  • Method and apparatus for providing conditional customization for generating a web site
    Patent number: 7152207
    Abstract: A technique for generating a web site in accordance with received data entry by: presenting a prompt for data entry; receiving a data entry in response to the prompt; presenting at least one additional prompt for data entry that is determined at least in part based upon the received data entry; receiving an additional data entry in response to each of the at least one additional prompts; determining at least one characteristic of at least one web site dimension of the web site based on the data entry; generating a multi-dimensional description of the web site based on the determined characteristics; retrieving web site data according to the generated multi-dimensional description of the web site; and generating the web site based upon the generated multi-dimensional description of the web site and the retrieved web site data.

  • Method and apparatus for generating and modifying multiple instances of element of a web site
    Patent number: 6697825
    Abstract: A technique for modifying a web site generated in accordance with received data entry by: determining at least one characteristic of at least one web site dimension of the web site based on the data entry; generating a multi-dimensional description of the web site based on the determined characteristics; retrieving web site data according to the generated multi-dimensional description of the web site; generating the web site based upon the generated multi-dimensional description of the web site and the retrieved web site data; receiving modification data modifying at least one of the determined characteristics; and regenerating the description of the web site based upon the modified characteristics.

  • Multi-chip device partitioning process
    Patent number: 5784290
    Abstract: An efficient method for partitioning, for example, FPGA devices is described which optimizes the number of devices required to implement a design. The method involves generating a hierarchical graph of a feasible bipartition of the cells of the design. Feasible pairs are merged, followed by flattening of the hierarchical graph. The number of I/O pins of the new partition is then reduced, upon which a hierarchical graph is derived. A perturbed partition is then generated, followed by restoration of feasibility.
