TRANSMITTING MULTIMEDIA STREAMS TO USERS
Examples disclosed herein provide the ability for remote participants in a collaborative workspace to hear and view specified participants in a conference room. In on example, a computing device may receive streams of content from devices located in a room, and receive requests from users. As an example, each user request is for accessing a subset of the streams of content. For each user request, the computing device may join the requested subset of the streams of content into a single multimedia stream, and transmit each single multimedia stream to respective users.
Method and apparatus for a benchmarking service
Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are described herein that are configured to be embodied as a benchmarking service. In an example, an apparatus is configured to access input data, wherein the input data is representative of a current project; parse the input data to generate one or more input project units; extract one or more features from the one or more input project units, wherein the features are representative of at least one of project statistics, project bugs, project releases, project documentations, and organization data; receive a benchmarking model, wherein the benchmarking model was derived using a historical data set; and generate an output based on the benchmarking model and the one or more features, wherein the output is configured to provide an evaluation of the current project in the form at least one of a score and one or more recommendations.

MAINTAINING STATE OF DOCUMENT CONCURRENTLY EDITED BY TWO COMPUTING SYSTEMS BY DETERMINING LOCATIONS OF EDITS BASED ON INVERSE TRANSFORMATIONS
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium may comprise instructions stored thereon. The instructions, when executed by at least one processor, may be configured to cause the first computing system to at least generate a collection of inverse transformations of an index of the document, the collection of inverse transformations being based on at least one asymmetric local edit to the document by the first computing system, determine a location within the document to perform a remote edit by the second computing system based on the collection of inverse transformations of the index of the document, perform the remote edit to the document at the determined location based on the remote edit by the second computing system, and perform at least one local edit to the document based on the at least one asymmetric local edit to the document by the first computing system.
METHOD OF COLLABORATIVE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT
A method of collaboratively developing software includes recording a plurality of developers' tasks relating to a collection of software development files via software executing on a computer. The method further includes calculating a proximity score between a plurality of tasks based on the overlap of the developers' activities via software executing on a computer. The method further includes selecting and capturing a group of task properties that along with the proximity score can be used to select a group of task pairings that require coordination. The method further includes notifying the developers assigned to the task pairings selected that they may need to coordinate their development efforts.
System and method for collaborative ink management
A system, method and computer program product for use in managing collaboration on documents having digital ink on a network of computing devices is disclosed. Each computing device has a processor and at least one system application for processing handwriting input under control of the processor. The system application displays, on a display associated with one of the computing devices, a document having digital ink based on a journal of the document, defines the journal to have journal entries associated with at least handwriting input to the document represented by the digital ink, and communicates the journal entries of the journal with one or more of the other networked computing devices displaying the document. The handwriting input associated with the journal entries is handwriting input to the document via the input interface of any of the computing devices displaying the document based on the communicated journal entries.
SYSTEM AND METHOD OF PROVIDING A VIRTUAL GUESTBOOK
A system and method are disclosed for accessing, by a computing device, a database that includes: business information representing a plurality of respective businesses that sell products and/or services to customers and customer information representing a plurality of respective customers, that purchase the products and feedback information representing submissions from the respective customers regarding experiences of the customers in connection with the respective businesses. Information associated with a sale of a product and/or service is processed including to associate a code with the sale. The customer is prompted to submit feedback information associated with the business and/or the sale of the product and/or service, and the feedback information is processed to store the feedback in the database and to provide the feedback information in a virtual guestbook associated with the business.
METHOD, APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR SHARING INTERFACE ANNOTATIONS AMONG PARTICIPATING DEVICES WITHIN A GROUP-BASED COMMUNICATION SYSTEM
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products for sharing a shared interface and allowing participants to annotate the shared interface within a group-based communication system. A shared interface is shared by an interface sharing device to participating devices, which can then individually annotate the shared interface by creating interface annotations that then are shared on the shared interface by the interface sharing device. Such methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer program products provide for an efficient and effective method of advancing discussions among a group in a group-based communication system.
