Patent number: 7656822Abstract: A resource discovery and description mechanism for decentralized device and service description and discovery in networking environments is described that generates advertisements in a uniform description format to describe resources on a network. The mechanism may translate resource descriptions from other resource description and discovery protocols to generate the advertisements. The advertisements may be used for cross-network discovery and access of the resources. An advertisement may include, but is not limited to, physical endpoints, virtual endpoints, user-extensible metadata, location information, and a universal unique identifier (UUID) for the associated resource. If a resource cannot provide a UUID, the mechanism generates a UUID for the resource. One embodiment may support proxy nodes for generating advertisements for resources that cannot participate directly in the resource discovery and description mechanism.Type: GrantFiled: October 27, 2004Date of Patent: February 2, 2010Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Mohamed M.

Patent number: 7486695Abstract: Method and apparatus for multiplexed data communication tunneling channels. Embodiments of the tunneling mechanism may provide tunnel sockets between networking environments that allow a node in one networking environment to interconnect with network resources in other networking environments. A tunnel socket is a proxy or bridge across a peer-to-peer network between different networking environments. Using the tunneling mechanism, descriptions of network resources in one format may be translated to advertisements in a uniform description format, which may then be published on the network. The published advertisements may be discovered by entities in other networking environments and translated into formats of the other networking environments for access by the entities. To the entities, the resources appear to be in their local networking environment.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 2004Date of Patent: February 3, 2009Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Mohamed M. AbdelAziz, Juan Carlos Soto

Patent number: 7464168Abstract: System and method for decentralized entity presence are described. Presence services may collaborate to form a presence service view on the network. A node providing an entity on the network may provide an entity advertisement to a presence service to advertise the entity's presence on the network. The presence information may be indexed locally by a presence service, and the indexes may be shared with one or more other presence services within the presence service view. A presence service may accept queries from nodes for a specific entity, and walk the query within the presence service view to locate the target entity. The query may then be forwarded to the node advertising the presence entity. The node providing the entity may respond directly to the querying node without going through the presence service. A presence contract may then be negotiated between the nodes without going through the presence service.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2004Date of Patent: December 9, 2008Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Mohamed M. Abdelaziz, Bernard A. Traversat, Juan Carlos Soto

Patent number: 7225228Abstract: A method and system allows any peer to efficiently distribute content to all other peers in a peer group using existing propagation mechanisms. According to the invention, binary contents are broadcast over existing propagation mechanisms such as propagation pipes using a generic capability that can be used by any application that wants to multicast binary contents. According to the invention, the binary contents are broken up into file blocks that are then sent over existing propagation mechanisms such as propagation pipes. According to the present invention, the receiving peers negotiate among themselves to make up any file blocks they may have missed from the original broadcast. When each peer has all the file blocks associated with a given parent file, they store the content.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2003Date of Patent: May 29, 2007Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Juan Carlos Soto, James Clark

Patent number: 6407759Abstract: A method and apparatus that allows the user to escape from unwanted Java modal dialog boxes displayed by an applet, even though the Java modal dialog box does not contain a user interface designed to cancel or remove the dialog box from the display. The described embodiment allows the user to use so-called “escape” keys to indicate that the Java modal dialog box should be removed and/or closed. In general, these escape keys have other purposes in addition to removing the Java modal dialog box. A first escape key is a “back” key. Although the back key is typically used within a web browser to return to a previously viewed web page, in dialog box mode, the effect of the back key is to remove the dialog box from the display (under certain circumstances, as discussed below). A second escape key in the described embodiment is the “goto” key.Type: GrantFiled: November 30, 1998Date of Patent: June 18, 2002Assignee: Sun Microsystems, Inc.Inventors: Rajesh Kanungo, Juan Carlos Soto, Jr.
