Abstract: A tile-based user interface (UI) may be presented on a display device in tile view in full-screen view. The underlying application is active whether the UI is in tile view or in full-screen view, and may generate data that can be presented via the UI. In tile view, the UI may present abbreviated representations of information generated by the underlying application. In full-screen view, the UI may present detailed representations of information, including graphical UI elements and data elements that were not presented in the tile view UI.

Abstract: Techniques are described for generating and presenting alternative organizational views for an organizational chart being presented inside a browser window. These different organizational views can organize the contents of the organizational chart based on different dimensions, thus allowing the user to group employees within the organizational chart across different dimensions. Advantages of presenting these different groupings is to allow the managers to quickly check the status of their direct reports.

Abstract: Techniques are described for exporting organizational charts being presented inside a browser window. The system can present an export canvas that identifies the portion of the organizational chart that is to be exported. In some embodiments, the export canvas can be automatically adjusted to prevent collisions with tiles within the organizational chart. In some examples, the export canvas can be presented on a different layer than the organizational chart, thus allowing the export canvas to move around freely without disrupting the underlying organizational chart.

Abstract: Techniques are described for dynamically adjusting the layout of an organizational chart being presented inside a browser window. Adjusting the layout of the organization chart has certain advantages such as ensuring that the organizational chart can be displayed in the browser window with minimal scrolling. The direct reports of a manager can be presented as a matrix in the organizational chart when the manager is selected. In one example, the layout of the matrix can be a vertical vector or a two dimensional vector depending on the number of direct reports the manager has. In another example, the layout of the matrix can change depending on the space available within the browser window to display the matrix. In other examples, the organizational chart can also be scaled based on the screen resolution or screen size of the client device that is presenting the organizational chart.

Abstract: An organizational chart view can include a plurality of icons each representing a person in an organization that are arranged to reflect a hierarchical organizational structure of the organization. A received first user input can include designation of two or more of the plurality of icons as part of a selected population, and a received second user input can include a selection of an analytical view to be applied to the selected population. The organizational chart view can be morphed to the selected analytical view, for example by generating animation effects to translate the plurality of icons in the selected population to form the selected analytical view.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for fabricating a semi-hermetic scroll compressor and its structure, especially to the method for fabricating the structure of the semi-hermetic scroll compressor being by way of assembling a plurality of sub-casings with fixing design therein and fewer compressor elements. The method comprise: (1) having a plurality of sub-casings with fixing design, the fixing design being initially configured inside at least one internal surface of the sub-casings; (2) cooperating with the fixing design to compose of at least one fixing device, at least one driving device, at least one compressing device and a partition device in the plural sub-casings; (3) fastening the plural sub-casings together; (4) finishing the method.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a radial compliance of a compressor. Inside the compressor has a plurality of motion components relative to compressing operation. An oil-storing space is configured on the transmission member, oil is normally in the oil-storing space and splashed out via centrifugal force and inertia while the compressor initially being started for lubrication in advance. The motion components comprises a transmission shaft, an orbiting scroll member and a fixed scroll member, and a transmission member installed between the transmission shaft and the orbiting scroll member and a gap being between the transmission shaft and the orbiting scroll member, the orbiting scroll member being capable of leaking pressure automatically by means of the gap for damaging, to combine the transmission shaft and the orbiting scroll member via the transmission member being to function that the transmission shaft moving with the transmission member simultaneously in a same direction.

Abstract: A diagnostic tool (10) for testing fuel injectors (50) and their driver circuits (IDM), including associated wiring harnesses, in a fuel injection system of an engine in a motor vehicle. The tool has a driver-connection port (16) for connection to the driver circuits and an injector-connection port (18) for connection to the fuel injectors via jumper wiring harnesses. The tool can perform 1) a fuel injector test, by connecting an ohmmeter to the tool to measure injector coil resistance, 2) a driver-injector test, by connecting an oscilloscope to the tool to observe traces of electric current waveforms applied to the fuel injector, 3) a driver circuit test, by connecting the respective driver circuit to a load that simulates the load imposed by the respective fuel injector, and 4) a cylinder contribution test, by selectively disconnecting certain fuel injector actuators from their driver circuits while leaving the remaining fuel injector actuators connected to their driver circuits.

Abstract: A fluidized bed apparatus and method are disclosed for coating, granulating and/or drying particles. The particles are circulated within a chamber by means of circumferential air flow. A first gas stream moves upwardly through the chamber. A second gas stream enters the chamber through openings in the side wall of the chamber. The openings extend generally horizontally and tangential to the side wall so that the second gas is directed circumferentially in the chamber for three-dimensional rotation and circulation of the particles.
