Abstract: A magnetic multi-pole propulsion array system is applied to at least one external cathode and includes a plurality of magnetic multi-pole thrusters connected adjacent to each other. Each magnetic multi-pole thruster includes a propellant provider, a discharge chamber, an anode and a plurality of magnetic components. The propellant provider outputs propellant. The discharge chamber is connected with the propellant provider to accommodate the propellant. The anode is disposed inside the discharge chamber to generate an electric field. The plurality of magnetic components is respectively disposed on several sides of the discharge chamber. One of the several sides of the discharge chamber of the magnetic multi-pole thruster is applied for one side of a discharge chamber of another magnetic multi-pole thruster.

Abstract: A message transmission system, a receiving apparatus, a receiving method and a computer-readable recording medium thereof are provided. The message transmission system includes a transmitting apparatus, a receiving apparatus and a database. The transmitting apparatus transmits a broadcasting message, where the broadcasting message includes an identification code. The receiving apparatus forwards the identification code in response to receiving the broadcasting message. The database provides an intent content corresponding to the identification code without an application identification. The receiving apparatus presents a notification according to the intent content by an operation system (OS) without opening an application corresponding to the application identification in response to receiving the intent content. Accordingly, without installing an application for receiving a push message, the receiving apparatus still can receive the notification, and efficiency of push notification can be improved.

Abstract: Multilingual/cross-region search result merging is described. In various examples, a user enters a query to an information retrieval system and receives search results appropriate to different combinations of human language and geographical region, and where the combinations are selected according to features describing intent of the query. In examples, query intent features are computed using a query understanding component (e.g. a trained query intent classifier) and used, optionally with other query features, to identify combinations of human language and geographical region from a stored profile. In examples the stored profile is computed using data about documents available to an information retrieval system and data about past search behavior. In examples, different combinations of language and region are used to retrieve search results which are merged. For example, a query is translated into another language while preserving calculated intent features of the query.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a computer mouse with changeable holding part, including a body, an upper case and a location changing mechanism. The upper case is covered on the top surface of the body and can change locations. The location changing mechanism is for engaging the upper case and the body and allows the upper case to cover the top surface of the body, as well as allows the upper case to change the engaging location with the body and be engaged together at the new location after the change.

Abstract: A computer mouse comprises a main body, a top flip cover, a battery compartment, and flip mechanism. The top flip cover is with shape similar to the top portion of the main body and arranged upon the top portion thereof. A battery compartment formed within the top portion of the main body and arranged beneath the top flip cover. The flip mechanism is engaged to hold the rear portion of the top flip cover with the rear portion of said main body, engaging the top flip cover to overlay the top portion of the main body in a releasably positioned manner, therefore the top flip cover is positioned to overlay the top portion of the main body of the mouse. With the engagement of the flip mechanism, the top flip cover can pop backward to a predetermined angel and expose the battery compartment.
