Abstract: Example systems and methods of managing a user interface are described. In one implementation, a method displays a user interface for an application, the application has a plurality of fields is described. A user selection of a field of the plurality of fields is detected via a touch-sensitive screen. A user input indicating a new position of the selected field is received. The other fields affected by the new position are identified and repositioned based on the new position of the selected field. The plurality of fields has a set of data associated with them. A user activation of a field editing operation is detected. An editing command from the user is received via a touch-sensitive screen.

Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing UI push channels are disclosed. The UI push channels can be used to broadcast event notifications to multiple UIs whenever the information in an underlying data source is changed. In response to the event notifications, the UIs may update or refresh the displayed information so as to include the most current information in the data source. UI push channels are defined by associations between an application messaging channel (AMC) and the UI connection used to communicate with the client computing device and the application server. In particular, the UI push channels can be established by an AMC definition that defines a target data source, subscriber entities, and publisher entities. The listing of the publishers and the subscribers in the AMC definition infer the associations between the corresponding AMC and the UI connections.

Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for performing backup operation in In-memory database systems are described herein. The method includes receiving a request to create a backup of a data set from a main memory of the system. In response to the request, the data set is configured as read-only and a data structure having meta-data information identifying the blocks of data in the main memory that form the data set is invoked. A snapshot of the data structure is created and the data set is enabled for manipulation. Further, the method involves receiving a request to modify a block of data and copying the requested data block to a free memory block in the main memory. The data structure is updated by replacing the meta-data identifying the requested original data block with meta-data identifying the free memory block which holds a copy of the requested data block.

Abstract: A cache and method of caching for a database are provided, in which the cache and the database are in the same state. Responsive to a query for data, the method extracts search terms from the query and maps filter settings to an appropriate format. The method also (a) outputs data retrieved from a cache, if there is a cache hit and (b) builds cache and retrieves the data from the database, if there is a cache miss. If there are multiple users and/or instances, the cache may be updated for all users and/or instances by determining whether all changes are to be committed, in which case the changes are pushed to all users and/or instances.

Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention a computerized method includes receiving at a personal-mobile device a first communication, which includes information for requesting user verification for logging into an account of a user, via a computing device. The account is with a service provided by an application server. The method includes starting a personal-authentication application on the personal-mobile device in response to receiving the first communication, and receiving in the personal-authentication application a user verification for confirming logging into the account. The method includes logging into the account via the computing device based on receipt of the user verification. Embodiments of the present invention provide enhanced security for logging into an account that a user may have with a service by providing that a personal-mobile device, such as a mobile telephone, which is personal to a user, is configured as a security token for login to the account.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a holopresence conferencing system using off-the-shelf videoconferencing systems. The holopresence conferencing system uses one high-definition stereoscopic camera per remote participant and discards all but a center portion of the right image and a center portion of the left image generated by the camera. The system concatenates the center portion of the right and the left image into a composite image and transmits the composite image via an off-the-shelf videoconferencing system. At the viewing location, the composite image is divided in half, recovering the right center portion and the left center portion. The right center portion and left center portion may be placed on a background and stereoscopically projected in high-definition on a semi-circular life-size screen. Viewing participants may wear glasses that allow the viewer to see the remote participant in three-dimensions.

Abstract: According to some embodiments, a business service provider may define a stable user interface anchor entity associated with a business object data structure. A reference field may be associated with the stable user interface anchor, the reference field representing a path to a persistent node of the business object data structure. An end user adaptation to a user interface may then be applied in connection with the business object data structure, the adaptation referencing the stable user interface anchor entity.

Abstract: A business object model, which reflects data that is used during a given business transaction, is utilized to generate interfaces. This business object model facilitates commercial transactions by providing consistent interfaces that are suitable for use across industries, across businesses, and across different departments within a business during a business transaction. In some operations, software creates, updates, or otherwise processes information related to an opportunity business object.
