Patent number: 9948583Abstract: System and methods are provided for receiving identification information from remote user devices associated with users. The identification information serves to obtain corresponding stored user profiles. Primary communication channels are generated for each user based upon their profiles. Each such primary channel is limited to communication with, and facilitates electronic communication between, a single corresponding enterprise data source, and users. For each respective primary channel in a subset of the primary channels of a first user, a corresponding plurality of sub-channels is generated based upon their profile. Each such plurality of sub-channels forms a corresponding hierarchical tree with the corresponding primary channel as root node and the sub-channels as child nodes.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2017Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignee: Pypestream Inc.Inventors: Richard Smullen, Jeremy Sterns, Jeremy Glassenberg, Joerg Habermeier, Jatin Patel, Hans van de Bruggen

Patent number: 9851874Abstract: Techniques for generating and providing personalized interactive tours of various features of a webpage are described. According to various embodiments, it may be determined that a device associated with a user is accessing a webpage including various webpage features. Personalized experience scores corresponding to the webpage features may be calculated. Each of the personalized experience scores may indicate a current experience level of the user with the corresponding webpage feature. Thereafter, a specific webpage feature may be identified, where the personalized experience scores indicate that the user has a relatively low current experience level with that specific webpage feature. A user-selectable tour entry user interface element may be displayed on the webpage, wherein the tour entry user interface element includes a link to an interactive tour describing the specific webpage feature.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2013Date of Patent: December 26, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Hans van de Bruggen, Matthew David Shoup, Gordon Koo

Patent number: 9641470Abstract: System and methods are provided for receiving identification information from remote user devices associated with users. The identification information serves to obtain corresponding stored user profiles. Users are engaged with pre-existing primary communication channels for each user based upon their profiles. Each such primary channel facilitates electronic communication between a corresponding enterprise data source and users. For each respective primary channel in a subset of the primary channels of a first user, a corresponding plurality of sub-channels is generated based upon their profile. A sub-channel enables secure bidirectional communication between (i) the remote user device associated with a first user and (ii) the enterprise data source associated with the primary channel to which the sub-channel is associated.Type: GrantFiled: September 19, 2016Date of Patent: May 2, 2017Assignee: Pypestream Inc.Inventors: Richard Smullen, Jeremy Sterns, Jeremy Glassenberg, Joerg Habermeier, Jatin Patel, Hans van de Bruggen

Publication number: 20150327038Abstract: In various example embodiments, systems and methods for facilitating event attendee networking are provided. A plurality of check-ins associated with attendance of an event is received. Attendee members are identified from among members of a social network service based on the plurality of check-ins. Contact members are identified from among the attendee members for a particular member among the attendee members. An abridged attendee list that includes at least one of the identified attendee members and excludes at least one of the identified contact members is generated. The abridged attendee list is presented on a user device of the particular member.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 16, 2015Publication date: November 12, 2015Inventors: Siva Visakan Sooriyan, Asa Kusuma, Artur Kubalski, Vinoth Chandar, Hans van de Bruggen
