  • Patent number: 11054266
    Abstract: A user's travel is securely monitored using user-configured secure travel monitoring constraints within a secure travel profile. The user-configured secure travel monitoring constraints granularly specify controls related to user travel privacy and authorized release of travel information to a user-specified trusted third party in association with the user's travel, in addition to specifying a planned travel route and a planned travel time frame. A route deviation by the user relative to the planned travel route or planned travel time frame is detected during the secure monitoring of the user's travel. A user-configured level of travel information authorized by the user to be released to the user-specified trusted third party within a traveler safety alert responsive to the route deviation is determined based upon the user-configured secure travel monitoring constraints. The traveler safety alert with the user-configured level of travel information is sent to the user-specified trusted third party.

  • Patent number: 10120527
    Abstract: Dynamic display of hierarchical data in the form of a treemap. A first instance of an object representation is selected in a first visualization of a hierarchy encoded by containment. A second instance of the object representation is designated, wherein each instance is a tier for object occupation. An object within the hierarchy is displayed as a shape comprising at least two opposing surfaces, and the object is selected through the opposing surfaces. The hierarchy is dynamically re-ordered in response to the selection and designation, and the second representation of the hierarchy is displayed based on the dynamic re-ordering.

  • Patent number: 9740793
    Abstract: In an approach for exposing fragment identifiers within an information resource, a processor receives a markup language document of an information resource. A processor identifies a fragment identifier within the markup language document and a location within the information resource corresponding to the fragment identifier. A processor presents the information resource and an indication of the location within the information resource corresponding to the fragment identifier.

  • Publication number: 20160154894
    Abstract: A method for exposing fragment identifiers within an information resource method includes receiving a markup language document of an information resource. The information resource is a web page. The method includes identifying a fragment identifier within the markup language document and a location within the information resource corresponding to the fragment identifier. The method includes receiving an input selection to open a context menu at the location within the information resource corresponding to the fragment identifier. The method includes presenting the information resource and an indication of the location within the information resource corresponding to the fragment identifier. The indication of the location within the information resource corresponding to the fragment identifier includes a selectable element.
