Disclosed embodiments provide for collaborative access to a distributed data structure. Operations such as inserting, deleting, and annotating are performed by various clients participating in the collaboration. A serialization service enforcing a single order of these operations and ensures the operations and order are communicated to all of the clients participating in the collaboration. Once all clients have acknowledged particular operations, this information is also communicated to all of the clients, such that the clients may perform maintenance activities on the collaboration data structures. The result is a rolling collaboration window shared by all of the clients of the collaboration, with a bottom of the collaboration window defined by a lowest ordered operation not yet acknowledged by all clients of the collaboration, and a highest ordered operation as assigned by the serialization service.

Messaging to enforce operation serialization for consistency of a distributed data structure

Server-side chart layout for web applications is provided. Output of a server-side layout engine is exposed on the web via a server-side web service and a client-side web player that communicates with the web service. The web player is operative to send chart definitions to the web service, and receive a scene graph of a resultant chart layout. The scene graph includes normalized and annotated information to draw the chart, animate transitions, implement interactivities, and provide standardized accessibility locally within a web client. Aspects enable chart fidelity across native and browser endpoints, and provide faster chart load and render performance that is unaffected by growth of data size or expansions in provided chart features.

Server-side chart layout for interactive web application charts

An app in an app store may be associated with a statically or dynamically generated list of the app's features, modes, content, and/or target device. Different descriptions, icons, titles, and the like may be shown in the app store for each of those features, modes, and content. Based on the mapping and display of individual options, users may be enabled to purchase just one of those modes, features, and/or content. If a user finds one of the provided options and acts to acquire it, the app may start up in a mode tailored to the options (feature, mode, content) rather than activating in a generic way. App stores may limit a number of options per app that can appear in search results, to prevent result spamming by collapsing displayed results, limiting the actual number of displayed results, or filtering by user.

Item maps for app store apps

Morphing animations between arbitrary chart states in a web client application are provided. A morphing animation engine interpolates changes between a first output state (before geometry) and a second output state (after geometry), aligning the before and after geometries by semantic identifiers encoded in the geometry. The morphing animation engine further performs simple geometric transitions of geometric primitives for producing an unlimited number of intermediate states (key frames) between any two arbitrary chart states without requiring per frame layouts. According to an aspect, processing times for producing intermediate frames are minimized, allowing for animations to have consistent rendering and achieving a high frame rate (60 FPS).

Generating a chart-type agnostic data structure for defining a chart for use in chart rendering, animation, interactivity, and accessibility via a web client is provided. Aspects of a charting system are operative to represent output of a server-side chart layout engine in a data structure that can transmitted to and consumed by the web client for rendering an interactive chart. For example, aspects of the charting system enable for chart layout and chart rendering to exist separately, providing efficient chart layout and preventing external exposure of chart layout code.

Chart-type agnostic scene graph for defining a chart

A system comprising at least one component running on at least one server and receiving vulnerability data and, for each device of a plurality of devices, device data that includes data of at least one device component. The system includes a trust score corresponding to each device of the plurality of devices and representing a level of security applied to the device. The trust score is generated using a severity of the vulnerability data. The system includes an access control component coupled to the at least one component and controlling access of the plurality of devices to an enterprise using the trust score.
