Patent number: 11412306Abstract: iTV content is created and deployed using a server component adapted to allow content developers to create applications according to an authoring specification that describes a framework for same; a transport component configured to optimize and deliver the applications to one or more clients; and a client component adapted to render the applications through a television so as to permit user interaction therewith. The authoring specification provides for the presentation of content through one or more templates defined therein, allowing application definition and behavior to remain common across multiple client device types, middleware platforms, and/or iTV operating environments.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2015Date of Patent: August 9, 2022Assignee: Comcast Cable Communications Management, LLCInventors: John Carney, David de Andrade, Sithampara Babu Niranjan, David Brandyberry, Leon Franzen, Lena Chane, Matt Marenghi, Prakash Hedge, Alex Chung, Viva Chu, Greg Thomson, Ruth Dawson

Patent number: 9389851Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing consistency between software library repositories. The system can be used to ensure that a repository of compile-time libraries is consistent with a target run-time or execution environment. Each of a plurality of libraries in an execution environment can be associated with a location file or metadata including coordinates for the library and a relative path to a library artifact. The system can use the metadata to populate or synchronize a particular library repository, for example a software developer's compile-time library, with libraries or artifacts associated with the metadata, from the execution environment. The populated or synchronized repository can subsequently be used by a user of a software build automation tool at compile time.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2015Date of Patent: July 12, 2016Assignee: ORACLE INTERNATIONAL CORPORATIONInventors: Mark Nelson, Leon Franzen, Robert Patrick
