A smart hypermedia system that acquires user characteristics either directly or inferentially. Simple associative networks serve to model user profiles, including relationships between user goals and the hypermedia information nodes. Hypermedia links to other nodes are recommended by ranking a link list in an order that depends on one or more user profiles containing information relating to users' goals and interests. Users can teach the system directly by rearranging the order of suggested links on the list. The system can also learn indirectly by observing how long and in what sequence the user views each hypermedia information node. User profiles can be combined to form group profiles and may be dynamically and continuously updated to form an adaptive system profile. The two system learning modes may be simultaneous or disjoint.

This invention is directed to relational extenders for a computer-based relational database. Each relational extender includes at least one column, in a first, business, table containing a user defined application database, dedicated to object handles for defining the complex data type of an object; a second, attribute, table containing at least one column defining a unique characteristic associated with the one object and one column dedicated to containing the object handle; and a third, metadata, table containing at least one column defining a common characteristic associated with all objects defined within the business table and one column dedicated to containing the object handle and at least one column dedicated to containing a reference to object data associated with the object. The relational extender further includes a fourth table containing a reference to each object handle column defined in the first table, a fifth table containing the names of the second and third tables for each object defined in the first table, a sixth table containing a reference to each object handle removed from the first table and including one column dedicated to containing a reference to the location of the object data associated with the removed object handle, and a seventh table having at least one column which describes a property of the data type of each object defined in the first table. The relational extender further includes an eighth table as a temporary holding table for the second table, and a ninth table as a temporary holding table for the third table.

Converting an electronic representation of a coordinate based document to an electronic representation of a tag based document is described. Objects, defined by records stored in the electronic representation of the coordinate based document, that are positioned in a current line are identified. The identified objects are sorted based on respective horizontal positions (specifically, from left to right) of the identified objects in an electronic canvas. A vertical distance between the current line and an adjacent line is calculated, and an inter-line tag is generated as a function of the distance. The inter-line tag is stored in the electronic representation of the tag based document.

Methods and systems may provide for identifying a data service having a data locality constraint, determine whether capability data associated with the data service satisfies one or more deployment criteria of a cloud service and bind, if the capability data satisfies the one or more deployment criteria, the cloud service to the data service in accordance with the data locality constraint. In one example, the data service is identified based at least in part on a capability of the cloud service to be provisioned with a deployment location that complies with the data locality constraint.
