Abstract: A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed. The present invention includes a display unit configured to display an image including at least one object on a screen and a controller searching for at least one associated information on the object using a partial image corresponding to the object in the image, the controller displaying the searched associated information. Accordingly, when a user searches for an information on a specific object in an image using an image search function, it is unnecessary for the user to crop a partial image corresponding to the specific object in the image one by one. Instead, a mobile terminal automatically recognizes the specific object in the image and is then able to search for at least one associated information on the specific object using a partial image of the automatically recognized specific object.

Abstract: A method disclosed herein includes displaying information associated with a first application in a display area of an electronic device, detecting a change in direction of a continuous gesture across at least a portion of the display area between a first direction and a second direction different than the first direction, the continuous gesture associated with a request to display information of a second application, the first application being different than the second application, in response to detecting the change in direction of the continuous gesture, reducing display of the first application to a first portion of the display area and presenting a preview of information associated with the second application in a second portion of the display area in which the first application was presented prior to detection of the continuous gesture, based on a first characteristic of the continuous gesture, discontinuing providing the first information and display the second application in the display area, and base

Abstract: A method of operating a data processing system having a touch enabled display screen to alter the value of a specified variable in the data processing system is disclosed. A value control is provided on the display screen to alter the variable. The value control has an increment tap region, a decrement tap region, and a drag region. The data processing system recognizes gestures in these regions and changes the variable in response to the gestures by an amount that is determined by the gesture. The drag gesture is characterized by a drag direction and a drag length, the drag direction depending on whether the drag gesture is performed toward the increment or decrement tap regions. The value control is advantageous for small display screens.

Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for interaction management systems. The method commences upon receiving a first incoming communication pertaining to a first task, and launching a first task-centered context user interface being initially populated with a first screen device selected in response to the type of incoming communication (e.g., a phone call icon, etc.). An agent interacts with the client by responding to the incoming communication. Then, the method receives a second incoming communication pertaining to the same first task; and populates the first task-centered context user interface with a second screen device appropriate for the second incoming communication (e.g., a chat UI, etc.). Additional new incoming events are routed to its corresponding task-centered context (or a new task-centered context is created).

Abstract: An apparatus and method provide a web browser interface in a device. A method for providing a web browser interface in a device includes recognizing a gesture motion on an address window region of a web browser, determining a page switch-related function mapped to the recognized gesture motion, and performing the determined page switch-related function.

Abstract: A method of modifying an Internet browser interface to provide shopping assistant functionality facilitating on-line shopping at a supported merchant Internet site. A wallet created in accordance with the present invention comprises a database having various user data stored therein under certain predetermined field names. A supported merchant data file identifies a plurality of supported merchants and enables the modified browser interface to determine when a shopper has navigated to a supported merchant web site. For each supported merchant, a rules and mapping file is created that may be used in connection with the wallet to map user-provided information in the wallet to corresponding fields in the merchant's check-out web page. When a user navigates to a supported merchant web site and desires to purchase merchandise and/or services from that merchant, the wallet automatically fills out the merchant's check-out web page(s), thereby simplifying on-line shopping and particularly, the check-out process.
