Conversion Of Structured Documents

View page
US Patent:
7581177, Aug 25, 2009
Filed:
Aug 1, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/632437
Inventors:
Laurent Mollicone - Kirkland WA, US
Andrew P. Begun - Redmond WA, US
Ned B. Friend - Seattle WA, US
Stephen J. Mooney - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 17/00
US Classification:
715243, 715248
Abstract:
An upgrade module is used to convert arbitrary XML documents into a form compatible with the processing expectations of a particular processing mechanism. In one implementation, the upgrade module can be used to convert XML documents pertaining to an earlier version of the processing mechanism to a form compatible with a later version of the processing mechanism. The processing mechanism can pertain to a solution module that transforms an input XML document into an electronic form. The upgrade module can be automatically generated when a user makes changes to the electronic form in a manner that affects the schema of the electronic form, or which affects other aspects of the electronic form. The upgrade module can be implemented as an Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation (XSLT) file.

Incrementally Designing Electronic Forms And Hierarchical Schemas

View page
US Patent:
8117552, Feb 14, 2012
Filed:
Dec 5, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/567140
Inventors:
Jean D. Paoli - Kirkland WA, US
Laurent Mollicone - Kirkland WA, US
Ned B. Friend - Seattle WA, US
Matthew J. Kotler - Kenmore WA, US
Thomas R. Lawrence - Seattle WA, US
Shuk-Yan Lai - Redmond WA, US
Sharma K. Hendel - Seattle WA, US
Jason Whitmarsh - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 3/00
G09G 5/00
US Classification:
715763, 715780
Abstract:
A system and method that enables a designer to build electronic forms and corresponding hierarchical schemas are described. Displays of hierarchical schemas, electronic forms, and components used to build the hierarchical schemas and electronic forms are provided to the designer. The designer selects components and arranges them on a display to visually build an electronic form. As the form is built, the corresponding hierarchical schema is incrementally updated to reflect changes made to the electronic form.

View page
US Patent:
8370767, Feb 5, 2013
Filed:
Jun 22, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/820676
Inventors:
Matthew J. Kotler - Sammamish WA, US
Ned B. Friend - Seattle WA, US
Erez Kikin-Gil - Redmond WA, US
Charles W. Parker - Sammamish WA, US
Jesse Clay Satterfield - Seattle WA, US
Igor Zaika - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 3/048
G06F 7/00
US Classification:
715810, 715205, 715256, 715739, 715763, 715780, 707810
Abstract:
A list authoring surface (LAS) is provided that includes a lightweight user interface component for entering, displaying, manipulating, and providing reminders for one or more tasks that takes the place of hand-written notes, scraps of paper, or “sticky” notes. The list authoring surface may be deployed across a multitude of software applications and may be readily accessed anywhere on a stationary or mobile desktop or display screen. Information may be manually or automatically entered into the list authoring surface user interface. An event timeline that uses a “fuzzy” reminder method allows for reminders to be associated with tasks where some tasks must be accomplished or must occur at hard dates/times, but where other tasks may be accomplished or may occur during soft or “fuzzy” date/time ranges.

US Patent:
8375320, Feb 12, 2013
Filed:
Jun 22, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/820914
Inventors:
Matthew J. Kotler - Sammamish WA, US
Ned B. Friend - Seattle WA, US
Erez Kikin-Gil - Redmond WA, US
Charles W. Park - Sammamish WA, US
Jesse Clay Satterfield - Seattle WA, US
Igor Zaika - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Microsoft Corporation - Redmond WA
International Classification:
G06F 3/048

US Classification:
715772, 715205, 715234, 715764, 709206, 709223
Abstract:
A triggering mechanism for generating task reminders based on contextual information associated with the tasks is provided. Contextual information may be extracted from a variety of sources and may be related to one or more tasks. Based on the contextual information, task reminders may be generated and may be presented in a manner that makes the task reminders more useful to an end user.

Abstract:
An electronic personal assistant that uses task information to obtain task performance assistance and help content is provided. Tasks from an electronic tasks application may be utilized by the personal assistant application to search a variety of information sources for task performance functionality and help content related to the tasks. The personal assistant may provide functionality to help a user actually perform a given task. Alternatively, once help content is obtained, a new task may be generated or the related task may be modified to provide the help content or to provide a link to the help content. The personal assistant application may provide the help content in a separate user interface or cause an application from which the help content is obtained to be launched.
