Abstract: A method and system for processing messages is disclosed that includes receiving a plurality of messages directed to a user, where each message has a unique message identifier. Each of the plurality of messages may be associated with a respective conversation, where each conversation has a respective conversation identifier. Also, each conversation includes a set of one or more messages sharing a common set of characteristics that meet a first predefined criteria. A list of conversations is displayed as a set of rows in an order determined by a second predefined criteria, where each row corresponds to one of the listed conversations and includes at least a sender list, a conversation topic and a date/time value. The contents of a conversation is displayed when the user selects a conversation from the displayed list of conversations. Messages can be displayed in one of three modes: expanded, compacted and hidden.

Abstract: This application is directed to an indexing system for graph data. In particular implementations, the indexing system uses a database index infrastructure that provides for flexible search capability to data objects and associations between data objects. Particular embodiments relate to an indexing system for storing and serving information modeled as a graph that includes nodes and edges that define associations or relationships between nodes that the edges connect in the graph.

Abstract: A process searches electronic messages. The process displays a user interface for an electronic messaging application, including a label list panel comprising labels and an electronic message list panel comprising listed objects associated with a user of the electronic messaging application. Each respective object is visually distinct and represents one or more corresponding electronic messages received by the user. The user selects a first label from the label list panel and a first electronic message from the electronic message list panel. The user associates the first electronic message with the first label. The process receives a search query for electronic messages associated with the first label. In response, the process identifies electronic messages associated with the first label. The identified electronic messages include the first electronic message.

Abstract: Systems and methods for storing a plurality of conversations are provided. Each such conversation has a corresponding conversation identifier and one or more messages sharing a common set of characteristics that meet predefined criteria. Information is sent to a remote computer identifying the conversations and providing sufficient information to rank them in accordance with a date/time value of a most recently received message of each conversation thereby causing a first conversation to be ordered before a second conversation. Subsequently, a first message that is deemed to belong to the second conversation is obtained and added to the second conversation. Information is resent to a remote computer identifying the plurality of conversations and providing sufficient information to rank the plurality of conversations in accordance with a date/time value of a most recently received message of each respective conversation thereby causing the first conversation to be ordered after the second conversation.

Abstract: A host system sends a web page to a client system via a communications network, and receives inputs from the client system, via the communications network, that include user text inputs to the web page. The inputs are received without receiving from the client system, via the communications network, a user-initiated command that would require saving user inputs to the web page. The host system makes incremental changes to a backup copy of user inputs to the web page, stored at the host system, in accordance with the received inputs. In accordance with detection by the host system of a restart condition for the web page corresponding to prior closure of the web page at the client system, the host system sends the backup copy to the client system for presentation to a user of the client system.

Abstract: System and methods of searching conversations are provided. At a computing device having one or more processors and memory storing programs executed by the one or more processors, and responsive to a search query a conversation having two or more messages is identified. Further, there is formatted for display to a user (A) information representing the identified conversation, and (B) a sorted sender list displayed as a single-line item, associated with the identified conversation. The sorted sender list includes (i) a first sender identifier identifying a first sender of a first message in the two or more messages, and (ii) a second sender identifier identifying a second sender of a second message in the two or more messages. The first sender list identifier and the second identifier are sorted.

Abstract: In a method performed by a host system with one or more processors, the host system sends a web page to a client system via a communications network. The host system receives inputs from the client system, via the communications network, that include user text inputs to the web page. The inputs are received prior to receiving from the client system, via the communications network, a user-initiated command that would require saving user inputs to the web page. The host system also periodically auto-saves a backup copy of at least some of the received user text inputs to the web page, prior to receiving the user-initiated command that would require saving user inputs to the web page.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the production of high quality synthesis gas rich in hydrogen during the process of upgrading the residual hydrocarbon oil feedstock by rejuvenating the spent upgrading material in Reformer in absence of air/oxygen without supplying external heat source other than the heat generated inside the process during combustion of residual coke deposited on the upgrading material. The present invention further relates to the apparatus used for preparation of syngas wherein said syngas thus produced is used for production of hydrogen gas. Furthermore, the present invention also provides system and method for preparing pure hydrogen from syngas.

Abstract: Security tapes are disclosed that include a first substrate having a first major surface covered with a first PSA, a plurality of discrete pieces of second substrate laminated to the first major surface of the first substrate by the first PSA, and a second PSA applied to each of the plurality of discrete pieces of second substrate on a first surface opposite the first substrate. The first substrate is continuous in both the machine and transverse directions. Each discrete piece of second substrate has a length oriented in the transverse direction and may be spaced a distance apart, in the machine direction, from each adjacent piece of second substrate. The first adhesion of the first PSA for each of the discrete pieces of second substrate is less than a second adhesion of the second PSA for a packaging material or packaging carton.

Abstract: Systems and methods for spam detection within electronic messages transported over a communication network. One embodiment is a spam center that connects to multiple entities of a communication network that handle electronic messages, such as text messages. The spam center receives spam reports from the entities that detect spam in prior electronic messages, analyzes the spam reports to generate spam filtering rules based on the spam detected in the prior electronic messages. The spam center then distributes the spam filtering rules to one or more of the entities. The entities may then use to spam filtering rules to filter spam out of electronic messages that subsequently received.
