  • Applications including multiple experience modules
    Patent number: 9672022
    Abstract: An application on a device includes multiple experience modules that each implement a set of features when the application is running on the device. Each of the multiple experience modules includes a first component that includes code specific to a particular type of the device, and a second component that includes code that is common across multiple types of devices. Update packages changing individual ones of the multiple experience modules can be received from a deployment service and installed on the device.
    Type: Grant

  • Identification of software configuration data
    Patent number: 8006242
    Abstract: Identification of software configuration data. One or more binary files from a memory area in a computing device are identified. The binary files include information relating to execution of software. One or more strings from the identified binary files are extracted according to a rule. The rule defines requirements associated with the configuration data. A list of strings is generated from those extracted one or more strings, each of the strings in the generated list refers to configuration data in the memory area. The configuration data may be transferred to another machine, backed up, or used for informational purposes.

  • Identification of software execution data
    Patent number: 7900202
    Abstract: Identification of software program data and configuration data. A set of installation data is identified from an installation log. A set of deduced data is determined based on the identified set of installation data, using various algorithms and heuristics. A set of program data is organized as a function of the starting and deduced data, said program data constituting all data belonging to the software. The software is applied from the source computing device to a destination computing device as a function of the organized set of program data such that the application process mimics the actions of the software's installer so that the software functions seamlessly on the destination computing device.
