Abstract: Document authoring that involves illustrating pen input in an authoring environment is herein improved to provide greater control of colors and patterns for representing the pen input in a graphical user interface. Colors and patterns are provided as effects that are applied to the illustrated pen input so that multiple textures or colors may be applied to the illustrated pen input without requiring the user to manually signal a switch in texture or colors or using multiple objects to represent the pen input. In various aspects, effects may be layered on top of each other, and the effects may be stretched or tiled depending on the size of the illustrated pen input.

Abstract: A system and process are disclosed for providing users with page previews during page loading events, such that the delay experienced before the display of page content is reduced. The previews may include screenshots of the pages or of portions thereof, and may be generated periodically and cached by the system for delivery to user devices. The process of generating and delivering the previews via the Internet or some other network may be implemented partly or wholly within an intermediary system that sits logically between the user devices and content servers. The process may be used with existing browsers without the need for any browser modifications, or may be used with a “preview-aware” browser that includes special program code for providing page previews.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for providing services that are adapted to the access networks of end users (10). By providing defined information to a residential gateway (110) and/or an access network provider (12) a service provider (18) enables the access network provider (12) to open a dedicated communications channel (20) between itself and the service provider. The service provider can use this channel to request information about the capabilities of the end user's access network as well as for requesting conditioning of data streams sent to said end user.

Abstract: A method of measuring at least one point on an artefact to be inspected that is located within a positioning apparatus' measurement volume, the method comprising, obtaining at least two images of the artefact obtained from different perspectives and, based on a given nominal location of a predetermined point to be measured within said positioning apparatus' measurement volume, determine the location of said predetermined point in each of the at least two images.

Abstract: A tool for action tool-integrated inking input is provided. In one example, a user selects an inking tool and further selects an action functionality to apply to the inking tool. The inking tool is highlighted and updated to display the selected functionality. In another example, the user selects an action tool having a particular functionality and further selects inking properties to apply to the action tool. The action tool is highlighted and updated to display the selected inking properties. In another example, a tool is provided, and the user selects an action functionality and inking properties to apply to the tool. The action tool is updated to illustrate the selected functionality and properties. In another example, the user selects an inking tool and an action tool to apply properties associated with the inking tool and the functionality associated with the action tool to an active tool.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus is provided having a hierarchy of layers comprising at least two data processing layers, each data processing layer configured to receive data and to generate processed data for passing to a next lower layer in said hierarchy, according to a protocol specific to that data processing layer. Each data processing layer is configured intermittently to add synchronization information to its processed data, the synchronization information providing semantic information required to interpret the processed data. Each data processing layer is further configured to output its synchronization information in response to a synchronization request signal received from a lower layer in said hierarchy, and at least one data processing layer is configured, when outputting its synchronization information, to issue its synchronization request signal to a higher layer in the hierarchy.

Abstract: The intelligent detection and manipulation of objects via freehand input is provided herein to enable users greater and more intuitive control of objects interacted with via freehand inputs. Users are enabled to expose the values of various features of objects and to constrain those features to remain at a given value or convert to a given value and remain there as the user continues to interact with the object via freehand inputs.

Abstract: Recognition of freehand input enables gestures and objects to be recognized as tables and actions taken in relation to tables. For example, drawing a rectangle intersected by horizontal and vertical lines will create a table object that functions as a table within a productivity application, but may inherit visual cues from the strokes used to draw it. Users are enabled to move, add to, remove from, reorganize, delete, and perform value-based calculations on and in the table via freeform input.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and/or kits for detecting an analyte in a sample. Some embodiments provide a method for detecting a non-nucleic acid analyte in a sample using a solid substrate comprising a bound immobilisation agent and an antibody capture agent and a detectable agent, which can bind to the analyte. The antibody capture agent comprises, at a plurality of sites, a ligand for the immobilisation agent. A complex between the analyte, the antibody capture agent and a detectable agent is formed and immobilised on the solid substrate by binding between the immobilisation agent and the ligand. In some embodiments, the ligand and the immobilisation agent are a binding pair comprising a peptide tag and an anti-peptide tag antibody.

Abstract: Improved accuracy and user interaction efficiency for selecting a grouping of digital strokes is provided. In response to receiving an indication of a selection input on or in proximity to a digital stroke, a determination is made as to whether the digital stroke is part of an existing group of digital strokes. When the digital stroke is not part of an existing group, an analysis of the digital stroke and other digital strokes within a calculated boundary is performed for determining which strokes should be included in a stroke grouping. A stroke grouping is generated based on the determination. Accordingly, in response to the selection input on or in proximity to the digital stroke, the selection is expanded to the stroke grouping, thus improving the accuracy of the selection gesture and improving computer efficiency.
