Active content is deterministically rendered in a stable format that is independent of any particular targeted environment, which the active content may subsequently be rendered to. Environmental and dynamic dependencies are removed from a specification associated with the active content for purposes of producing a stable and consistent specification for the active content. The stable and static specification is used to subsequently render the active content into the stable format for any targeted or desired environment.

Deterministic rendering of active content

A method and system to process an electronic form is provided. The system may include a communications module to receive a request to digitally sign an electronic form, the electronic form being direct rendered, a suspend module to respond to the request by suspending direct rendering, and a signed content generator to generate a signed version of the electronic form. The signed version of the electronic form is to reflect a state of the electronic form at the time of the request digitally sign the electronic form.

Method and system to process an electronic form

Methods and apparatus provide for an event tracker assigns a unique application identifier to represent a relationship between a media publisher and a client application that receives media content from the media publisher. The media publisher organizes the media content according to a media orchestration descriptor. The media orchestration descriptor identifies each segment of the media content and indicating relationships among the segments to define a presentation of the segments of the media content. The event tracker further associates an audit policy with the media orchestration descriptor where the audit policy is defined by the media publisher and received by the client application. The audit policy is applied to the client application in order to locally track events that occur with respect to the presentation of the media publisher's media content via the client application.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for identifying applications. In general, in one aspect, a method includes: obtaining a first certificate chain from certificates corresponding to a digitally signed application, and a second certificate chain from a successful validation of the digital signature using the certificates; and generating an identifier for the application based on one or more certificate owner names found in both the first certificate chain and the second certificate chain. Generating the identifier for the application can include finding a location in one of the first and second certificate chains that corresponds to a root of the other of the first and second certificate chains, and comparing the one or more certificate owner names found in both the first certificate chain and the second certificate chain, starting or ending with the root and the location.

Application identification

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including medium-encoded computer program products, for providing local storage service to applications that run in an application execution environment. In one aspect, a method includes receiving a request from one of the applications, wherein the request triggers local storage of information; obtaining an encryption key based on identifiers including a first identifier corresponding to the application execution environment, a second identifier corresponding to the one application, and a third identifier corresponding to the computing apparatus; encrypting the information using the encryption key; and storing the encrypted information in the computing apparatus.

Providing local storage service to applications that run in an application execution environment

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, for presenting status of digital signatures. A digital document is received that defines a presentation structure and includes a digital signature. The digital document specifies a representation of the digital signature and a location in the presentation structure for the representation of the digital signature. A status is determined for the digital signature. A status representation is associated with the digital signature, where the status representation identifies the status determined for the digital signature. Without altering the representation of the digital signature, at least a portion of the digital document and the status representation of the digital signature are presented in a user interface, where the status representation is presented in the presentation structure at a location that depends upon the location of the digital signature.

Indicating status for digital signatures

Methods and apparatus implementing systems and techniques for differencing token streams and detecting moved blocks of tokens. In general, in one implementation, the technique includes: obtaining a first token stream and a second token stream, comparing the first and second token streams to identify a group of tokens that are substantially similar in the first and second token streams, the similar-tokens group including common sub-sequences, which are identical in the first and second token streams, and at least one unmatched token, and presenting matched token information corresponding to the similar-tokens group to represent changes in document flow.
