  • Patent number: 9864876
    Abstract: A system for live editing and publishing of documents within a content management system using a hybrid draft authorization workflow within an authoring component used for content creation, draft editing and/or published editing, to control and manage access, permissions, documents revisions, histories, and associated content in a real-time environment without a need for server administrator approval, as well as streamlined to avoid iterative revision issues, merging conflicts and associated complexities of collaborative editing.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7702749
    Abstract: The joining of Web services is accomplished via a virtual contract through the use of safeties. The joining of Web services heightens the safe interoperability of Web services to create greater functionality than each Web service alone can provide. Web services are joined for interoperability when the type of a port of one Web service is compatible with the type of another port of another Web service.

  • Patent number: 7216335
    Abstract: A program includes expressions written in a process-based language. A process kernel executes sets of operational semantics rules governing the meanings of the expressions in the program. A first expression is parsed. The first expression describes that a process is a choice of two processes. The first process of the two processes expresses that a first query is submitted to a queue, after which the first process continues with a first set of actions. The second process of the two processes expresses that a second query is submitted to the queue, after which the second process continues with a second set of actions. The first expression reduces to a second expression. The second expression describes that a third query is submitted to the queue after which the first process runs in parallel with the second process if the third query is in canonical form.

  • Patent number: 7117487
    Abstract: A program that includes expressions written in a process-based language for representing protocol-based applications as processes is disclosed. The process kernel executes a set of equational laws governing structural equivalence of expressions written in the process-based language. A first expression is parsed. The first expression describes that a query is being executed in parallel with a process. The query has a head, which is empty, and a body, which contains a first name being bound to a second name. The first expression is translated as structurally equivalent to a second expression. The second expression describes that the query is executed in parallel with the process if the query is in canonical form. Each occurrence of the first name in the process is replaceable with the second name.

  • Patent number: 7055142
    Abstract: A program that includes expressions written in a process-based language for representing protocol-based applications as processes is disclosed. A process kernel executes the expressions in the program. The process kernel parses an expression to obtain syntactical elements that represent a queue, a set of queue delimiters, a query, a sequence delimiter, and other actions. The process kernel further translates the expression as a process whose first action is submitting the query as another process to the queue and after which the process continues with other actions. The query includes an organization scheme formed from a customizable, tag-based language that contains data and describes data.

  • Publication number: 20050204023
    Abstract: Computing entities in a dynamic, decentralized computing environment are treated as if these computing entities were nodes in a graph linked by edges so as to match these nodes until no further matches are possible. New nodes may dynamically be introduced into the decentralized computing environment and yet various embodiments of the present invention continue to match nodes while inhibiting deadlocks in the decentralized computing environment.

  • Publication number: 20040064528
    Abstract: The joining of Web services is accomplished via a virtual contract through the use of safeties. The joining of Web services heightens the safe interoperability of Web services to create greater functionality than each Web service alone can provide. Moreover, because the joining of Web services is formed programmatically, Web services are more trustworthy, dependable, and available if the safeties of Web services are complied with.

  • Publication number: 20030212761
    Abstract: A program that includes expressions written in a process-based language for representing protocol-based applications as processes is disclosed. A process kernel executes the expressions in the program. The expressions specify the interactions of processes by allowing a named organizational scheme of data written in a customizable, tag-based language to be exchanged as a process among processes. The named organizational scheme of data being bound to the scopes of processes that send and receive the named organizational scheme of data.
