In some examples, a payment service system receives a request to associate a proxy identifier with a user account of a charity. The proxy identifier is individually distinguishable from other proxy identifiers associated with user accounts of other users, and has a syntax including a symbol and a string of one or more characters. The symbol and the string are concatenated such that the symbol appears immediately before the string. The payment service system receives, via an application on a user device of a user, an input associated with the proxy identifier, and performs a database lookup to identify the user account associated with the proxy identifier. Information associated with the user account of the charity is presented via a user interface presented by the application. The user interface enables the user to donate funds from a financial account of the user to the user account of the charity.

A management server issues a token associated with friend network identification information identifying a user of a game provided by an application server, to the application server; receives the token passed from the game to another game on the basis of an operation of the user in a terminal apparatus where the game and the other game are available, from an application server that provides the other game; and manages, in association with each other, the friend network identification information related to the game and friend network identification information related to the other game for which the issued token matches the received token.

The exemplary embodiments include a method to perform, based on at least one of hypertext transport protocol and non-hypertext transport protocol traffic tests failing, sending an hypertext transport protocol message to a subscription remediation server URI that carries a package1 message, receiving an hypertext transport protocol response from the subscription mediation server with a package2 message, and automatically replacing a password with a new value, automatically initiating creation of a new client certificate, or launching a browser to a URI provided in the response to enable user intervention. In addition, to receive an access request from a device, determining whether credentials are valid, and if the credentials are determined valid, sending an access-accept message with a success indication, and if the credentials are determined not valid, sending an access-accept message with a success indication and an indication that access by the device is limited to only a subscription remediation server.

In particular embodiments, a method of transferring money by use of a payment proxy includes receiving a notification of an intent to initiate a monetary transaction in a message entered by a user of a communication platform, identified based on a determination of a particular context associated with content of the message. The method includes parsing the message to identify a unique payment proxy associated with a financial account having a syntax that includes a currency indicator and a string of characters. The method includes identifying a recipient financial account associated with the unique payment proxy. The method includes identifying a sender financial account based on the particular context associated with the content of the user message. The method includes initiating a transfer of a payment amount between the sender financial account and the recipient financial account associated with the unique payment proxy in accordance with the monetary transaction.

A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to proxy communication between different types of networks, such as different types of networks that communicate in accordance with different protocols or different messaging patterns. In the context of a method, communication is supported with a content-centric network having one or more clients that are configured to communicate with publish and subscribe messages. The method also supports communication with one or more nodes configured to communicate in an Internet domain, such as by supporting communication with a CoAP network or a HTTP network. The method also proxies communicating between one or more clients of the content-centric network utilizing the publish and subscribe messages and one or more nodes in the Internet domain using an Internet domain message.

Implementations optimize a browser render process by identifying content neutral embedded items and rendering a web page without fetching the content neutral items. An example method includes identifying a URL pattern common to a plurality of URLs stored in fetch records and selecting a sample of URLs from the plurality. The method also includes, for each URL in the sample, determining whether the URL is optional by generating a first rendering result using content for the URL and a second rendering result without using the content for the URL and calculating a similarity score for the URL by comparing the first rendering result and the second rendering result, the URL being optional when the similarity score is greater than a similarity threshold. The method may also include storing the URL pattern in a data store of optional resource patterns when a majority of the URLs in the sample are optional.

In some examples, a financial transaction is effectuated between first and second users of a payment service system. The payment service system receives, from the first user, a request for a first payment proxy identifier for the first user, and receives from the second user, a request for a second payment proxy identifier for the second user. The payment service system generates the payment proxy identifiers with a currency indicator prefixing one or more alphanumeric characters. The payment proxy identifiers enable the payment service system to identify the financial accounts of the respective users in lieu of payment card mechanisms. The payment service system receives a message from the second user indicating a money transfer request, initiates a transfer of funds from an account of the second user to an account of the first user, and sends an email message to the first user indicating the transfer of funds.

Techniques for providing and consuming web services, including a service library configured to store one or more web services and a host directory connected to service hosts, configured to store data related to the service hosts. The service hosts are a network and adapted to receive and fulfill deployment requests for the web services stored in the service library by instantiating one or more endpoints of one of the web services. A manager is configured to query the host directory and the service library, generate a deployment plan, and transmit deployment requests to the one or more service hosts.

A method, apparatus, media and data structure for rendering a wrapper. The wrapper includes at least one data structure in a format that is renderable by a standard rendering engine and containing censored content comprising source content identification information. When the wrapper is opened by a standard rendering engine, the censored content is rendered. When opened by a trusted rendering engine, the source content is rendered.

The present disclosure describes methods, systems, and computer program products for providing a deployment of applications across a distributed network environment. A computer-implemented method comprises: receiving, at a server and from a client device, a first request including an identifier of a configuration file accessible to the server and one or more identifiers for one or more resources operated by a remote resource server, wherein the resources are requested by an application executed on the client device; in response to the request, retrieving, by the server, one or more tokens associated with the requested resources; transmitting, by the server, a second request to the remote resource server, the second request including the tokens and identifying one or more data processing tasks to be performed by the resources for the application; and receiving, by the server and from the remote resource server, result data that was outputted by the resources executing the data processing tasks.
