  • Patent number: 9292479
    Abstract: In one implementation, a computer-implemented method includes receiving a request to access an electronic document collection that integrates a plurality of electronic sub-documents that are each of one of a plurality of defined document types. The method also includes retrieving information that is associated with the document collection, wherein the retrieved information identifies a first sub-document of the plurality of sub-documents using a first non-address identifier, and identifying a first software application that is configured to provide access to the first sub-document. The method additionally includes initiating a first connection with a first server that causes execution of the identified first software application and that, using the first non-address identifier, provides access to the first sub-document.

  • Patent number: 8584105
    Abstract: Systems, servers, methods, and media for interfacing first compiled code of first code with second compiled code of second code are provided. The first compiled code includes a first compiled object that corresponds to an original object in the first code, and includes a first API wrapper that associates the first compiled object with the original object. The second compiled code includes a second compiled object that corresponds to a reference in the second code to the original object, and includes a second API wrapper that associates the second compiled object with the reference. When the second compiled object in the second compiled code is executed, the second compiled code calls the second API wrapper, the second API wrapper proxies the call to the first API wrapper, and the first API wrapper proxies the call to the first compiled object in the first compiled code.
