PUSH NOTIFICATIONS FOR MULTIPLE USER DEVICES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240244118 titled 'PUSH NOTIFICATIONS FOR MULTIPLE USER DEVICES

Simplified Explanation:

This patent application describes a server network that efficiently routes asynchronous notification messages from multiple application servers to a user device, even when the device is in a low power mode. The network maintains states for user devices and uses identifiers for routing. A network server near the user device registers these identifiers for routing notifications. When a notification is received, the network server determines the routing based on the registration and sends a notification tap to the user device, allowing the user to access the notification content.

Key Features and Innovation:

  • Efficient routing of notification messages from multiple application servers to user devices
  • Ability to deliver notifications to user devices in low power mode
  • Use of identifiers for routing notifications
  • Registration of identifiers by network servers for efficient routing
  • Delegation of receiving notifications to delegate devices with wall-power or network connections

Potential Applications: This technology can be applied in various industries such as:

  • Mobile applications
  • Internet of Things (IoT) devices
  • Smart home systems
  • Wearable technology

Problems Solved:

  • Efficient routing of notifications to user devices
  • Ensuring notifications are received even when devices are in low power mode
  • Simplifying the process of receiving notifications from multiple sources

Benefits:

  • Improved user experience with timely notifications
  • Energy-efficient delivery of notifications to user devices
  • Seamless integration with various devices and applications

Commercial Applications: Title: Efficient Notification Routing Technology for Improved User Experience This technology can be commercialized in:

  • Mobile app development companies
  • IoT device manufacturers
  • Smart home automation companies
  • Wearable technology brands

Prior Art: Further research can be conducted in the field of notification routing technologies to explore existing solutions and innovations.

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in notification routing technologies and their applications in various industries.

Questions about Notification Routing Technology: 1. How does this technology improve the delivery of notifications to user devices? 2. What are the potential challenges in implementing this notification routing system?


Original Abstract Submitted

a server network accepts asynchronous notification messages from multiple application servers and efficiently routes notification messages in the form of notification taps to a user device, which can operate in a low power mode. the user device may or may not be a cellular device. the server network maintains states for the user devices in terms of identifiers useful for routing. a network server proximate to the user device registers the identifiers useful for routing the notifications. when the server network receives a notification from a source application, the proximate network server determines a routing based on the registration and sends a notification tap to the user device. the user device can obtain notification content sourced by the source application. the user device can delegate the role of receiving notification taps to a delegate device, where the delegate device may have wall-power and/or a wired or wireless network connection.
