  • Patent number: 9703447
    Abstract: A system for generating, on a user terminal, a user interface having at least two interface items, where the system is configured to store at least two sets of data each corresponding to the interface items. A first set of data includes data for generating and controlling the performance of an operation associated with a first of interface items, and a second said set of data includes data for generating and controlling the performance of an operation associated with a second of the interface items. When a user interacts with the first interface item, the system is configured to perform the action associated with the first interface item, independent of the second interface item and without performing any other action corresponding to the user interface.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20150347335
    Abstract: Methods and devices for transmitting SuperSpeed information between a host device and a USB device via an extension medium are provided. Link partner relationships are established between the host device and an upstream facing port device, between the USB device and a downstream facing port device, and between the upstream facing port device and the downstream facing port device. While the link partner relationship between the upstream facing port device and the downstream facing port device is substantially compliant to the USB 3.0 Specification, the link partner relationship may use a configurable link layer acknowledgement timer to compensate for delays in transmission over the extension medium.

  • Publication number: 20130254440
    Abstract: Devices and methods for providing SuperSpeed USB connections across an extension medium are provided. An upstream facing port device (UFP device) and a downstream facing port device (DFP device) are connected by an extension medium, and communicate via an extension protocol. The UFP device and the DFP device include switchable receiver termination circuitry. The receiver termination at the UFP device is enabled upon determining that a USB device coupled to the DFP device supports SuperSpeed communication, and the receiver termination at the DFP device is enabled upon determining that a host device coupled to the UFP device supports SuperSpeed communication.

  • Patent number: 7478329
    Abstract: A system for generating, on a users terminal, a graphical user interface comprising at least one interface item. A user creates a graphical user interface for an application by using a designer module to drag and drop interface items on a window and by associating properties, events and actions to the interface items. The designer module then generates a set of data corresponding to the interface item using I3ML, a programming language that employs the syntax of XML. The set of data is stored in a file, such as in a server, and then is transmitted to and processed by a player module. The player module receives the set of data and uses it to display the graphical user interface. Each interface item of the user interface has a corresponding set of I3ML data which the player module employs to display it. Upon a user interacting with the interface item, the system is configured to perform an action associated with the interface item, without performing any other action corresponding to the user interface.
