Automation system and method

A computer-implemented method, computer program product and computing system for receiving a complex task; processing the complex task to define a plurality of discrete tasks each having a discrete goal; executing the plurality of discrete tasks on a plurality of machine-accessible public computing platforms; determining if any of the plurality of discrete tasks failed to achieve its discrete goal; and if a specific discrete task failed to achieve its discrete goal, defining a substitute discrete task having a substitute discrete goal.

INSTRUCTION INTERPRETATION FOR WEB TASK AUTOMATION
20230045426 · 2023-02-09 ·

A method of generating an instruction performance skeleton employs an instruction unit configured to receive a natural language instruction. From the natural language instruction, a sequence of clauses may be extracted. The instruction unit then determines a target website or websites on which to perform the task. The object models of the target website are generated. A comparison of the sequence of actions to the object model and its labelling hierarchical class structure is performed. Based on this comparison, an instruction performance skeleton is generated. In future, on the basis of a further natural language instruction that is similar to the previous natural language instruction, the instruction performance skeleton may be modified to generate a playback performance skeleton to arrange performance of a task.

REDUCING COMPUTING CALLS FOR WEBPAGE LOAD TIMES AND RESOURCES
20230042767 · 2023-02-09 · ·

There are provided systems and methods for reducing computing calls for webpage load times and resources to reduce power usage and/or carbon footprints caused by repetitive navigations. A service provider, such as an online transaction processor, may provide computing services to users, which require computing devices of the users to interact with the service provider and load data on the computing devices, including webpages and application interfaces. Each of data loading event may have a cost, where repeating events may lead to unnecessary power usage, carbon emissions and/or a carbon footprint. A graph algorithmic process may utilize state diagrams of processing flows for data loading events with attributes for each data loading event to identify problematic repeated events. Once the problematic events are identified, the service provider may identify corrective actions to avoid or reduce the repetitive events, such as by merging data into one or more events.

INTERNET-BASED PROXY SERVICE TO MODIFY INTERNET RESPONSES

A proxy server receives from a client device a request for a network resource that is hosted at an origin server for a domain. The request is received at the proxy server as a result of a DNS request for the domain resolving to the proxy server. The origin server is one of multiple origin servers that belong to different domains that resolve to the proxy server and are owned by different entities. The proxy server retrieves the requested network resource. The proxy server determines that the requested resource is an HTML page. The proxy server scans the HTML page to locate one or more modification tokens that each indicates content that is subject to being modified. For at least one of the located modification tokens, the proxy server automatically modifies at least a portion of the content of the HTML page that corresponds to that modification token. The proxy server then transmits the modified HTML page to the client device.

GENERATING A VISUAL LAYOUT TREE USING CACHING TECHNIQUES

A layout engine generates a visual layout tree for a visual description tree of a document whose content is to be rendered in one or more display areas. A visual description tree describes the content of a document along with formatting and logical arrangement the content. Visual description nodes of a visual description tree represent the organization of the constituent elements a document hierarchically. A visual layout tree defines the layout of a document within one or more display areas. Visual layout nodes of a visual layout tree represent the layout of the content of a document hierarchically. The layout engine receives as input a visual description tree and generates the corresponding visual layout tree. A rendering engine then inputs the visual layout tree and generates a graphics buffer containing the pixels representing the layout of the document as defined by the visual layout tree.
