Patent number: 10289743Abstract: A client computing architecture is provided that utilized minimal download and simulated page navigation features. A client computer may receive a payload comprising delta data in response to a navigation request for an electronic page. The client computer may further parse the delta data for the electronic page, update page contents for the electronic page based on the received delta data, determine whether one or more errors are associated with a page load process for the electronic page, manage a fragment identifier portion of a uniform resource locator (URL) to track a current location in a navigation of the electronic page, and intercept one or more navigation click events to ensure a minimal download strategy navigation.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2012Date of Patent: May 14, 2019Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Arye Gittelman, Petru Mihai Moldovanu, Sterling John Crockett, Jonathan Fred Keslin, Aditi Mandal, Cindy Liao Hartwig, Erin Megan Riley, Xiaomei Wang

Patent number: 10223155Abstract: Embodiments are provided that include the use of a cancellable command application programming interface (API) framework that provides cooperative multitasking for synchronous and asynchronous operations based in part on a command timing sequence and a cancellable command API definition. A method of an embodiment enables a user or programmer to use a cancellable command API definition as part of implementing a responsive application interface using a command timing sequence to control execution of active tasks. A cancellable command API framework of an embodiment includes a command block including a command function, a task engine to monitor the command function, and a timer component to control execution of asynchronous and synchronous tasks based in part on first and second control timing intervals associated with a command timing sequence. Other embodiments are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2014Date of Patent: March 5, 2019Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Arye Gittelman, Petru Mihai Moldovanu, Sterling John Crockett

Patent number: 10142399Abstract: Embodiments are provided that include client-server computing architectures that use minimal download features and functionality as part of page navigation operations, but are not so limited. In an embodiment, a client-server computer system uses a page transition strategy to navigate between electronic pages based in part on script, style, content, and/or other page differences that can be used as part of providing minimal download features and functionality. A method of an embodiment operates to package page incremental rendering information for use in rendering a new electronic page without having to reapply common aspects of the new electronic page and a reference electronic page. Other embodiments are also disclosed.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2014Date of Patent: November 27, 2018Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Arye Gittelman, Petru Mihai Moldovanu, Sterling John Crockett, Patrick Carl Miller

Patent number: 7590634Abstract: Detection and indication of inaccessible resources associated with a webpage is disclosed. Dependent resource identifiers are generated. The identifiers facilitate the query of a resource database to ascertain the status of dependent resources. The status of the dependent resources facilitates the marking of the resources in the webpage, and/or the generation of a report that indicates the status of dependent resources. An interface is provided so an author may easily ascertain the status of a dependent resource before publication of a webpage. In this manner, an author may easily and efficiently ascertain dependent resources that are subject to security right issues and/or versioning issues before publishing a webpage.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 2005Date of Patent: September 15, 2009Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Sterling John Crockett, Shiu-Kai Lee, William James Griffin
