Abstract: A method performed using a computer includes receiving a cumulative consumption value for a printing fluid corresponding to a supply from a printer at the computer. The method also includes calculating a plurality of variable values by way of the cumulative consumption value for the printing fluid, a statistically derived depletion quantity for the printing fluid, and an estimated time to ship a supply of replacement printing fluid to the printer to form calculated variable values. The method also includes causing the supply of replacement printing fluid to be shipped to the printer in accordance with the calculating.

Abstract: Interactive décor and systems and methods of printing an interactive pattern using an inkjet printer are disclosed. An interactive décor may comprise a substrate, and an interactive pattern printed on the substrate. The interactive pattern is addressable using a reader device, but is substantially indiscernible to a naked eye at a viewing distance. A decorative image is printed over the interactive pattern. The decorative image is predominant to the naked eye.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to tangible resources. For example, a method includes receiving, at a computer, a cumulative consumption value of a tangible resource from a device that consumes the tangible resource. The method also includes calculating a plurality of variable values by way of the cumulative consumption value, a statistically derived depletion quantity of the tangible resource, and an estimated time to ship a supply of replacement tangible resource to the device to form calculated variable values such that the calculating is performed at least in part by the computer. The method further includes causing the supply of replacement tangible resource to be shipped to the device in accordance with the calculating.

Abstract: A method includes defining a surface within a first captured image of an environment. The defined surface is identified in a second captured image of the environment. A graphic is overlaid on the surface identified in the second captured image. The second captured image is caused to be displayed to preview the graphic in the environment.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to comparing artifacts and provide a novel and non-obvious method, system and computer program product for multi-contextual navigation of deltas in a hierarchy. In one embodiment of the invention, a method for multi-contextual navigation can include rendering objects for an artifact utilizing a default contextual view of the objects, selecting an object in the default contextual view and directing an inward navigation to a different object in the default contextual view. Notably, responsive to the directing of the inward navigation to the different object, a different contextual view can be provided for at least a portion of the objects defined by the different object.

Abstract: A method of printing includes firing a first group of one or more printheads at a moving medium at a first firing angle to the medium and firing a second group of one or more printheads at the moving medium at a second, different, firing angle to the medium.

Abstract: Described is a method for synchronizing interdependent artifacts that are each modified independent of a modification to the other artifact after a last synchronization. Each artifact has a plurality of elements and is of a different formant from the other artifact. The method includes generating a temporary artifact having all the elements of a last synchronized version of the first artifact and having all the elements of a latest version of the second artifact transformed as the first artifact. The temporary artifact is merged with a latest version of the first artifact to create a synchronized version of the first artifact. A synchronized version of the second artifact having all the elements of the latest version of the second artifact and having all the elements of the synchronized version of the first artifact transformed as the second artifact is generated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a calibration method for a printer having a mechanism for advancing a medium in a direction of media advance comprising the following steps: (a) providing a printhead, the printhead having a swath height in the direction of media advance; (b) providing an estimate of either the swath height or the characteristic of the mechanism; (c) printing a base pattern on a medium using the printhead; (d) printing an overlay pattern on the medium using the printhead to form an interference pattern; (e) advance the medium of a predetermined distance using the mechanism at a time between the printing of the base pattern and the printing of the overlay pattern; (f) analyze an optical evaluation of the interference pattern; (g) evaluate as either: (i) the swath height if the characteristic of the mechanism is known or estimated; or (ii) the characteristic of the mechanism if the swath height is known or estimated.

Abstract: A way to define an access control that scales to component architectures. Specifically, the present invention allows annotations to be added to objects, for example in the javadoc section of a Java object, to restrict access to that object. Each annotation comprises a tag that specifies a designated privilege and one or more designees to which the privilege applies. The annotations may designate access options such as which packages, classes, interfaces, fields and/or operations may be visible to another package, class, interface, field and/or operation; which classes are allowed to implement a particular interface; which classes are allowed to instantiate a particular class; and/or which classes/interfaces are allowed to extend a particular class/interface. The annotation may refer to allowed objects directly, may refer to a group of classes having similar names, and/or may use an alias, which refers to an external object designation.

The electronic document can have a defined structure. The method further can include determining a plurality of deltas between the different versions and determining relationships, between individual ones of the plurality of deltas according to the defined structure of the electronic document.
