Abstract: In some implementations, a computing device can provide a map application providing a representation of a physical structure of venues (e.g., shopping centers, airports) identified by the application. In addition, the application can provide an inside view that includes the physical layout and geometry of the venue's structure as well as the location, structure and layout of points of interest (e.g., stores, security check points, restrooms) within the venue. The views become more detailed as the user zooms into the venue to reveal points of interest and to give the user a feel for traversing the venue.

Abstract: Provided is an improved direct store delivery (DSD) system for providing customized information to a user. The DSD system includes a device that receives a first voice command from the user and determines a current location of the user. The first voice command is then transformed into a first text request based on a conversion of the points in speech to points in data. Further, the first text request is processed to determine a first set of information, based on a current location of the device, to be provided audibly to the user. The first set of information is transmitted to the user through speech. The device further receives a second voice command from the user to interact with the first set of information. The second voice command is processed to determine a final set of information, and the final set of information is visually displayed to the user in an instance in which the user has arrived at a desired location.

Abstract: A method includes recognizing an item within a first document based on a pattern associated with the item but not the exact content of the item. The method further includes identifying a link for the item and providing a second document that includes information associated with the item when the link for the item is selected.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are described for controlling a highlighting of one of a plurality of operational objects on a display. A spatially continuous movement of a pointing position on the display, which is provided by a user by means of a user input interface is converted in the highlighting of one of the plurality of objects. If the pointing position coincides with one of the plurality of objects, this object is highlighted (130). When the pointing position is on empty space between the objects, an appropriate one of the plurality of objects is highlighted (160). The parameter used to determine the object to be highlighted is at least the distance from the pointing position to the objects.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for managing and persisting application interfaces and windows into reusable arrangements. In one example, a method may include identifying a work area of a first user, the work area including a presentation of a plurality of windows, each window associated with an application and receiving a selection of at least one of the plurality of windows in the work area. In response to receiving a request to associate the selected windows with a workplace schema, locations of the selected windows in the work area are determined. The determined locations of the selected windows are stored in a first workplace schema, where the first workplace schema stores the layout of the work area based on the determined locations of the selected windows.

Abstract: The present solution provides a variety of techniques for accelerating and optimizing network traffic, such as HTTP based network traffic. The solution described herein provides techniques in the areas of proxy caching, protocol acceleration, domain name resolution acceleration as well as compression improvements. In some cases, the present solution provides various prefetching and/or prefreshening techniques to improve intermediary or proxy caching, such as HTTP proxy caching. In other cases, the present solution provides techniques for accelerating a protocol by improving the efficiency of obtaining and servicing data from an originating server to server to clients. In another cases, the present solution accelerates domain name resolution more quickly. As every HTTP access starts with a URL that includes a hostname that must be resolved via domain name resolution into an IP address, the present solution helps accelerate HTTP access.

Abstract: A method and system for correcting a mistyped word resulting from at least one of an inaccurate keyboard input and wrong keyboard layout is disclosed. The method comprises selecting a first n-characters of a first word, selecting candidate characters that are likely subsequent characters to the first n-characters by calculating a candidate score value for each candidate character; generating a respective positive reformulated word for each selected candidate characters which corresponds to the first word having replaced the n+1 character with the respective candidate character; and training a machine learning algorithm (MLA) to determine a set of features representing a property between each reformulated words and the first word; and training the MLA to determine the reformulated word having an absence of a mistype.

Abstract: Methods and devices for minimizing and maximizing displayed output associated with applications are provided. More particularly, an application presented across two or more screens of a device in a landscape mode can be minimized to present portion of the application in one of the screens. With respect to a maximization operation received with respect to a page of an application results in the expansion of the displayed portion of the application to multiple screens of the device. Input to effect minimization and maximization operations can be entered in one or more gesture capture regions associated with the screens.

Abstract: Access is provided for different types of media content provided by disparate publishers, and in formats corresponding to operating characteristics of respective user devices. As consistent with one or more example embodiments herein, media content access is filtered for users requesting access via different user devices, based upon characteristics of the device to which the access is provided, user subscription data and publisher-specific criteria. A user-specific storefront interface is generated for each of a multitude of users, based upon the filtering. Each storefront interface indicates media content that can be displayed at the device to which access is requested, and identifies media content to which the user does and does not have subscription access. The user-specific storefront interfaces are presented at respective user devices, and media content is delivered to each device in response to selections made via the user-specific storefront interfaces.
