Plug-ins have traditionally been part of the browser environment for such tasks as watching Flash movies or viewing PDF documents. A different mechanism has evolved in Firefox� (a web browser supported by the Mozilla Foundation) and this mechanism is an extension manager. Extensions are packages of software code that can be installed into a Firefox� browser or other browser that add a new feature to the browser, extend existing functionality, modify a visual theme, and so on. Using extensions, new and unique browser configurations can be created.
The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of the specification, illustrate various example systems, methods, and other example embodiments of various aspects of the invention. It will be appreciated that the illustrated element boundaries (e.g., boxes, groups of boxes, or other shapes) in the figures represent one example of the boundaries. One of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that one element may be designed as multiple elements or that multiple elements may be designed as one element. An element shown as an internal component of another element may be implemented as an external component and vice versa. Furthermore, elements may not be drawn to scale.
In one embodiment, an enterprise-ready web browser is created via a productivity pack delivered as a browser extension. Using web browser extension management mechanisms, the browser extension described herein adds features and tools to a base web browser that make an end-user more productive as they work with web-based sites and applications. These enhancements make the browser enterprise-ready, that is to say better equipped to function with enterprise applications.
In one example, the present extension provides locally constructed components that talk to remote web services. For example, if the web services include Oracle application services, the extension can be designed and pre-configured to communicate to the Oracle application services layer. In general, the extension would be designed for a particular web-based enterprise application in mind and would be delivered to clients that wished to interact with the enterprise application. Thus in one embodiment, an enterprise application can transmit a customized browser extension to a user where the extension makes the browser enterprise-ready.
In one embodiment, the extension can permit a user to identify him/herself to the application services layer via an authentication routine (e.g. see
The following includes definitions of selected terms employed herein. The definitions include various examples and/or forms of components that fall within the scope of a term and that may be used for implementation. The examples are not intended to be limiting. Both singular and plural forms of terms may be within the definitions.
As used in this application, the term �computer component� refers to a computer-related entity, either hardware, firmware, software, a combination thereof, or software in execution. For example, a computer component can be, but is not limited to being, a process running on a processor, a processor, an object, an executable, a thread of execution, a program, and a computer. By way of illustration, both an application running on a server and the server can be computer components. One or more computer components can reside within a process and/or thread of execution and a computer component can be localized on one computer and/or distributed between two or more computers.
�Computer communication�, as used herein, refers to a communication between two or more computing devices (e.g., computer, personal digital assistant, cellular telephone, network device) and can be, for example, a network transfer, a file transfer, an applet transfer, an email, a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) transfer, and so on. A computer communication can occur across, for example, a wireless system (e.g., IEEE 802.11), an Ethernet system (e.g., IEEE 802.3), a token ring system (e.g., IEEE 802.5), a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), a point-to-point system, a circuit switching system, a packet switching system, and so on.
�Computer-readable medium�, as used herein, refers to a medium that participates in directly or indirectly providing signals, instructions and/or data. A computer-readable medium may take forms, including, but not limited to, non-volatile media, volatile media, and transmission media. Non-volatile media may include, for example, optical or magnetic disks and so on. Volatile media may include, for example, semiconductor memories, dynamic memory and the like. Common forms of a computer-readable medium include, but are not limited to, a floppy disk, a flexible disk, a hard disk, a magnetic tape, other magnetic medium, a CD-ROM, other optical medium, punch cards, paper tape, other physical medium with patterns of holes, a RAM, a ROM, an EPROM, a FLASH-EPROM, or other memory chip or card, a memory stick, digital signals, and other media from which a computer, a processor or other electronic device can read. Signals used to propagate instructions or other software over a network, like the Internet, can be considered a �computer-readable medium.�
�Logic�, as used herein, includes but is not limited to hardware, firmware, software and/or combinations of each to perform a function(s) or an action(s), and/or to cause a function or action from another logic, method, and/or system. For example, based on a desired application or needs, logic may include a software controlled microprocessor, discrete logic like an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC), an analog circuit, a digital circuit, a programmed logic device, a memory device containing instructions, or the like. Logic may include one or more gates, combinations of gates, or other circuit components. Logic may also be fully embodied as software. Where multiple logical logics are described, it may be possible to incorporate the multiple logical logics into one physical logic. Similarly, where a single logical logic is described, it may be possible to distribute that single logical logic between multiple physical logics.
An �operable connection�, or a connection by which entities are �operably connected�, is one in which signals, physical communications, and/or logical communications may be sent and/or received. Typically, an operable connection includes a physical interface, an electrical interface, and/or a data interface, but it is to be noted that an operable connection may include differing combinations of these or other types of connections sufficient to allow operable control. For example, two entities can be operably connected by being able to communicate signals to each other directly or through one or more intermediate entities like a processor, operating system, a logic, software, or other entity. Logical and/or physical communication channels can be used to create an operable connection.
�Signal�, as used herein, includes but is not limited to one or more electrical or optical signals, analog or digital signals, data, one or more computer or processor instructions, messages, a bit or bit stream, or other means that can be received, transmitted and/or detected.
�Software�, as used herein, includes but is not limited to, one or more computer or processor instructions that can be read, interpreted, compiled, and/or executed and that cause a computer, processor, or other electronic device to perform functions, actions and/or behave in a desired manner. The instructions may be embodied in various forms like routines, algorithms, modules, methods, threads, and/or programs including separate applications or code from dynamically linked libraries. Software may also be implemented in a variety of executable and/or loadable forms including, but not limited to, a stand-alone program, a function call (local and/or remote), a servelet, an applet, instructions stored in a memory, part of an operating system or other types of executable instructions. It will be appreciated by one of ordinary skill in the art that the form of software may be dependent on, for example, requirements of a desired application, the environment in which it runs, and/or the desires of a designer/programmer or the like. It will also be appreciated that computer-readable and/or executable instructions can be located in one logic and/or distributed between two or more communicating, co-operating, and/or parallel processing logics and thus can be loaded and/or executed in serial, parallel, massively parallel and other manners.
Suitable software for implementing the various components of the example systems and methods described herein include programming languages and tools like Java, Javascript, markup languages, Pascal, C#, C++, C, CGI, Perl, SQL, APIs, SDKs, assembly, firmware, microcode, and/or other languages and tools. Software, whether an entire system or a component of a system, may be embodied as an article of manufacture and maintained or provided as part of a computer-readable medium as defined previously. Another form of the software may include signals that transmit program code of the software to a recipient over a network or other communication medium. Thus, in one example, a computer-readable medium has a form of signals that represent the software/firmware as it is downloaded from a web server to a user. In another example, the computer-readable medium has a form of the software/firmware as it is maintained on the web server. Other forms may also be used.
�User�, as used herein, includes but is not limited to one or more persons, software components, computers or other devices, or combinations of these.
Some portions of the detailed descriptions that follow are presented in terms of algorithms and symbolic representations of operations on data bits within a memory. These algorithmic descriptions and representations are the means used by those skilled in the art to convey the substance of their work to others. An algorithm is here, and generally, conceived to be a sequence of operations that produce a result. The operations may include physical transformations of physical quantities (e.g. change data values, change states of a component, etc). Usually, though not necessarily, the physical quantities take the form of electrical or magnetic signals capable of being stored, transferred, combined, compared, and otherwise manipulated in a logic and the like.
It has proven convenient at times, principally for reasons of common usage, to refer to these signals as bits, values, elements, symbols, characters, terms, numbers, or the like. It should be borne in mind, however, that these and similar terms are to be associated with the appropriate physical quantities and are merely convenient labels applied to these quantities. Unless specifically stated otherwise, it is appreciated that throughout the description, terms like processing, transmitting, retrieving, communicating, calculating, determining, displaying, or the like, refer to actions and processes of a computer system, logic, processor, or similar electronic device that manipulates and transforms data represented as physical (electronic) quantities.
In one embodiment, the browser technology discussed herein will be described with reference to the Mozilla Firefox browser and its extension technology, which includes XUL. Of course, other types of mechanisms can be used to implement and install the present features into other types of browsers based on their applicable technologies. This will be readily understood by those of ordinary skill in the art.
�XUL� (XML User-interface Language) is a cross-platform language for describing user interfaces of applications. XUL (pronounced zool) was created to make development of the Mozilla browser easier and faster. XUL is an XML language (Extensible Markup Language) so all features available to XML are also available to XUL. There are several ways that XUL applications are created. In the Firefox browser, an extension adds functionality to the browser itself, often in the form of extra toolbars, context menus, or user interface (UI) to customize the browser UI. This is accomplished by using a feature of XUL called an overlay, which allows the UI provided from one source, in this case the Firefox browser, to be merged together with the UI from the extension. Extensions may also be applied to other Mozilla based products such as Thunderbird.
The borders of a web browser window, which include the window frames, menus, toolbars and scroll bars are referred to as the browser chrome. In order to design a page that does not require scrolling by the user, the browser chrome should be taken into consideration. For example, many web pages are designed to fit a resolution 800 pixels across. Since the window frames and scroll bar take up approximately 40 pixels, the page is often sized to 760 pixels across or less.
Content from remote sources, regardless or whether they are HTML or XUL or another document type, are limited for security reasons in the type of operations they can perform. For this reason, Mozilla provides a method of installing content locally and registering the installed files as part of its chrome system. This allows a special URL form to be used called a chrome URL. By accessing a file using a chrome URL, the files receive elevated privileges to access local files, access preferences and bookmarks and perform other privileged operations. Typically, web pages do not get these privileges, unless they are signed with a digital certificate and the user has granted permission to perform these operations.
The present extension adds features to a Firefox browser or other browser to give it additional functionality. The extension can add productivity tools, which are viewed as augmentations, so the tools and a user's browser can work with selected web sites, web services, or selected third party applications to improve customer productivity. In one embodiment, the present browser extension provides a toolbar/sidebar combination that can improve user productivity and make the browser enterprise ready. In another example, a window previewing feature is provided that allows the user to look into another window and get at its content.
With reference to
From the server-side, when a user visits the website, the server 110 delivers web pages with functionality inherent in the web pages but also a layer is added, being a browser extension 115. For example, an enterprise-based web application 120 can transmit a customized browser extension 115 including toolbar logic 125 and sidebar logic 130 to the client device 100. The extension 115 provides code that creates and displays a toolbar and sidebar that become part of the browser 105. Tools provided by the sidebar can improve the interface with the enterprise-based web application 120 and thus can improve productivity. This will be described in more detail below.
The browser extension 115 is software code (or other forms of logic) that extends the capability and functionality of the browser 105 once installed in the browser 105 (or installed to function with the browser 105). For example, the extension 115 becomes resident software code in the browser rather than being part of a web page (e.g. extension is not part of web page content that is downloaded and displayed). As such, the browser extension 115 can be selectively installed into or uninstalled from the browser 105. Furthermore since the extension 115 is designed for the enterprise application 120 of the website, the extension 115 provides the client browser 105 with an improved interface with the website. The extension 115 augments the user's web browser 105 with a new functionality that it did not possess so that users can be more productive when interacting with the enterprise application 120.
Once the extension 115 is installed, it becomes part of the browser 105 and is ready to function when the browser 105 is launched. As summarized previously, in one embodiment the extension creates a toolbar and sidebar combination that is resident in the browser but separate from the web pages and provides for the display of multiple content panes that can communicate with enterprise applications.
In one embodiment, the browser extension 115 includes toolbar logic 125 that is configured to create and display a toolbar with one or more icons on the display screen 101 of the client device 100. An icon can be configured to initiate an associated command (e.g. open/close a window, open/close a menu, initiate a task, etc.).
The browser extension 115 also includes sidebar logic 130 that is configured to perform a number of features. For example, it can communicate with a remote web service (e.g. from the enterprise application 120) to determine a group of sidebar content to display on a display screen based on a rule, and communicate with the remote web service to retrieve the group of sidebar content. The sidebar logic 130 can also display a group of sidebar windows on the display screen 101 based on the retrieved group of sidebar content. In one example, the retrieved sidebar content can include one or more different types of content and the sidebar logic 130 is configured to display a different sidebar window for containing each different type of content. Thus, a particular type of sidebar content would be displayed in an associated sidebar window that is designated for the particular type of content.
For example, if the retrieved sidebar content includes �news� content, then a �news� sidebar window would be displayed to contain the �news� content. If no �news� content was received, then the �news� sidebar window would not be displayed. Thus, the sidebar logic can dynamically determine what type of sidebar windows are needed based on the types of sidebar content received. In one embodiment, the types of sidebar content received can be based on a user profile that designates user-specific content for particular users. The group of sidebar windows displayed are displayed in combination with the toolbar. An example toolbar and sidebar combination is illustrated in
The sidebar logic 130 can also configure one or more of the sidebar windows to communicate to one or more remote web services from the enterprise application 120 based on the sidebar content displayed therein. Using the previous example of the �news� sidebar window, communications can be established with a particular remote web service that retrieves and updates �news� content and transmits the content to the sidebar window. Other communications can also be established for retrieving other types of content from other web services.
It will be appreciated that in one embodiment the browser extension 115 is embodied as processor readable instructions on a computer-readable medium. Also, particular software code, instructions or functionality associated with the toolbar logic 125 and the sidebar logic 130 can be combined or separated as desired. They are described as separate elements herein for ease of explanation.
When the browser 105 is launched/executed, the browser detects available extensions and the extensions are executed. In this case, the web enterprise browser extension 115 is executed, which includes the toolbar logic 125 and sidebar logic 130. With reference to
When a user inputs his/her user credentials/information, the extension 115 transmits the credentials to the web service 120 where it verifies/authenticates that the user has rights to the system. The web service 120 can also determine if a user profile has been associated with the user credentials. In one example, the user information is used with one or more rules to determine user-specific sidebar content that corresponds to the user information and/or is authorized to be accessed.
If the credentials are valid and authenticated properly, the web service returns a positive notice and applies the user's rights to different pieces of content. The user's rights can be pre-determined in the user's profile. When the extension 115 receives notification that the user is logged in, it can begin a query against the service or against the content using those credentials. The user-specific sidebar content is then retrieved as the group of sidebar content for this particular user. When the content is received, the sidebar logic 130 can render the content into a corresponding sidebar pane, which can be based upon the user's preference for viewing that content (e.g. certain sidebar panes collapsed or expanded).
For example in a tool bar, the extension can fetch menu content from the server and display a menu icon in the toolbar (e.g. �central menu� icon 350 shown in the toolbar 305 in
The extension 115 can also at the same time substantiate each piece of sidebar content as an icon in the toolbar so that there is synchronicity between the toolbar and sidebar. This is referred to as toolbar-sidebar replication. Thus for each different sidebar window pane that is displayed, an icon is created and displayed in the toolbar so that the icons in the toolbar are synchronized with the sidebar window panes. A selected icon that is created for a selected sidebar window pane is further associated to function with the selected sidebar window pane. An example toolbar 305 and sidebar 310 are shown in
When searching for sidebar content, each element on the extension (e.g. each sidebar content pane that has been created) can be configured to transmit a request to a remote web service 120 associated with the content pane to determine what content is to be displayed. It will be appreciated that one portion of logic from the extension can be implemented to control the communication between the sidebar panes and its associated web service rather than having each pane do it separately. In another embodiment, the web service can automatically transmit sidebar content as designated by a rule and/or the user's profile. The extension 115 can then determine what types of content is received and display the corresponding sidebar window panes. The content is then rendered as RDF (Resource Description Framework) coming back from the web service in the XUL containers that define the content pane. RDF is a format that is implemented by XUL and is used to store data resources. Of course, other formats can be used based on the particular protocols used.
With Reference to
In the illustrated embodiment, the example sidebar 310 includes a search pane 315, a presence pane 320, a work list pane 325, a news pane 330, and a �files online� pane 335. In one embodiment, the number and types of panes that are display can be determined based upon a user's access rights, profile information, and/or other types of rules as described previously. Thus, the type of sidebar content that is received determines the particular sidebar window panes that are created and displayed.
Based on profile information or other desired rules, the sidebar 310 will pull back or retrieve a different set of sidebar information and create different sidebar panes for different users. For example, there may be fewer panes, or there may be more panes depending on what a user has the right to see. In this manner, one computer terminal and one browser can allow two or more users to log-in to a web service and get different content and get a different experience based on their role and/or profile information. In one embodiment, the browser extension 115 is configured to display the toolbar 305 and the group of sidebar windows 310 separate from a web page window 340 configured to display web page content by the web browser 300.
In another embodiment, the sidebar 310 is configured to function like an accordion. For example, the sidebar is configured to allow a user to manage the multiple sidebar panes by selectively collapsing and expanding the panes. The user can manipulate the panes based on what is important to the user at a particular point in time. Manipulating the panes includes collapsing some regions if they want to see more information from another region. The extension 115 is coded to provide the manipulation functions of panes.
In other words, the accordion functionality provides an ability to display more than one content instance in a space so it will share content instances in one space and allow the user to determine how much content is shown in any one content instance based on their task. Functions include both expanding and collapsing of the panes. So another way to view the sidebar 310 is a means to deliver large amounts of data in a small area where the user can determine the best way to use the data. The multiple panes of the sidebar 310 allow multiple content instances to be displayed at once. Thus, the sidebar is configured as a place where multiple content containers can be exposed simultaneously and be filled with content, for example, based on a rule. In another example, a floating sidebar mode can be provided where the sidebar 310 is created and displayed using a separate dedicated browser window separate from the browser window 300.
To communicate to a web service, a XUL template is provided that is bound to a web service on a server. The XUL template communicates and responds to the web service on the server-side to request and determine content names, content information, or other content for each sidebar pane. The Firefox and Mozilla XUL framework can be used as the interface mechanism to retrieve sidebar content and create the accordion functions with desired behaviors (e.g. expanding and collapsing the panes).
In a Firefox implementation, displayed content is XUL-based. Firefox allows code to determine the display properties of elements (e.g. location and image of icons) and, when a user clicks an icon, the code can associate a selected action like opening up a menu. The communication between the extension 115 and the browser 105 can be implemented through XUL. XUL has a mechanism that provides communication with remote web services and this allows content for the sidebar panes to be received from the remote web services 120. On the remote services side, the services can be configured to return the content in the format of RDFs (Resource Description Framework) that XUL expects and can understand. Of course, other formats can be used.
Example methods may be better appreciated with reference to flow diagrams. For example,
It will be appreciated that the illustrated elements denote �processing blocks� that may be implemented in logic. In one example, the processing blocks may represent executable instructions that cause a computer, processor, and/or logic device to respond, to perform an action(s), to change states, and/or to make decisions. Thus, the described methodologies can be implemented as processor executable instructions and/or operations provided by a computer-readable medium. In another example, the processing blocks may represent functions and/or actions performed by a computing device when executing the instructions. The diagram, as well as the other illustrated diagrams, are not intended to limit the implementation of the described examples. Rather, the diagrams illustrate functional information one skilled in the art could use to design, program, and generate software, or use a combination of hardware and software to perform the illustrated processing.
With reference to
Once logged-in, the web service is queried for applicable sidebar content based on the user credentials or based on default content. Content that has been authorized or predefined for the user is retrieved. Based on the type of content received, corresponding sidebar panes are created and displayed in the browser window. The content for each pane is received from the server and rendered in the appropriate sidebar pane (block 425) (see also
With reference to
The method 500 can initiate, for example, after a web browser application is launched. The method can include displaying a web browser window on a display screen including a web page window for displaying web page content (block 505). Communication can be established with a pre-determined remote web service from an enterprise application to retrieve sidebar content (block 510). One or more sidebar window panes for which the sidebar content is retrieved can then be displayed on the display screen (block 515). As previously mentioned, a different sidebar window can be displayed for each different type of sidebar content received. The retrieved sidebar content is then displayed in the corresponding sidebar window panes (block 520). The method 500 can also display, on the display screen, a toolbar with one or more icons where an icon is configured to initiate a command for an associated sidebar window pane (block 525).
In another embodiment of the method 500, the following features can be optionally performed. For example, a communication connection or path can be established between the browser for each of the sidebar window panes and one or more remote web services from an enterprise application based on the sidebar content displayed therein. In this manner, content for a particular sidebar pane can be retrieved and updated automatically.
Also, the retrieved sidebar content can be pre-designated for a user based on, for example, the user's profile and/or access rights as described previously. In this regard, the method can transmit user identification data to the remote web service that causes the remote web service to: determine a user profile associated with the user identification data, and transmit user-specific sidebar content associated with the user profile. The user-specific sidebar content would then be received by the computing device for display in one or more sidebar window panes.
In another embodiment of the method 500, where icons from the toolbar are configured to initiate a command for an associated sidebar window pane, the icon can be configured to cause a display option of the associated sidebar window pane to change values. For example, when an icon associated with a �news� pane is selected, the display of the �news� pane can change such as by displaying the pane larger, smaller, expanded, collapsed, and so on.
Another associated command can be to display a preview pane that shows the content of the �news� pane or other window. For example,
In another example, the method 500 can communicate with a web site to retrieve and display web page content within the browser window. Furthermore, the web site can be a different entity from the remote web service and the web page content would be distinct from the retrieved sidebar content. Thus, the sidebar panes can communicate with an enterprise application and its remote web services that may be part of a different site than the web sites that are being browsed.
In one embodiment (based on a Firefox implementation), when a client device is browsing a website, the website may include one or more links relating to available extensions. The user may click or otherwise select the link, which would map to a URL representing the extension's physical location. A download process can then be initiated that may include the client's browser receiving notification from the server that an extension is available to be installed. It knows this, for example, via the MIME type and extension type called XPI (Cross Platform Installable File). The extension is delivered as a package, an XPI package in the form of a zip file. Using the framework that is built into Firefox, the extension is placed in the user's profile folder and an install process begins. After completing the installation, the user would restart the browser to receive the extension.
When the browser is launched, as part of the launching the browser detects available extensions and it binds the extensions to existing tool objects that are already present in the browser. For example, the toolbar is an object, which as an attachment, can be bound to many places within the browser. The extension determines places where the toolbar can be bound to and attaches itself to them. In one example, the toolbar logic of the extension determines a location to the left of the browser tag, the browser objects, and inserts the toolbar there. The sidebar logic of the extension can determine where the toolbar has just been placed and inserts the sidebar based on that location. So the toolbar and sidebar can be adjacent and relate to one another when displayed. Of course, other display formats or options can be used.
Next, the run-time code that handles the behaviors is substantiated and the extension determines that the next step is a pre-login state so a login window is displayed. One example of a login window 200 is illustrated in
In another embodiment, the extension can include an options panel as an additional feature. For example, as part of the installed extension there can be an options panel which enables the user to change the mode of the toolbar/sidebar combination. The options panel can be configured to allow the user to change how the extension behaves. The options panel can be provided during installation, during execution of the browser, intermittently, or at other selected times.
With the present extension, a user interface is provided that creates a sidebar/toolbar combination that can communicate with remote web services and enterprise applications. The extension becomes resident in the browser rather than being part of or embedded in the web page(s) transmitted by the web service. Thus, an enterprise-based web application can transmit a customized extension to a user, which creates a sidebar that becomes part of the user's browser. The tools provided by the sidebar can improve the interface with the enterprise-based web application and thus convert the browser to be enterprise-ready and can improve productivity.
Being part of the browser, the extension provides a user (e.g. a customer of a web site or web application) with tools accessible to them no matter what web page they are on. As described, the tools can include the main menu, the search capability, the session preview and so on. The extension allows a user to perform work within the browser and augments the browser. The extension does not try to replace the browser in order for the user to perform enterprise application work with an enterprise application.
In another embodiment the computing device 800 includes the web browser 825 for locating and displaying web pages from a network. The computing device 800 includes a toolbar logic 826 to create and display a toolbar with icons for initiating an associated command, and sidebar logic 827 to create and display multiple window panes in combination with the toolbar on the display screen 850. Each of the window panes can have associated code for communicating with a remote web service from an enterprise application to retrieve content from the enterprise application and display the content in the associated window pane. The multiple window panes can be displayed simultaneously within the web browser.
Generally describing an example configuration of the computer 800, the processor 805 can be a variety of various processors including dual microprocessor and other multi-processor architectures. The memory 810 can include volatile memory and/or non-volatile memory. The non-volatile memory can include, but is not limited to, ROM, PROM, EPROM, EEPROM, and the like. Volatile memory can include, for example, RAM, synchronous RAM (SRAM), dynamic RAM (DRAM), synchronous DRAM (SDRAM), double data rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM), and direct RAM bus RAM (DRRAM).
A disk 830 may be operably connected to the computer 800 via, for example, an input/output interface (e.g., card, device) 835 and the input/output port 815, or can be an internal component. The disk 830 can include, but is not limited to, devices like a magnetic disk drive, a solid state disk drive, a floppy disk drive, a tape drive, a Zip drive, a flash memory card, and/or a memory stick. Furthermore, the disk 830 can include optical drives like a CD-ROM, a CD recordable drive (CD-R drive), a CD rewriteable drive (CD-RW drive), and/or a digital video ROM drive (DVD ROM). The memory 810 can store processes 840 and/or data 845, for example. The disk 830 and/or memory 810 can store an operating system that controls and allocates resources of the computer 800.
The bus 820 can be a single internal bus interconnect architecture and/or other bus or mesh architectures. While a single bus is illustrated, it is to be appreciated that computer 800 may communicate with various devices, logics, and peripherals using other busses that are not illustrated (e.g., PCIE, SATA, Infiniband, 1394, USB, Ethernet). The bus 820 can be of a variety of types including, but not limited to, a memory bus or memory controller, a peripheral bus or external bus, a crossbar switch, and/or a local bus. The local bus can be of varieties including, but not limited to, an industrial standard architecture (ISA) bus, a microchannel architecture (MSA) bus, an extended ISA (EISA) bus, a peripheral component interconnect (PCI) bus, a universal serial (USB) bus, and a small computer systems interface (SCSI) bus.
The computer 800 may interact with input/output devices via i/o interfaces 835 and input/output ports 815. Input/output devices can include, but are not limited to, a keyboard, a microphone, a pointing and selection device, cameras, video cards, the disk 830, a display screen 850, network devices 855, and the like. The input/output ports 815 can include but are not limited to, serial ports, parallel ports, and USB ports.
The computer 800 can operate in a network environment and thus may be connected to the network devices 855 via the I/O interfaces 835, and/or the I/O ports 815. Through the network devices 855, the computer 800 may interact with a network. Through the network, the computer 800 may be logically connected to remote computers. The networks with which the computer 800 may interact include, but are not limited to, a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN), and other networks. The network devices 855 can connect to LAN technologies including, but not limited to, fiber distributed data interface (FDDI), copper distributed data interface (CDDI), Ethernet (IEEE 802.3), token ring (IEEE 802.5), wireless computer communication (IEEE 802.11), Bluetooth (IEEE 802.15.1), and the like. Similarly, the network devices 855 can connect to WAN technologies including, but not limited to, point to point links, circuit switching networks like integrated services digital networks (ISDN), packet switching networks, and digital subscriber lines (DSL).
While example systems, methods, and so on have been illustrated by describing examples, and while the examples have been described in considerable detail, it is not the intention of the applicants to restrict or in any way limit the scope of the appended claims to such detail. It is, of course, not possible to describe every conceivable combination of components or methodologies for purposes of describing the systems, methods, and so on described herein. Additional advantages and modifications will readily appear to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the invention is not limited to the specific details, the representative apparatus, and illustrative examples shown and described. Thus, this application is intended to embrace alterations, modifications, and variations that fall within the scope of the appended claims. Furthermore, the preceding description is not meant to limit the scope of the invention. Rather, the scope of the invention is to be determined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
To the extent that the term �includes� or �including� is employed in the detailed description or the claims, it is intended to be inclusive in a manner similar to the term �comprising� as that term is interpreted when employed as a transitional word in a claim. Furthermore, to the extent that the term �or� is employed in the detailed description or claims (e.g., A or B) it is intended to mean �A or B or both�. When the applicants intend to indicate �only A or B but not both� then the term �only A or B but not both� will be employed. Thus, use of the term �or� herein is the inclusive, and not the exclusive use. See, Bryan A. Garner, A Dictionary of Modern Legal Usage 624 (2d. Ed. 1995).

Yahoo, which needs to turn a buck as well as focus on its own issues, is spinning out its Hadoop unit into an independent new company co-funded by Benchmark Capital called Hortonworks after the Dr. Seuss character Horton the Elephant.
It's a nice whimsical touch considering Hadoop is really a stuffed elephant who had his identity stolen, which may explain why the code is sometimes cranky.
Hortonworks will compete against other Hadoop commercializers like Cloudera, IBM, newcomer MapR and its buddy EMC and figures to accelerate Hadoop's adoption by making the code "more robust and easier to install, manage and use for enterprises and technology vendors."
It talks of Hadoop becoming the "de facto platform for managing and analyzing Big Data" and anticipates that more than half the world's data will be stored in Apache Hadoop in five years.
Since Yahoo, inspired by Google's MapReduce model, developed Hadoop, Hortonworks promises to be staffed with many of the key architects and core contributors to the open source Apache Hadoop project, "the same team," it says, "that pioneered Apache Hadoop and delivered every stable release from 0.1 to the most current release." Hortonworks can obviously out-credential its rivals.
Figure it's starting with around 25 people and means to hire.
Eric Baldeschwieler, formerly VP of software engineering for the Hadoop team at Yahoo, has been named CEO of Hortonworks. Rob Bearden, now at Benchmark but previously COO of both SpringSource and JBoss, two successful (and ultimately acquired) commercial open source companies, will be handling the business side as COO again.
Yahoo and Benchmark, VC to Red Hat, MySQL, SpringSource, Twitter and eBay, didn't disclose how much money they're stuffing in the place or who owns what.
Yahoo, which will reportedly be a "strategic partner" of Hortonworks, says it intends to continue its internal investment in the key widgetry since Hadoop is now behind every click on Yahoo, currently processing five billion jobs a month on 42,000 servers handling its content and advertising.
Hortonworks means to sell subscriptions, training, certification and support. It says it "may build applications or tools in the future that are only available to paying customers," but it's committed to all core code being open source. It says it will donate all source code back to Apache. Apparently it means to design solutions for specific industries.
It says reference implementations should come from Apache and that Hortonworks "will do its development in public, releasing early and often via Apache."
It will "continue to be a driving force behind Apache Hadoop and major contributors to core projects including Hadoop Core, MapReduce, Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS), ZooKeeper and Pig."
Evidently it figures to make breakthroughs in performance, availability, scalability, security and integration and "work with the community to add new capabilities to open source including administration and monitoring."
Hadoop is used by companies like Facebook, eBay and Netflix.

Bought a home in 2014.
Crystal was very professional, and went above and beyond to make our home search as seamless and stress free as possible.

Sold a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $225K in Windermere, FL.
I would highly recommend Crystal Jenkins to anyone who is looking to short sale their home. She explained the short sale process to me step by step as well as sent email updates as the short sale progressed. She is extremely professional and very accessible. She has a positive attitude and is skilled at managing the ups and downs of the short sale process. Additionally, her understanding of the market, negotiating with the buyer's and working with the bank, were critical in helping me to successfully complete the short sale process

Bought a home in 2013.
My wife and I met Crystal through an inquiry we did on Zillow... In our first phone conversation, I realized that Crystal was someone I could trust to help us purchase our first home. Considering we were relocating from Philadephia, Crystal had to be our eyes in physically viewing the properties that we selected from the internet. She always answered the phone and kept a positive attitude throughout our home purchase process... She will be highly recommended to anyone I know who is looking to buy and sell a home.

The experience that I had with Crystal was so amazing. She made me feel so comfortable from the moment we met. Crystal handled everything in such a professional way. During that time I had so many questions for her and she took the time to explain everything that would be taking place during the sale of my home. I am so happy that she took good care of me during this time and I have shared this experience with so many others. Thanks Crystal

Crystal was wonderful in assisting me with the sale of my home. By me living in Texas, I was unable to handle the details.

Bought a Single Family home in 2013 for approximately $275K in Orlando, FL.
My husband and I were looking to buy a home in a particular area of Orlando within a certain price range. We needed a good realtor that could make this process as painless as possible. We chose Crystal Jenkins because she had successfully helped so many of our friends find their dream homes. Crystal was very attentive and stayed on top of all the things that needed to be handled. Because of her tenacity we were successful in finding the right home. Once we found our home, she went out of her way to make sure all the little loose ends were taken care of properly. She went above and beyond to help us and we are so thankful we decided to choose her as our realtor. We will recommend her to other friends and family. Thanks and much success!

Reader Mail: What Can I Expect at Prom?
I recently received this e-mail from a reader:
My prom is coming up really in about a month. I'm only a sophomore that was invited to go by a junior. None of my friends have ever gone to prom and I don't know what to expect. This guy and I are only friends and he happens to have a crush on a different girl who already had a date. What should I expect from him if we are only friends? Should we still buy each other flowers? Do they actually play slow songs at prom or is it a giant grinding pit? Please help me!!!

Found April 23, 2012 on Fox Sports South:
PLAYERS: Bobby Petrino
TEAMS: Weber State Wildcats, Michigan State Spartans
TEAMS: Weber State Wildcats, Michigan State Spartans
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) -- A person familiar with the decision says Arkansas is bringing back John L. Smith on an interim basis next year to replace Bobby Petrino. Smith, who left the Razorbacks after last season to become the coach at Weber State, is returning on a one-year appointment, according to the person who spoke Monday on condition of anonymity because the school had not made its decision public. Smith is also a former head coach at Michigan State and Louisville. Petrino was fired April 10 after his affair with a woman he hired as his assistant was revealed by an April 1 motorcycle crash.

This story is gripping, suspenseful, and unusual, with likable characters and surprising but reasonable twists. The book is filled with easy-to-read dialogue so that a person who generally reads forty pages an hour can easily slid through seventy, without missing a word or exciting event. Readers will be moved by the paragraph beginning at the bottom of page 230. They will be enthralled by two scenes where lawyers show lawyerly skills.
We are introduced to Dan Mercer on page 1 and we like him immediately. Even his ex-wife loves him, and Dan baby-sits for her and her new husband's children. Then on page 7, we read that Dan is caught in a TV sting. Wendy Tynes, the TV reporter who ensnares him, is convinced that he is a pedophile, but then she isn't sure. She meets other people accused of crimes, including nearly everyone that roomed together at Princeton University. One of these men meets daily with four friends at Starbucks who lost their jobs because of the hard economic times. They offer to help Wendy uncover what happened, but they are stopped. So she turns to the intelligent, very rich, and resourceful, but haughty Win, a character from other Coben books, who helps her.
We meet Marcia Mcwaid on page 8 and learn that her daughter disappeared. Was Dan somehow involved in this disappearance?
Ed Grayson is introduced on page 17. His son was molested by a pedophile and Ed is sure that Dan did it. He shoots Dan later in front of Wendy Tynes, but the body disappears. Ed tells Wendy that she has no clue about what is really happening.
Readers will enjoy finding out if Ed is wrong, who committed the crimes, what were the crimes.

A Sukkah is a temporary hut constructed for the use of the week-long festival of Sukkot. A Sukkah has to have 3 walls and a roof covering of "sechach" - material that came from the ground, commonly used are bamboo sticks, pine branches, wood or palm leaves.
Our first photos are sukkahs from the Kotel. Notice the silver etched Shivas Haminim on the outside wall? It looks really amazing in real life.
If we are building a temporary hut, it doesn't mean it can't be beautiful. This sukkah is fit for a king and one of the most elegant sukkah's we've seen.
This week we should be spending as much time in the Sukkah and this is an example of how inviting it is it. With space for a couch why would you want to leave?
Another beautiful Sukkah:

Felicity lies on her bed and looks through some reference books. She stops, places a book on her desk, and then consults the Magic 8-Ball. Apparently, she got the answer she wanted, because she smiles and takes off. Meanwhile, Noel is working late in his office, eating Chinese food. Felicity shows up at his office, and asks if she can come in. Noel agrees. Felicity sits down at his desk and asks what he thinks about piñatas. Noel uncertainly says that he likes them. Felicity explains that she was looking in the dictionary for inspiration for her paintings, and she settled on piñatas because "they're colorful [and] they're full of surprises which you only get to see what's inside them after they've been knocked around a little." Felicity confesses that she has kind of felt like a piñata this year, then asks Noel what he thinks about using it for a theme for her artwork. Noel thinks it's fine. Felicity thinks that he hates it. Noel says that there is "emotional stuff" going on. Felicity assumes that he's talking about her paintings, and Noel clarifies that he was "sort of talking about [himself] this time." Felicity looks puzzled. Noel tries to explain, and Felicity realizes that he's trying to start his business. Noel says that it's not just the business; he's trying to get his life back on track. Felicity heaves a big sigh and asks what he's saying. Noel swallows and says that he's not sure. Felicity nods and says, "That maybe we shouldn't be spending time together." Noel says that he loves spending time with Felicity, but that he just can't right now. Felicity agrees. Noel says that he should get back to work, and Felicity slowly grabs her bag and walks out. Noel calls out that he likes "the piñata thing." Felicity leaves, and Noel looks after her, seemingly unsure if he's doing the right thing here.
Ben, Trevor, and Elena are having a study session. Or rather, Ben is trying to study while Trevor and Elena flirt outrageously. Ben, disgusted, picks up his things and says that he's going to the library. Trevor chases Ben out of the room and asks what's going on. Ben says that he can't be the only one in the room who wants to focus. Trevor claims that there are other things besides studying in college. Ben says that there aren't for him. Trevor can't believe that Ben is that upset about it, but Ben walks away.
"Sweet Girl" by Natalie Hemby plays as Felicity walks towards the art studio carrying a piñata in a bag, passing Noel's door on the way. She looks in, but doesn't stop. In the studio, Felicity listens to music on her headphones while she stares at the blank canvas. She finally picks up a brush and starts painting.
Meghan looks through the telephone book while Lila eats something from a bowl. Meghan suggests a doctor they can see, and Lila thanks her for helping her "take care of this." Meghan wants to know what Lila means. Lila says, "I know some people think it's a sin, but I'm in high school; I'm not going to have a baby." Meghan points out that Lila is fairly far along in her pregnancy, and doesn't have any other options besides having the baby. Lila looks shocked, but doesn't say anything. Meghan suggests calling their parents. Lila doesn't want to. Meghan says that their parents will find out eventually, since Lila is on their insurance. Lila wants Meghan to pay the doctor, and Lila will pay her back. Meghan doesn't have that kind of money. Lila says, "Great!" and storms off. Lila says that she thought Meghan was going to help her. Meghan says that she is, but Lila doesn't want the kind of help that involves calling their parents. Lila storms out.

A- Hard to give this beer a head. What I did manage with a violent pour dissappeared quickly. Clear golden yellow. Some weak effervescence. Very boring cheap macro look.
S- Corn. Maybe a hint of apple-type fruit.
T- Faint flash of grassy hops bitterness. Corn and sweetness in the middle. Off, slightly sweet aftertaste.
MF- Feel of fizzy water. Nothing offensive though.
D- Uninspiring cheap beer.

Miranda was on hand to reveal the brand new Qantas Airlines flight attendant uniform launch in Sydney, Australia earlier today (April 16th). She looks so beautiful as always. You can view the photos in our gallery.

Appearances and Events > 2013 > April 16 – Qantas Airline's New Uniform Launch in Sydney, Australia
Last week, rumors swirled that Victoria's Secret chose not to renew Miranda Kerr's Angel contract because she drew lower sales for the brand and is "difficult" to work with — but it looks like those lofty claims were a bit far-reaching. Now Miranda herself has spoken up to clear the air, hinting at bigger moves in her future than walking lingerie runways.
"The thing is, I've been modelling since I was 13," Miranda told the Sydney Morning Herald. "I'm now entering a new phase in my life. I have felt this coming since my son was born and, after I became a mother, I realised I needed to prioritise my time."
And it seems posing as an Angel takes up too big a chunk of that precious time: Miranda says she'd need to commit to a minimum of three months in the Angel role, which is too large a distraction at this stage in her career.
"I've reached a point in my career where I'm developing my own opportunities that are really reflective of my passions," Miranda says, hinting that she might like to take a stab at the business side of her industry, transitioning from boudoir to boardroom.
As for the pesky gossip regarding Miranda's "difficult" nature? Totally false. "I'm sure anyone that has worked with me would agree that it's not true," she said.
This clarifies the confusing statement that Ed Razek, President and Chief Marketing Officer at Victoria's Secret gave last week: "While her international commitments have kept her away from us more than we'd like over the past few years, she will always be an Angel to me."
We're glad Miranda has set the story straight and we're happy to hear that this is an amicable parting, with Miranda continuing to walk for Victoria's Secret, no strings attached. What business ventures do you think Miranda's got up her wing sleeve?
Supermodel and super mom Miranda Kerr is known for rocking skimpy lingerie on a runway, but she's happiest at home in a robe with her son. We caught up with her at the Victoria's Secret launch of the Fabulous bra and fragrance collection to score her style and parenting tips.
SheKnows: How has your style changed since becoming a mom?
Miranda Kerr: It really depends on if I'm at home or what occasion I'm going to… so if I'm going out or going to work, I like to have fun with fashion and that's what a lot of people see. But when I'm at home, I literally like to be in my robe and barefoot and that's just the way that I am. I spend a lot of time at home in LA with my son.
SK: What do you recommend wearing when you're expecting?
MK: Be comfortable. I loved a lot of maxi dresses when I was pregnant just because you feel free and effortless in a maxi dress.
SK: You have amazing skin. What are your favorite products?
MK: I have my own skin care line, Kora Organics, so I can't live without it. It's cleanse, tone, moisturize for me and we have the 3-step pack available. There won't be international shipping fees anymore for U.S. customers, so that's very exciting.
Miranda looks refreshingly beautiful during a photoshoot for Kora Organics on Sunday (February 10) at Palm Beach in Sydney, Australia.
The 29-year-old supermodel wore a Zimmermann dress, Miu Miu sunglasses, a The Hatmaker hat, and a Tigerlily bikini.
The shoot was photographed by Chris Colls with styling by Romy Frydman.
Thank you again to the #A-team who worked on my KORA campaign yesterday," Miranda wrote on Instagram, along with the names of her team from the photo shoot.
On Friday, February 15, Miranda arrived at LAX Airport in Los Angeles, California. I added 15 HQ candids to the photo gallery. Check them out!
Cold weather and a gloomy sky didn't stop Miranda Kerr from meeting with beauty media at Bondi Beach this morning. She was back in front of the press for her duties as the ambassador for Clear Scalp & Hair Beauty Therapy. It's just one of her many ambassador roles, and she added a new one for her busy roster one day earlier when she was announced as the new face of the Kids Helpline.
While in Australia, Miranda has also had to deal with cyber hackers who have previously hacked into her social media accounts — in the past She issued a warning via Twitter yesterday when she wrote, "Just with the cyber crime unit. Whoever hacked my account expect a knock on the door very soon…"
Miranda Kerr keeps it dressy while posing with children after being named Kids Helpline Ambassador at Luna Park on Tuesday (February 12) in Sydney, Australia. I added 21 HQ/MQ pictures to the photo gallery!
FYI: Kids Helpline is a "counseling service available to Australian children between 5-25 years of age."
I added 8 HQ new pictures of Miranda for Victoria's Secret February 2013 to the image archive. Check them out if you like.
I finally managed to upload Miranda photoshoot for Purple Magazine #19 SS 2013, taken by Terry Richardson. The photoshoot contains of 19 HQ pictures.
