Appl. No.:

10/422932

Inventors:

Scott Consolatti - Raleigh NC, US
Charles Jaynes - Apex NC, US
Tracy Rankin - Durham NC, US
Lawrence Smith - Cary NC, US

Assignee:

International Business Machines Corporation - Armonk NY

International Classification:

G06F017/00

US Classification:

715/513000

Abstract:

A system and method for generating high-function browser widgets with full addressability are provided. With the system and method, custom JSP tags are utilized that generate JavaScript objects to provide the high-function browser widgets. The JavaScript objects, in turn, output HTML for use by a client side Web browser. These JavaScript objects have instance-level functions or actions that are encapsulated in the widget as well as a complete client-side model representation of the data also encapsulated in the widget object. These objects and actions are fully addressable by the developer via a getWidgetByID method on a global utility object. As a result, higher-level features and full inter-widget communication are achievable using the custom JSP tags of the present invention.

US Classification:

455411, 726 29, 4554561

Abstract:

A computer program product that includes a computer useable storage medium to store a computer readable program for proximity-based authentication for managing personal data that, when executed on a computer, causes the computer to perform operations. The operations include receiving a request for personal data from a data access device, determining a first location corresponding to a location of the data access device, and determining a second location corresponding to a location of an authentication device. The operations also include transmitting the personal data to the data access device if the first location is within a threshold distance of the second location.
