Assignee:

Oracle America, Inc. - Redwood City CA

International Classification:

G06F 7/00

US Classification:

707749, 707750

Abstract:

A method for accessing a file system that includes creating a document index for an active document, identifying a similarity score for each of a plurality of stored documents to generate a list of similar documents, wherein the similarity score is computed by comparing the document index for the active document with a search index for the plurality of stored documents, and displaying the list of similar documents in a file system interface.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707737, 709224

Abstract:

A method for searching and resource discovery in a distributed enterprise (DE), the method including: generating a first classifier for a first repository in the DE; generating a second classifier for a second repository in the DE, where the second classifier has a vector element identifying a location of the second repository; submitting a copy of the second classifier to a web server of the first repository; obtaining a resource at the first repository after submitting the copy of the second classifier; matching the resource to the copy of a second classifier; sending a copy of the resource to the second repository using the vector element; and storing the copy of the resource in the second repository.

Assignee:

Sun Microsystems, Inc. - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707736, 707E17014

Abstract:

A resource analyzer selects a resource (e. g. , document) from a grouping of resources. The grouping of resources can be any type of social tagging system used for information retrieval. The selected resource has an assigned uncontrolled tag and an assigned controlled tag. The controlled tag is a term derived from a controlled vocabulary of terms. Having selected the resource for analyzing, the resource analyzer identifies a first set of resources in the grouping of resources having also been assigned a same value as the uncontrolled tag as the selected resource. Similarly, the resource analyzer identifies a second set of resources in the grouping of resources having also been assigned a same value as the controlled tag. With this information, the resource analyzer then produces a comparison result indicative of a similarity between the first set of resources and the second set of resources.

International Classification:

G07F 7/00

US Classification:

707749, 707750

Abstract:

A method for accessing a file system including computing a first numerical similarity score for a first stored document and a second numerical similarity score for a second stored document by comparing a plurality of weighted active terms with a plurality of weighted indexed terms, determining a document order of the first stored document followed by the second stored document based on the first numerical similarity score exceeding the second numerical similarity score, generating a list of similar documents including the first stored document followed by the second stored document based on the document order, and displaying, in a file system interface and on the computer display, the list of similar documents while an active document is open in an active document interface.

Appl. No.:

11/413641

Inventors:

Jeffrey Alexander - Arlington MA, US
Stephen Green - Wakefield MA, US

Assignee:

Sun Microsystems, Inc. - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707001000

Abstract:

Users can browse a repository of search results obtained from a search engine by mounting a virtual file system, for example, on a network server over a network. The virtual file system contains a hierarchy of categories and is associated with a document repository. Consequently, although documents could be located anywhere, documents indexed by the virtual file system are accessed by users in the original document locations. Accordingly, all changes made by a user are made to the original document rather than to a copy of the document. Therefore, there is no need to upload a copy of the document to the original file location. The search engine can be associated with the virtual file system so that the search engine recognizes the changed document immediately.

Assignee:

Sun Microsystems, Inc. - Santa Clara CA

International Classification:

G06F 17/30

US Classification:

707 3

Abstract:

In a distributed enterprise computing system, personal data repositories are created by individual users who generate classifiers that index the information for those repositories. Each generated classifier also specifies a target repository into which a copy of a resource that matches that classifier is placed. Users can submit classifiers that they created to other repositories. Later, when a user adds a resource to his personal repository, it is checked against all classifiers that have been created by the user and submitted to the repository by other users. If the new resource matches any classifier, a copy of the resource is sent to the repository specified in the classifier, where the resource is archived and indexed.
