Patent number: 9507650Abstract: In one or more embodiments, an application program interface (API) is provided and enables an entity, such as an application, script, or other computing object to register to receive callbacks immediately and, without specifying a time constraint. In this approach, the API does not rely on a timer, such as a system timer. Rather, a non-timer based queue, such as a message queue-type approach is utilized. Specifically, callbacks that are registered through this API can be placed on the message queue and work associated with the registered callback can be performed through the normal course of processing messages and events in the message queue. Over time, such results in a callback pattern that allows an associated web browser and applications such as web applications to remain responsive, while increasing performance and power efficiencies.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2011Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: M. David Fields, Jr., Cenk Ergan, Qiang Chen, Michael D. Decker, Kedar Sanjeev Hirve, Walter V. von Koch, Jason J. Weber, Katerina V. Sedova, Karen Elizabeth Parker Anderson

Patent number: 9449113Abstract: Browser storage management techniques are described. In one or more implementations, inputs are received at a computing device that specify maximum aggregate sizes of application and database caches, respectively, of browser storage to be used to locally store data at the computing device. For example, the inputs may be provided using a policy, by an administrator of the computing device, and so on. The maximum aggregate sizes are set of application and database caches, respectively, of browser storage at the computing device to the sizes specified by the inputs.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2011Date of Patent: September 20, 2016Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Israel Hilerio, David J. Sheldon, David Vaughn Winkler, Matthew R. Cox, Jonathan A. Silvera, Ivan D. Pashov, Martin A. Chisholm, Dany Joly, Victor Ngo, Adam U. Herchenroether, Katerina V.

Publication number: 20160212252Abstract: An antimicrobial cell phone casing for preventing the accumulation of microbes on and the spread of microbes from the surface of a mobile device. The adjustable antimicrobial cell phone casing defines a rectangular plastic bag style housing having an exterior surface covered with the conventional antimicrobial film coating, either a reclosable top opening or a reclosable side opening, a set of top sound holes, and a set of bottom holes. Both the reclosable top opening and a reclosable side opening define press-to-seal zipper strips. The top sound holes define a set of holes disposed in each top corner of the plastic housing, while the bottom holes define a set of holes disposed in the middle of the bottom of the plastic housing.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 19, 2015Publication date: July 21, 2016Inventor: Elizabeth Parker

Patent number: 8884970Abstract: Various embodiments align callbacks to a scripting component that enable the scripting component to update animation, with a system's refresh notifications. Specifically, an application program interface (API) is provided and implemented in a manner that generates and issues a callback to the scripting component when the system receives a refresh notification. This provides the scripting component with a desirable amount of time to run before the next refresh notification.Type: GrantFiled: September 9, 2011Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: M. David Fields, Jr., Cenk Ergan, Qiang Chen, Michael D. Decker, Katerina V. Sedova, Karen Elizabeth Parker Anderson, Jatinder Singh Mann, Walter V. von Koch, Jason J. Weber

Publication number: 20130219383Abstract: Various embodiments enable installable applications that are to be used on a local client machine to utilize an application cache manifest file that resides remotely, on the web, to define various resources that are to be updated and available offline after the installable application has been deployed on the local client machine Whenever the content of the manifest file is updated on the web, the installed application automatically updates its local application cache resources and allows the installed application to use those resources offline. This is done without having to install a new update of the application or burden the user with having to navigate to a location to obtain the updated content.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 16, 2012Publication date: August 22, 2013Inventors: Israel Hilerio, David Vaughn Winkler, Daniel R. Thornton, Matthew R. Cox, Karen Elizabeth Parker Anderson, Jesse D. McGatha, Adrian Robert Bateman
