  • Publication number: 20140269542
    Abstract: Various technologies described herein pertain to operating a multi-processor mobile device. An application client executing on an application processor of the multi-processor mobile device negotiates a media session with a service. Responsive to the media session being negotiated, a media offload request is signaled from the application processor to a baseband processor of the multi-processor mobile device. The media offload request includes identification information that signifies packets that form part of the media session. Responsive to receipt of the media offload request, incoming packets received by the baseband processor from a base station are evaluated to detect whether the incoming packets form part of the media session. The incoming packets that form part of the media session are redirected from the baseband processor to a digital signal processor without being routed through the application processor and processed to generate an output, where the output is transmitted to an output device.

  • Publication number: 20100306321
    Abstract: User-defined agents and connectors are defined to process messages for a messaging application. The user-defined agents are configured to extend the capabilities of the messaging application. Each user-defined agent is associated with a connector that is configured to route messages for a particular address space according to the specified protocol. Upon receipt of a routed message within the particular address space, the messaging application on the server invokes the associated user-defined agent to process the message. The user-defined agent utilizes an API that is associated with the messaging application to assist in processing the message.

  • Patent number: 6272492
    Abstract: A system and method for system for electronic communication, in which functional enhancements may be added that require no modification or replacement of the content-storing servers and is transparent to web browser software. The system includes a front-end proxy server and at least one back-end server. The front-end proxy server receives a content request from a user system, processes the content request, and transmits the processed content request to a back-end server. The front-end proxy server receives a content item corresponding to the processed content request from the back-end server and transmits the content item to the user system. The back-end server comprises a content storage device containing a plurality of content items. The back-end server receives processed content requests from the front-end proxy server, retrieves a content item corresponding to the content request and transmits the retrieved content item to the front-end proxy server.
