Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for content driven selection of a rendering engine. In an embodiment of the invention, a method for or content driven selection of a rendering engine can include retrieving content for display in a content browser executing in memory by a processor of a host computer, mapping at least one directive embedded in the retrieved content to a target rendering engine, selecting the target rendering engine for rendering the content, and passing the content to the selected target rendering engine. In this regard, in an aspect of the embodiment, multiple directives embedded in the retrieved content can be mapped, each to one of a selection of different target rendering engines, and a most often mapped one of the target rendering engines can be selected for rendering the content.

Assignee:

Bandwidth.com, Inc. - Raleigh NC

International Classification:

H04W 36/14

US Classification:

370331

Abstract:

Disclosed are techniques for hosting a communication session in a call server between communication devices. The call server functions as a bridge service between the communication devices joining an original communication link between the first communication device and the call server with a second communication link between the second communication device and the call server. The first communication device includes at least two RF transceivers each capable of communicating with the call server over a separate network. The call server receives a signal from the first communication device indicative of the need to handoff the original communication link to an alternate communication link on an alternate network. The call server establishes the alternate communication link with the first communication device on the alternate network and joins it with the second communication link to maintain the communication session between the communication devices.

International Classification:

H04L 29/06

Abstract:

Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for authenticating a user account with a synchronized content management system are disclosed. A synchronized online content management system may receive a request from a client device to access content in the content management system via a web browser that is running on the client device. The system may identify that a client-side application for the content management system has been installed on the client device and that the client-side application is already logged into a user account with the content management system. The system can cause the web browser to open a local host connection to the client-side application such that the web browser may be able to obtain from the client application some user account identifying information for the user account. The system can then cause the web browser to log into the user account by using the user account identifying information.
