Patent number: 10474998Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, a system and method provides a messaging service in a multitenant application server environment. Deployable resources are usable within the multitenant application server environment and groupings of resources are defined by resource group templates within a domain. One or more partitions are provided, with each partition providing an administrative and runtime subdivision of the domain that can be associated with a tenant. Java message service (JMS) resources are defined within a resource group template or a resource group, and instantiated within a partition from the one or more partitions to enable messaging for applications deployed within the partition and between the one or more partition.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2015Date of Patent: November 12, 2019Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Dongbo Xiao, Thomas Barnes, Lily He, Amy Kang, Rich T.

Deployable resources are usable within the multitenant application server environment and groupings of resources are defined by resource group templates within a domain. One or more partitions are provided, with each partition providing an administrative and runtime subdivision of the domain that can be associated with a tenant. Java message service (JMS) resources are defined within a resource group template or a resource group, and instantiated within a partition to enable messaging for applications deployed within the partition and between partitions. Integrating JMS in a multitenant application server environment further includes a foreign JMS server feature which maps remotely hosted JMS connection factories and JMS destinations into a local partition's JNDI, so that bridges and applications in turn gain access to these resources by looking them up in this name-space.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2015Date of Patent: October 16, 2018Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Dongbo Xiao, Thomas Barnes, David Zhao, Jigang Wang, Lily He, Padmanabha Bhat

Patent number: 10038898Abstract: Method, device and computer program product for estimating quality of a video signal, wherein frames of the video signal are received at receiving means of the device, each frame comprising a plurality of blocks of pixels. A section of a first frame of the video signal, which is correctly received, is used to provide a concealed block for use in place of a block of a second frame of the video signal. A difference measure is determined indicative of a difference between at least some of the pixels surrounding the block in the second frame and the corresponding pixels surrounding the section in the first frame. The difference measure is used to estimate the quality of the second frame of the video signal.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2015Date of Patent: July 31, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Pontus Carlsson, Andrei Jefremov, Sergey Silkin, David Zhao

Patent number: 9762799Abstract: Method, device and computer program product for stabilizing a received video signal. A plurality of frames of the video signal is captured using a camera. The video signal is transmitted as an encoded bit stream. Displacement of the camera between successive frames is determined from a motion indication in the bit stream. The determined displacement is used to compensate for motion in the video signal between successive frames caused by the motion of the camera, to thereby stabilize the video signal.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2011Date of Patent: September 12, 2017Assignee: SkypeInventors: Pontus Carlsson, Andrei Jefremov, Sergey Sablin, David Zhao

Patent number: 9727445Abstract: A web application intended to be called by a cloud service is debugged locally in a developer's machine. A debugging session is configured to initiate execution of the web application in its intended cloud context by utilizing a reverse proxy mechanism to forward network traffic from a calling cloud service to the developer's machine. In a first embodiment, an integrated development environment (IDE) is able to establish a connection with the reverse proxy mechanism during the debugging session. In a second embodiment, a separate process is used to establish the connection with the reverse proxy mechanism where the separate process is outside of the IDE.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2013Date of Patent: August 8, 2017Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLC.Inventors: Iouri Simernitski, Doug Bunting, David Zhao, Chakkaradeep Chinnakonda Chandran
