A computer-implemented method, computer program product, and computing system is provided for sharing resources between users. In an implementation, a method may include receiving a sharing request for a resource from a requesting participant of a collaborative session. The method may also include receiving a sharing authorization from a sharing participant of the collaborative session. The method may further include simultaneously downloading the resource from a resource location by a computing device associated with the sharing participant and uploading the resource to the requesting participant by the computing device associated with the sharing participant.

Pass through sharing of resources

A method, system, and computer product for prompting a patient to take a medicine including collecting medicine prescription information associated with a patient, collecting medicine usage data associated with the patient, comparing the medicine usage data with the medicine prescription information, determining whether a medicine is taken by the patient as prescribed in the prescription information based on a comparison result of the medicine usage data and the prescription information, and generating one or more control signals to interrupt operations of one or more devices within an environment of the patient or environments of the patient's family member or caregivers, in response to determining that the medicine is not taken as prescribed.

Method to determine, remind and validate medication usage

Recommended route change verification via a navigation system. The navigation system receives a destination from a user and then determines an initial route to the destination. While navigating along the initial route, the navigation system can determine a route change to the destination. Also, a convergence point is determined along where the initial route and the first route change converge. In order to verify that the route change is faster than continuing along the initial route, a first group of users utilizing the navigation system are routed along the initial route to the convergence point and a second group of other users are routed along the first route change to the convergence point. If more of the first group of users pass the convergence point before the second group of users, then the route change is recommended to the user rather than continuing along the initial route.

Alternative route decision making

A system, a method and a computer program product for managing multiple meetings and/or conference calls by performing the steps of receiving, by a computer, invitations to attend, by at least one attendee, two or more meetings, and detecting, by the computer, a one or more conflicts between the two meetings. The computer communicates, to the attendee, at least one detected conflict of the one or more detected conflicts. The computer receives an identification of a single meeting of the two or more meetings the at least one attendee will attend and at least one meeting to be transcribed. At least one meeting to be transcribed includes all meetings of the two or more meetings exclusive of the single meeting the attendee will attend. At least a portion of the at least one meeting is transcribed into a first textual transcript and selectively delivered to the attendee in real time.

Managing, monitoring and transcribing concurrent meetings and/or conference calls

Machine logic for: receiving data set (for example, a website) that includes a plurality of links, with the links respectively identifying logical locations of data stored on a set of server computer(s); and making a deep copy of the servable data set on the set of server computer(s), with the deep copying including: copying each link of the plurality of links of the servable data set from a respective source logical location to a respective target location, and adding each copied link of the plurality of links as a record in a mapping table. The mapping table can help to automatically update/replace links wherever they are found in related system artifacts. If the resolution can't be automatically determined then the system suggests possible target links for manual inspection/updates based on the likelihood of correctness, artifact types, and user roles.

Fixing embedded richtext links in copied related assets

A method, system, and apparatus are provided for automating digital resource management by using monitored user interactions with digital resources to compute a user interaction metric for each digital resource upon detecting a role change for a first user having a user interaction history with the digital resources, where each user interaction metric indicates how important the first user is to the corresponding digital resource and is used to select and map a first digital resource to a second user to provide an ownership transition recommendation for the first digital resource in response to the role change for the first user.

System and method to identify, gather, and detect reusable digital assets

In one embodiment, a method for automatically caching and sending electronic signatures is provided. The method includes storing, by a mobile device, a digital signature, wherein the digital signature is associated with information relating to an expected delivery at an expected location, and wherein the mobile device is located within a proximity of the expected location. The method further includes detecting, by the mobile device, that a delivery service has arrived at the expected location with a package. The method further includes, in response to determining, by the mobile device, that the package corresponds to the expected delivery, authorizing, by the mobile device, the package to be left at the expected location by transmitting the digital signature to a delivery device associated with the delivery service.

Automatically caching and sending electronic signatures

A computer-implemented method for collaborative caching of files during a collaboration session includes receiving a request from a first electronic device for a first file. The method determines whether the first file is stored in one or more caches, wherein the one or more caches are associated with one or more electronic devices. Responsive to determining the first file is stored in a cache of a second electronic device, the method determines whether the first file stored in the cache of the second electronic device meets a set of guidelines. Responsive to determining the first file stored in the cache of the second electronic device meets the set of guidelines, the method sends the first file from the cache of the second electronic device via an internal network to the first electronic device.

Collaborative based caching

A computer system for collaborative caching of files during a collaboration session includes program instructions for receiving a request from a first electronic device for a first file. The program instructions determine whether the first file is stored in one or more caches, wherein the one or more caches are associated with one or more electronic devices. Responsive to determining the first file is stored in a cache of a second electronic device, the program instructions determine whether the first file stored in the cache of the second electronic device meets a set of guidelines. Responsive to determining the first file stored in the cache of the second electronic device meets the set of guidelines, the program instructions send the first file from the cache of the second electronic device via an internal network to the first electronic device.
