  • Patent number: 8843577
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for updating an object on a mobile device is provided. The computer-implemented method includes maintaining at a server a plurality of channels, the plurality of channels including at least a first representation of the object, generating a modification event when a change to the object is detected, responsive to the modification event, at least updating the representation of the object yielding a second representation of the object, and conveying, during a synchronization process, the second representation of the object to the mobile device.

  • Publication number: 20130060560
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for server-based spell check. One aspect of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods performed by a server. The methods include the actions of receiving a request to spell check text; dividing the text into multiple segments, each segment including no more than a predetermined number of terms; providing each segment to a spell checker programmed to spell check an input including no more than the predetermined number of terms; receiving, from the spell checker, one or more spelling correction suggestions, each spelling correction suggestion corresponding to a term in a segment, the term being designated as misspelled by the spell checker; and assembling the received one or more spelling correction suggestions into a response to the request to spell check the text.

  • Publication number: 20130061139
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for server-based spell check. One aspect of the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods performed by a user device. The methods include the actions of receiving user input text; identifying a candidate term for spelling correction from the received text, the candidate term including a term designated as a misspelled term by a local spell checker, the local spell checker executing on the user device; sending the candidate term to a remote spell checker, the remote spell checker executing on a server that is connected to the user device through a communications network; receiving, from the remote spell checker, a spelling correction suggestion for the candidate term; and providing the spelling correction suggestion for display on the user device.

  • Patent number: 8180839
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for receiving information at a first device is provided. The method includes storing a first data object on the first device in a first device-specific representation, receiving a batch of information in response to the first device transitioning from an off-line state to an online state, processing the modification event to recover the modification, updating the first data object based on the recovered modification, and transmitting an acknowledgement indicating that the modification event was successfully processed by the first device. The batch of information includes a modification event. The content of the batch was determined based at least on a state of data stored on the first device. The modification event was generated based on at least a modification made to a second data object stored at a second device in a second device-specific representation.
