A method, computer program product, and computer system for monitoring, at a computing device, at least a portion of a collaboration session provided by one or more participants of the collaboration session. At least the portion of the collaboration session is analyzed to determine a recommendation associated with at least the portion of the collaboration session. A source for information associated with the recommendation is searched based upon, at least in part, analyzing at least the portion of the collaboration session. At least one participant of the one or more participants is presented the recommendation and the information associated with the recommendation.

Providing of recommendations determined from a collaboration session system and method

At least one ALM artifact, indexed by a unified data store, that does not comply with at least one process convention can be identified. Responsive to identifying the ALM artifact, indexed by the unified data store, that does not comply with the process convention, a determination can be made by a process convention agent executed by a processor as to whether script code is available to update the ALM artifact to comply with the process convention. Responsive to the process convention agent determining that script code is available to update the ALM artifact to comply with the process convention, the process convention agent can automatically execute the script code to update the ALM artifact to comply with the process convention.

Maintaining the integrity of process conventions within an ALM framework

A method, system and computer program product for managing work and personal items. Information is received from a user to populate a user profile providing rules to determine a priority for work and personal items to be addressed by the user. Work and personal data sources (e.g., e-mails, social media) are monitored. The content in these monitored data sources are scanned and analyzed for work and personal items to be addressed by the user. These work and personal items are then presented to the user in a prioritized order based on the rules in the user profile. In this manner, the user is able to effectively manage the various work and personal items from various data sources by receiving a prioritized list of work and personal items that need to be addressed based on various factors that the user deems to be important as provided in the user's profile.

Prioritizing work and personal items from various data sources using a user profile

Various embodiments provide for the use of analytics to determine a number of key factors prior to a user sending a communication (e.g., an email or instant message, making an online social media post, or accepting or requesting friendship on a social media site). The analytics may determine content, subject, emotion, relationships, and other relevant details when users interact (e.g., with email or other social software). Any alerts/suggestions provided can be provided in real-time as the person types.

Aligning content and social network audience using analytics and/or visualization

Times of at least one of on cycles and off cycles of a pump operating in one of a sub-pump mode and a continuous pumping mode are monitored. A determination is made as to whether to switch the pump from the one of the sub-pump mode and the continuous pumping mode to the other of the sub-pump mode and the continuous pumping mode based upon the monitored times of the at least one of the on cycles and the off cycles of the pump. The pump is switched to the other of the sub-pump mode and the continuous pumping mode in response to determining to switch the pump from the one of the sub-pump mode and the continuous pumping mode to the other of the sub-pump mode and the continuous pumping mode.

Time-based multi-mode pump control

A computer based method and apparatus generate a class relationship diagram of dynamic language objects. In response to a user selecting a subject object implemented in the dynamic language, a diagramming member forms and displays a class relationship diagram of the subject object The class relationship diagram visually illustrates relationships between the subject object and objects it inherits from and objects it contains as extracted from the inheritance chain of the subject object. UML or graph notation may be employed in the generated class relationship diagram.

Computer method and apparatus for debugging in a dynamic computer language

A system and method for developing software using dynamic dual-mode model and data entry is presented. During development, a model developer uses a model window and an editor window to create a model-driven editor. The model window displays model data, and the editor window displays instances of the model data, which results in the model-driven editor. When the developer is ready to deploy the model-driven editor, the model developer simply inhibits the model window. Therefore, the models are not compiled during deployment and, in turn, the model developer does not need to test compiled code. Since the model-driven editor relies upon self-contained models, the models may be updated, added, or removed locally or remotely on an individual basis. In one embodiment, the end user is able to re-enable the model window in order to view model data.

System and method for developing and deploying a model-driven editor

An object of the present invention is to create a migration mapping definition based upon computer program changes and use the migration mapping definition to migrate instance data from an older software version format to a newer software version format. A developer uses edit commands, such as mouse commands and keyboard commands, to update a computer program. For example, a software developer may upgrade 'Application XYZ' from version 1.0 to version 2.0 in order to include a simpler approach to import images, as well as the ability to import newer image format types. As a developer updates a computer program using edit commands, the edit commands are stored in a migration mapping definition. In turn, the migration mapping definition is deployed, along with the updated computer program, to an end user. The end user then uses the migration mapping definition to migrate instance data generated by the original computer program to instance data that is usable by the updated computer program.

Automatic instance data mapping generation

The present invention is a method for cloning an instantiating a Web service from a calling process to a target host. The method can include expanding an application archive to a Web application container in the target host. The archive can include at least one operational file for implementing the Web service, an implementation document for the Web service, and a deployment descriptor for the Web service. A unique identifier can be generated for the Web service. Subsequently, the implementation document can be modified to reference the target host, the Web application in the target host, and the generated unique identifier in specifying the Web service. Also, the deployment descriptor can be modified to reference the generated unique identifier in specifying the Web service. Finally, the Web service can be deployed in the target host using the deployment descriptor; and, a network address referencing the implementation document can be forwarded to the calling process.

Remote Web service cloning and instantiation

A method and system for providing user assistance in utilizing a computer program is disclosed that provides the capability for combining an active display of the past, current, and future steps in an ongoing process with a series of associated decision panels and forms to be completed in order to carry out the steps. A navigator bar, which is situated adjacent to and can be scrolled independently of information appearing in a client area of a computer screen display, provides a user of the computer program with a map of the steps already executed, the current step being executed, and the most likely steps to be performed based on the current step being executed. If the user selects a different step to be the current step, the display of most likely future steps to be performed changes, if appropriate.
