Publication number: 20140225897Abstract: The present document describes a system and method of managing and viewing calendar data. Calendar data may include, for each of a plurality of calendar events, data items indicating at least a date of the event.

Patent number: 8712820Abstract: The embodiments discussed herein describe an application device and method for calendar sharing and scheduling over a communication network. When a meeting is to be scheduled between two or more participants, the organizing participant enters an identification of the participants and requests a time suggestion. In response to the request, information relating to the availability and/or preferences of each participant is gathered from one or more databases and processed centrally in a remote server to determine a block of time during which all the participants are commonly free. The block of time is pushed to a user interface for display. If the organizing user selects the block of time, a meeting request may be sent to the participants to confirm the meeting.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2010Date of Patent: April 29, 2014Assignee: Blackberry LimitedInventors: Marc Gingras, Fang Yang, Jacou Sarrazin
