Patent number: 11526520Abstract: An action framework system provides context-based actions in association with a source application. The source application detects selection of a content element presented by the source application. The content element is associated with an application identifier identifying a target application and an action identifier identifying an operation to be executed by the target application on the content element. The target application identified by the application identifier is executed to perform the operation identified by the action identifier on the content element, responsive to detection of the selection of the content element. In one implementation, the source application is a search feature providing different contexts of search results (e.g., from a local file system search, a local application content search, a Web search, a remote application content search).Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2019Date of Patent: December 13, 2022Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Max Glenn Morris, Sashi Raghupathy, Manoj Kumar Biswas, Amy Rambhia, Daniel Oliver, Robert Emmett Kolba, Jr., Sandy Wong

Patent number: 10642669Abstract: An operating system provides an extensible share action to broker content sharing between applications executing on a computing platform such as a personal computer, tablet computer, or smartphone. The share action enables a consistent user experience for content sharing to be implemented across all applications and eliminates users having to switch from the current application they are using to some other functionality in order to share content. Applications can participate with the operating system share action as source applications and/or target applications. Source applications may describe what content is shareable given the current state of their application when the user chooses to invoke the share action. Target applications can be configured to receive the shared content from the source application according to content type, and will expose a companion view of their application to the user that is specifically tailored to facilitate sharing.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2018Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Katie Messerly, Christopher Clark, Feng Zhao, Ahsan Kabir, Olivier Tritschler, Jesse Clay Satterfield, Ginger Gloystein, Billie Sue Chafins, Patrik Lundberg, Sashi Raghupathy, Manoj Biswas, Devang Thakker, Jensen Harris

Patent number: 9754123Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for dynamically maintaining user centric data. For example, a data provider app may have knowledge about user centric data associated with a user (e.g., a social network app may have contact information for a social network friend of the user). A user centric profile may be defined for the user centric data based upon information provided by the data provider app (e.g., a contact card may be generated for the social network friend). Responsive to receiving a request for the user centric profile from a requestor app (e.g., an event planning app), the user centric profile may be exposed to the user but not to the requestor app for security and/or privacy purposes. For example, an operating system may present at least some of the user centric profile within an operating system user interface.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2016Date of Patent: September 5, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Jacob Andrew Sabulsky, Christopher Scott Dickens, Zainab Hakim, Harris Syed, Axel Andrejs, John Saxon Morrow, Ranjib Singh Badh, Sarjana Sheth, Sermet Iskin, Manoj Kumar Biswas, Sashi Raghupathy, Jayaraman Kalyana Sundaram

Patent number: 9613264Abstract: Shape recognition is performed based on determining whether one or more ink strokes is not part of a shape or a partial shape. Ink strokes are divided into segments and the segments analyzed employing a relative angular distance histogram. The histogram analysis yields stable, incremental, and discriminating featurization results. Neural networks may also be employed along with the histogram analysis to determine complete shapes from partial shape entries and autocomplete suggestions provided to users for conversion of the shape into a known object.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2015Date of Patent: April 4, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Alexander Kolmykov-Zotov, Sashi Raghupathy, Xin Wang
