  • Patent number: 10678646
    Abstract: Systems and methods for recovering a process in an application are disclosed. According to some aspects, a guest process is run within an application executing at a computing device. The guest process stores and processes untrusted content. An embedder process is run within the application and in parallel with the guest process. The embedder process stores and processes trusted content and a guest process state. The guest process state is periodically updated based on asynchronous communication between the guest process and the embedder process. The embedder process receives an indication of an execution failure of the guest process. The guest process is recovered after the execution failure based on the guest process state stored by the embedder process.

  • Patent number: 10326780
    Abstract: Systems and methods for presenting information associated with an application are disclosed. An application is executed at a computing device, wherein the application presents a visual output at a display unit of the computing device. A guest process is run within the application. The guest process stores and processes untrusted content. An embedder process is run within the application and in parallel with the guest process. The embedder process stores and processes trusted content. The application receives, via the guest process, a request to present an image associated with the untrusted content. The embedder process specifies size constraints for the image. The guest process adjusts the image to fit within the size constraints specified via the embedder process.

  • Patent number: 10303752
    Abstract: Systems and methods for transferring a web content display from one container to another container are disclosed. A request to transfer a first web content display hosted in a first container having a first document object model (DOM) tree to a second container having a second DOM tree is received. The first web content display has a state comprising a plurality of state components. A second web content display hosted in the second container is created. If a first state component is dependent on a property of the first DOM tree associated with a host of the first web content display: the first state component is adjusted in the second web content display according to a corresponding property of the second DOM tree.

  • Patent number: 9826008
    Abstract: Systems and methods embedding a guest module within an embedder module are disclosed. According to some aspects, a user interface item associated with a guest module is presented, via an embedder module executing at a computer, within a user interface of the embedder module, wherein the guest module is identified via a tag in the embedder module. An indication of a user interaction with the user interface item is received. A service responsive to the indication of the user interaction with the user interface item is provided via an executing instance of the guest module and using information associated with the tag. The executing instance of the guest module is external to the embedder module and distinct from the embedder module.

  • Patent number: 9563489
    Abstract: Systems and methods embedding a guest module within an embedder module are disclosed. According to some aspects, an embedder module is executed at a computer. A request to access a guest module is received via the embedder module. The request comprises a tag in a programming language. The tag identifies the guest module. An event is provided, using information associated with the tag, to an executing instance of the guest module responsive to the request to access the guest module. Processing of the event at the executing instance of the guest module is signaled.

  • Patent number: 9380534
    Abstract: A system and method for selecting a power efficient network interface are provided. One or more network interfaces for data transfer are detected on an electronic device. An active network interface from the one or more network interfaces, where the active network interface is active for data transfer, is identified. One or more power profiles corresponding to the one or more network interfaces are obtained. A power efficient network interface for data transfer from the one or more network interfaces based on the one or more obtained power profiles is determined. In a case where the determined power efficient network interface is not the active network interface, the power efficient network interface is activated for data transfer; data transfer by the active network interface is suspended after the power efficient network interface has been activated.
