Systems and methods for importing data from data sources over a network while correcting and transforming the data are described. A data migration server receives data from various data sources. The data migration server repairs and transforms the received data before transmitting the data to a new data server. In some embodiments, the data migration server repairs data before formatting the data, and in other embodiments, the data migration server formats data before repairing the data. The data migration server also verifies the accuracy of the data, either by comparing the data against data requested and received from third-party servers or in reference to other data from the data sources.

Systems and methods for automatically identifying data dependencies for reports are described. In one embodiment, a method includes: instructing a first reporting utility to generate a first report according to a set of parameters, the first report based on data stored in a database; modifying, directly or indirectly, at least one data element in the database; instructing the first reporting utility to generate a second report according to the set of parameters, the second report based on data stored in the database; comparing the first report to the second report; and identifying, based on the comparison, at least one field within the database used by the first reporting utility to generate the first and second reports.

A method for synchronizing presentation of a dynamic data set to a plurality of nodes. The method includes the step of generating, by a consumer node in a plurality of nodes, a plurality of data packets representing a change to a dynamic data set. A host node in the plurality of nodes receives the plurality of data packets. The host node transmits to a synchronization engine the plurality of data packets. The synchronization engine generates metadata information representing the difference between the dynamic data set and the plurality of data packets. The synchronization engine transmits to the plurality of nodes the metadata information and the plurality of data packets.

A bandwidth-adaptive method for synchronizing a consumer node representation of a dynamic data set and the source node representation of the dynamic data includes the step of receiving, from a source node, metadata information identifying a plurality of data packets that represent a state of at least a portion of a changing data set at a point in time. At least one of the identified data packets is received from the source node and at least one of the received data packets is selected responsive to the received meta-data information. The metadata information and the selected at least one data packet are transmitted to a consumer node.

A method for displaying targeted advertisements to users of workflow software, based on information corresponding to the workflow, the related industry, and the user of the workflow software includes: receiving, from an identified user, a request to display a step in a workflow, the workflow corresponding to a given industry; determining, based on (i) the identified user, (ii) the step in the workflow, and (iii) the corresponding industry, an advertisement to be displayed in conjunction with the step in the workflow; and transmitting, to the identified user, the requested workflow step and the determined advertisement. Corresponding systems are also described.

Systems and methods for generating advertiser recommendations from users of workflow software

A method for using a workflow server to provide targeted advertisements recommended by users of workflow software includes: receiving, at a server from a user completing a workflow, information corresponding to a step in the workflow and an advertiser, the advertiser recommended by the user in connection with the step in the workflow; identifying, by the server, an advertisement corresponding to the recommended advertiser; and transmitting, from the server to a second client, a markup language page corresponding to the step in the workflow, the markup language page including the identified advertisement. Corresponding systems are also described.

At least one of the identified data packets is received from the source node and at least one of the received data packets is selected responsive to the received metadata information. The metadata information and the selected at least one data packet are transmitted to a consumer node.

Methods and apparatus for sharing graphical screen data in a bandwidth-adaptive manner

The present invention is a system and method for controlling information displayed on a first processor-based system, from a second processor-based system. The apparatus comprises a memory to store instruction sequences by which the second processor-based system is processed, and a processor coupled to the memory. The stored instruction sequences cause the processor to: (a) examine, at a predetermined interval, a location of a currently displayed image; (b) compare the location with a corresponding location of a previously displayed image to determine if the previously displayed image has changed; (c) transmitting location information representing the change; and (d) storing the changed information on the first processor-based system. Various embodiments are described.
