Filed:

Oct 21, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/256261

Inventors:

Steven Elliot - Austin TX, US
Gregory James Kudamik - Morrisville NC, US
Christopher Victor Lazzaro - Austin TX, US
Thanh K. Tran - Austin TX, US

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

H04J 3/14

US Classification:

370229

Abstract:

A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code to receive a user input defining settings at an application layer to form a set of received settings. An adaptive bandwidth control process is executed using the received settings to identify a transmission rate for transmitting data packets across a network. The data packets are transmitted across the network using the identified transmission rate.

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709206, 709207

Abstract:

A method for dynamic information selection based on associated is presented. A user configures a plurality of endnotes in order to assign one of the endnotes to a recipient address. Each endnote may include signature text (e. g. , name, phone number, etc. ), as well as images, web page links, and/or animation, which add to the aesthetics and personalization of a constructed email message. When a user creates an email message that includes one or more email recipient addresses, an endnote manager analyzes each email recipient address and automatically selects one of the configured endnotes based on the email recipient's assigned endnote category. In addition, a user may configure the endnote manager to select an endnote to include in an email messages based upon the time at which the email is created.

International Classification:

G06F 1/00

US Classification:

713300, 713323

Abstract:

In a computing network containing multiple computing devices, a network card in a computing device provides the ability for the computing device to transmit specific types of information while the computing device is in an inactive state. The network card contains processing capabilities that enable it to detect and receive an inquiry directed to that device, process the inquiry, retrieve the requested data which is stored in the network card and transmit that information to the requestor. The ability of the network card to perform this enables system administrators to perform certain system maintenance functions while a computer may be in a power off or hibernate state instead if having to power on the computing device.

US Classification:

37039542, 370401, 370468

Abstract:

A computer implemented method, apparatus, and computer usable program code to receive data from a source at a plurality of gateways for distribution using a selected priority. The data is transmitted from the plurality of gateways to a plurality of receivers using the selected priority. Every gateway in the plurality of gateways has an adaptive bandwidth control process and a respective set of parameters for controlling the adaptive bandwidth control process for sending the data at the selected priority. Transmission of the data from each gateway for the selected priority has a different impact on other traffic at different gateways in the plurality gateways for the selected priority when different values are set for the set of parameters for the different gateways.

International Classification:

G06F 15/16

US Classification:

709206

Abstract:

A method, system, apparatus, or computer program product is presented for processing electronic messages. An electronic message is received for a recipient from a sender, and a data field is detected in the received electronic message that indicates a request by the sender for a response from the recipient for the received electronic message. The recipient is alerted to the detected request for the response for the received electronic message, and after alerting the recipient, actions are required by the recipient with respect to usage of a data processing system until the recipient uses the data processing system to send a response for the received electronic message to the sender. For example, the recipient can be prevented from closing a review of the received e-mail message, from deleting the received e-mail message, and from exiting the e-mail application until the recipient has responded to the received email message.
