Patent number: 8433822Abstract: Wireless data message optimization for messages sent between a wireless device and a server that provides a service that the wireless device is authorized to access is provided using an application gateway that serves as a proxy between the wireless device and the server. The application gateway maps optimized service request messages generated by the wireless device to a service request message format expected by the server, and maps response messages generated by the server to an optimized response message format expected by the wireless device. The optimized message format is flattened by removing unnecessary message structure, eliminates unnecessary message fields, and uses default and enumeration encoding to reduce optimized message size.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2005Date of Patent: April 30, 2013Assignee: Research In Motion LimitedInventors: Viera Bibr, Vladimir Blagojevic, Laura Doktorova, Brindusa L.

Patent number: 8402432Abstract: A system and method of creating and communicating with wireless component applications is provided. Mobile communication devices communicate with a web service via a wireless network, the Internet, and optionally a message-map service. Each wireless component application is executed by a component framework on one of the mobile communication devices, and comprises data components, presentation components, message components, and workflow components. The component framework executes the component application in an application container which provides access to framework services which include a communication service, a screen service, a persistence service, an access service, a provisioning service, and a utility service. Messages can be sent from the component application to the message-map service, which converts each of the messages to a format required by the web service using an application message-map, and then sends the message to the web service.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2008Date of Patent: March 19, 2013Assignee: Research In Motion LimitedInventors: Michael Shenfield, Viera Bibr, Brindusa L. Fritsch, Bryan Goring, Robert Kline, Kamen Vitanov

Patent number: 8082414Abstract: Methods and systems for controlling centralized memory management in wireless terminal devices. Memory management scripts associated with a wireless application are stored in a registry accessible through a data network for on-demand download and execution. A memory management kernel in each terminal device monitors a memory utilization of the terminal device. Based on the memory utilization, the memory management kernel interacts with an application gateway hosting the terminal device to download and execute one or more of the memory management scripts.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2008Date of Patent: December 20, 2011Assignee: Motorola Mobility, Inc.Inventors: Kamen B.

Publication number: 20110151848Abstract: System and method for data simplification in wireless communications are enabled by an application developer toolkit used to convert complex service messages to a simplified data structure for storing information associated with a remote service that utilizes complex data structures for conveying the information to devices that access the remote service. The application developer toolkit also outputs maps for converting the complex service messages to simplified wireless messages in a format of the simplified data structure, and maps simplified wireless messages to complex service messages. A proxy located in a communications path between the wireless device and the remote service uses the maps to convert complex service messages to simplified service messages, and vice versa.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2010Publication date: June 23, 2011Applicant: Research in Motion LimtedInventors: David Debruin, Viera Bibr, Brindusa L.
