Abstract: A system and machine-implemented method for determining a language intent of a user submitted query is provided. A user query comprising text and a user location is received and a language usage signal based on the text of the user query is identified, wherein the language usage signal is associated with a first language. A second language associated with the user location is identified and a translation of the text of the user query from the first language to the second language is generated. A strength of the language usage signal is determined based on an amount of variation between the text of the user query and the translation of the text. When the strength of the language usage signal is greater than a predetermined threshold, an output language for the query is adjusted and results for the query are returned according to the output language.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for automatically configure a webpage to display a geographically focused internet offering. An interactive map is configured to, when displayed in a web browser, automatically detect one or more online marketing components associated with a currently displayed webpage. On an initial display or user-repositioning of the interactive map, the map transmits a geographic location displayed on the map to the marketing components. Each marketing component then displays one or more offerings related to the displayed area of interest.

Abstract: A system and machine-implemented method for determining a language intent of a user submitted query is provided. A user query comprising text is received and a location of the user based on the received user query is determined. At least one language usage signal from the text of the user query is identified. A strength of the at least one language usage signal is determined based on the received user query and the determined location of the user. When the strength of the at least one language usage signal is greater than a predetermined threshold, an output language for the query is adjusted based on the language usage signal. Results for the query are returned according to the output language.

Abstract: An instruction translator unit which receives an instruction stream from a main memory of a microprocessor, for latching data fields, for generating microinstructions necessary to emulate the function encoded in an instruction, and for transferring the data and microinstructions to a microinstruction execution unit over an output bus. The instruction unit includes an instruction decoder (ID) which interprets the fields of received instructions and generates single forced microinstructions and starting addresses of multiple-microinstruction routines. A microinstruction sequencer (MIS) accepts the forced microinstructions and the starting addresses and places on the output bus correct microinstruction sequences necessary to execute the received instruction. The microinstruction routines are stored in a read-only memory (ROM) in the MIS. The starting addresses received from the ID are used to index into and to fetch these microinstructions from the ROM.

Abstract: A microprocessor receives addresses and data from a peripheral subsystem for use in subsequently accessing portions of the main memory of a data processing system in a controlled and protected manner. Each of the addresses is used to interrogate an associative memory to determine if the address falls within one of the subranges for a "window" on the main memory address space. If the address matches, then it is used to develop a corresponding address on the main memory address space. The data associated with the peripheral subsystem address is then passed through the interface and into the main memory at the translated memory address. Data transfer is improved by buffering blocks of data on the microprocessor. Data bytes are written into the buffer at a slower rate than data blocks are read out of the buffer and into main memory. A buffer bypass register allows single bytes of data to be transferred to a single address by bypassing the buffer.

Abstract: An input/output processor architecture for providing an interface between peripheral subsystems and a generalized data processor. The interface processor enables data to be transferred between two address spaces (the generalized data processor address space and an external processor I/O address space) by mapping a portion of the I/O address space into a portion of the GDP address space. This mapping facility provides the peripheral subsystem with a "window" into the associated GDP subsystem. It accepts addresses within a certain subrange, or subranges, and translates them into references into one or more GDP data segments.A function-request facility provides a functional capability over certain objects within the GDP address space.

Abstract: The data processing capacity of a practical semiconductor computer system, having both local and system buses, can be expanded both in degree of complexity and magnitude by providing a method and means for cooperatively and concurrently coprocessing digital information among a plurality of processors sharing the same local bus and collectively accessing the system bus as a system unit. In other words, a central processor has primary control and access to a local bus and may have access to a system or common bus shared among many other processors. Also sharing the local bus with the central processor is a plurality of specialized or dedicated processors which are continuously apprised of or actively monitor the internal operational status and operation then being performed by the central processor. The active monitoring of the activity of the other processors sharing the local bus distinguishes these dedicated processors from conventional direct memory accessing processors.

Abstract: A random access memory is combined with a programmable logic array to count time pulses within an integrated circuit watch. A master oscillator drives the internal timing clocks and serves as a time standard for a timing and control circuit means which manipulates data within the random access memory. The timing and control circuit may contain a programmable read-only memory so that words stored within the random access memory may be read, and manipulated, in a selected sequence. The programmable logic array increments the word selectively read from the random access memory, compares it to a limit value and generates one or more flags according to the desired data manipulation. Words stored within the random access memory may be selectively displayed by a liquid crystal display or light emitting diode display in a selected format determined by the programmable read-only memory.
