  • Publication number: 20240069697
    Abstract: A system and method for loading a user interface (UI) component of a UI screen on an as needed basis is conducted by examining a list of UI components included in the UI screen to identify a UI component having an associated replacement component, the replacement component imitating an appearance of the UI component but offering fewer functionalities than the UI component. The replacement component is then loaded in place of the UI component, before user interactions with the UI screen are examined to determine when the UI component is likely to be used. Responsive to determining that UI component is likely to be used in the near future, the replacement component is replaced with the UI component in the UI screen.

  • Patent number: 11521507
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to a method and system for securely conducting a digital examination. The present disclosure uploads the question papers, OMR bubble sheet and question paper's color information specific to an examination to a server wherein it is encrypted, zipped into a bundle wherein a unique key is generated. The encrypted bundle is downloaded, decrypted and unzipped on an electronic device using the user provided key wherein the invigilator adds the required details and encrypt again. The encrypted bundle is distributed to the candidate device through the paper distribution adhoc protocol. The candidate downloads, unzip and decrypts the encrypted bundle on the candidate device and provides the response to the question paper. The candidate's responses are evaluated, and result is declared locally if the candidate device is configured with a master key or uploaded to the server for further processing.

  • Patent number: 11323547
    Abstract: Conventionally, application launchers have limited their functionality to provide shortcut ways for searching/executing pre-configured applications and fail to provide a uniform user experience and usability across computing systems and applications installed therein. Currently, applications in such computing systems are manual controlled, which is time consuming and thus lack in security during accessing content. Present disclosure provides a cloud driven application launcher (CDAL) that is installed in client device. Once the computing device is configured with latest configurations, the client device serves as a master device wherein the master device creates, in an offline mode, an ad hoc network wherein other client devices connect to master device for upgrading version of applications comprised in client devices to a corresponding version of applications in master device.

  • Patent number: 10997264
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for delivery of contextual interest from interaction information are described that process user interactions with digital content to generate user interest scores for various topics. A contextual user interest system uses user interaction data to identify and contextualize content, and assigns propensity scores to the contextualized content. By dynamically contextualizing pages of content, the contextual user interest system may adapt to changes in the content and provide more accurate and robust information over time, which is not possible using conventional techniques. The contextualized pages of content are used to assign user interest scores across a number of topics to users who have visited the pages of content, and the user interest scores are normalized in a manner that allows a user's degree of interest in a topic to be compared to that of another user.
