  • Publication number: 20120086638
    Abstract: A multi-area handwriting input system and a method thereof are provided. The system and the method provide multiple input areas and one candidate words display area in a display interface. When a first handwritten trail is entered in the first input area, if the user does not select any of the first candidate words as the input, then the system and the method will determine whether any of the second candidate words identified from the second handwritten trail in the second input area can be combined with any of the first candidate words. If such a combination is found, then the invention displays the combined words in the candidate words display area for selection. If not, then the invention temporarily uses the first candidate word with the highest priority in display order number as an input word and displays the second candidate words for selection. Therefore, the system and method thereof can enhance the efficiency of handwritten word identification.

  • Publication number: 20110252414
    Abstract: System and method using separate modules to update software separates an update program into a pre-update module and a core module.
