Patent number: 9571595Abstract: To employ presence-based history information in conjunction with a notebook application, presence information for one or more users associated with a notebook application is determined from a variety of presence services. One or more interactions of the users are tracked in conjunction with a location within the notebook to record history information associated with the one or more users. The history information may be presented to the users through a user interface in conjunction with a location within the notebook application or through a separate user interface. The presented history information may include the recorded history information and statistical information based on the recorded history information. The users may interact with the user interface to employ the presented presence-based history information in conjunction with contents of the notebook application. For example, replay of user interactions in conjunction with a location within the notebook application may be enabled.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2013Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Nicole Steinbok, Daniel Escapa, David Tse, Thomas Wionzek, Olya Veselova, David Rasmussen

Patent number: 9438687Abstract: To employ presence information in conjunction with a notebook application, presence information is determined for one or more users associated with a notebook application. The presence information may be obtained from a variety of sources, such as a communication application, a social or professional network, and a presence module of the notebook application. Once determined, the presence information is presented to the users through a user interface in conjunction with a location within the notebook application or through a separate user interface. The notebook application may further track the presence information for the users interacting with the notebook application. The users may then be enabled to interact with the user interface to use the presented presence information in conjunction with content maintained by the notebook application.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2013Date of Patent: September 6, 2016Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Nicole Steinbok, Daniel Escapa, David Tse, Thomas Wionzek, Olya Veselova, David Rasmussen

Patent number: 8150919Abstract: Many different users may access, revise and update the same shared object simultaneously through several different transports. Clients may communicate asynchronously by accessing the shared object through a physical server. Clients may also communicate synchronously by accessing the shared object through a peer-to-peer network. A manifest file associated with the shared object identifies the locations where other versions and instances of the shared object are stored. The shared object and the associated manifest file allow a client to transition seamlessly between local access, synchronous and asynchronous communication such that the user is not aware that the mode of communication has changed. A user may change location and any available data sharing transports are automatically identified. Thus, the user may access a shared object and collaborate with other authorized users through different mechanisms.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2011Date of Patent: April 3, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Simon P. Clarke, David Rasmussen, Igor Kofman
