  • Patent number: 11962627
    Abstract: Executable code comprising a local file system is stored at a collaboration system server for downloading. The remote collaboration system responds to a message from a user device to download the local file system. The local file system to be downloaded is configured to operate on the user device so as to issue requests from the user device to perform an initial access to server-side collaboration data. The collaboration system responds to such requests by predicting interests of the user, which predictions are used to retrieve additional server-side collaboration data. The additional server-side collaboration data is sent to the user device and stored on the user device in an area for locally-stored collaboration system information. The user provides search terms for searching the locally-stored collaboration system information, and results are displayed on the user device. The results are displayed without the need to perform additional communications with remote collaboration system.

  • Patent number: 11663540
    Abstract: A content collaboration system displays a UI allowing a project owner to create and edit a collaboration project, and share the collaboration project with other users. To share the collaboration project, the project owner starts a sharing workflow by providing a user input to the collaboration system UI. The sharing workflow allows the project owner to identify other users with which to share the collaboration project. As part of the sharing workflow, the project owner can input a request via the collaboration system UI to manage (e.g., create or edit) a group of users. In response to such a request, the collaboration system UI causes the group to be created or changed as requested. In response to a request to share the collaboration project with the group the collaboration system UI causes an invitation to access the collaboration project to be sent to the members of the group.

  • Patent number: 11656747
    Abstract: Aspects of this present disclosure relate to hybrid conference user interface. The hybrid conference interface provides an establishing shot before the meeting begins that places meeting attendees in a specific spatial arrangement, such as in specific seats around a conference table. Upon starting the conference, the hybrid user interface renders an appropriate perspective view of the meeting that is tailored to each attendee's perspective while also being spatially consistent for the entire group of attendees. Allowing attendees to place themselves where they want gives attendees a sense of physical space that helps them stay spatially oriented relative to the other people and resources in the room.

  • Patent number: 11620315
    Abstract: The process receives a visual specification, which specifies data sources, visual variables, and data fields from the data sources. Each visual variable is associated with one or more data fields and each data field is either a dimension or a measure. For each measure m, the process identifies a set R(m) consisting of dimensions that are reachable from the measure by a sequence of many-to-one relationships in an object model for the data sources. For each distinct set R, the process forms a data field set S, consisting of each dimension in R and each measure m for which R(m)=R. For each set S and for each measure in the set S, the process aggregates values of the measure according to the dimensions in S. The process builds a data visualization according to the data fields in the set S and the visual variables they are associated with.

  • Patent number: 11595404
    Abstract: Systems and methods support workspaces operating on an Information Handling System (IHS), where the workspaces utilize virtualization to operate in isolation from a portion of the hardware and software of the IHS. Resources of the IHS that are available for use by workspaces are registered with an orchestration service that is remote from the IHS and that manages deployment of workspaces on the IHS. A workspace is instantiated on the IHS according to a workspace definition provided by the orchestration service. The orchestration service also provides a handle that allows the workspace to access a particular resource of the IHS, where the handle includes an interface supported by an embedded controller of the IHS for providing access to the IHS resource. The workspace invokes the IHS resource using an interface provided in the handle. The handle thus provides a communication mechanism for workspaces to utilize local resources of the IHS.

  • Patent number: 11567645
    Abstract: Computer-readable media, methods, and systems are disclosed for displaying paginated growing widgets. At generation time, a pagination service negotiates widget bounds. The pagination service transmits proposed bounds and a starting index to the growing widgets and receives a number of items that can be displayed as well as updated bounds for all items that can be displayed. The pagination service creates a cache entry including a widget identifier, updated widget bounds, and a starting and ending widget data item index. If a particular page is not present in the widget pagination cache, the pagination service performs another bounds negotiation. At display time, the pagination service instructs each of the paginated growing widgets to render updated widget data items based on a corresponding widget pagination cache entry, without reprocessing a document object model associated with a front-end application on which the paginated growing widgets are displayed.

  • Patent number: 11556235
    Abstract: A computer-implemented technique is described herein for efficiently and reliably interacting with a nonconforming application component in a windowing environment. The nonconforming application component corresponds to a type of application (such as, but not limited to, an immersive-type full-screen application) that was not originally designed for presentation of application content in a windowing environment, or was not originally designed for presentation of application content in a windowing environment of a certain type. In some implementations, the computer-implemented technique generates a composite window by: creating a system-owned frame; receiving an application-owned window; and creating the composite window by combining the frame and the application-owned window. The technique can thereafter control the composite window by performing operations on the composite window via its system-owned frame.

  • Patent number: 11543958
    Abstract: An indication of a touch on a touch-enabled screen of a device is received that indicates a selection of a date facet in a listing of items. The date facet denotes a temporal indicator, other facets denote non-temporal indicators. An indication of a pinch gesture is received. The date facet is scaled to produce a scaled-facet listing. The scaling includes modifying a degree of a characteristic of the date facet in an increasing amount including producing a scaled-out listing implemented as an updated portion of item data having a different temporal indicator than an initial display of the item data by an amount proportional to a magnitude of a pinch gesture characteristic of the pinch gesture. The scaled-facet listing is displayed by exposing an updated set of the item data having the modified degree of the characteristic and replacing previous item data with the scaled-out listing.
