Abstract: The present disclosure relates generally to pharmaceutical compositions of N-(5-(5-((1R,2S)-2-fluorocyclopropyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-2-methylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-a]pyridine-3-carboxamide useful as a selective inhibitor of c-kit kinase and uses of the same in the treatment of c-kit kinase associated diseases.

Abstract: User equipment may be used in forming communications links between users. A virtual communications channel may be maintained between users while adjustments are made to the type of communications traffic that is being conveyed over the link, the nature of the physical channels being used in the link, link bandwidth and other link attributes, user requirements, and other factors. Monitoring circuitry may be used to monitor factors such as the location of a device and other operating parameters. As circumstances dictate, the operation of the device may be adjusted in real time, while maintaining the virtual communications channel intact. User devices may automatically advertize their presence and may automatically detect nearby devices. Content items may be shared using online services.

Abstract: An originating communications device is configured to transmit a text message to a recipient mobile device when the originating device determines that the recipient device has failed to connect with a call that was initiated by the originating device. The text message is designed to indicate that the recipient device has failed to connect with the call; in addition or as an alternative, the text message includes a code that indicates to the recipient device that it is potentially in a poor RF coverage area. The recipient mobile device, upon receiving and displaying the text message, may determine that it is indeed in an area with poor coverage and will in response store its current geographic location as a poor coverage area. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods of using a speaker phone mode of a portable voice communications device having a built-in camera are described herein. In one embodiment, the speaker phone mode is activated if it is determined that an image captured by the device is black or nearly black, which indicates that the device is placed flat or nearly flat against surface. In one embodiment, the speaker phone mode is activated based on the results of comparing the captured image to a plurality of previously stored captured images wherein the previously stored captured images include images captured by the device in situations where it would be desirable for the speaker phone mode to be activated. In one embodiment, the speaker phone mode is activated based on a comparison of a captured image and previously stored captured images and their respective speaker phone mode statuses. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: A method enabling a wireless telephone or other communication device to enter a unique/generic string identifier such as an e-mail address. When entered on the communication device, a Wireless Name Service (WNS) Server is contacted. The WNS server responds to the communication device with information that is associated with the string identifier in a WNS Registry. The WNS Registry may contain data elements that are returned based upon the application of optional rules to the circumstances of the call.

Abstract: A software tool and method for routing paths in a routing space. A grid is effectively built “on the fly”, therefore reducing the number of grid points which must be plotted. The boundaries of the routing space are defined. Blocks are then defined in the routing space. After the blocks have been defined, grid points are plotted corresponding to the corners of the blocks. The source points and target points are plotted, and grid points are plotted corresponding to the source and target points. Then, the paths from the source points to the target points are plotted along grid points which have been defined in the routing space. This process of defining the grid points not only reduces the size of data needed to describe the available routing space, but preferably obviates the need to run design rule checks.

Abstract: Routing of electrical connections between cells arranged in cell columns on an integrated circuit (IC) die. Electrical connections are routed on a routing layer between cells located in a first cell column. An identification is made of an available off-grid resource capable of being used for wire routing that is both within the first cell column and on the routing layer. An electrical connection is routed between a first cell and a second cell located in different cell columns using at least a portion of the identified available off-grid resource. Also, an integrated circuit die which includes vertical power rails and vertical ground rails. Cell columns, including a first cell column and a second cell column, are each bordered by a vertical power rail and a vertical ground rail. A channel is provided between the first cell column and the second cell column.
