Abstract: A system comprises a hollow body forming a closed loop channel; one or more electromagnetic coils on the hollow body; a free-moving magnetic object in the channel; and a control system configured to control the one or more electromagnetic coils to cause the free-moving magnetic object to rotate within the channel during an acceleration phase and to cause one or more magnetic collisions with at least one of the one or more electromagnetic coils during an energy transfer phase, the one or more magnetic collisions causing a directional movement of the system.

Abstract: Various systems and methods described herein relate to server-based computing, where the systems and methods provide a client with access to an application executing remotely from the client device and having access to data (e.g., one or more files) residing on a cloud-based storage (e.g., provided by a third-party cloud-based storage service, such as Dropbox, Box, or Google® Docs). For some systems and methods, the application may be remotely executed and provided to the client such that the application has in-application/embedded access (hereafter, referred to as “native access”) to the cloud-based storage and files residing on the cloud-based storage.

Abstract: A method of remotely providing an application includes identifying a visible portion of a first application window on a display of a client. A data stream corresponding only to the visible portion of the first application window is received. The received data stream is provided to the client such that the visible portion of the first application window is able to be presented on the display.

Additionally, some systems and methods may enable a remotely executed application to receive a gesture user input, even when the remotely executed application is not natively configured to receive such user input.

Abstract: A method of remotely providing an application includes receiving, at an access server, a request for an application from a client. One or more application servers which are capable of providing the requested application are identified base at least in part on a resource of the identified one or more application servers. The client is provided with the identified one or more application servers which are capable of providing the application.
