Patent number: 9389928Abstract: Techniques for extension interaction with applications are described. Generally, an extension represents functionality for extending, modifying, customizing, and/or supplementing native functionality of an application. Techniques discussed herein provide a common extension platform that enables an extension to interact with multiple different applications utilizing components of the platform. The common extension platform, for instance, exposes a set of common extension application programming interfaces (APIs) that provide a common interaction surface between extensions and applications.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2015Date of Patent: July 12, 2016Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Tanvi Saumil Surti, Chee Chen Tong, Sean Obafemi Lyndersay, Israel Hilerio, John Anderson Hazen

Publication number: 20150206079Abstract: Systems and methods that implement interactivity as part of a workflow itself. Data is passed in and out of the workflow to form an interactive workflow, via employing an interactive activity component. Such interactive activity component models suspension points within a workflow definition, wherein user input and associated interaction can be supplied to the workflow during various interactivity breaks that request user input. Such an arrangement enables a controlled/synchronous data exchange between the workflow and a host application associated therewith.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2014Publication date: July 23, 2015Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: Andres Sanabria, Constantin Mihai, Nikhil Kothari, Israel Hilerio, Michael Harder, Paul E.

Publication number: 20150046519Abstract: A computer user may use a computing environment comprising a set of computers that respectively feature a web browser having a browser cache containing many types of data objects, including application resources and user-generated data files. However, the contents of a browser cache significantly contribute to the computing environment of a computer, and the computing environments presented by each computer may diverge, providing an inconsistent computing environment. Instead, the contents of browser caches of the computers comprising the computing environment may be synchronized across computers. Additionally, the browser cache may be synchronized with the other data objects of a computing environment (such as relevant portions of the filesystem); the synchronizing may be implemented as an out-of-browser process executing independently of the applications, and even when the browser is not executing; and the synchronization may be exposed through a programmatic access with which web applications may interact.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 18, 2014Publication date: February 12, 2015Inventors: Dharma Shukla, Abhay Parasnis, Raymond Endres, Arash Ghanaie-Sichanie, Israel Hilerio, Farookh Mohammed, Aditya Bhandarkar
