Publication number: 20170199656Abstract: A method for scheduling an event in a calendar application is disclosed wherein the event is held at a fixed position on the screen of a device and a calendar grid is dragged relative to the event. The method is well-suited for touch devices and provides a way for the user to easily create and schedule events directly on a calendar grid without the need to enter event start and end times into a form. A view finder assists the user to set the desired start and end time. The view finder supports different zoom precisions which allow the user to enter start and end times of any granularity such as one minute granularity. A micro-dragging technique provides a way to easily select start and end times with high precision. The method may be extended to general applications where it is desirable to drag objects on a workspace.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 22, 2016Publication date: July 13, 2017Inventors: Ciprian Costa, Daniel Klausmeier

Publication number: 20140207511Abstract: A system and method for providing temporary and limited grants of calendar access is provided. An invitee or its proxy may provide an event planner or time broker with a particular grant of calendar access comprising a date range, particular days of the week, and a particular time interval. The grant of calendar access allows the event planner to more easily identify a block of time for scheduling the particular event, the invitee calendar being updated in real-time. In some embodiments, the event planner may schedule the event and place the event directly on the invitee's calendar.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2014Publication date: July 24, 2014Applicant: Skadool, Inc.Inventor: Daniel Klausmeier

Patent number: 8578301Abstract: Systems and methods for the organization of hierarchical events are disclosed. A parent event in a first calendar application workspace classifies a hierarchy of events. A child event child event corresponds to a hierarchy of events. Identification of the parent event and a new child event results in the display of the new child event in a second calendar application workspace, the new child event being a scheduled event in the hierarchy of events that does not indicate a calendaring conflict with the parent event. A collaborative organization environment for discussion concerning the new child event may be provided.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2007Date of Patent: November 5, 2013Assignee: Skadool, Inc.Inventor: Daniel Klausmeier

Patent number: 7173930Abstract: Data frames are converted to a format suitable for transparent, flexible concatenated transport such that a network element not supporting flexible concatenation may transparently pass the data frames. Flexible concatenation involves nonstandard data frames such as an STS-4c or an STS-Nc in which the time slots do not occupy rigidly defined contiguous time slots. In transparent flexible concatenation, the pointer from the parent time slot is used for each of the child time slots and the concatenation identifier is set to indicate no concatenation. In this way, the concatenated data appears to be a series of conventional STS-1s such that pointer processing may be successfully accomplished even by a network element not capable of handling non-standard concatenations. A downstream receive framer reconstructs the original STS-Nc based on the N STS-1s and a concatenation table the contents of which are shared between the transmit framer and the downstream receive framer.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2002Date of Patent: February 6, 2007Assignee: Ciena CorporationInventors: Tom Wellbaum, Daniel Klausmeier

Publication number: 20050157713Abstract: A distribution stage is disclosed comprising a plurality of inputs coupled to a plurality of first stage switching devices, a plurality of outputs coupled to a plurality of second stage switching devices, and a distribution configuration. The distribution configuration is configured to receive a plurality of bandwidth units (BU's) from each first stage switching device, and to distribute at least one BU from each first stage switching device to each second stage switching device, such that each second stage switching device is assured of receiving at least one BU from each first stage switching device. In effect, the distribution stage ensures that each first stage switching device has a logical link to each second stage switching device. In one embodiment, the distribution stage is configured in accordance with a distribution configuration that is static.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 2, 2003Publication date: July 21, 2005Inventors: Daniel Klausmeier, Edward Sprague
