  • Patent number: 10764352
    Abstract: Systems and methods for a web event framework include receiving at a framework plugin an event from a web browser, wherein the framework plugin is coupled to the web browser, generating, by the framework plugin, a framework event based on the event, forwarding the framework event to a framework server coupled to the framework plugin, receiving at the framework server the framework event from the framework plugin, determining, at the framework server, a framework action based on the framework event and a framework policy, forwarding the framework action to the framework plugin, and executing the framework action by the framework plugin, wherein executing the framework action includes modifying one or more settings for the web browser, wherein the modified settings are based on the framework policy and sending an instruction to the web browser to cause the web browser to reload at least one web page under the modified settings.

  • Patent number: 9167052
    Abstract: The disclosed subject matter provides apparatus, systems, and methods for preventing a user from disabling a software extension to a network-based application, thereby allowing a computing device to enforce the software extension even if the user wants to disable the software extension. The disclosed apparatus, systems, and methods can prevent a user from disabling a software extension by blocking an access to a communications network via the network-based application when the software extension is disabled.

  • Publication number: 20070174458
    Abstract: The invention comprises a computer-implemented process for managing computing resources provided to customers in an on-demand data center. The process comprises: providing a shared computing environment; providing to each customer one or more logical partitions of computing resources within the shared computing environment; allocating at least one processing engine to each logical partition; modeling a selected customer's resource utilization as a beta distribution; iteratively selecting a random resource utilization value from the beta distribution and, for each logical partition, calculating a processing engine differential; for each iteration, calculating a collective processing engine differential until the collective processing engine differential converges on an optimal processing engine differential; and adjusting the number of processing engines by the optimal processing engine differential to achieve an optimal free pool size.
