Abstract: A system receives an indication of a content feed of hierarchical content over a network. The content feed is hosted by a content provider. The system dynamically instantiates a content connection application that incorporates the content feed using a pre-defined declarative data structure engine. The system provides a user interface widget for the content connection application to allow user interaction with the hierarchical content of the first content feed.

Abstract: Systems and methods of establishing a secure connection between a proxy server and a base station device are disclosed. An example of a method includes providing a proxy server with a session token for a mobile device from a cloud service. The method also includes providing a session code directly to the mobile device from the cloud service based on the session token. The method also includes providing access by the proxy server to the base station device if the proxy server provides the session code to the cloud service.

Abstract: An application service includes a device interface manager, an acquisition manager, and a job manager. The device interface is configured to receive, from a device, a print instruction defining a context. The acquisition manager is configured to use the context to acquire context compatible content. The job manager is configured to communicate a reference to a print service for accessing cached context compatible print data for the print instruction if the context compatible print data is available in a cache, and to otherwise communicate to the print service, context compatible print data for context compatible content acquired by the acquisition manager.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a builder, a template engine, and an assembler. The template engine is operable to identify a reference template associated with application selection. The assembler is configured to assemble a request from the identified reference template and state data indicated by the reference template. The builder is configured to process a user interface description retrieved using the request to cause the display of a user interface having one or more objects each associated with an application available from a network service, the applications having been selected according to the state data.

Abstract: An apparatus includes an interface builder, template engine, and an assembler. The template engine is operable to identify a reference template associated with an object selected from a first user interface. The assembler is operable to assemble a request from the identified reference template and state data corresponding to the reference template. The builder is operable to process a user interface description retrieved using the request to cause the display of a second user interface.

Abstract: A scan request is received. In response, a command is sent to an image scanner to scan media. A scanned image of the media is received from the image scanner according to the command.
