Abstract: Provided is a system and method which provides visually-compacted search results with attribute information embedded therein. In one example, the method may include receiving, via a user interface, a search request based on a set of attributes, identifying search results that match the search request based on attributes of the search results with respect to the set of attributes, and displaying, via the user interface, a plurality of circular objects corresponding to the plurality of search results, respectively, each circular object comprising a round-shaped outer bar arranged around an outer boundary of the circular object which includes attribute information of a search result corresponding to the circular object embedded therein.

Abstract: Method and system of telecommunication between at least two users over a telecommunications network, wherein the first user is connected to the telecommunications network via a first terminal and the second user via a second terminal, and wherein a virtual representative is allocated to each user. A first virtual representative is allocated to the first user and a second virtual representative to the second user. The first and second virtual representatives are presented on the first terminal and on the second terminal.

Abstract: A communication system for communicating includes a window-based graphical user interface and a graphical element. The window-based graphical user interface is displayed on a display device. The window-based graphical user interface includes an area defined as a window, and the area is displayed transparently. The graphical element includes non-transparent pixels displayed in the window.

Abstract: A method and device which provides a selection menu allocated to a displayed symbol is provided. A graphic display unit has a display interface and an input device that controls a pointer on the display interface. A control unit drives the display unit such that upon activation of a predefined function, selection elements are represented on the display interface so that an image form of the displayed symbol can be selected using the selection elements. The control unit also drives the display unit such that when the pointer of the input device is positioned over one of the selection elements, the selection element is animated.

Abstract: A method and device for providing at least one matched communication window for communication with a communication partner in an application on a terminal of a user is provided. Depending on the call of a program function, either a first communication window having a particular size and a particular functionality, or a second communication window having a different size and at least a partially different functionality is displayed. In addition, the first or second communication window is displayed depending on a type of communication provided in the program function.

Abstract: A method and device for providing a selection menu allocated to a displayed symbol on a graphic display unit is provided. A user can perform a predefined action with an input device, and when the predefined action is detected in a spatial relationship to the displayed symbol, a selection menu enclosing the displayed symbol is displayed. The selection menu has a number of menu items which, when one of the menu items is selected, a function of the user program corresponding to the selected menu item can be executed. The selection menu is functionally and graphically allocated to the displayed symbol.
