A server-based browser system provides a server-based browser and a client system browser. The client browser reports the position of a user click on its display screen, hotspot ID, or URL to the server-side browser which retrieves a Document Object Model (DOM) model and view tree for the client and finds the location on the Web page that the user clicked on using the coordinates or hotspot ID received from the client. If there is a script associated with the location, it is executed and the resulting page location is requested from the appropriate server. If there is a URL associated with the location, it is requested from the appropriate server. The response Web page HTML definition is parsed and a DOM tree model is created which is used to create a view tree model. The server-side browser retrieves a style sheet, layout algorithms, and device constraints for the client device and lays out the view model using them onto a virtual page and determines the visual content. Textual and positional information are highly compressed and formatted into a stream and sent to the client browser which decodes the stream and displays the page to the user using the textual and positional information.

A request to establish a bi-directional full-duplex network connection is received. The request conforms to a half-duplex network connection protocol and the half-duplex connection protocol is a HTTP based protocol. The request is processed to determine a decision on whether to allow the bi-directional full-duplex connection. In the event the decision is to allow the bi-directional full-duplex connection, the bi-directional full-duplex network connection is established using the half-duplex network connection protocol. The bi-directional full-duplex connection utilizes a WebSocket communication protocol. Establishing the bi-directional full-duplex connection utilizes a plurality of half duplex connections. A confirmation that the bi-directional full-duplex network connection has been established is provided.

A personalized feed system is described herein that provides feeds that are tailored to the preferences of each user of a real estate website or application. A user signs up to receive a stored profile with the website, and the profile includes information such as what geographical regions the buyer is interested in, what types of homes the buyer is looking for, and so on. The personalized feed system uses this information to provide a feed specific to the buyer that notifies the buyer of listings that are of particular relevance to that buyer. The personalized feed system summarizes other real estate events that are relevant to the user in a single time-oriented feed. Buyers receive information about new and/or modified listings, sales, outstanding offers, status of a transaction, and the like, while sellers receive information about sales, new and/or modified listings, open offers, and so on.

The invention is generally a system that enables a user to visually and graphically track their fitness goals using an interactive device connected to a server, wherein fitness progress data of the user is stored and made available to the user via a user interface, for example on a mobile device application or a webpage. The system of tracking fitness progress comprises a server, a database, and a device, for example a fitness booth, for taking images and gathering fitness progress data from a user. The information gathered at the fitness booth, including images, is stored in the database. Users are provided a graphical user interface to update and access their fitness progress data, thereby facilitating the user's tracking of their fitness progress.

A solution is proposed for accessing a database by an application client. A corresponding method comprises receiving a connection command for opening a user connection between a user client of the application client and the database from the application client, the connection command comprising an indication of a context of the user client, assigning an application connection between the application client and the database to the user client in response to the connection command, and switching a context of the application connection to the context of the user client.

A system includes a user interface presented to a developer. The developer selects a first function to supplement functionality of a first application with external functionality available from third party applications. A code generation module provides a software object to the developer for incorporation into a first state of the first application. The first state includes a user interface element associated with an entity. User selection of the user interface element initiates preparation of a query wrapper including a combination of the entity's name and a predefined text string corresponding to the first function. The query wrapper is transmitted to a search system and a result set is received and displayed. A first item of the result set includes an access mechanism for a specified state of a target application. User selection of the first item causes the access mechanism to open the target application to the specified state.

A method for processing, by a processing entity, of an authorization to implement a service and/or access an item. The method includes: reception, from a requesting device, of a request for implementing a service and/or accessing an item; searching for an indicator of dependency from at least one piece of data of said request for implementation; when an indicator of dependency is present, obtaining an authorization from a verification device to implement said service and/or access said item.

Described are methods, systems and computer readable media for performance logging of complex query operations.

A system for numeric pattern normalization for cryptographic signatures is provided. The system includes a resolving client, and an at least one signature server. The at least one signature server includes at least one processor and non-transitory computer readable media having encoded thereon computer software comprising a set of instructions executable by the at least one processor. The set of instructions may be executed by the signature server to generate a message to be transmitted to a resolving client, normalize the message via numeric pattern normalization, generate a hash value for the normalized message, and generate a cryptographic signature based on the hash value. The signature server may then generate a signed message having the message signed with the cryptographic signature, and transmit the signed message to the resolving client.

Briefly, example methods, apparatuses, and/or articles of manufacture are disclosed that may be implemented, in whole or in part, to facilitate and/or support one or more operations and/or techniques for an electronically connected environment, such as implemented in connection with one or more computing and/or communication networks, devices, and/or protocols, for example.
