  • Patent number: 11687334
    Abstract: A peer-to-peer decentralized software configuration manager is described. The peer-to-peer system provides a crowdsourced mechanism to determine and recommend the efficient software configurations. A computer system may subscribe to a ring or group of network connected computers. Once subscribed, the computer system receives a ring data structure that may include one or more software configuration entries. The ring data structure is accessible to each subscribed computer system to the currently installed software configurations and document the relative success or failure of those configurations. The ring data structure may be utilized to identify a more efficient or user friendly software configuration that is currently installed and utilized by a subscribed computer system.

  • Publication number: 20220398112
    Abstract: A method is provided. The method may include, in response to electronically receiving on a first computing device a navigation file from a secondary computing device, generating a graphical navigation guide for a user interface (UI) based on the navigation file, wherein generating the graphical navigation guide comprises generating computer operations for the first computing device corresponding to the sequence of computer operations from the navigation file. The method may further include, based on the generated computer operations, executing the graphical navigation guide on the UI associated with the first computing device, wherein executing the graphical navigation guide comprises displaying a screen and a UI element corresponding to the sequence of computer operations, and wherein displaying the UI element comprises rendering an overlay on the UI element that highlights the UI element on the displayed screen and instructs a user to perform an input action on the UI element.

  • Patent number: 11200910
    Abstract: A processor may store a first version of an audio file and fragment the audio file into at least a first time segment. The processor may receive a first edit to the audio file and identify a first edited version of the first time segment in the first edit. The processor may update the first version of the audio file with the first edit, resulting in a second version of the audio file comprising the first edited version of the first time segment. The processor may receive a second edit to the first version of the audio file and identify a second edited version of the first time segment in the second edit. The processor may determine, based on the second edited version, that the second edit alters an outdated version of the first time segment, resulting in an edit conflict. The processor may notify a user of the conflict.

  • Publication number: 20190156441
    Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable development of interwoven group trip itineraries based on social media footprints. More specifically, for each member of the group, a travel interests footprint is generated based on his/her social media history. These footprints are mapped together in a semantic web that includes identifiers associated with the interests of the footprints. Activities corresponding to a time and location are obtained and matched based on correlations to the interest-associated identifiers. Based on an association of a group member’ footprint to a semantic web identifier, and from there to an activity, itineraries are built for the members and activities are added to particular members' itineraries in which those members are likely to have an interest. Based on user-defined criteria, activities in the itineraries can be shared by the group as a whole or subgroups may be formed when the itineraries of some group members are assigned different activities.
