Abstract: A method and apparatus for introducing domain-specific data types with associated semantics in an RDF database system using an extensibility framework mechanism. The extensibility framework mechanism allows users to map serialized instance data for a particular user-defined data type to properties of a base data structure associated with the domain-specific data and to map instance data in base data structures to the data's serialized form. The RDF database system may return inferred properties of RDF data stored in domain-specific data types in response to a query on the data. Further, the RDF database system may infer relationships between resources in stored data.

Abstract: Metering systems and methods are disclosed. A metering system is part of a larger fluidics sub-system that includes a flexible reservoir for storing insulin and a cannula assembly for delivering the insulin into sub-cutaneous tissue. The metering system draws a small dose of fluid from the reservoir and then pushes it down the cannula line and into the patient. The fluid dose is small relative to the reservoir volume, such that many pump strokes are required to completely empty the reservoir.

Abstract: A system for securely mediating messages between a native application and a browser application on a computing device includes running the browser application and a browser process that controls access by the browser-based application to the native resource. The browser process may use a data file distributed with the native application to allow or deny communications between the browser-based application and the native application. When communications are allowed the browser-based application accesses the native resource via the native application. In one implementation, the browser process may initiate a native messaging host and send communication requests to the native messaging host. The data file may be downloaded with the native application or separately from the native application from a site that distributes the native application or a site controlled by the developer of the native application. The data file identifies browser-based applications allowed to communicate with the native application.

Abstract: A fire extinguisher assembly is disclosed, providing a connection from a standard fire extinguisher tank through to a housing with dispersion vents. A spray nozzle is secured within the housing for dispersing the fire retardant agent through the dispersion vents, and a connecting means is disclosed, positioned on the housing for securing the extinguisher assembly to a structure. An adapter further comprised of a first end fastened to the spray nozzle and a second end connected to an extinguisher tank is also disclosed to provide the said connection, therefore the fire retardant agent is expelled directly from the extinguisher tank through to the dispersion vents.

Abstract: According to one general aspect, a computer-implemented method may include implementing, in a web browser executing on a computing device, a first extension process. The first extension process may be functionally isolated from a second extension process that is implemented in the web browser. The method may also include presenting, by the first extension process, a public messaging interface. The method may further include receiving, by the first extension process via the public messaging interface, a messaging request from the second extension process, the messaging request including a unique extension ID of the second extension process. The method may also include determining, by the public messaging interface, whether to accept or reject the messaging request based on the first unique extension ID.

Abstract: A mobile device may establish and register a connection to a first network at a registration server, and may subsequently establish and register a connection to a second network at the registration server. Registration of the connection to the second network may designate the second network as a primary network for providing services to the mobile device. In response to the registration of the connection to the second network, the mobile device may receive a notification indicating the connection to the second network is designated as a primary connection for providing at least one service to the mobile device. In response to receiving the notification, the mobile device may transmit, to a network entity, a pullback message including a request to refresh the registration of the first network at the registration server, thereby designating the first network as the primary network for providing the services to the mobile device.

Abstract: An extension schema validator may be executable within an extension process of an extension of a browser application, and may be configured to validate the extension with respect to an extension application program interface (API) that is provided in conjunction with the browser application for implementation of the extension. A browser schema validator may be executable within a browser process of the browser application, and may be configured to validate the extension with respect to the extension API. Successful validation of the extension by the extension schema validator prior to attempting validation of the extension by the browser schema validator may be required.

Abstract: A method and system for monitoring events related to web browser extensions includes storing a set of events for which a browser extension integrated in a web browser application registers a listener. The browser extension integrated in the web browser application is executed. Upon the occurrence of an event related to the browser extension, an invisible event page associated with the browser extension is loaded if the event is one of the set of events. Using the invisible event page, a function related to a visible object of the browser extension is executed. The invisible event page is unloaded from the browser after receiving an acknowledgement from the browser extension.

Abstract: A system includes an extension manager configured to cause at least one processor to execute multiple extensions in parallel that each attempt to modify a network request related to a webpage, and a conflict manager. The conflict manager is configured to cause the at least one processor to resolve conflicts among attempts by the multiple extensions to modify the network request. The conflicts are resolved using a set of precedence criteria and conflict rules. The conflict rules include for example logic that specifies that the network request is cancelled if any of the multiple extensions attempt to cancel the request. As another example, if at least two of the multiple extensions attempt to redirect the network request to at least two different URLs, the system determines which one extension is allowed to redirect the network request, and allows only the attempt by the one extension to redirect the network request.
