  • Publication number: 20140075521
    Abstract: A method for sharing login status between an application platform and an application, both running on a client device, is performed at a computer. In response to a login request from the client device, the computer analyzes the login request to determine whether the login request is associated with the application platform or the application. If the login request is with the application platform, the computer then establishes a first connection with an application platform server and forwards the login request to the application platform server. Upon receiving a login key from the application platform server, the computer returns the login key to the client device. If not, the computer establishes a second connection with an application server and forwards the login request to the application server. Upon receiving a login key from the application server, the computer then returns the login key to the client device.

  • Publication number: 20140074918
    Abstract: The current invention discloses methods and devices that provide controlled randomization of the progression of an application program on one or more terminals connected to a server. The server may feed a seed random number to the terminals and the seed random number may be used by a platform-independent random number generator to produce random numbers. The random numbers may be fed to platform-dependent random processing commands to generate display contents, which may be displayed by the terminals. With such implementations, the same program running at different times may have different processes and show different display contents. The current invention reduces predictability and improves randomness and excitability of the program.
