Patent number: 10198518Abstract: Techniques include receiving a search query from a user device, receiving an indication of a current application (app) state of a native app executing on the device from the device, and identifying app state records based on the query and the indication. Each app state record includes an app access mechanism (AAM) and app state information (ASI). The AAM references the native app executing on the user device and indicates operations for the app to perform. The ASI describes an app state of the app after performing the operations. Identifying each app state record based on the indication includes determining that the current app state is a parent app state of the app state described by the ASI included in the identified record. The techniques further include selecting the AAMs from the identified app state records and transmitting the selected AAMs to the user device.Type: GrantFiled: December 28, 2015Date of Patent: February 5, 2019Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Joseph Nelson, Jason Hreha

Patent number: 9984132Abstract: Techniques include displaying, at a user device, a user-selectable link associated with a search result that specifies a state of a software application (app). The state is associated with one or more entities (e.g., business, franchise, product, or service names, and/or geographic locations). The link is configured to, upon being selected, cause the device to set the software app into the state. The techniques further include receiving, at the device, an input from a user. The input specifies a mathematical operation to be performed based on the entities. The techniques include, in response to receiving the input, performing the operation. The techniques also include, in response to performing the operation, displaying another user-selectable link configured to, upon being selected, cause the device to set the same or a different software app into another state that is associated with at least one of the entities.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2016Date of Patent: May 29, 2018Assignee: Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.Inventors: Joseph Nelson, Hadar Dor

Publication number: 20160357764Abstract: Techniques include receiving a search query and an indication of a proximate device located near a user device from the user device and identifying one or more records included in a search data store based on the query and, e.g., the indication. In this example, the user device receives the indication from the proximate device via a local wireless network using which the proximate device communicates. Also in this example, each record includes record content (e.g., web links, documents, media files, software applications, or other data) and record information describing the content. In some examples, the techniques further include generating result scores for the identified records based on the indication and selecting one or more of the records based on the scores. The techniques also include selecting the record content from the identified (and, e.g., selected) records and transmitting the content to the user device as search results.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2015Publication date: December 8, 2016Inventors: Eric GLOVER, Joseph NELSON

Patent number: 8675990Abstract: A method of evaluating a composite structure in which a portion of the structure is imaged and subsequently transformed to provide a 2D output of the angular distribution of features, eg a 2D FFT. A weighting function is applied to the output to compensate for variation in the angular density of pixel population. The weighted output is then used to provide an angular distribution of feature intensity. The structure can be imaged in two or more intersecting planes to allow a 3D determination of feature direction to be obtained.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2009Date of Patent: March 18, 2014Assignee: Qinetiq LimitedInventors: Robert Alan Smith, Luke Joseph Nelson

Patent number: 8328471Abstract: A metalcutting insert that is useful in chipforming and material removal from a workpiece The metalcutting insert includes a metalcutting insert body, which includes a cutting edge having at least one discrete cutting location. The metalcutting insert body further contains a distinct interior coolant passage communicating with the discrete cutting location. The distinct interior coolant passage has a coolant passage inlet defining a coolant passage inlet cross-sectional area, a coolant passage discharge defining a coolant passage discharge cross-sectional area, and an axial coolant passage length. The distinct interior coolant passage defines a coolant flow cross-sectional area along the axial coolant passage length thereof. The coolant passage inlet cross-sectional area is substantially the same as the coolant passage discharge cross-sectional area. The geometry of the coolant flow area changes along the axial coolant passage length.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2010Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Kennametal Inc.Inventors: Joseph Nelson, Linn Andras, Thomas Muller, Paul Prichard, Brad Hoffer
