20150371411 | COMPUTERIZED SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR RENDERING A USER INTERFACE ELEMENT - Computer-implemented systems and methods are provided for rendering user interface elements. In accordance with some embodiments, a semantic name may be associated with an element of a user interface. Characteristics of an image associated with the user interface may be identified and compared with rules associated with the semantic name to identify a color. The element of the user interface may then be rendered in the identified color. Computer-implemented systems and methods are also provided for identifying a color for a user interface element. Characteristics of an image may be compared with each of a plurality of sets of rules associated with semantic names. A color that satisfies the set of rules may be identified for each of the sets of rules, and the identified colors may be presented to an operator. | 12-24-2015 |

20100100953 | PassThru for Client Authentication - This disclosure pertains generally to client authentication. One aspect of the disclosure relates to a first server for presenting evidence to a Domain Controller (DC) of a first authentication context being submitted from a client to the first server to obtain a delegable credential, wherein the credential can be used to request a second authentication context from that client to a second server. Another aspect relates to the first server providing a pass-thru with evidence to a DC. The evidence relates to a first authentication context being submitted from a client to the first server that it obtained a delegable credential. The pass-thru is used in combination with the credential to request a second authentication context from the client to a second server. | 04-22-2010 |
