Abstract: A server federation cooperatively interacts to fulfill service requests by communicating using data structures that follow a schema in which the meaning of the communicated data is implied by the schema. Thus, in addition to the data being communicated, the meaning of the data is also communicated allowing for intelligent decisions and inferences to be made based on the meaning of the data. Cooperative interaction is facilitated over a wide variety of networks by messaging through a common API that supports multiple transport mechanisms. Also, mid-session transfer between client devices is facilitated by schema and the transport-independent messaging structure. The user interfaces of the client devices will appear consistent even if the client devices have different user interface capabilities.

Abstract translation: 服务器联合协作地通过使用遵循模式的数据结构进行通信来协调地交互以履行服务请求，其中所传送的数据的含义由模式暗示。 因此，除了正在传送的数据之外，还传送数据的含义，允许基于数据的含义进行智能决策和推断。 通过通过支持多种传输机制的通用API的消息传递，可以在各种各样的网络上促进协作交互。 而且，通过架构和与传输无关的消息收发结构来促进客户端设备之间的中间会话传输。 即使客户端设备具有不同的用户界面功能，客户端设备的用户界面也将保持一致。

Abstract: Several embodiments of the present invention comprise a storage platform that provides a synchronization service that (i) allows multiple instances of the storage platform (each with its own data store) to synchronize parts of their content according to a flexible set of rules, and (ii) provides an infrastructure for third parties to synchronize the data store of the storage platform of the present invention with other data sources that implement proprietary protocols. However, it is possible that a conflict might arise in a number of synchronization scenarios. For example, A1and B2 may have been changes made to the same change unit, or A1 might be a deletion to the same change unit that B2 was modifying. While some of these conflicts can be resolved using the conflict resolution options discussed ealier herein, certain conflicts provide particularly difficult challenges, and these challenges and their solutions are discussed herein.

Abstract translation: 本发明的几个实施例包括提供同步服务的存储平台，该同步服务（i）允许存储平台（每个具有其自己的数据存储器）的多个实例根据一组灵活的规则来同步其内容的一部分，并且（ ii）为第三方提供了将本发明的存储平台的数据存储与实现专有协议的其他数据源同步的基础设施。 但是，有可能在许多同步场景中出现冲突。 例如，A1和B2可能已经对相同的更改单元进行了更改，或者A1可能是删除B2正在修改的相同的更改单元。 虽然这些冲突中的一些可以使用本文讨论的冲突解决选项来解决，但某些冲突提供了特别困难的挑战，并且这里讨论了这些挑战及其解决方案。

Abstract: Semantic queries are expressed and executed within a relational database. This can be done by defining semantic rules applied to execute the semantic queries using table valued functions and common table expressions, and then simply calling the defined table valued functions to execute the queries.

Abstract translation: 在关系数据库中表达和执行语义查询。 这可以通过定义应用于使用表值函数和公共表表达式执行语义查询的语义规则，然后简单地调用定义的表值函数来执行查询。

Abstract: By modeling real-world application objects with complex structures, behaviors, and operations described by a schema which is enforced by the hardware/software interface system, various embodiments of the present invention provide rich sub-typing functionality (3602, 3604, 3606, 6322, 3624, 3626, 3642, 3644) by extending Items using extensions which provide additional data structure to already existing items type structures. Extensions are strongly typed instances that cannot exist independently and must be attached to an item or a Nested element. Extensions are also intended to address multi-typing issues by enabling the overlap of type instances.

Abstract: Systems and methods for extensions of units of information manageable by a hardware/software interface system are described. The method comprises the steps of: defining an initial discrete storable unit of information having a type structure; defining an extension representative of a desired additional data structure; attaching the extension to the type structure of the initial discrete storable unit of information; and,creating a new discrete storable unit of information.
