  • Patent number: 9465953
    Abstract: Virtual file management is disclosed. Managed content from multiple separate storage domains is organized into a virtual file system that maintains with respect to each of at least a subset of said separate storage domains information of storage domain specific file system primitives to perform primitive operations with respect to content stored in that storage domain. Policies are determined that apply to the managed content. Each policy indicates primitive operations permitted to be performed with respect to the managed content. Information comprising the virtual file system and the policies is provided to a client application on a mobile device. The client application is configured to provide access to the managed content in the virtual file system in a manner at least in part indicated in the policies, including by allowing the permitted primitive operations to be performed using said storage domain specific file system primitives.

  • Publication number: 20140325445
    Abstract: A method and device for enhancing scrolling operations in a display of a device is disclosed. The method includes detecting a scrolling operation on a list of objects in a linear direction. During the scrolling operation, it is determined whether the list of objects is reaching an end and at least one object at the end of the list of objects is extended in the linear direction in response to reaching the end of the list of objects. Further, the method includes determining that the object(s) is reaching a peak length of extension in the linear direction and retracting the object(s) in a reverse linear direction in response to reaching the peak length or in response to detecting that the scrolling operation is terminated.
