Patent number: 7865964Abstract: A first device is used to initiate and direct a rights-management transaction, such as content licensing, acquisition, or activation, on behalf of a second device. The first device may, for example, be a desktop computer, laptop computer, or electronic kiosk at a bricks-and-mortar store. The second device may, for example, be a handheld computer that is cradled to establish communicative connectivity with the first device. A user interacts with the first device to initiate a transaction on behalf of the second device. The first device then obtains the information from the second device that is necessary to perform the transaction on behalf of the second device, communicates with a server, and provides the result of the server communication to the first device. Thus, the first device acts as a proxy for the second device.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2007Date of Patent: January 4, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Attila Narin, Marco A. DeMello

Patent number: 7827156Abstract: An organization maintains a computer network comprising at least a forest A and a forest B, where forest A has a directory A and a querying entity A capable of querying directory A, and forest B has a directory B and a querying entity B capable of querying directory B. Querying entity A receives a request from the user and decides whether to grant the request based at least in part on whether the user is a member of the group. Thus, querying entity A queries directory A to return information on the group, is directed to forest B, contacts querying entity B, requests querying entity B to query directory B whether the user is a member of the group, receives a response, and grants the request from the user based at least in part on whether the user is a member of the group.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2003Date of Patent: November 2, 2010Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Peter David Waxman, Chandramouli Venkatesh, Yevgeniy Eugene Rozenfeld, Attila Narin

Patent number: 7697506Abstract: An enhanced computer telephony integration system that facilitates the interaction and integration of a private branch exchange (PBX) with a client computer on a computer network. An enhanced telephony (ET) server connects to the PBX and to all running instances of an ET client on a user's computers. The ET server acts as a proxy between the ET clients and the PBX. The ET clients register with the ET server for a certain telephone extension. The ET server then can forward telephone action requests (such as placing a telephone call) from the registered ET clients to the PBX servicing the telephone extension. Moreover, the ET server can relay telephone events (such as an incoming call) from the PBX to all registered clients. The ET server facilitates seamless integration of telephone and personal computer features to provide a rich user-controlled computer-telephone integration for a user.Type: GrantFiled: August 29, 2003Date of Patent: April 13, 2010Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Attila Narin, Jonathan Jay Cadiz, Anoop Gupta, Michael Boyle, Gavin Jancke

Patent number: 7650493Abstract: A secure first process uses a non-secure software object by hosting said non-secure software object in a separate second process, where the first process's address space is inaccessible to the second process. The first process communicates with the second process, preferably by means of a COM API that the second process exposes to the first process. The application that runs in the second process may expose APIs of the hosted non-secure object to the first process, and the first process may communicate with the non-secure object hosted in the second process through this API. In a preferred embodiment, the second process renders its output in a child window of the first process, so that the use of a second process to host non-secure software objects is transparent to a user of the first process.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2006Date of Patent: January 19, 2010Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventor: Attila Narin

Patent number: 7634429Abstract: An architecture for an integrated shopping service that enables electronic shopping from within a software application. The software application includes web browsing functionality, with the capability to navigate to a limited set of web sites. The client machine on which the software runs maintains a local list of the limited set of web sites that can be accessed from within the software application. A directory server maintains a list of retail web sites that can be added to the client's local list of accessible web sites. Each client machine that runs the software application connects to the directory server in order to add web sites to the locally-maintained list of sites that can be accessed from within the integrated shopping service.Type: GrantFiled: May 6, 2004Date of Patent: December 15, 2009Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Attila Narin, Marco A.
