20150379153 | COMPOUND TRANSFORMATION CHAIN APPLICATION ACROSS MULTIPLE DEVICES - A compound application that is operated across multiple devices using constituent transformation chains associated with multiple devices. Dependencies are identified between different transformation chain classes. Devices are also identified along with their associated instance of a transformation chain class. Upon determining that the transformation chain instances associated with different devices are to be joined, data is permitted to flow between the various devices in accordance with the identified dependences between their respective classes of the associated transformation chain instances, and in accordance with dependency state between the instances. Thus, a compound transformation chain is formed. As devices exit the environment, the associated transformation chain instances may be removed from the compound transformation chain. Thus, rather than devices having interoperating applications, the devices become mutually engaged with the same compound application. As new devices enter the environment, or as devices exit the environment, the compound application itself changes. | 12-31-2015 |
20150379746 | CINEMATIZATION OF OUTPUT IN COMPOUND DEVICE ENVIRONMENT - Synthesizing of information and application user interface elements into a continuous stream form.

Higher level cinematicity use higher degrees of movement in presenting user interface elements representing the information. In contrast, lower levels of cinematicity use lower or no movement of user interface elements representing the information. | 12-31-2015 |
20150379958 | COMPOUND APPLICATION PRESENTATION ACROSS MULTIPLE DEVICES - Presentation of transformation chain output on devices. The transformation chain includes one or more presentation nodes that drive rendering of output, such that a change in a value in the presentation node causes rendering to occur. In response to a change in value of the presentation node, the presentation system identifies characteristics or various devices that may be used to render the corresponding output. The presentation system identifies an appropriate device based on the identified characteristics of that device. The presentation system then facilitates rendering of at least a version of the output on the selected device, perhaps even transforming the output in a manner suitable for the selected device. In some embodiments, the transformation chain may be a compound transformation chain constructed by joining multiple constituent transformation chains. | 12-31-2015 |
20150381574 | AUTHORIZATION OF JOINING OF TRANSFORMATION CHAIN INSTANCES - The authorizing of transformation chain instances of different transformation chain classes to join so as to act as a compound transformation chain instance. Class-level authorized dependencies are identified between transformation chain classes. Then, instance-level authorization is performed in accordance with one or more joining criteria, presuming that the instances are of appropriate classes that may be joined. The joining allows the instances to act as a single compound transformation chain whereby data is permitted to flow across the boundaries of the constituent transformation chain instances. New transformation chain instances may be joined to the compound transformation chain instances, and transformation chain instances may be removed from the compound transformation chain instance, thereby dynamically changing the compound application. | 12-31-2015 |

As an example, the recalculation user interface may be a spreadsheet program although the principles may apply to an visualization of data sinks that are interconnected to data sources via a transformation chain. The transformation chain includes multiple declarative transformations. A dependency graph is generated through analysis of the declarative transformations of the transformation chain. As the user interacts with the recalculation user interface, the user may cause one or more changes to the transformation chain. The dependencies associated with the transformations may be identified and may be largely isolated. The compiler may then compile that one or more affected dependencies, without compiling the entire recalculation user interface. | 10-16-2014 |
