Abstract: A method and a computer system for performing the method of determining an initial value or lifetime value for a domain name is provided. The method for determining an initial value includes obtaining, over a communication network, a domain name from requestor; obtaining, over the communication network, one or more inputs from one or more domain name data sources; applying the one or more inputs and the domain name to an initial lifetime worth computer model, wherein the one or more inputs comprise data related to comparable historical domain names, data from a linguistic model analysis, data from a linguistic frequency list, and data related to a second-level domain to top-level domain relationship analysis; determining, by a hardware processor, an initial lifetime worth for the domain name based on the initial lifetime worth computer model; and providing the initial lifetime worth for the domain name to the requestor.

Abstract: Implementations of the present disclosure are directed to a method, a system, and a computer program storage device for performing tasks associated with a project. A computer-implemented method includes: collecting data related to tasks that have been completed; training a predictive model using the collected data; matching a product to a customer; using the predictive model to determine weights for uncompleted tasks associated with the product; assigning the weights to the uncompleted tasks; and assigning the uncompleted tasks to a plurality of queues based on the weights, to maximize parallel performance of the tasks and meet a completion date associated with the product.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to AM-14 pharmaceutical formulations and therapeutic dosing regimens for the treatment of disease.

Abstract: Nanostructured material exhibiting a random anisotropic nanostructured surface, and exhibiting an average reflection at 60 degrees off angle less than 1 percent. The nanostructured materials are useful, for example, for optical and optoelectronic devices, displays, solar, light sensors, eye wear, camera lens, and glazing.

Abstract: Aspects of a system for automatically adapting an application user interface display on a small form factor computing device include a computing device having at least a processing device, a memory, and a display. The user interface is a functional landscape of an application that accommodates and displays, in various combinations, multiple regions of application functional controls and information. An adaptive user interface display module detects a change in available screen space for the application user interface on a small form factor computing device, and adjusts the functional landscape accordingly.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for an improved user interface for displaying and scaling selectable software commands and controls in at least one of a first ribbon and a second ribbon. Underneath a first ribbon of top-level command tabs, selectable controls associated with a selected command tab are presented in logical subgroups or chunks. The selectable controls within the chunks are granularly scaled to accommodate different screen sizes or changes in window size. The scaling includes moving a subset of the selectable controls within at least one of the chunks between an overflow pane and the second ribbon.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of plant breeding. More specifically, the present invention includes a method of using haploid plants for genetic mapping of traits of interest such as disease resistance. Further, the invention includes a method for breeding corn plants containing quantitative trait loci (QTL) that are associated with resistance to Gray Leaf Spot, a fungal disease associated with Cercospora spp.

Abstract: Aspects of a system for automatically managing a pane in a user interface on a small form factor computing device include an adaptive pane module for determining when an event that affects the canvas size occurs, such as changing the display configuration or reorienting the display, which in turn affects pane management, or the opening or closing of a pane. The adaptive pane module manages the pane. After managing the pane, the system resizes the canvas and reflows the content as appropriate for a small form factor computing device.

Underneath a first ribbon of top-level command tabs, selectable controls associated with a selected command tab are presented in logical subgroups or chunks. The selectable controls within the chunks are granularly scaled to accommodate different screen sizes or changes in window size. The scaling includes moving a subset of the selectable controls within at least one of the chunks between an overflow pane and the second ribbon.

Abstract: Aspects of a system and method for transitioning a configuration of a user interface (UI) of an application to a particular experience mode configuration in response to a transition of experience modes by an operating system (OS) is described. The application UI may be transitioned from a configuration optimized for hardware input interaction to a configuration optimized for interaction via natural input methods, or vice versa. An experience mode transition triggering event is detected by the OS, and in response, the OS transitions from a first experience mode to a second experience mode, and communicates the transition to the application. In response to the communication, the application transitions to the second experience mode, and reconfigures the UI to a configuration associated with the second experience mode. Other aspects enable a user to manually switch experience modes via the application, and remain in the selected mode when the OS transitions modes.

Abstract: A method for laser cladding a material onto a surface of a machine component using a laser scanning head with laser scanning optics is disclosed. The method includes forming a molten bead of cladding material by directing a beam with the laser scanning optics over a bead scan on the machine component. The method also includes directing the beam with the laser scanning optics over a secondary scan on the machine component, the secondary scan being offset from the bead scan at a predetermined distance on the machine component.

A display size associated with a connected processing device is detected. A display class is determined based on the detected display size. A user interface for an application is launched based on the determined display class. Other examples are also described.
