Abstract: Computer-implemented systems and methods are disclosed for automatically generating and displaying a chronology of events, where events may be represented by data objects in one or more databases. Events/data objects may be identified as relevant to an investigation or analysis based on specified criteria. A timeline may be generated based on the identified set of relevant events, and interactive user interfaces may be generated and displayed that present the events as a timeline and a list. Events may be selected from the timeline or the list, may be identified as key events in the chronology, and additional events related to a selected event may be determined and added to the chronology. Timelines may be compared to other data sets, including other timelines, other event lists, and other relevant data.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for processing sliding operations on a portable terminal device. The portable terminal device includes a touch screen. The system includes a memory device configured to store data related to sliding operations, and a processor coupled to the memory device. The processor is configured to cause to display, on the touch screen, a communication function interface for receiving user sliding operations. The processor is further configured to receive original messages obtained on the touch screen corresponding to the user sliding operations, and process the original messages to determine possible sliding patterns corresponding to the user sliding operations. The processor is also configured to set a user-defined sliding pattern based on the possible sliding patterns.

Abstract: Method, system, and computer-readable medium for applying a new skin to a display environment are disclosed. In one aspect, at a device having one or more processors, memory, and a display: user input for switching to a new skin for a display environment on the device is received, the new skin being of a gradient color type; in response to the user input, a skin changing request is sent to a server, wherein the skin changing request identifies the new skin and the type of the new skin; the new skin is received from the server in an abstracted form, the abstracted form comprising one or more gradient color ranges in lieu of an image of the new skin; and a displayed region of the new skin is generated based on the one or more gradient color ranges.

Abstract: The relaying device may generate a first type of image data selection screen data for causing the display unit of the image processing device to display a first type of image data selection screen having a first display pattern, in a case where the folder type information regarding the selected folder indicates that the selected folder is a first type of folder used for storing a first type of image data. The relaying device may generate a second type of image data selection screen data for causing the display unit of the image processing device to display a second type of image data selection screen having a second display pattern which is different from the first display pattern, in a case where the folder type information regarding the selected folder indicates that the selected folder is a second type of folder used for storing a second type of image data.

Abstract: A mobile terminal includes a display unit on which a tiled object corresponding to a function is displayed and a touch panel located on the display unit. The mobile terminal further includes at least one processor. The at least one processor displays, when a plurality of tiled objects are stored in a folder, display the folder on the display unit. The at least one processor displays an image representing a tiled object stored in the folder on the display unit in association with the folder. The at least one processor performs, when a touch operation is performed on the folder, a function corresponding to the tiled object represented by the image displayed on the display unit.

Abstract: A device identifies a location for a custom RFT command in a message. The custom RTF command is stored in the identified location of the message. The device also receives such messages and detects the custom RTF command in the message and acts upon the detected RTF command.

Abstract: Provided are a display method and device for a menu key of a touchscreen mobile terminal, which relate to the technical field of mobile terminals. The method comprises: obtaining relative states of the left side and the right side of the screen of a touchscreen mobile terminal; and when the left side of the screen is higher than the right side thereof, displaying a menu key at the higher side of the screen.

Abstract: Techniques are described for adapting a keyboard arrangement to be personalized for a user, based on detected gestures made by the user while employing the keyboard arrangement. An adaptable keyboard arrangement may be provided for the user as part of a device, projected onto a surface near the user, or rendered abstractly into a space near the user. Sensor and/or contextual data may be employed to identify mistypes or near-mistypes of the user, and a statistical model may be developed of the user's typing habits. Keyboard modifications may be determined that adapt the keyboard to minimize potential typing errors and/or provide a more ergonomic keyboard arrangement for the user.

Abstract: Methods, mediums, and systems include use of a system manger application in a data processing system to manage a building automation system, to display a trend view chart on a graphical user interface, based on a trend view definition, showing the changing value of point data over time from a building automation system device, and to automatically display a comparative chart, based on the trend view definition, of historical point data from the building automation system device upon selection of a predefined comparative trend view button and an offset time period.

Abstract: A device configured to connect to a terminal device, the device including: a supply unit, which supplies management screen data to the terminal device, wherein the management screen data represents a management screen including at least one item, which is related to the device, and which includes a target item for which help information is to be displayed, wherein, in response to a help command received by the terminal device, the management screen data include instructions to control the terminal device to: acquire the help information corresponding to the target item of the item displayed on the management screen; and display a help screen indicating the help information.

Abstract: A system and computer implemented method of personal monitoring is provided. The method includes allowing a user to engage in a number of on-line activities, determining, on a computer, if the user engaged in on-line activities, and if the determination is negative, then performing, on a computer, a number of responsive actions. The system and method further provide for an investigation of external modules; that is, the system and method investigate external sites such as, but not limited to, social networks, forums, weblogs (blogs), that are not associated with the personal monitoring module. The system and method further allow a proxy to respond for the user.

Abstract: A system and method of animating an object using chained kinematic logic is provided. An animated object may be comprised of several components, each having a corresponding solver. An animator may designate a final desired position of a primary component. The method further includes automatically determining a hierarchical chained relationship between the primary component and one or more secondary associated components. Using chained kinematic logic defined by constraints, the statuses of the solvers for the secondary components may change based on the statuses of the primary component's solver and final desired position. Thus, a pose of the entire object, including the states of all its associated secondary components, may change based on an updated status of the solver of the first component designated by the animator.

Abstract: A user-defined, structured input is received via an element included in a user interface. In real time, an active input from the user-defined, structured input is selected based at least in part on context associated with the user interface. A context-sensitive rule that applies to the active input is determined. Guidance associated with the active input and the context-sensitive rule is provided in real time via the user interface.
