Abstract: One embodiment provides for a wearable electronic device comprising a display device, a memory device, and one or more processors to execute instructions stored in the memory device. The instructions cause the one or more processors to receive an interaction to transition an application to a front-most state on the wearable electronic device, receive a request to initiate an activity via the application in the front-most state, detect that the wearable electronic device has transitioned to a low power mode, and enable enhanced functionality for the application in the front-most state during the low power mode while the application is in the front-most stat. Enabling enhanced functionality for the application in the front-most state includes, for example, increasing an execution priority of the application while the application is in the front most state.

Abstract: A wearable electronic device includes an application processor to execute applications on the device. A user interface for the application can be displayed on a display of the wearable device. Some applications executed on the wearable device are associated with an activity session, such as, for example, a turn-by-turn navigation session, an exercise session, a media playback session. For the duration of this session, such applications can be flagged for persistent display on the wearable device and will be displayed upon activation of the wearable device in place of the default application.

Abstract: One embodiment provides for a method of determining application display persistence on a wearable electronic device, the method comprising receiving an application programming interface (API) call from an application to perform an action on the wearable electronic device; beginning a session on the wearable electronic device in response to determining that the API call is associated with the beginning of a session; determining, based on the application, a persistence level to apply to the application; flagging the application associated with the session as persistent; and displaying a persistent application at a next activation of the wearable electronic device in place of a default application associated with the wearable electronic device.

Abstract: The present invention generally relates to a method and system for gathering, arranging and providing information, such as investment information, to computer users over a communications network such as the Internet. In one embodiment, the present invention includes the steps of gathering a number of information item about a particular company or industry, summarizing those information items, assigning a reliability indicator to certain information items, and storing the items in a database. When a subscriber requests information concerning a particular company, the pertinent information items are retrieved and presented to the subscriber as an electronic page that includes a graphical representation of the company's stock price and trading volume for a selected time period. Additionally, when the subscriber indicates a data point, a summary of certain information items, including the reliability indicator for each item, associated with the data point appear for the subscriber's review.
