Patent number: 12134308Abstract: A window may have a structural window layers such as an inner glass layer and an outer glass layer. The inner glass layer may be a layer of tempered glass. The outer glass layer may be a laminated glass layer. The inner and outer glass layers may be separated by an air gap. One or more reflection suppression layers such as antireflection layers and/or circular polarizers may be incorporated into the window to suppress reflections of light from within the interior region off of the window back towards the interior region. The antireflection layers may be formed on one or both surfaces of the inner glass and one or both surfaces of the outer glass. An electrically adjustable layer such as a guest-host liquid crystal light modulator layer or other electrically adjustable optical component layer may be interposed between the outer glass layer and the air gap.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2020Date of Patent: November 5, 2024Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: David E.

Patent number: 10177964Abstract: A system and method to identify a call end associated with a problem that caused failure of an internet protocol-based call. The method includes accessing a first call detail record (CDR) set including at least one CDR associated with a first call end of the failed call, determining from the first CDR set indicators of failure attribution of the failed call, determining whether fault for failure of the failed call is attributed to the first call end based on the indicators of failure attribution; outputting an indication that the fault is attributed to the first call end if it was determined that the fault is attributed to the first call end, and outputting the indication to indicate the first call end is acquitted of the fault if it was determined the fault is not attributed to the first call end.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2017Date of Patent: January 8, 2019Assignee: NetScout Systems, IncInventors: Anilkumar Kollipara, James E.

Patent number: 9008074Abstract: An Internet compatible dialer pad is used to dial into an Internet server to provide services similar to those found on the Plain Old Telephone System (“POTS”). The dialer pad has an integrated modem set, an extended keypad with alphanumeric entry keys and function keys, display screen and display electronics that renders visual call progress information to the user as well as other communications indicators and related information about the current Internet connection. The dialer uses the Public Switched Telephone System (“PSTN”) and standard LAN/WAN technology to give the user entry into a plurality of Internet calling functions. An Internet database is maintained and permits the dialing party to obtain callee information by entering alphanumeric characters via the dialer. Links from the PSTN to an Internet data base are not restricted to a specific digital data protocol.Type: GrantFiled: August 25, 2004Date of Patent: April 14, 2015Assignee: Verizon Patent and Licensing Inc.Inventor: James E.

Publication number: 20140261768Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a drainage channel in a floor member of a screened enclosure wall frame. The drainage channel facilitates drainage (typically of water from inside the screened enclosure to outside the screened enclosure), while also providing a barrier to insects and other pests. In a first embodiment, the drainage channel includes gate openings and corresponding gates disposed directly onto each side of a floor member of a screen frame. A variant of the first embodiment includes a weeping slot on at least one side of the drainage channel. In second and third embodiments, a section of the floor member is replaced with a drain insert. A drainage channel in the drain insert may include one or more gate openings and associated gates. The drainage channel in the drain insert may also include one or more weeping slots.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2014Publication date: September 18, 2014Inventors: James E. Wilson, Barbara M.

Publication number: 20140010924Abstract: A filled sugar candy made with a hard sugar candy outer shell encasing a liquid center filling is disclosed. The hard sugar candy outer shell consists essentially of sugar materials with a low moisture content, and with essentially no acid content. The center filling comprises at least about 63 dextrose equivalent (DE) corn syrup. The melted syrupy product is poured into molds and is allowed to cool, and the poured product becomes molded hard sugar candies. The candies can also be used to make brittle.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2012Publication date: January 9, 2014Applicant: WILMELTSInventors: James E. Wilson, Thomas Hinkemeyer

Patent number: 8441291Abstract: One or more PLLs are formed on an integrated circuit. Each PLL includes an interpolative divider configured as a digitally controlled oscillator, which receives a reference clock signal and supplies an output signal divided according to a divide ratio. A feedback divider is coupled to the output signal of the interpolative divider and supplies a divided output signal as a feedback signal. A phase detector receives the feedback signal and a clock signal to which the PLL locks. The phase detector supplies a phase error corresponding to a difference between the clock signal and the feedback signal and the divide ratio is adjusted according to the phase error.Type: GrantFiled: September 23, 2011Date of Patent: May 14, 2013Assignee: Silicon Laboratories Inc.Inventors: Susumu Hara, Adam B. Eldredge, Zhuo Fu, James E. Wilson

Publication number: 20030200876Abstract: A method and apparatus for continuously sterilizing and cooking packaged products. The packages are drawn through a hydrostatic-pressure cooker utilizing a cable-driven drive mechanism where clipped-packages are attached to the cable.
