Abstract: A method for adjusting display parameters in a display device detects a change (second intensity value) in ambient light levels from a first intensity value of ambient light and corresponding first set of display parameters applied to the display device. Second set of display parameters are calculated according to the first intensity value and the second intensity value as well as the first set of display parameters. The display parameters of the display device are adjusted from the first set of display parameters to the second set of display parameters to take account of the change represented by the second intensity value.

Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology provide for a space optimization tool. More specifically, some embodiments provide for a space optimization tool that uses team collaboration patterns to guide team-to-location allocation planning. Some embodiments of the space optimization tool use social collaboration data that tracks people's communication patterns, such as how frequently teams talk to each other. The social collaboration data can be used to by the space optimization tool to guide how individuals and teams should sit on different locations (e.g., within floors, buildings, etc.). The space optimization tool can create a smart floor layout that achieves desired business outcomes, such as minimizing employee's commute time to other teams, stimulating collaborations between teams, and the like. In accordance with various embodiments, the space optimization tool can create a smart layout by using an optimization model to automatically optimize a target function at global level.
