Patent number: 11587044Abstract: Technologies are described herein for a user interface uniting two primary components, a list view and a reading pane, within a message reading application. Technologies are also described for synchronizing status and parameters between the two primary user interface components. In particular, a user interface for reading messages can represent all components of a conversation with both a list view for presenting a message map, and a reading pane for presenting a content view. The list view can present a list of messages grouped by conversation. The reading pane window can contain smaller windows or frames. Each of the smaller windows or frames can contain a message within a given conversation. Synchronization provided between the list view and a reading pane can allow message selection in one of the user interface components to cause display and selection of the corresponding message in the other user interface component.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2021Date of Patent: February 21, 2023Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Robert Emmett Mccann, Michael Anthony Affronti, Andrew Russell Brauninger, Jorge Pereira, James J.

Patent number: 9529864Abstract: User insights derived from communication data may be provided. Communications associated with a user may be collected and analyzed to derive insights about the user. The insight may then be provided to the user, such as for modifying an application functionality, creating a message processing rule, providing new information to the user, and updating an application display or user interface.Type: GrantFiled: August 28, 2009Date of Patent: December 27, 2016Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Tore L.

Patent number: 8631079Abstract: Technologies are described herein for displaying a list of file attachments associated with a message thread an email application. The messages associated with the message thread are identified, along with any file attachments attached to those messages. An aggregated attachment list is generated containing an entry for each file attachment associated with the message thread. The aggregated attachment list associated with the message thread is then displayed in a window of the email application.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2008Date of Patent: January 14, 2014Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Michael Anthony Affronti, Andrew Russell Brauninger, James J.

Patent number: 8225219Abstract: Unique content in interrelated email messages is identified and duplicate content filtered out for user friendly display of a flow of exchange within the interrelated messages. Follow-on messages such as replies or forwards are compared to the original message to determine which part of a follow-on message is not present in the original message and is a unique part of the follow-on message. The comparison includes parsing of the messages to extract user viewable parts determination of which extracted part is the last message part containing unique information. Once the unique message part is determined, message body that excludes everything after the unique part including the headers is be displayed.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2008Date of Patent: July 17, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: James J.

Publication number: 20090234924Abstract: This disclosure describes techniques of automatically associating messages with conversations. As described in this disclosure, when a messaging application stores a message, the messaging application uses a set of heuristics to identify a conversation associated with the message. After identifying the conversation associated with the message, an interface may be presented that group together messages that are associated with common conversations. Such an interface may enable individuals to quickly locate and read messages associated with a conversation.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2008Publication date: September 17, 2009Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: James J.

Patent number: 7570112Abstract: A preamplifier has a variable input impedance. The input impedance is tailored with the signal level to maintain a more optimal performance. The input impedance is varied by at least two amplifiers connected in parallel. Each amplifier has a different input impedance. By controlling the bias currents to the amplifiers, the contribution to the input impedance of the parallel amplifiers is controlled. Gradual variation in input impedance may be obtained by gradual variation in relative contribution by the different amplifiers.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2005Date of Patent: August 4, 2009Assignee: Siemens Medical Solutions USA, Inc.Inventors: Kevin S.

Publication number: 20090183096Abstract: Emails are modeled as conversations, which are stand-alone email artifacts distinct from conventional folders. Conversations are arranged to reference messages, to have properties and an existence of their own, and present messages to a user reflecting the relationships between the messages as part of a conversation. Emails aggregated under a conversation may be assigned conversation related attributes in addition to the distinct attributes of the conversation itself. Conversations may be processed specially based on their characteristics such as being muted, branched into sub-conversations, and the like.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 14, 2008Publication date: July 16, 2009Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: James J.

Patent number: 6493400Abstract: An RF transmission system including an RF power amplifier, said system comprising an harmonic cancellation processor. The harmonic cancellation processor produces a predistorted RF input signal to the RF amplifier which cancels harmonic energy generated by the amplifier. The RF output of the amplifier is sampled and stored in the harmonic cancellation processor.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 1999Date of Patent: December 10, 2002Assignee: Bae Systems Aerospace Electronics Inc.Inventors: John S.
