  • Patent number: 9753642
    Abstract: A method includes generating a display associated with a web-based application interface. The display includes a plurality of features. The method also includes associating each of the plurality of features with at least one first key selection. A user can navigate to one of the features using the at least one first key selection associated with the feature. The method further includes establishing at least one second key selection. The user can navigate within one of the features using the at least one second key selection. In addition, the method includes communicating the display for presentation to the user.

  • Patent number: 9037705
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product are disclosed for routing performance data to compute nodes. According to one aspect of the present disclosure each of a plurality of compute nodes are assigned a topic. Each topic may be associated with a set of calculations. Labeled performance metrics for an application are received. Each performance metric is labeled with a context under which the performance metric was collected. A topic is associated with each of the performance metrics based on the labeled context. Each respective node listens for a topic assigned to it in order to access the performance metrics associated with the assigned topic. Each respective node analyzes the performance metrics associated with the topic assigned to it.

  • Patent number: 8904498
    Abstract: Methods for automating the entry of password information and other user credentials into native and web-based computing applications are described. In some embodiments, an end user identity and a corresponding authentication level may be determined during an unlock event or during operation of a computing device. The end user identity may be determined by capturing biometric characteristics of an end user of the computing device (e.g., by performing facial recognition and/or voice recognition). Upon the detection of an authentication request from an application running on the computing device, the end user identity and the corresponding authentication level may be used to acquire and provide user credentials for authenticating the end user to the application.
