Abstract: Various technologies and techniques improve the updating of client content in a client/server arrangement. A client notification engine of a user interface subscribes to receive notifications from a central server side notification engine. The client notification engine polls the server side notification engine at a specified interval. The server side notification engine receives and aggregates notifications about and/or from one or more sources and aggregates them into a collection of relevant notifications. These notifications are sent to the client where the different subscriptions originated and are then used by the user interface in the client to update part of the content being displayed as appropriate.

Abstract: Providing a rich user experience on a network client in which personal information management (PIM) data from a plurality of data sources is aggregated and displayed to the user. An aggregation system connects to data sources and maps attributes of PIM data in the data sources to a common object model. An object of aggregated PIM data is created according to the mapped attributes. The aggregation system generates user interface data representing the created object and sends the user interface data to the network client for rendering.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products, for using a web browser to view stored data over the World Wide Web, where the data is stored in a format normally incompatible with such viewing. A client computer processes a view descriptor and a general view class to generate a specific view class, or template, and a query. The specific view class is used as a template to display data the client receives from a data server after submitting the generated query to the data server. The result of using a specific view class as a template for the data is that the data is output in Hypertext Markup Language, so as to be easily displayable on a web browser. View classes and view descriptors may be developed using existing Web development tools such as Extensible Style Language and Extensible Markup Language.
