20130014051 | INTERACTIVE SCROLLBARS FOR UNKNOWN DATA SIZE - Scrollbar control is utilized for manually scanning for displayed/available information while controlling the amount of information that is actually materialized. In response to a drag and hold of the “thumb” to a beginning or end location of the scrollbar, additional records may be retrieved depending on a display order of data on the user interface. If the location corresponds to an end of records (whether at the beginning or at the end of the order), that may be indicated. Upon release, the thumb may be moved automatically to a predefined location to indicate additional available records at the source if that is the case. | 01-10-2013 |
20140359026 | DETERMINISTIC MESSAGING - Contextual information is used in determining how to deliver a message to a user. Instead of displaying a message at a predetermined location or following a predefined routing list to deliver a message to a user, contextual information associated with the user is used in delivering the message. Different message types may be used to deliver the message. The message type that is selected for the delivery of the message may be based on different criteria (e.g. device receiving the message, priority of the message, and the like). In cases where a user does not respond to an important message within a specified time period, other messages using the same or different message types may be delivered to the user or other user(s) until a response is received. | 12-04-2014 |
20140359472 | AUTOMATICALLY CHANGING A DISPLAY OF GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE - Usage information is used to automatically change a display of a Graphical User Interface (GUI) for a computer application. Recommendations may also be automatically provided that when accepted by a user change the GUI of the application. The usage information includes recorded interactions along with the context of the actions. Generally, the contextual usage information includes interaction information that may be used to determine how a user is interacting with the application based on the current context of the user. The usage information that is recorded from one or more users may be used to change the GUI and/or provide recommendations. Usage information obtained from a larger set of users (e.g. based on a type of business) may be used to automatically determine the recommendations or change the GUI. | 12-04-2014 |
20140365879 | USING ALIASES FOR DATE ENTRY - Date entries may be made using aliases in place of a specific dates. Instead of a user having to locate or determine a specific date for a date entry field, the alias that represents the date may be entered in the date entry field. The date for the alias is determined from a context of the date entry. For example, the context may include a determination as to what application is requesting the date, what entity is associated with the date entry, and the like. In a payroll date example, a next pay date “NPD” alias may change based on the employee. The data used to determine the date that is represented by the alias may be one or more data sets. The aliases may be associated with more than one application. | 12-11-2014 |
20140365961 | UNIFIED WORKLIST - A notification system receives notifications from a plurality of different components within a business system. The notification system aggregates notifications for a given user, from the plurality of different components in the business system. The notification system displays the aggregated list of notifications for user interaction. | 12-11-2014 |
20140365963 | APPLICATION BAR FLYOUTS - An application bar is displayed along with a form. The application bar includes a set of controls for performing actions. At least one of the controls has an associated flyout menu. When the user actuates the control, the flyout menu displays groups of flyout controls, without obscuring the display of the controls on the application bar. | 12-11-2014 |
20150309911 | USER EXPERIENCE DIAGNOSTICS WITH ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS - The performance of computer system responses to user requests is measured and evaluated in the context of physical computing resource operation. Diagnostic information related to computer system performance is selectively provided based the measured performance and physical computing resource operation. | 10-29-2015 |
20150339679 | CONTEXTUAL INFORMATION MONITORING - Context information in a computer system is collected. Dependent context data maintains a reference to parent context data so that system context can be reconstructed and analyzed. | 11-26-2015 |
