Patent number: 10110507Abstract: The present invention relates generally to network quality estimation using HTTP/2 push feature. When network quality estimation is required, a client web application requests a server to enter a probing mode. During the probing mode, the server pushes useful data to the application for the latter to perform the estimation. This avoids wasting bandwidth since the useful data are likely to be used by the application. Furthermore, during the probing mode, the server notifies the application of the push start and the push end of each pushed data. This is one using a web socket established with the application. This makes it possible to overcome the limitations of the application in accessing HTTP/2 features of a client browser. Based on the notifications, the application is able to perform accurate estimations.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2015Date of Patent: October 23, 2018Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Youenn Fablet, Romain Bellessort, Frédéric Maze

The method includes shortening a portion of the multimedia content having a start time and an end time from an original length to a shortened length based on a received indication and modifying the progress bar to represent the shortened portion of the multimedia content. The original length of the portion is represented by a curve adjacent to the progress bar, where a first end of the curve is adjacent to the progress bar at a location indicating the start time, and where a second end of the curve is adjacent to the progress bar at a location indicating the end time, and the shortened length of the portion is represented by a distance on the progress bar between the location indicating the start time and the location indicating the end time.Type: GrantFiled: February 24, 2016Date of Patent: April 10, 2018Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Chang Lei, Hu Wang, Cheng Zhang, Jian Zhang, Chao Zheng

Patent number: 9910534Abstract: A time based touch screen input recognition system detects a touch on a touch screen display by receiving a first signal indicating a start of the touch and starts a timer in response to the first signal. The system monitors a length of the touch as the touch continues, determines a current time period covering the length of the touch using a current value of the timer and identifies a first function corresponding to a current time period. The system further identifies a second function corresponding to a second signal indicating an end of the touch and causes a processing device to implement the corresponding function.Type: GrantFiled: February 11, 2016Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: Red Hat, Inc.Inventors: Jiri Pechanec, Pavel Macik

Patent number: 9910984Abstract: Various aspects include methods and computing devices implementing the methods for evaluating device behaviors in the computing devices. Aspect methods may include using a behavior-based machine learning technique to classify a device behavior as one of benign, suspicious, and non-benign. Aspect methods may include using one of a multi-label classification and a meta-classification technique to sub-classify the device behavior into one or more sub-categories. Aspect methods may include determining a relative importance of the device behavior based on the sub-classification, and determining whether to perform robust behavior-based operations based on the determined relative importance of the device behavior.Type: GrantFiled: August 27, 2015Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: QUALCOMM IncorporatedInventors: Andres Valencia, Vinay Sridhara, Yin Chen, Rajarshi Gupta

Patent number: 9875167Abstract: A computer-implemented method executed by one or more processors, the method includes monitoring execution of program code executed by a first processor component; and monitoring execution of program code executed by a second processor component. A computing system stores data identifying hardware events in a memory buffer. The stored events occur across processor units that include at least the first and second processor components. The hardware events each include an event time stamp and metadata characterizing the event. The system generates a data structure identifying the hardware events. The data structure arranges the events in a time ordered sequence and associates events with at least the first or second processor components. The system stores the data structure in a memory bank of a host device and uses the data structure to analyze performance of the program code executed by the first or second processor components.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2017Date of Patent: January 23, 2018Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Thomas Norrie, Naveen Kumar

Patent number: 9860063Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products are described that analyze the code of an application and, based on the analysis, identify whether data elements (e.g., columns) referenced by the code can be encrypted, and for those data elements that can be encrypted, recommend an encryption scheme. The recommended encryption scheme for a given data element may be the highest level of encryption that can be applied thereto without affecting the semantics of the application code. The output generated based on the analysis may not only include a mapping of each data element to a recommended encryption scheme, but may also include an explanation of why each recommendation was made for each data element. Such explanation may include, for example, an identification of the application code that gave rise to the recommendation for each data element.Type: GrantFiled: February 27, 2015Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Ajay S.
