20090100057 | Organization System for Distributed Items - An item grouping mechanism may be applied to files or other computer objects to allow the files or objects to be accessed according to the group definition. The group definition may be defined in a table with other group definitions and distributed across an organization so that each device using the group definition may have files or other items presented in a consistent manner. The group definition may be distributed through a different mechanism than for the files or other items. If a device determines that a file defined in the group definition is missing from a local store, the device may retrieve the file from a distribution server. | 04-16-2009 |

20120283008 | SECURE, PARALLEL, AND INDEPENDENT SCRIPT EXECUTION - In examples presented herein, a game server and a client device may perform parallel execution of scripts for a computer-implemented virtual game. In one example, in response to determining that a user of a virtual game has performed an in-game action, an update notification is sent to a server computer. The update notification indicates the in-game action and client-side state information. After the sending of the update notification, a first event script to execute is determined based on the in-game action. The first event script is executed to present an in-game effect to the user. An update response is received from the server computer based on execution of a second event script responsive to the in-game action. | 11-08-2012 |

20140051521 | SECURE, PARALLEL, AND INDEPENDENT SCRIPT EXECUTION - A game server and a client device may perform parallel execution of scripts for a computer-implemented virtual game. When the client device determines that a user of the computer-implemented game has performed an in-game action, the client device may send an update notification to the game server that indicates the in-game action and client-side game state information. Then, the client device may determine an event script to execute based on the user's in-game action, and may execute the event script to present an in-game effect to the user in near real-time. Similarly, the game server may determine a corresponding event script to execute based on the in-game action, and may maintain a secure game state by executing the corresponding script independent of the client device's script execution. | 02-20-2014 |

20100023602 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR UPDATING INFORMATION ON AN EMBEDDED SYSTEM - A target system is dynamically configured to boot from a network connection upon power-up. A portable data loader connected to the target system may receive communications from the target system that a connection has been established. In response, a copy of a target-specific software data loader (SWDL) application may be transmitted from the portable data loader to the target system. The copy of the SWDL application may be stored in volatile memory on the target system and may be executed to support at least one maintenance operation. A user may invoke a maintenance operation by entering a command into the portable data loader. By isolating the data loader application from the operational software stored on the target system, the disclosed methods and apparatus may allow for reduced development and software certification costs for implementing maintenance operations on an embedded system. | 01-28-2010 |
