  • Patent number: 12052214
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content communicating, displaying, generating, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed systems and methods determine and display message content within a portion of a message inbox in a manner that is specific to the type message content. According to some embodiments, when a message is received in a message inbox of a user, the message content can be opened for display within a dedicated portion of the inbox, thereby enabling improved message content retrieval, access and navigation within a message platform or message application.

  • Publication number: 20240020266
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide systems and methods for identifying collaborators on migrated content and determining which, if any, of those collaborators should be allowed access to the content on the target system of that migration. According to one embodiment, a method for migrating content and a plurality of collaborators on the content from a source system to a target system can comprise initiating, by a migration control system, migration of the content from the source system to the target system and analyzing, by the migration control system, while the migration is being conducted, the content being migrated from the source system to the target system. One or more policies can be applied to the content and the plurality of collaborators on the content being migrated from the source system to the target system by the migration control system while the migration is being conducted.

  • Publication number: 20230191427
    Abstract: A microfluidic sorting device and method employing dielectrophoresis (DEP) induced field flow separations are described herein. The microfluidic sorting device has a microchannel and an array of electrodes disposed along the microchannel. The electrodes may be oriented at an angle relative to the microchannel. Non-mammalian samples such as plant samples flow in the microchannel and through the electrode array. Current is passed through the electrodes causing a DEP force to be exerted on the samples. This force may generate a torque that causes one type of sample to rotate and slide along the electrodes, thus separating the samples by type.

  • Publication number: 20230024602
    Abstract: Embodiments provide for identifying and resolving conflicts in access permissions migrated data by receiving a set of mappings including path mappings of a hierarchy of data objects on the source system to locations on the target system for migrated data objects. Based on the received set of mappings, permissions controlling access to data objects of the hierarchy of data objects on the source system can be translated to permissions controlling access to the migrated data objects on the target system for one or more user accounts on the target system. One or more conflicts can be detected between permissions on the source system and permissions on the target system. A conflict resolution strategy can be selected from a plurality of conflict resolution strategies and the selected conflict resolution strategy can be applied to the permissions controlling access to the migrated data objects on the target system.

  • Patent number: 10560408
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions between servers in a messaging system supported by or configured with content providing servers or platforms. The disclosed systems interact to filter data across platforms, which data can be used to improve the contextual quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The disclosed computer systems and methods enable the communication of contextually relevant Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) content to a user's inbox. Such messages are native to a communication platform, application or service associated with the user's inbox. Such messages can be selected for delivery to a user based on the user's profile data, behavioral information, a user's geographic location, demographic information, a time period, and the like.

  • Patent number: 8719600
    Abstract: The operating voltage of an integrated circuit (e.g., a processor) is changed in response to one or more conditions (e.g., a laptop computer is connected to an AC power source). Both the operating frequency and the operating voltage of the integrated circuit are changed. The voltage regulator providing the operating voltage to the integrated circuit is caused to transition between voltage levels using one or more intermediate steps. The integrated circuit continues to operate in the normal manner both at the new voltage and throughout the voltage transition.
