Abstract:
Methods and systems may involve identifying metadata associated with a local application, and using an operating system-independent chat protocol to pass the metadata to a remote application. The metadata may include information to be presented to a user of a device executing the remote application, information to be used to locate more information for presentation to the user of the other device, information to be used to coordinate operation of multiple devices, and so forth. In one example, the metadata is passed using a protocol such as XMPP (Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol).
Abstract:
A system, devices, and methods for providing a personalized search library based on continual concept correlation include a client computing device and a personalized content server. Content events representing content accessed or manipulated by a user of the client computing device are continually generated. Content associated with the content events is continually parsed and analyzed to extract main concepts. The extracted concepts are correlated and weighted into a concept model, based on the order of the content events. The concept model parallels the structure of the user's memory. Data sources are continually searched for content relevant to a current context of the concept model. Relevant content is indexed according to the concept model. The relevant content may be made available to the user upon request or proactively. Relevant content may be cached for future use by the user. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
Abstract:
Systems and methods may provide for brokering limited access to a service device via an intermediary. In one example, the method may include receiving a request communication at a control device including a request for limited access to a service device, wherein the request is received from an intermediary device on behalf of a request device, and transmitting an access communication to the intermediary device, wherein the access communication includes an access ticket to be used by the request device to gain the limited access of the service device.
Abstract:
Methods and systems may involve receiving metadata associated with an activity of a user with respect to a first device, and capturing discovery content from one or more media sources based on the metadata. In addition, the discovery content and the metadata may be presented to the user via a second device.
Abstract:
Methods and systems may involve storing device-specific user preference data to a local device and receiving a real-time request from a remote device. One or more user coefficients may be used to filter the device-specific user preference data in response to the request. In one example, the user preference data includes keyword data and the filtered keyword data is used to discover and present information to the user via the remote device.
Abstract:
Described herein are systems and methods for managing and distributing device and/or software settings. In some embodiments, the systems and methods permit a first device to upload settings information and/or user information to a network server. The network server may store such settings information and post it for download by at least one second device. Mechanisms for establishing a trust rating for such settings information are also described.
Abstract:
Methods and systems may involve identifying source content associated with an activity of a user with respect to a first media source. Discovery content may be captured from one or more additional media sources based on the source content, wherein the discovery content may be presented to the user if at least a portion of the discovery content is tangential to the source content.
Abstract:
Methods of using subcutaneously implantable sensor devices and associated systems having a communication module that is controlled based upon the detection of a predetermined chemical agent.
Abstract:
Systems and methods may provide for identifying sensor data associated with an intraoral device and analyzing a chemical composition of an ingestible product based on the sensor data. Additionally, a notification may be selectively generated based on the chemical composition. In one example, analyzing the chemical composition includes determining the level of one or more of an allergen, a toxin or a predetermined substance in the ingestible product.
Abstract:
Methods and systems associated with personal cloud computing (PCC) are disclosed herewith. In embodiments, a method may include receiving, by a PCC client device, a message from a PCC server. The message may include information for migrating a session of an application executing on another PCC client device off the other client device. In response, an application may be launched, by the client device, to migrate the session onto the client device, using the information included in the message. In embodiments, a PCC server may be configured to receive a request from a PCC client device to migrate a session of an application executing on the client device off the client device; and in response, to send a message to another PCC client device equipped to launch an application on the other client device to migrate the session onto the other client device. The message may include information for the migration. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
