20110029593 | LIGHTWEIGHT RRD EXTENSION FRAMEWORK - A local server requests a resource from a remote server by using a remote request dispatcher (RRD) request that has been extended to utilize a javascript object notation (JSON). | 02-03-2011 |
20140358987 | IMPLEMENTING SYNCHRONIZATION OF STATE INFORMATION BETWEEEN INSTANCES OF AN APPLICATION AS WELL AS BETWEEN DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS IN AN EFFICIENT, SCALABLE MANNER - A method, system and computer program product for implementing synchronization of state information in an efficient, scalable manner. A shared state server receives a request from a client device to access a scope containing state information. The scope is distributed over a partition(s) via the use of a “data grid” thereby increasing scalability. The shared state server relays the request to a data grid server responsible for maintaining the data grid comprised of an in-memory cache and partitions outside of the in-memory cache. The request includes a key associated with a value corresponding to the requested state information. The data grid server obtains the value associated with the key from its data grid and sends it to the shared state server to be relayed to the requesting client device. In this manner, the state information is stored in a scalable manner thereby improving the efficiency in synchronizing state information. | 12-04-2014 |

20140359071 | MAINTAINING STATE SYNCHRONIZATION OF AN APPLICATION BETWEEN COMPUTING DEVICES AS WELL AS MAINTAINING STATE SYNCHRONIZATION OF COMMON INFORMATION BETWEEN DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS WITHOUT REQUIRING PERIODIC SYNCHRONIZATION - A method, system and computer program product for maintaining state synchronization of an application between computing devices and maintaining state synchronization of common information between different applications. A server receives a request from a client device to access a shared state scope. A shared state scope is a data store that physically resides on the server, where the data store stores state information. The state information stored in these scopes can be shared among multiple instances of an application residing on multiple client devices. Furthermore, the state information may include common information that is shared among different applications. Upon the server providing access to the requested scope, the server receives an update to the state information stored within the requested scope from the requesting client device. The server then notifies other client devices regarding the update to the state information that have access to the shared state scope. | 12-04-2014 |
20140359072 | MAINTAINING STATE SYNCHRONIZATION OF AN APPLICATION BETWEEN COMPUTING DEVICES AS WELL AS MAINTAINING STATE SYNCHRONIZATION OF COMMON INFORMATION BETWEEN DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS WITHOUT REQUIRING PERIOIDIC SYNCHRONIZATION - A method, system and computer program product for maintaining state synchronization of an application between computing devices and maintaining state synchronization of common information between different applications.

20150039557 | STATE SCOPE DATA FILE SHARING - A method, computer system, and/or computer program product shares state scope data among client devices in a cloud-based file synchronization service, where the client devices are intermittently connected to the cloud-based file synchronization service. In response to a first client device requesting a current version of shared state scope data from a second client device, the cloud-based file synchronization service transmits a request to the second client device for the updated shared state scope data. The updated shared state scope data is stored in the cloud-based file synchronization service, and then transmitted to the first client device. | 02-05-2015 |
20150277713 | EXPANDING TOUCH ZONES OF GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE WIDGETS DISPLAYED ON A SCREEN OF A DEVICE WITHOUT PROGRAMMING CHANGES - A method, system and computer program product for expanding the touch zones of graphical user interface (GUI) widgets. The coordinates of the screen location of the device (e.g., mobile device) where a GUI widget is displayed on the screen is captured in response to detecting the GUI widget being displayed on the screen. A list of objects, including GUI widgets, that are currently being displayed on the screen and corresponding screen location coordinates are obtained. A GUI widget is then identified from the list of objects by matching its screen location coordinates with the captured location coordinates. An algorithm to expand the touch zone (e.g., in a right-to-left alternation) of the GUI widget is then identified based on the type of widget (e.g., list) is the identified GUI widget. In this manner, the user is able to expand the touch zones of GUI widgets in an easy manner. | 10-01-2015 |
