| 20080263455 | GRAPHICAL USER INTERFACE FOR ELECTRONIC FILE SHARING - A method, implementable in a system coupled to a display device and a network, includes generating in a first region of a screen of the display device a user-interface portion associated with a first electronic destination address. The user-interface portion is configured to receive from a second region of the screen, in response to a command by a user of the system, a first icon representing a data set. In response to the user-interface portion receiving the first icon, a copy of the data set, or the data set itself, is electronically transferred over the network to the first destination address. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20080294733 | REMOTE SERVICES FOR THIN CLIENT - In an embodiment, instead of a desktop operating system providing basic services, such as file storage and/or identity management, the services may be instead migrated onto a network. Applications running under this new platform use remote servers as a mechanism for providing basic services that were previously provided by the desktop operating system. | 11-27-2008 |
| 20080320493 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING A MOBILE AGENT OBJECT TO COLLECT DATA - Method and system for collecting and filtering messages received at an event source platform and delivering the filtered messages to a collection host platform. According to one embodiment, the system uses a mobile agent object to filter messages received at an event source platform. The mobile agent object determines a filtered set of messages that match predetermined parameters and then delivers the filtered messages to a collection host platform for storage or redirection. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20090138528 | ARCHITECTURE FOR MANAGEMENT OF DIGITAL FILES ACROSS DISTRIBUTED NETWORK - A system includes a first application executable on a first electronic device. The system further includes a second application executable on a second electronic device in communication with the first electronic device. The second electronic device is configured to store a first electronic file. Subsequent to a user modifying the first electronic file, the second application is operable to automatically transfer the modified first electronic file, or a copy thereof, to the first electronic device. The system further includes a third application executable on a third electronic device in communication with the first electronic device. The third electronic device is configured to store a second electronic file. Subsequent to the user modifying the second electronic file, the third application is operable to automatically transfer the modified second electronic file, or a copy thereof, to the first electronic device. The first application is operable to automatically transfer the modified first electronic file or copy to the third electronic device, and automatically transfer the modified second electronic file or copy to the second electronic device. | 05-28-2009 |
| 20100005138 | ELECTRONIC FILE SHARING - A system includes a server and a source client executable on a first electronic device in communication with the server. The source client is operable to make available to the server a set of files modifiable by a user of the first electronic device. The system further includes a first recipient client executable on a second electronic device in communication with the server. The first recipient client is configurable by a user of the second electronic device to automatically receive from the server only a subset of the files having a predetermined characteristic. | 01-07-2010 |
| 20100017799 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ADDING LOCAL RESOURCES FOR USE BY A MOBILE AGENT OBJECT - System and method for importing service objects to a host computing environment. In one embodiment, a method includes the steps of executing a mobile agent object, (called a delivery-mobile agent object) in a mobile-agent runtime environment in a host computing environment and then installing a service object to be executable in the mobile-agent runtime environment. | 01-21-2010 |
| 20100299426 | SERVICE-ORIENTED ARCHITECTURE - A Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) Communication Model (CM) allows a service producer to seek out service consumer types and to send them information. The consumer, actively or passively, is also configured to “advertise.” The information that is advertised could come (passively) from information already in a system, such as an application architecture, comprising the roles and attributes in a consumer's security certificate(s). The information could come (actively) from a registry of users with a system-user ontology that is created especially for this purpose and otherwise is not already in the system. This approach will allow a producer to initiate sending information to a consumer. | 11-25-2010 |
