20080255909 | PRODUCT, METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DYNAMICALLY CHANGING THE EXECUTION SEQUENCE OF STEPS OR TASKS IN A COMPUTERIZED PROCESS - An invention is disclosed for dynamically changing the predefined execution sequence of steps or tasks in a computerized process while it is being performed by permitting one or more task(s) to be specified as necessary when other task(s) have been completed. Specifically, a product, method and system is provided for using a “workflow engine” software program acting in combination with a “decision-making layer” program interface between the workflow engine and the process model to determine the normal or (“default”) next step in the process and all other possible process steps that can be permissibly completed after execution of the current step or task. | 10-16-2008 |
20080288502 | STORING DEPENDENCY AND STATUS INFORMATION WITH INCIDENTS - A method and system are disclosed for reporting incidents occurring during operation of a distributed computing environment including a multitude of hardware and software resources. The method comprises the steps of whenever a defined incident occurs, generating a respective one incident report; and keeping with each incident report, selected information relating to the incident. Preferably, this information that is kept with the incident report identifies (i) selected resources associated with the defined incident, and status of said selected resources at the time of the defined incident, (ii) dependencies among said selected resources at the time of the defined incident, and (iii) service level agreements and operating level agreements impacted by the defined incident. | 11-20-2008 |
20090006971 | PORTAL PAGE GENERATION - A solution for generating a portal page based on a data item. In particular, one or more portlets are selected from a set of available portlets based on the data item. The selected portlet(s) are then included on the portal page, which can be provided to a user device for display. The data item can be provided to a content provider for the portlet in order to generate the display area for the portlet. Information on the user and/or user device can be used when selecting the one or more portlets for inclusion on the portal page. | 01-01-2009 |
20090019046 | MULTIPLE CONFIGURATION ITEM STATUS VALUE ANALYSIS - Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for configuration item (CI) status value analysis for multiple performance monitors. In one embodiment of the invention, a multi-CI analysis method can be provided. The method can include weighting different CI status values produced by different performance monitors for a single resource in a monitored computing system and displaying selected ones of the weighted different CI status values according to relevance determined by weight. In one aspect of the embodiment, weighting different CI status values produced by different performance monitors for a single resource in a monitored computing system can include locating the different CI status values for the single resource in a configuration management database (CMDB), identifying the different performance monitors producing the different CI status values in the CMDB and applying weights to the different CI status values according to CI status value characteristics. | 01-15-2009 |
20090049387 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO CONTROL OPERATION OF A PORTLET - A method to control a portlet associated with a portal page may include deactivating a selected portlet in response to operating a deactivation feature. The method may also include reactivating the selected portlet in response to operating a reactivation feature. The method may also include freezing a portlet content in the selected portlet in response to deactivating the selected portlet. The method may further include disabling hyperlinks, buttons and other inputs to the selected portlet in response to deactivating the selected portlet. The method may further include reconfiguring a portal server to ensure that a portlet content of a selected portlet cannot be affected while the selected portlet is deactivated. | 02-19-2009 |
20090157728 | DISCOVERY AND MANAGEMENT OF CONFIGURATION DATA CONTAINED WITHIN MASHUPS - A computer program product for discovering and distributing relevant business information contained in a mashup comprises computer usable program code is configured to interrogate a mashup maker to discover the elements, relationships, and dependencies embodied by a mashup page; assemble this information into a data structure; and make the data structure accessible. A method for updating a configuration management database, where an end user creates a mashup page that embodies the end user's knowledge about the elements and processes required to fulfill a specific task, comprises deriving elements, relationships, and dependencies from the mashup page; creating a data structure representing this information, and communicating this data structure to the configuration management database. | 06-18-2009 |
20090210481 | DYNAMIC MASHUP CREATION FROM A SET OF RESOURCES AND RESOURCE RELATIONSHIPS - A dependency hierarchy of resources can be determined for a dynamic mashup. The dependency hierarchy can specify dependency relationships among a set of resources. A set of views that correspond to the set of resources can be ascertained. For each view, a view template can be determined that is to be applied to that view. The mashup can be dynamically created that includes the views, each of which is configured in accordance with the associated view template. The created mashup can also include content defined by the set of resources that is configured in a manner consistent with the dependency relationships of the dependency hierarchy. | 08-20-2009 |
20100293461 | HELP INFORMATION FOR LINKS IN A MASHUP PAGE - A mashup page presents link help information for logical links that pass context between widgets on the mashup page. | 11-18-2010 |
20110055704 | METHOD AND SYSTEM TO CONTROL OPERATION OF A PORTLET - A method to control a portlet associated with a portal page may include deactivating a selected portlet in response to operating a deactivation feature. The method may also include reactivating the selected portlet in response to operating a reactivation feature. The method may also include freezing a portlet content in the selected portlet in response to deactivating the selected portlet. The method may further include disabling hyperlinks, buttons and other inputs to the selected portlet in response to deactivating the selected portlet. The method may further include reconfiguring a portal server to ensure that a portlet content of a selected portlet cannot be affected while the selected portlet is deactivated. | 03-03-2011 |
