TLDR
In this paper, an improved technique for managing enterprise applications on mobile devices is described, where each enterprise mobile application running on the mobile device has an associated policy through which it interacts with its environment.
Abstract
Improved techniques for managing enterprise applications on mobile devices are described herein. Each enterprise mobile application running on the mobile device has an associated policy through which it interacts with its environment. The policy selectively blocks or allows activities involving the enterprise application in accordance with rules established by the enterprise. Together, the enterprise applications running on the mobile device form a set of managed applications. Managed applications are typically allowed to exchange data with other managed applications, but are blocked from exchanging data with other applications, such as the user's own personal applications. Policies may be defined to manage data sharing, mobile resource management, application specific information, networking and data access solutions, device cloud and transfer, dual mode application software, enterprise app store access, and virtualized application and resources, among other things.

Single sign-on access in an orchestration framework for connected devices

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose a coherent whole architecture for multiple devices to take on distinct functions that are complementary to one another, allowing each device to take a distinct role that is complementary to each other.
Patent

Configuring and providing profiles that manage execution of mobile applications

TL;DR: In this article, a user interface is generated that allows an IT administrator or other operator to set, change and/or add to policy settings, and the policy settings can be formatted into a policy file and made available for download to a mobile device, such as via an application store or to be pushed to the mobile device as part of a data push service.
Patent

System and method for synchronizing bi-directional document management

TL;DR: In this article, a system for collaborating information over a network is described, where the processor(s) may provide content to the collaboration platform in response to a content link selection by a reviewer and receive the reviewer's changes, with the platform temporarily storing the document in a virtual memory for rendering to the reviewer and deleting it after the communication session ends.
