  • Method and apparatus for navigation using multiple synchronized mobile devices
    Patent number: 10296516
    Abstract: An approach is provided for providing different views of an ongoing application across multiple devices in a synchronized manner. A synchronization platform determines that at least one device and at least one other device are executing at least one common application. The synchronization platform causes, at least in part, a synchronization of data for the at least one common application among the at least one device and the at least one other device. In addition, the synchronization platform determines one or more respective user interface views for presenting the data on the at least one device, the at least one other device, or a combination thereof, wherein the one or more respective user interface views are presented via the at least one common application.

  • Method and apparatus for mixed static and dynamic routing
    Patent number: 9551580
    Abstract: Techniques for mixed static and dynamic routing include determining a subset of less than all of a plurality of stopover points of an initial route of ordered stopover points. In the subset, all stopover points are marked as dynamic to indicate that their order is allowed to change. It is also determined whether there are at least two stopover points for which order may be changed. If there are at least two stopover points for which order may be changed, then a computed route is determined in which an order in the computed route of the stopover points of the subset minimizes a metric for the entire route compared to any other allowed order of the stopover points of the subset.
