  • Patent number: 11520974
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for sharing user markings between digital documents and corresponding physically printed documents. The sharing is facilitated using an Augmented Reality (AR) device, such as a smartphone or a tablet. The device streams images of a page of a book on a display. The device accesses a corresponding digital document that is a digital version of content printed on the book. In an example, the digital document has a digital user marking, e.g., a comment associated with a paragraph of the digital document, wherein a corresponding paragraph of the physical book lacks any such comment. When the device streams the images of the page of the book on the display, the device appends the digital comment on the paragraph of the page of the book within the image stream. Thus, the user can view the digital comment in the AR environment, while reading the physical book.

  • Patent number: 11514239
    Abstract: System and method for generating RCS message templates using a graphical user interface (GUI) with concurrent representative display. Templates are generated based on inputs via an input region of the GUI. Inputs can include a template name, a template type, and message content, which can include text, images, video, interactive buttons or icons, and so forth. Inputs can be static or parameterized. A representative message based on the template is concurrently displayed in a display region of the GUI. Based on the inputs, the system generates RCS message templates, such as by compiling JSON code corresponding to the user inputs and the representative display. The templates can be used to generate and send finalized RCS messages, such as text messages, rich cards, and so forth, by invoking a generated template and providing data for any parameterized fields in the template.

  • Patent number: 11467971
    Abstract: Systems and methods for precomputing data and storing cache objects corresponding to the precomputed data are described. A system creates a new cache object when a user interacts with the system. The system precomputes formulas in the newly created cache object by replacing the formulas with corresponding calculated values. The system precomputes the formulas in the background (i.e., the user is not presented with the precomputed values while the user is manipulating the data). The system may persistently store a precomputed version cache object in a dedicated version cache storage for later use. If updates are performed to the structure and/or values of a version represented in a precomputed version cache object, effected parts of the version cache object are invalidated by replacing calculated values with the underlying formulas.

  • Patent number: 11361046
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for identifying broken network connections. In one aspect, a system includes front-end server(s) that receive data specifying, for multiple different user interactions with one or more application links that link to a given application, presentation durations specifying how long application content linked to by the application link was presented following the multiple different user interactions with the application link(s). Back-end server(s) that communicate with the front end server(s) can classify each application link as broken or working based on application of a machine learning model to the presentation durations for the application link. The machine learning model can be generated using labeled training data. The back-end server(s) can generate and output an alert identifying an application link as a broken link based on the application link being classified as broken by the machine learning model.

  • Patent number: 11308167
    Abstract: A device may request an electronic document having a first size that fails to satisfy a memory constraint associated with a document viewer application executing on the device. The device may receive, from a document rendering platform, information related to a current segment of the electronic document and a set of additional segments of the electronic document, which may collectively have a second size that satisfies the memory constraint associated with the document viewer application. The device may render a first set of pages in the current segment of the electronic document using the document viewer application and store the set of additional segments in a cache associated with the document viewer application. The device may render a second set of pages contained in the cached set of additional segments based on a user navigating to a boundary of the current segment using the document viewer application.
