Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and system for generating a uniform resource locator using one or more terms in a hierarchical taxonomy. Specifically, embodiments disclosed herein provide receiving a plurality of terms for a term set and generating a hierarchical taxonomy for the term set using the plurality of terms. Once the hierarchical taxonomy has been generated, a navigation property may be assigned to at least one term in the plurality of terms. A navigation term set that mirrors the properties of the hierarchical taxonomy is then created using the at least one term.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and system for generating a webpage using one or more terms in a hierarchical taxonomy. Specifically, embodiments disclosed herein include receiving a selection of a term in a navigation term set. In embodiments, the term is associated with at least one content item. A query is the executed using the term and a webpage template, that is associated with the navigation term set, is dynamically populated based on the results of the query. A uniform resource locator is then generated for a webpage that corresponds to the webpage template. In embodiments, the uniform resource locator is generated using the navigation term set.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and system for generating a webpage using one or more terms in a hierarchical taxonomy. Specifically, embodiments provide for identifying an item in a database where the item is associated with at least one term in a term set having a hierarchical structure. A uniform resource locator is generated for the webpage using the at least one term and the hierarchical structure associated with the at least one term. An identifier associated with the item is then determined and appended to the generated uniform resource locator.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided that include client-server computing architectures that use minimal download features and functionality as part of page navigation operations, but are not so limited. In an embodiment, a client-server computer system uses a page transition strategy to navigate between electronic pages based in part on script, style, content, and/or other page differences that can be used as part of providing minimal download features and functionality. A method of an embodiment operates to package page incremental rendering information for use in rendering a new electronic page without having to reapply common aspects of the new electronic page and a reference electronic page. Other embodiments are also disclosed.

Abstract: A multi-functional hand strength assessment device includes a housing and at least one bellows device supported by the housing. A grip bar is interfaced with the bellows device for compression thereof. The grip bar is supported by the housing and is accessible by a user to grasp the grip bar for assessment of grip hand strength and finger pinch strength of the user. A grip is interfaced with the bellows device for compression thereof for assessment of twisting hand strength of the user. A pinch bar is supported by the housing opposite the grip bar and movement of one of the grip bar and the pinch bar towards the other compresses the bellows device for assessment of finger pinch strength of the user's fingers. A mechanical or electronic pressure gauge is in fluid connection with the bellows device to register a reading relating to hand strength.

Abstract: A folded dispensing unit and a blank therefor, wherein the blank is adapted to be glued and shipped in a folded condition and erected and further folded at a point of sale, and a method of erecting the glued and folded blank. The dispensing unit includes an interior slot adapted to receive a carton including a plurality of individual products to be dispensed.

Abstract: In one aspect, the invention is directed to polypeptides having an amylase activity, polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides, and methods for making and using these polynucleotides and polypeptides. In one aspect, the polypeptides of the invention can be used as amylases, for example, alpha amylases, to catalyze the hydrolysis of starch into sugars.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method and system for defining one or more custom properties of a term in a hierarchical taxonomy. Embodiments described herein include identifying a term in a term-set using an identifier associated with the term and defining at least one new property for the term. Once the property is defined, the newly defined property is applied to the term.

Abstract: A client-server architecture allows consumer electronics (CE) devices to obtain advertisements, including TV and network content recommendations, via a unified application programming interface (API). A gateway server between online advertisement providers and CE devices prioritizes and personalizes the advertisements and recommendations for a requesting CE device. This architecture scales over time and evolves more functionality without requiring CE device software updates.
