Patent number: 9866510Abstract: A server system can provide coordinated event-based notifications to a target user across multiple notification channels. The selection of channels for a particular notification can be based on the type of event underlying the notification, user preferences related to delivery of notifications, and the like. The sending of notifications in different channels can be coordinated so that notifications in different channels are sent at different times, and sending of any given notification can be made to depend on whether the notification (or the underlying event) has already been acted on, as well as on user preferences related to delivery of notification. Some notifications can be sent without delay and/or unconditionally.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2016Date of Patent: January 9, 2018Assignee: DROPBOX, INC.Inventors: Daniel Lowe Wheeler, Tina Wen, Aseem Sood

Patent number: 9419436Abstract: Digital power is regulated by transmitting digital power via a transmission line pair to at least one receiver circuit in a digital power receiving system. The digital power is converted into analog power in the receiver circuit. The analog power is transmitted to at least one power conditioning circuit, and output power is transmitted from the power conditioning circuit. At least one voltage in the digital power receiver system is monitored; and, in response to that monitoring, the output power from the power conditioning circuit is regulated to improve at least one of safety, efficiency, resiliency, control, and routing of power.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2015Date of Patent: August 16, 2016Assignee: VoltServer, Inc.Inventors: Stephen Spencer Eaves, Harry Daniel Lowe

Patent number: 9300492Abstract: Event notifications can be provided to a user across multiple client devices or platforms. If a user takes action on one device, notifications on all devices can be updated to reflect the action. For example, notifications can be indexed by topic and time sequence (or other sequence), and multiple notifications related to the same topic can be consolidated at a server or the client so that current information can be presented to the user.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2013Date of Patent: March 29, 2016Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Daniel Lowe Wheeler, Pierpaolo Baccichet, Maxime Larabie-Bélanger, Ryan J.
