Patent number: 11687516Abstract: Using an action registry to edit data across users and devices is described. In one or more implementations, a user editing data in an application requests to share the data with another user or another device for further editing. Responsive simply to the request or based on an exchange of content transfer information, the data is communicated to the selected user or device. Using information maintained by an action registry, a list of applications capable of editing the data is presented to the selected user or via the selected device. Upon selection of an application from the list, the selected application is launched. Once changes are made to the data by the selected user or device, those changes can be saved and the changed data automatically returned to the original user and/or device. The changed data can then be automatically presented to the original user or on the original device.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2021Date of Patent: June 27, 2023Assignee: Adobe Inc.Inventors: Oliver I. Goldman, Eric P. Snowden, Eric A. George, Abraham M. Muchnick, Julian R. Wixson

Publication number: 20170336924Abstract: Using an action registry to match applications for editing data is described. In one or more implementations, a user editing data in an application requests to be presented other applications that are also capable of editing the type of data. Based on this, a query is generated that requests the other applications from an action registry. The action registry maintains information describing the types of data different applications are capable of editing. With the maintained information, the action registry can determine which applications registered therewith are capable of performing actions on the type of data. At least some of these applications are included in a query answer from the action registry. The answer is usable to present the user a list of applications that are capable of also editing the type of data being edited in the application and are selectable from the list to perform further editing.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2016Publication date: November 23, 2017Applicant: Adobe Systems IncorporatedInventors: Abraham M.

Patent number: 7555451Abstract: A method and system for automatically estimating budget items based on past transactions and generating a cash flow forecast for one or more accounts. A budget item is determined for each of a plurality of categories of transactions. A frequency and amount of each budget item is determined as a function of an actual transaction count, a date span of actual transactions, and a sum of actual transaction amounts—all of the transactions occurring in the past. For each budget item, a cash flow transaction is determined as a function of a posting date criterion and a selected forecast period. A running balance of the cash flow transactions is determined and displayed. Through the display, a user is enabled to modify individual cash flow transactions to generate a new cash flow forecast, or generate an alternate cash flow forecast that can be compared to the original cash flow forecast.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2001Date of Patent: June 30, 2009Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Robert D.
