  • Patent number: 9609087
    Abstract: A method of sending and receiving configurable buckets of communication is disclosed. A request to send a communication from an application executing on a client to an application executing on a server is received. The communication has a first priority. A request to send an additional communication from the application executing on the client to the application executing on the server is received. The additional communication has a second priority. The communication is placed into a bucket of communications based on the communication having the first priority. A determination is made to send the bucket of communications to the application executing on the server. The additional communication is placed into the bucket of communications based on a determination that the bucket of communications is not full. The bucket of communications is sent to the application executing on the server.

  • Publication number: 20160166904
    Abstract: A training device assists soccer players to deflect a soccer ball by bouncing off a vertical wall. The vertical wall includes an anchor wall acting as a brace that extends at an angle where stakes pass through which allows the device to be anchored to ground. The device is made without moving parts as a stand-alone unit that is made by injection molding as a one-piece homogeneous construction. The device can be sold by itself or as a kit having multiple devices including a set of stakes.

  • Patent number: 9223599
    Abstract: A method of executing a cross-platform application on a system is disclosed. An instruction pertaining to an execution of the cross-platform application on the system is received. Based on a determination that the instruction pertains to a rendering of an element of a user interface of the cross-platform application on the system, the instruction is sent across a bridge to an engine executing in the native layer to process the instruction at the native layer. Alternatively, based on a determination that the instruction does not pertain to a rendering of the element of the user interface of the cross-platform application on the system, the instruction is sent to an engine executing in the cross-platform layer of the system to process the instruction at the cross-platform layer.
