Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for generating a message. During operation, the system receives user interaction event data. The user interaction event data describes explicit or implicit interactions of a user with a web application and/or mobile application. Next, the system modifies a graph describing the user's current context associated with the user based on an analysis of the user interaction event data, as interpreted by the system learning from previous processing of user interaction event data. The context graph includes information about the user's state, behavior, and interests, and some or all portions of the context graph may be shared between users. The system determines a set of rules associated with a group of users that includes the user, and then applies the determined set of rules to any context graph associated with the user to generate the message.

Abstract: Display data in a data graphical user interface (GUI) on a display device and display, by a processor, a control GUI on the display device representing the data. The control GUI includes a range defining visual element, corresponding to a data value, that is moveable via input received by the control GUI and defines two ranges of the data. The processor displays indicia associated with the range defining visual element indicating the corresponding data value. The processor receives input from the control GUI indicating the range defining visual element has been moved. In response, the processor visually emphasizes data in the data GUI having data values in a selected one of the defined data range.

Abstract: A user terminal apparatus includes an input receiver, an intersecting-image information obtaining unit and a divider. The input receiver receives input information relating to image-drawing and image-erasing. The intersecting-image information obtaining unit obtains image-drawing input information intersecting image-erasing input information as intersecting-image information when the input receiver receives image-erasing input information. The divider divides the intersecting-image information to erase a portion of the intersecting-image information contained in an erasing area computed from the image-erasing input information when the input information is image-erasing input information.

Abstract: A control system, method and computer program product cooperate to assist control for an autonomous robot. The system includes a communications interface that exchanges information with the autonomous robot (22). A user interface displays a scene of location in which the autonomous robot (22) is positioned, and also receives an indication of a user selection of a user selected area within the scene. The communications interface transmits an indication of said user selected area to the autonomous robot (22) for further processing of the area by said autonomous robot (22).

Abstract: A method for optimizing resource prefetch criteria may include identifying a prefetch criteria on a first resource. The prefetch criteria may be associated with a likelihood that a second resource linked from the first resource may be requested. The prefetch criteria may be modified to a modified prefetch criteria different from the prefetch criteria. A modified likelihood that the second resource may be requested may be tracked based on the modified prefetch criteria. The prefetch criteria may be replaced with the modified prefetch criteria when the modified result is greater than the result.

Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to using gestures to supplant or augment use of a standard input device coupled to a system. It also relates to controlling a display using gestures. It further relates to controlling a system using more than one input device. In particular, it relates to detecting a standard input device that causes on-screen actions on a display in response to control manipulations performed using the standard input device. Further, a library of analogous gestures is identified, which includes gestures that are analogous to the control manipulations and also cause the on-screen actions responsive to the control manipulations. Thus, when a gesture from the library of analogous gestures is detected, a signal is generated that mimics a standard signal from the standard input device and causes at least one on-screen action.

Abstract: Entity profile information is presented to a user of a computing device. In one embodiment, a method includes: receiving a communication associated with a first entity; in response to receiving the communication, creating or updating, by at least one processor, a first entity profile, wherein the first entity profile is for display to the user on the computing device; and storing a plurality of entity profiles for entities, the entity profiles including the first entity profile.

Abstract: A method includes receiving an input string from a virtual keyboard, generating at least one string based on the input string, where the input string is not a substring of the generated string, responsive to a determination that the generated string was previously generated based on the input string, selecting a candidate character associated with the input string and with the generated string, and displaying the generated string at a location on the virtual keyboard that is associated with the selected candidate character.

Abstract: Local timeline editing for online content editing is disclosed. Various systems and methods described herein provide for online content editing, wherein user-created content is created or modified at an online content editor server in accordance with a timeline (associated with the user-created content) that is modified at a remote content editor client and subsequently received by the online content editor server. In a specific implementation, the creation and modification operations performed on the user-created content are performed at the online content editor server in accordance with the timeline received from the remote content editor client. The timeline can comprise information defining content within the user-created content, and define a temporal property of the content within the user-created content. The remote content editor client can be a thin client instance utilizing limited resources during operation and requiring very limited network bandwidth when transferred to the client.

Abstract: A system is described for creating a customized modification free extension of a software application. The software application can be an application configured to be executed in a runtime framework on a web browser. When the web browser launches the custom application, the base application can be identified and retrieved. Once retrieved, the web browser can merge the custom application and the base application and execute the resulting merged application.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed to implementing localized jump lists and to generating a locale-specific jump list. In one scenario, a computer system sends a synchronization request to receive a current contact list that includes a user's contacts. The computer system receives both a synchronized contact list and a locale-specific jump list, which includes jump header sort keys that indicate the relative sorting position of each jump header. The computer system receives a user input indicating that the user has selected a specified jump header and intends to jump to a specified point in the contact list. The computer system then jumps to the user-specified point in the contact list using the jump header sort key that corresponds to the selected jump header in the locale-specific jump list and displays the contact list to the user at the selected jump header that was jumped to using the jump header sort key.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus, a display control system, a display control method, and a display control program stored on a recording medium, each of which determines one or more display components to be displayed together with an application user interface, using display size information, priority order information, and display condition information that are previously stored for each one of the display components.

Abstract: Methods are described for maximizing the size of a video displayed in a display area of a video player. The maximum height of the video is determined using its aspect ratio and the dimensions of the display area in the video player. The control panel is removed from the display in the video player if this allows the video to be shown at its maximum height while preserving the video's resolution. The control panel is displayed in the video player if the video can be shown at its maximum height without removing the control panel from the display.
