Patent number: 10503808Abstract: Disclosed is an improved system for performing intelligent text reduction on text strings for optimal display in a variety of user interface display elements. The system includes a smart text reduction algorithm that can shorten text strings as necessary in response to resizing the user interface or elements therein. The system also includes a design time user interface for application developers (or other users) to design graphical user interfaces in a collaborative workspace. The design time user interface incorporates the smart text reduction algorithm to enable designers to modify user interface display elements and run the text reduction algorithm on any text strings that no longer fit within the modified display elements. The described embodiments can also translate text strings of user interface display elements and can execute the smart text shortening algorithm on the translated text strings accordingly.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2016Date of Patent: December 10, 2019Assignee: SAP SEInventors: Michail Vasiltschenko, Ralph Debusmann, Florian Hoffmann, Iuliia Konstantinova, Christian Lieske, Charles Monte

Publication number: 20150116363Abstract: Embodiments relate to a mobile device user interface (UI), which includes a dynamic orientation display. Based upon inputs to the mobile device, the user interface is configured to orient the display in a particular manner. For example, the nature of the dynamic display may be determined in part, based upon an input (e.g. from level sensors) indicating a physical orientation of the mobile device. Display may further be determined by additional inputs, for example a setting) locking a display changed according to position, or determining a responsiveness/speed of updating the display in response to changed position. The dynamic display according to embodiments can affect a variety of display attributes, including but not limited to the position/shape of individual display elements (e.g. images, text elements), as well as groupings of those display elements (e.g. within a tile). Physical orientation of the device may also determine an identity of information displayed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2013Publication date: April 30, 2015Applicant: SAP AGInventors: Charles Monte, Mark Taylor

Publication number: 20150106708Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for capturing and sharing user's exploration and analysis are described herein. In an aspect, the method includes capturing a path traversed by a user as a thread. The thread comprises one or more user interfaces (UIs) traversed by the user in a hierarchical topology within at least one document. When the user traversed back on one or more sub-paths included within the path, one or more UIs corresponding to the one or more sub-paths is removed from the thread or reinstated in the thread. Once the path traversed by the user or the thread is captured, an option is provided for naming and storing the thread. The stored thread can be displayed, shared, annotated, and exported in other applications.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2014Publication date: April 16, 2015Inventors: CHARLES MONTE, RICHARD RATKOWSKI

Publication number: 20150106748Abstract: Various embodiments of systems and methods for document exploration, analysis, and collaboration are described herein. In an aspect, the method includes receiving a command for displaying a document. Upon receiving the command, it is determined whether the document includes an erroneous data. Based upon the determination, the document is displayed along with a highlighted erroneous data. A primary mode of operation and/or the secondary mode of operation is preformed on the highlighted erroneous data. When the primary mode of operation is performed, one or more sub-data constituting the erroneous data is displayed. When the secondary mode of operation is performed on the erroneous data, a cell action menu is displayed to enable user perform at least one of sharing the erroneous data to one or more recipients, annotating the erroneous data, marking the erroneous data as favorite, and exporting the erroneous data to other application.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2014Publication date: April 16, 2015Inventors: CHARLES MONTE, RICHARD RATKOWSKI

Publication number: 20140026088Abstract: A user interface (e.g. to a mobile device) integrates temporal and geographic information in an intimate and flexible manner. A view engine presents views of geographic information (such as points of origin, destinations, preferred/alternative routes) closely linked with associated time information (such as scheduled delivery times, current actual time, estimated transit times etc.). As a user manipulates an input (e.g. a timebar) to move forward and backward in time, the interface adjusts correspondingly to display geographic information relevant to the selected time. Conversely, as a user manipulates geographic information (e.g. a map), the interface may adjust correspondingly to display relevant temporal information. Time information may be afforded by the interface to the user through the use of color and/or movement of displayed items. As an aid to use, the interface may further include an input dedicated to returning the user to the present time and geographical location display.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 17, 2012Publication date: January 23, 2014Applicant: SAP AGInventor: Charles Monte

Publication number: 20050148331Abstract: A system for providing presence status for a mobile device is provided. The system comprises a monitoring unit for monitoring changes in the presence status of the mobile device; and a transmitter for transmitting presence status data to a server system, in response to detecting a change in the presence status of the mobile device, wherein the presence status indicates whether the mobile device can engage in a data communication session, and wherein the server system notifies a second mobile device of the presence status of the mobile device, in real time.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2004Publication date: July 7, 2005Inventors: Amir Sharon, Charles Monte, Vladimir Holostov, Amit Shackak

Patent number: 5183398Abstract: An apparatus and method for instruction of a student which includes interactive guidance of the student through a series of lesson frames includes providing the student with a keyboard having a plurality of keys corresponding to the notes of a musical scale and generating a key relation signal in response to each depressed or released key. A video display has an audio tone generator associated therewith enabling the student to respond to the visually displayed images and audio tones by selecting one or more of the keys on the keyboard. The student is presented with a lesson frame representing an instructional activity requiring a response by the student on the keyboard. The student keyboard response is compared with a performance standard and an absolute performance evaluation result is generated. The absolute performance evaluation result is compared with an acceptable achievement level for the particular instructional activity and a next frame selection signal is generated.Type: GrantFiled: June 1, 1990Date of Patent: February 2, 1993Assignee: The Software ToolworksInventors: Charles Monte, Norman A. Worthington, III, Jonathan Mandel, Gary F. Davenport
