20110154486 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGING USER ACCESS TO A COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - Methods and apparatus for controlling user access to a computing environment are provided. In one embodiment, a method performed by a user is provided for gaining access to at least one computing device. The method comprises gaining access to the at least one computing device at a first time by providing credential information to the at least one computing device to authenticate the user's identity to the at least one computing device; presenting to the at least one computing device a physical device comprising identifying information to associate the physical device with the user authenticated by the credential information; and gaining access to the at least one computing device at a subsequent time by presenting the physical device to the at least one computing device without providing the credential information. | 06-23-2011 |
20110055912 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR ENABLING CONTEXT SHARING - Some embodiments relate to processing a web page requested by a web browser. The requested web page is received, and additional code is inserted into the web page that alters and/or augments the functionality of the web page. The web page is then forwarded to the web browser that requested it. The browser executes the code inserted into the web page, thereby augmenting the functionality of the web page. | 03-03-2011 |
20100146046 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR VERIFYING CONTEXT PARTICIPANTS IN A CONTEXT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN A NETWORKED ENVIRONMENT - Methods and apparatus related to context management in a networked environment are provided. According to one aspect, technique is employed to verify that a remote application is emulated on the same client as at least one other application in a context by receiving from the client and the remote application server information that uniquely identifies the client. | 06-10-2010 |
20100100956 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR MANAGING USER ACCESS TO A COMPUTING ENVIRONMENT - Methods and apparatus for controlling user access to a computing environment are provided. In one embodiment, a method performed by a user is provided for gaining access to at least one computing device. The method comprises gaining access to the at least one computing device at a first time by providing credential information to the at least one computing device to authenticate the user's identity to the at least one computing device; presenting to the at least one computing device a physical device comprising identifying information to associate the physical device with the user authenticated by the credential information; and gaining access to the at least one 10 computing device at a subsequent time by presenting the physical device to the at least one computing device without providing the credential information. | 04-22-2010 |
20090307311 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR PERFORMING CONTEXT MANAGEMENT IN A NETWORKED ENVIRONMENT - Methods and apparatus related to context management in a networked environment are provided. According to one aspect, a technique is provided for facilitating communication between a client and a context management (CM) server, comprising establishing a network connection between the client and the CM server to enable communication, and maintaining the connection for the period of time during which the context is maintained. According to another aspect, a requested change in at least one aspect of a context is facilitated by publishing a change decision from the context management server to the participant applications. In another aspect, a technique is employed to verify that a remote application is emulated on the same client as at least one other application in a context by receiving from the client and the remote application server information that uniquely identifies the client. In a further aspect, a technique is employed for verifying that two remote applications are emulated on a same client by receiving information from the remote applications that uniquely identifies the client on which they are emulated. | 12-10-2009 |
