  • TASK COMPLETION IN EMAIL USING THIRD PARTY APP
    Publication number: 20140172986
    Abstract: Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems for providing a third party app through an email user interface are provided. That is, an email user interface may provide access to an email comprising email content (e.g., a message regarding meeting for dinner at the Emerald Tavern). The email content may be analyzed to identify an entity referenced by the email content (e.g., an Emerald Tavern entity). A user intent to accomplish a task may be determined based upon the entity. An action that may be performed to accomplish the task, and a third party app capable of performing the action may be presented through the email user interface (e.g., a restaurant reservation app capable of a reservation task). Responsive to selection of the third party app, the third party app may be executed within the email user interface without transitioning a user away from the immersive email experience.

  • Semi-centralized multiple path routing
    Patent number: 8755389
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for semi-centralized routing. One of the methods includes receiving one or more routes and determining that a received route identifies a new set of paths different from each routing path group in a maintained set of routing path groups. A new routing path group is created that corresponds to the new set of paths. The new routing path group is assigned an identifier of the routing path group. The new routing path group is converted to a corresponding new flow path group. A flow path group that was converted from the routing path group is replaced on a network device with the converted new flow path group.

  • UMTS reselection performance in small cell systems
    Patent number: 8755802
    Abstract: A beacon cell adapted for use in a small cell RAN includes dual identities—a beacon identity and a regular or “live” identity—in which the identities are individually configured to address differing performance requirements in the small cell RAN. The beacon identity in the cell is specially configured to meet the performance requirements for mobile user equipment (UE) to be able to quickly and easily move from a macrocell base station in a mobile operator's network to the small cell RAN using a process called “reselection.” The live identity is configured to meet all requirements for service to be provided to the UE within the small cell RAN. Once captured by the beacon identity of the beacon cell, the UE can then immediately reselect to the live identity of the cell which operates in a conventional manner.

    Publication number: 20140163328
    Abstract: A method of estimating the likelihood of brain concussion from neurophysiological data acquired from the brain of the subject is disclosed. The method comprises: identifying activity-related features in the data; constructing a subject-specific brain network activity (BNA) pattern having a plurality of nodes, wherein each node represents a feature of the activity-related features, and each pair of nodes is assigned with a connectivity weight; calculating a BNA pattern similarity describing a comparison between the constructed BNA pattern and a baseline BNA pattern being specific to the subject; and assessing the likelihood of brain concussion responsively to the BNA pattern similarity.

  • SYSTEM FOR TRANSFORM GENERATION
    Publication number: 20140164410
    Abstract: This specification describes technologies relating to generating transforms based on rule sets. In general, one aspect described in this specification can be embodied in methods that include receiving a rule set including execution cases, where at least one execution case in the rule set includes one or more trigger conditions and a specification of an output that is to be generated when the one or more trigger conditions are all satisfied. The methods may further include generating a control structure including a sequence of rows corresponding to one or more execution cases in the rule set. Each row may include a sequence of one or more trigger conditions and information specifying the output for a corresponding execution case. For at least one of the trigger conditions, when the trigger condition is failed, the control structure may direct processing to skip at least one row in the sequence of rows.

  • DYNAMIC WEB SERVICES SYSTEM AND METHOD
    Publication number: 20140164497
    Abstract: A Dynamic Web Service server may facilitate custom Enterprise Application interface development with little or no developer input by dynamically creating a web service for performing a particular transaction according to a transaction map. An Enterprise Application client device may create a transaction map by “recording” a transaction between an Enterprise Application client and an Enterprise Application server and mapping transaction fields to a custom interface generated to collect data for re-performing the recorded transaction. The Enterprise Application client device may call the dynamic web service, and the Dynamic Web Service server may then perform the recorded transaction using input data collected in the custom interface.

  • FREQUENCY-DOMAIN BEAMFORMING
    Publication number: 20140160883
    Abstract: A method includes receiving from multiple transducers respective signals including reflections of a transmitted signal from a target. An image of the target is produced irrespective of sparsity of the received signals, by computing transducer-specific frequency-domain coefficients for each of the received signals, deriving, from the transducer-specific frequency-domain coefficients, beamforming frequency-domain coefficients of a beamformed signal in which the reflections received from a selected direction relative to the transducers are emphasized, and reconstructing the image of the target at the selected direction based on the beamforming frequency-domain coefficients.

  • POWER SAVE MECHANISM FOR LOW-POWER NETWORK DEVICES
    Publication number: 20140161118
    Abstract: A power save unit of a first network device determines a sleep duration associated with a sleep mode of a low-power network device based on an exchange of information between the first network device and the low-power network device of a communication network. The power save unit determines whether the low-power network device is in the sleep mode. In response to determining that the low-power network device is in the sleep mode, the power save unit redirects network packets destined to the low-power network device to the first network device. The first network device stores the redirected network packets and notifies the low-power network device that the first network device has stored the redirected network packets.

  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR INTERACTING WITH A TOUCH SCREEN INTERFACE UTILIZING AN INTELLIGENT STENCIL MASK
    Publication number: 20140164983
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for employing an intelligent stencil mask to interact with a touch screen interface and thereby reduce the probability of accidental control function activation. A touch screen interface onboard an aircraft is coupled to a processor and is configured to generate a first virtual mask having a first region and a second region. A user interaction is then detected with one of the first region and the second region. A first reconfigured virtual mask is generated if the user interacted with the second region. However, an aircraft control function is activated if the user interacted with the first region.
