  • Patent number: 10502839
    Abstract: A method for reducing battery consumption while automatically tracking mileage may include detecting a trip initiation event at a location of a mobile device, initiating, by activating a geolocation sensor, tracking of global positions, and obtaining a global position of the mobile device corresponding to the location. The method may further include adding the global position to a global position sequence, and detecting, using trip updating parameters, a sequence of trip updating events. The trip updating parameters may include an update distance, an update period, and a reduced update velocity. The method may further include obtaining a sequence of updated global positions corresponding to the sequence of trip updating events. The method may further include adding each updated global position to the global position sequence, detecting a trip termination event, and stopping, in response to detecting the trip termination event, the tracking of global positions by deactivating the geolocation sensor.

  • Publication number: 20130144942
    Abstract: A method for accessing content during a client server application session comprises receiving a first request to access the content using a first network protocol, the first request comprising a first user identifier, generating a user data item for including in a user data set of the client server application session, wherein the user data set is tagged with the first user identifier, receiving a second request to access the content using a second network protocol, wherein the second request comprises a second user identifier; analyzing the second request to obtain the first user identifier; retrieving the user data item from the user data set based on the first user identifier, and providing a requested portion of the content based on the user data item.

  • Publication number: 20130143611
    Abstract: A method for accessing content during a client server application session involves receiving an instruction to switch from using a network communication protocol to a text messaging service (TMS) protocol for data communication of the client server application session, wherein accessing the content is based on an user interface (UI) when the network communication protocol is used for the client server application session; sending a text identifier associated with a UI data item of the UI, where the text identifier is sent to a global textsite platform (GTP) using the TMS protocol, and where the UI data item is for requesting a portion of the content from a computer server; receiving a text page from the GTP using the TMS protocol, wherein the text page is derived from the portion of the content; and presenting the text page to a user during the client server application session.
