Patent number: 9578075Abstract: A method for streaming software may include downloading blocks associated with a software title until an executable threshold is reached, initiating execution of the software title, and continuing to download blocks of the software title while the software title is executed. Another method for streaming software may include sending to a client data sufficient for the client to build a virtual directory structure for use in executing a software title, streaming a subset of blocks associated with the software title to the client, and streaming additional blocks associated with the software title to the client on demand. A system for streaming software may include a server computer and a client computer. The server computer may include a program database and a streaming engine. In operation the streaming engine may stream an executable streaming application from the program database to the client.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2015Date of Patent: February 21, 2017Assignee: Numecent Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Vinson, Steig Westerberg, Jeffrey DeVries

Patent number: 7096253Abstract: A file system driver program executes on a local computer. One or more agent procedures is configured to execute on the local computer to access file resources on behalf of a target process. A security process regulates the access of file resources by the agent procedures. The regulation of the agent procedure by the security procedure is based on a property that is unique to the target process.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2002Date of Patent: August 22, 2006Assignee: Stream Theory, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Vinson, Steig Westerberg, Jeffrey DeVries
