insertion and queries by reducing number of messages required to add a new edge by employing asynchronous communication

Distributed graph databases that facilitate streaming data insertion and low latency graph queries

A meeting summarization method, system, and computer program product, include capturing notes of a user including a time stamp from the user associated with a meeting, synchronizing an agenda of the meeting and the notes of the user based on a correlation between a time stamp of a topic on the agenda and a time stamp of the notes of the user, and analyzing the synchronized topic and the notes to determine highlights of the meeting based on a co-occurrence of the time stamp of the notes of the user and the time stamp of the topic on the agenda.

A method, system and computer program product for index maintenance in a computer system comprising a plurality of nodes, a database, and an index to the database. In one embodiment, the method comprises, for a defined period of time, building a snapshot of selected change requests received by the nodes to change the database. After this defined period of time, a selection is made, based on specified criteria, whether to rebuild a new index to the database, or to add entries to a current index. When the selection is to rebuild a new index, the new index is rebuilt based on data in the database and in the change requests in the snapshot. When the selection is to add entries to a current index, entries are added to the current index based on data in the database and in the change requests in the snapshot.

Index maintenance based on a comparison of rebuild vs. update

System, method and computer program product for creating a summarization from recorded audio of meetings

A meeting summarization method, system, and computer program product, include recording meeting audio of a meeting, capturing notes including a time stamp from each of a plurality of users associated with the meeting, synchronizing the recorded meeting audio of the meeting and each of the notes of each of the plurality of users based on a correlation between the time stamp, and analyzing the synchronized meeting audio and notes to determine highlights of the meeting based on a co-occurrence of notes between the plurality of users.

Disclosed is a novel system and method for initiating trial use of a software application. One or more trial software icons are displayed on a messaging window of a graphical users interface on a display coupled to a computing device. Each trial software icon represents a trial software application, such as a separate and distinct trial software application, that is not currently installed on the computing device. Moving an object representing a file attachment, such as through drag-and-drop action, to one of the trial software icons automatically installs the trial software application on the computing device. Also the trial software application is launched automatically to open the file attachment.
