Abstract: Particular embodiments receive a plurality of touch events detected by a touchscreen. The display refresh rate may not be synchronized with a touch response rate of the touchscreen. Each touch event may be associated with at least one position on the touchscreen. A correlation between the touch events and a display refresh rate of the touchscreen may be determined. At least one position for display output may be extrapolated based on the touch events for the purpose of smoothing the display output. Additional positions for display output may be extrapolated based on the touch events for the purpose of predicting display output. Display information may be provided based on the touch events and the extrapolated positions.

Abstract: A processing method in a system including first and second computer devices, the second device receiving batches of data to be sorted into N categories is provided. According to the method, an algorithm for sorting into N categories, which is stored in the second device, is executed in the second device and determines a respective category from among the N categories for each batch of data; and an action is selectively triggered according to the category determined for the received data batches, respectively. The sorting algorithm may previously be obtained according to the following steps: i/ a data sample is generated for each of the N categories; ii/ according to the data received by the first device for the data samples, an algorithm for sorting into N categories is determined by the first device according to consecutive iterations of a definition algorithm executed in the first device.

Abstract: Methods for accessing published content from a mobile device are described herein. In one aspect of the invention, an example of a process includes receiving a first message received from a mobile device over a network for accessing a destination, where the first message includes an identification associated with a destination and a predetermined indicator. In response to the first message, returning a second message to the mobile device, the second message including a link linking with a network-based resource associated with the destination. Other methods and apparatuses are also described.

Abstract: A method and system for reducing noise in image and audio signals for processing and output display includes determining noise estimates for a given signal and performing a noise reduction routine for two adjacent data in a signal array. By using a predetermined conversion factor and a permissible delta (deviation) between the two adjacent data, energy may be shifted from the higher valued data to the lower valued data to reduce the noise level without changing the total intensity of the signal array (corresponding to image and/or audio data).

Abstract: A comparison of a first version of a resource and a second version of the resource is performed. The comparison performed by a gateway connected to a network. The first version is stored in the gateway. The second version is sent to the gateway by a server connected to the network. When the second version is different from the first version, difference data between the second version and the first version is calculated. The difference data is sent to the client computer using a narrow bandwidth connection. The gateway stores the second version as the first version.

Abstract: A method and system for retrieving and installing for output display one or more configurable elements over a data network including the steps of receiving a list of configurable elements, selecting one or more of the configurable elements from the list of configurable elements, the each one or more of the configurable elements having associated therewith an attribute, the attribute including one or more properties associated with a user interface element of a mobile device, verifying the selected one or more configurable elements, and storing the verified one or more configurable elements is disclosed.

Abstract: A system and method of determining a dynamic cursor advance time delay for a multi-tap key is disclosed. First, an elapsed time between a selection of a first key and a selection of a second key is measured. The measured elapsed time is then compared to a current cursor advance time delay. The current cursor advance time delay is then adjusted. In one embodiment, measuring the elapsed time between the selection of the first key and the selection of the second key includes averaging the elapsed time with previously recorded elapsed times.
