Publication number: 20230274027Abstract: Content management systems are implemented according to a multitenant architecture by which software and its supporting architecture serves multiple customers of a service. Each tenant may be given a share of the application's data, configuration, user management, and other aspects of the application. Each tenant's data is isolated and typically remains invisible to other tenants so that tenants do not share or see each other's data. Embodiments described herein provide mechanisms by which a tenant can delegate administrator rights to an external user such that the external user can grant other users access to the tenant's content while the tenant controls the level of access that is provided to the external users.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2023Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Kyle Anthony Aziz, Scott Grasley, Feng Guo

Publication number: 20220027317Abstract: Systems and methods for cloud-based file sharing, where templates are provided for creating workflow instances which enable the sharing of managed objects. Reusable workflow templates are stored in the repository of a cloud-based file sharing system as objects that define components of the workflow, or placeholders for these components. A user instantiates a workflow instance from one of the templates and configures the workflow instance to identify content objects or forms, tasks related to the content objects, and users assigned to perform the tasks. The workflow instance is stored as an object in the repository. Users assigned to tasks are authorized through the workflow instance to access the content objects or forms to perform the tasks.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 4, 2021Publication date: January 27, 2022Inventors: Kyle Anthony Aziz, Scott Grasley

Patent number: 8223959Abstract: A system includes microphone devices, echo cancellation mechanism, and speaker devices. Each echo cancellation mechanism corresponds to one of the microphone devices. Each speaker device corresponds to a sound source signal. Each sound source signal is spatially distributed to all the speaker devices, and each echo cancellation mechanism receives as a reference signal a combination of all the sound source signals.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2007Date of Patent: July 17, 2012Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Scott Grasley, David R Ingalls, Otto Gygax

Patent number: 7984178Abstract: An apparatus has a content node to logically select a first A/V stream from an application layer of a first network and a collaboration node to logically select a second A/V stream from an application layer of a second network. A set of non-network media link interfaces are configured to transmit the second A/V stream from the collaboration node to the content node, and to transmit the first A/V stream from content node to the collaboration node. The non-network media link interfaces provide for limited information encoding to prevent network protocol information from being transferred between the first and second networks.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2010Date of Patent: July 19, 2011Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Ted W Beers, Mark E Gorzynski, William C Wickes, Jon A Brewster, Garrett Daniel Gargan, Jeffrey L Thielman, Scott Grasley
