US Patent:
7275105, Sep 25, 2007
Filed:
Mar 25, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/105787
Inventors:
Eric D. Bloch - San Francisco CA, US
Max D. Carlson - San Francisco CA, US
Pablo Kang - San Francisco CA, US
Christopher Kimm - San Francisco CA, US
Oliver W. Steele - Brookline MA, US
David T. Temkin - San Francisco CA, US
Assignee:
Laszlo Systems, Inc. - San Mateo CA
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709227, 709203
Abstract:
The present invention provides software developers with the capability to create applications that can access information online and offline without having to program such capabilities into their applications. An application can gather information from various remote data sources via a network or other communication means, and still have access to all or a portion of that information when the computing device running the application is no longer connected to the network. In one embodiment, a client manages information access, caching and synchronization for the application. When connected, information accessed is stored in a local data store on (or near) the computing device. When disconnected, requests are run against the local data store instead of the remote data source. When reconnected, information is synchronized between the local data store and the remote data source.

Evaluating Expressions In A Software Environment

US Patent:
7340724, Mar 4, 2008
Filed:
Aug 15, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/642360
Inventors:
Adam G. Wolff - San Francisco CA, US
David T. Temkin - San Francisco CA, US
Oliver W. Steele - Brookline MA, US
P. Tucker Withington - Plymouth MA, US
Henry B. Minsky - Newtonville MA, US
Assignee:
Laszlo Systems, Inc. - San Mateo CA
International Classification:
G06F 9/44
US Classification:
717117, 717114, 717141
Abstract:
Code for a program is received by a compiler (or other entity). The code includes an expression for a variable and a marker that specifies when the expressions should be evaluated during execution of the program. Example markers can indicate that an expression should be evaluated immediately, once or always. Additional functionality is provided to the code in order to evaluate the expression at the specified time during execution of the program. If the expression is to be evaluated always, then the expression will likely be dependent on a item that can change. Functionality is provided that evaluates the expression when the item changes so that the variable can be updated.

US Patent:
7584462, Sep 1, 2009
Filed:
Nov 24, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/720726
Inventors:
Adam G. Wolff - San Francisco CA, US
Oliver W. Steele - Brookline MA, US
David T. Temkin - San Francisco CA, US
P. Tucker Withington - Plymouth MA, US
Assignee:
Laszlo Systems, Inc. - San Francisco CA
International Classification:
G06F 9/45
US Classification:
717154, 717140, 717151
Abstract:
A method for decreasing a computer application's start-up time.

US Patent:
7752256, Jul 6, 2010
Filed:
Mar 5, 2002

10/092010
Inventors:
Eric D. Bloch - San Francisco CA, US
Max D. Carlson - San Francisco CA, US
Christopher Kimm - San Francisco CA, US
James B. Simister - San Francisco CA, US

Assignee:
Laszlo Systems, Inc. - San Mateo CA
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709203
Abstract:
A server is disclosed that presents content to a client. The server receives a request for particular content. In response to the request, the server accesses data and/or code that describes the particular content. The server compiles that code and/or data to create executable code, and transmits the executable code to the client for execution on the client. In one embodiment, the code describing the particular content is a mark-up language description. In various implementations, the executable code includes a user interface that provides access to the requested content.
