  • Patent number: 9563449
    Abstract: Mechanisms are provided to mobilize a web application (e.g., a webpage) to take advantage of a native device capability (e.g., a native device capability of a mobile device). In one example, existing program code in a webpage that performs a first action that uses functionality of desktop software is identified and replaced with replacement program code that performs a second action that uses native device capability of a mobile device.

  • Patent number: 9560557
    Abstract: A processor-implemented method, apparatus, and/or computer program product move Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) layer 4 connections between wirelessly-connected user equipment to a series of cell-towers, wherein an OSI layer 4 connection is extracted out of the underlying cellular protocols at the series of cell-towers. A detection is made that user equipment, which has a broken-out layer 4 connection, has moved from a first cell-tower to a second cell-tower. Traffic for an existing layer 4 connection from the user equipment is tunnelled between the first cell-tower and the second cell-tower. In response to a predetermined trigger event occurring, an ongoing bidirectional flow of data packets is migrated from the user equipment over to layer 4 connections maintained at the second cell-tower. Furthermore, OSI layer 4 connections for all server ports other than the proxied active layer 4 connections that are proxied in the web cache are byte cached.

  • Patent number: 9560155
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a method, system and computer program product for content caching with remote filtering services in a radio access network (RAN). In an embodiment of the invention, a method for content caching with remote filtering services in a RAN can include receiving a response to a request from an end user device wirelessly coupled to a base station of the RAN, marking the response as uncacheable, and routing the response to the base station over a data communications network. In one aspect of the embodiment, the response can be received in an RNC of the RAN. Of note, the process of marking the response as uncacheable can depend upon the evaluation of a policy with respect to the response. Finally, in another aspect of the embodiment, marking the response as uncacheable, can include annotating a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) header of the response to indicate that the response is not to be cached in the base station.

  • Patent number: 9560114
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to message switch file sharing. A file is accessed by a computer processor of a client producer device to share with a plurality of client consumer devices across a network. The computer processor partitions the file into a sequence of message payloads associated with a topic and a scheme. The scheme defines a sequence identifier to establish an order to reassemble the sequence of message payloads into the file. A sequence of messages is formed including the topic and the sequence of message payloads. The sequence of messages is published to a message queue associated with the topic in a message switch in the network. The message switch provides the client consumer devices with access to the sequence of message payloads based on subscriptions to the topic.

  • Patent number: 9542910
    Abstract: A self-calibrating imaging display system includes a display comprising a screen and at least one photosensor associated with the screen and generating an output signal correlating to measurements for at least one region of the screen. The system further includes a display adaptor configured for, during a calibration routine, generating a display test pattern in the at least one region of the screen comprising at least one measurement field that comprises a number of pixels less than a total number of pixels of the screen and causing the at least one measurement field to be stepped through a sequence of increasing display driving level values. The system also includes a calibration module configured for, during the calibration routine, receiving the output signal, comparing the output signal to reference data, and generating at least one correction factor based on the comparing.

  • Publication number: 20160292399
    Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for enforcing licensing terms when distributing content via a container image running in a container. Upon receiving a request for a service from the container by the isolation code, where the isolation code limits, accounts and isolates resource usage of process groups, the commerce code application programming interfaces (APIs) of the isolation code read a key of the container. The key contains licensing terms applied to the component(s) (e.g., applications) of the container. The commerce code APIs will then confirm that the container is in compliance with those licensing terms. If the container is in compliance with the licensing terms, the container will be allowed to execute. Otherwise, the container will be prevented from executing. In this manner, the commerce code APIs can enforce the licensing terms, including restrictions and enforcement of payment to the licensor upon distributing content in the container.

  • Publication number: 20160277337
    Abstract: Routing messages to message queues may be provided. In one embodiment of the present disclosure, a message may be routed to a message queue based on topic of the message, content of the message, application for which the message was intended, and/or a set of rules such as a rule based on queue length and queue balancing. A template integration process may subscribe to one or more topic queues, from which input parameters are obtained for invoking a service request from an application.

  • Patent number: 9396234
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for an event monitoring tool configured for complex event processing (CEP). In one embodiment, a data processing system can include a CEP event monitoring tool configured for coupling to touch points over a network and a repository of a log of events occurring in the touch points. A dashboard can be displayed by the tool and can include a canvas view of events, associated interaction blocks each including filter criteria for associated events, and at least one activity triggered by an evaluation of at least one of the filter criteria in at least one of the interaction blocks for a corresponding one of the touch points. The canvas view further can include visual links between the events and the associated interaction blocks and between the activity and an interaction block amongst the interaction blocks triggering the activity.

  • Patent number: 9383971
    Abstract: In an approach for mobilizing a web application, a processor receives a representational state transfer (REST) resource of a web application. A processor analyzes the REST resource to identify a pattern in the REST resource. A processor retrieves a template corresponding to the pattern in the REST resource. A processor generates a mobile web application based, at least in part, on the REST resource and the template.
