  • Patent number: 12079603
    Abstract: A universal application framework enables efficient user purposeful interface (UI) application development with a novel perspective editor which itself can be an UI application. The perspective editor can be utilized to create perspectives, each of which can be specific to a purpose. UI applications thus developed can be mapped to the same target mapping which points to a technical application component of a frontend server of the universal application framework. The technical application component can provide action and navigation information for a part of the UI applications not specific to any purpose. A perspective is bound to logical entities such as a node representing rows from a table. The perspective can have a perspective type and a data view of the rows from the table in a layout. The perspective type controls which data view is usable in the perspective.

  • Patent number: 12080091
    Abstract: A bipartite application implements a table auto-completion (TAC) algorithm on the client side and the server side. A client module runs a local model of the TAC algorithm on a user device and a server module runs a global model of the TAC algorithm on a server machine. The local model is continuously adapted through on-the-fly training, with as few as one negative example, to perform TAC on the client side, one document at a time. Knowledge thus learned by the local model is used to improve the global model on the server side. The global model can be utilized to automatically and intelligently extract table information from a large number of documents with significantly improved accuracy, requiring minimal human intervention even on complex tables.

  • Patent number: 12072846
    Abstract: An interface server (e.g., Web Application Open Platform Interface (WOPI) server) is communicatively connected to an information management (IM) server and to an online application server which acts as a client of the interface server. When a user wishes to open, create, or edit a document in an online application hosted by the online application server, the interface server is called, instead of the IM server which manages the document at the backend of an enterprise computing network. The interface server is configured for obtaining a working copy of the document from the IM server and providing the working copy to the client. The client provides the working copy to the online application for display on the user device. When the work is done, the working copy is sync'd back through the interface server to the IM server as a new draft and deleted by the interface server.

  • Patent number: 12069097
    Abstract: A managed container may have a managed cache storing content managed by or through an application gateway server computer. The managed container may receive a request for content from an application running in a secure shell provided by the managed container on a client device. The managed container may determine whether the client device is within a specified geographical location. If not, the managed container may deny or restrict the application access to the requested content. The access denial or restriction may continue until a connection is made to the application gateway server computer or until the client device has returned to within the specified geographical location. If the client device is within the specified geographical location, the managed container may provide or restore access to requested content. Embodiments of the managed container can therefore perform geofencing by disabling or limiting access to content based on predetermined secure/insecure designations.

  • Patent number: 12039284
    Abstract: A summarizer can be invoked by a user to summarize content. Once started, the summarizer can examine the content, determine a main body of the content, extract texts from the main body, concatenate the texts into a text block, and make a call to an artificial intelligence (AI) platform. The call can contain the text block and specify a user-configurable summarization range for summarizing the text block. The AI platform is operable to generate a sentiment of the text block and a summary of the text block in the summarization range and return them to the summarizer. The summarizer, in turn, can instruct an application on the user device to generate a window or page for displaying the sentiment and the summary in the summarization range on the user device, in real time and in context of the content that the user is viewing, reading, or listening.

  • Patent number: 12038900
    Abstract: A content management system provides a mechanism for representing a particular piece of metadata in multiple languages. The multilingual metadata system provides a user with an ability to visualize a single translation in a language of the user's preference or based on the user's locale. The system receives an indication that at least one metadata field associated with a managed object contains multilingual metadata. A locale metadata table and a new metadata table for the managed object are created using information from an original metadata table for the managed object. Two or more metadata field values representing at least two languages are received by the system. The metadata fields are tagged with locale information and stored in the locale metadata table in association with the at least one metadata field in the new metadata table.

  • Patent number: 12020087
    Abstract: Systems and methods for content management wherein a client can submit requests to a first API which the forwards the requests to either an IMDB or a gateway to a distributed cluster-computing framework. Requests to the IMDB are serviced and responses from the IMDB are returned to the client. Requests that are forwarded to the gateway are first modified for the distributed cluster-computing framework, and are then parsed by the gateway and used to instantiate processors that generate corresponding requests to the distributed cluster-computing framework. Responsive data from the distributed cluster-computing framework is used to generate responses to the client requests that are forwarded to the first API which modifies them to appear as if they were generated by the IMDB. These modified responses are returned by the first API to the client.

  • Patent number: 12015744
    Abstract: Embodiments provide systems and methods for securely transferring large objects. A computer-implemented method, for example, includes determining whether digital content captured by a content capture device currently qualifies as a large file for transmission, based on a size attribute and a current transmission parameter associated with currently transmitting objects from a content capture system to an enterprise content management system. If the digital content qualifies as a large file, the digital content is encrypted and transmitted to a decentralized storage system for storage, and a content identifier that identifies the encrypted digital content stored in the decentralized storage system is transmitted to the enterprise content management system. Otherwise, the digital content is transmitted from the content capture system to the enterprise content management system.
