20080216052 | Application Program Interface for Network Software Platform - An application program interface (API) provides a set of functions that make available support for processing XML documents for application developers who build Web applications on Microsoft Corporation's .NET™ platform. | 09-04-2008 |
20080306617 | CORE OBJECT-ORIENTED TYPE SYSTEM FOR SEMI-STRUCTURED DATA - A type system employing structural subtyping is disclosed herein. A core type system supports several structural types, such as stream, choice, intersection and sequence. Also part of the core type system is a new invariant type, which denotes values whose dynamic type is the same as its static type, and type restrictions for limiting a range of a base type. Furthermore, a streamlined structural version of delegates, called structural delegates and a validation method thereof are introduce into the type system. To further facilitate type safety, strict statically checked interface casts are introduced. | 12-11-2008 |

20090006947 | Model-Based Editors for Dynamic Validation - Tools and techniques for dynamically validating editors are described herein. The tools may provide machine-readable storage media containing machine-readable instructions for receiving indications of user edits to a portion of a document, and for determining whether a customized editor is available for the edited portion of the document. The tools may also provide systems that include at least the dynamically validating editor. | 01-01-2009 |
20090030921 | INCREMENTAL PARSING OF HIERARCHICAL FILES - An incremental parser for hierarchical files is provided where the file can be parsed into a tree representation. Changes to the file can effectuate incremental changes to the tree such that the whole hierarchical file need not be reparsed; the incremental change modifies the necessary portions of the tree, not necessarily the entire tree. Moreover, the incremental parser can intelligently handle errors related to modification of the hierarchical file, such as unmatched tags corresponding to unmatched nodes in the tree. Such error handling provides operability with the malformed hierarchical file rather than providing an error and/or rejecting the file as modified. | 01-29-2009 |
20100242027 | IDENTIFYING GROUPS AND SUBGROUPS - Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to automatically identifying groups and subgroups in dependency data. In aspects, a data structure that indicates dependencies between components is analyzed to create groups that are related by dependencies. The groups are further analyzed to create subgroups that depend on shared components but that do not depend on each other. Information about the components is used to generate names for the groups that are indicative of the components included in the groups. The groups, their names, and their relationships may then be displayed. | 09-23-2010 |
20110249002 | MANIPULATION AND MANAGEMENT OF LINKS AND NODES IN LARGE GRAPHS - Scalable architecture for managing and rendering a large graph containing a large number of nodes and edges. The user can group arbitrary nodes to encapsulate complexity without losing any of the cross-group edges dependencies. All edges of the nodes contained in the group are rolled up into roll-up links (or “arteries”) where the graphical thickness indicates relatively how many links are bundled. By collapsing groups the entire view gives the user a clearer understanding of the graph. Information related to the groups and links is retained for drill-into to obtain the details inside each group on the same canvas and for user navigation across groups. | 10-13-2011 |
20120133579 | GESTURE RECOGNITION MANAGEMENT - A system and method for managing the recognition and processing of gestures. A system provides a mechanism to detect conflicts between gesture recognizers and resolve the conflicts. A runtime system receives notifications from gesture recognizers in the form of requests for resources or actions. A conflict detector determines whether a conflict with another gesture recognizer exists. If a conflict exists, a conflict resolver determines a resolution. This may include determining a winning gesture recognizer and deactivating the losing gesture recognizers. A design time system statically validates gesture recognizers based on static state machines corresponding to each gesture recognizer. | 05-31-2012 |
