| 20100205196 | Virtual File System for the Web - Uniform access to files across multiple Web services, each of which hosts files and optionally folders but which have different paradigms, different user accounts, and different APIs is provided. In one embodiment the uniform representation is responsive to a uniform API; and an adapter functionality arranged to adapt commands of the uniform API to the respective particular API of the respective third party Web based services which do not support the uniform API. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20100153948 | COMBINED WEB AND LOCAL COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - A system and method enabling two way communication between a virtual hosted operating system running in a web page and the local operating system and applications in order to allow a user to combine the advantages of both systems. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100153862 | General Object Graph for Web Users - A General Object Graph is described arranged for sharing structured data between users and between applications and for social networking between the users, an associated graphical user interface and application to a virtual file system with an associated authorization scheme. A distributed version of the General Object Graph is also presented known as a General Object Graph. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100153569 | System and Method for a Virtual Hosted Operating System - A system and method enabling a virtual hosted operating system which provides many of the functions normally associated with a physical computer as a “virtual computer” service available from a web browser by leveraging and seamlessly aggregating third-party web services. | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100064234 | System and Method for Browser within a Web Site and Proxy Server - A computer implemented method of browsing, comprising: rendering a browser within a web page; inputting a target URL in an input field of said web page browser; submitting said input target URL to a proxy server as a request; proxifying said request; forwarding said proxified request to said target URL; receiving a response to said proxified request; and forwarding said received response to said rendered web page browser, wherein said web page browser renders the forwarded response without being overwritten. | 03-11-2010 |
| 20100049790 | Virtual Identity System and Method for Web Services - A comprehensive identity management system for users of multiple Web applications. The system supports multiple standards spanning both inbound and outbound single sign-on and integration with an application directory for coupling discovery of third-party applications with single sign-on. | 02-25-2010 |
| 20080222148 | LEXICOGRAPHICAL ORDERING OF REAL NUMBERS - A computer implemented method of representing real numbers of positive and negative sign as a character string such that the a lexicographical ordering of the character string matches the numeric ordering of the real numbers. In the method, a real number is expressed as at least one whole number followed by at least one fractional number, times a predetermined base to a whole number exponent. In one embodiment the representation is formed by concatenating, in a predetermined order: a representation of the sign of the real number; a representation of the numeric ordering responsive to the exponent; a representation of the exponent; and a representation of the whole numbers followed by a representation of the at least one fractional number. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080222114 | EFFICIENT DIRECTED ACYCLIC GRAPH REPRESENTATION - An efficient representation of a changing directed acyclic graph (DAG) in a computer system. A representation of all the paths in the DAG are stored in memory and kept synchronized with the representation of the DAG which may change over time. This allows some important queries to be performed very quickly such as finding all the descendants of a node. | 09-11-2008 |
| 20080221867 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTERNATIONALIZATION - A system and method for internationalizing user interfaces associated with Web pages and other software and especially interactive web pages. Translation files are stored in a server and transmitted to clients as needed. Preferably strings are arranged in a tree so that the client can request specific subtrees. The user interface responds dynamically to a change in the user's language preference, without requiring a restart of the application. | 09-11-2008 |
