In operation, upon detecting a location signal being transmitted from a mobile device, the location signal is employed to identify a set of valid applications. Generally, the location signal represents location-based information entered to or received from the mobile device. Identifying the set of valid applications involves comparing the location signal against the application manifest and, based on the comparison, designating those apps that are mapped to geographic boundaries that meet the location signal as the set of valid applications. Upon identifying the set of valid applications, a selection of apps included within the set of valid applications is sent to the mobile device for display to the user within a operational context.11-08-2012

The associated phone numbers are mapped to the targeted application and maintained within an application manifest. Upon detecting user-initiated call-based operation(s) at a client device, the phone number(s) involved in the call-based operation(s) are compared against the application manifest to determine relevant applications. The relevant applications are distributed to the client device for presentation within a phone-number context, such as placing an outgoing call, receiving an incoming call, or reviewing a call-history log.08-22-2013

For example, an open market of providers may be maintained (e.g., providers may be added, removed, and/or updated over time), such that providers may be selected from the open market to complete user tasks.10-10-2013
20130304718CONNECTION BETWEEN APP AND WEB SITE - An application (“app”) may be associated with a web site, so that an online service may use the connection between the app and the web site. In one example, the online service is an information provider, such as a search engine or advertising engine. The online service provides a web administrator portal, through which a webmaster provides or generates a secret code. The webmaster gives the secret code to an app developer, who gives the code to an app store when the app is published. If the service provides information about the web site (e.g., as a search result or ad impression), the service may also provide an indication of the app, since the use of the code represents confirmation by both the webmaster and app developer that a relationship exists between the web site and the app.11-14-2013
20140040226PROVIDING APPLICATION RESULT AND PREVIEW - Applications (“apps”), through which a service may be accessed, may be identified to a user, along with a preview of the app. In one example, a user performs a search for a service.

In various illustrative examples, a hosted search app is implemented using HTML5 code generated at a remote search provider server. Responsively to a user query at the search app's user interface (“UI”), the server returns an HTML5 payload including meta tags specifying criteria including app extension categories, actions, and known apps that support search terms in the query. Apps that are installed on the client device which match the criteria can then be displayed and launched through the UI to advantageously enable the users to complete a task specific search. JavaScript interfaces are provided to enable apps to update their install state and to be injected into the hosted search app.03-06-2014
20140067837IDENTIFYING USER-SPECIFIC SERVICES THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH USER-PRESENTED ENTITIES - User-specific services are presented to users together with associated entities. Initially, providers of services provide information about such services, including a name of the service, action that correlates the service to an entity being presented to the user, identification of entities with which the service is correlated, and further information to which the user can be directed. Subsequently, a user can identify those services to which they have a connection, derive the benefits of, or are otherwise associated with. Collections of entities can be reviewed to determine whether any entities are associated with services that the user has identified as having a connection thereto and those entities having such an association can be presented with indicia of such an association. An action is presented to the user, and user action directed thereto provides additional information in the form of a pop-up window, a separately presented collection of information, or both.03-06-2014

20160127267Distributed Switch Architecture - A distributed switch architecture supports very high bandwidth applications. For instance, the distributed switch architecture may be implemented for cloud networks. The architecture scales by organizing traffic management components into tiled structures with distributed buffering. The tile structures are replicated and interconnected to perform transfers from ingress to egress using an interconnect bandwidth scheduling algorithm. Bandwidth scaling may be achieved by adding more tiles to achieve higher bandwidth. The interconnect in the architecture may be swapped out depending on implementation parameters, e.g., physical efficiency.05-05-2016
