Abstract: An improved graphical user interface (GUI) for use with a computing device that arranges information/icons in a circular or loop-like fashion. The GUI includes a plurality of nodes arranged on a circular element. The GUI may display only a portion of the circular element and associated nodes and may permit the user to rotate the circular element to rotate the circular element to bring the nodes into the displayed area. The user may select a node to access the selected node and bring a new sub-circle associated with that node into view (in a sub-circle embedded within a circle arrangement).

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for gathering, organizing, and utilizing information about users utilizing a gaming or other interface can include generating, at a computing device having one or more processors, a customized user interface for each of a plurality of users. The customized user interface can present a series of questions to its associated user. The method can further include ingesting answers from each of the plurality of users and associating each user with his/her answers to form a user profile. A machine learning algorithm can be utilized to identify groupings of the plurality of users. Each particular grouping can include users whose user profile is in some manner more similar to the user profiles of other users in the particular grouping than to the user profiles of users in other groupings. The method can also include adapting the customized user interface for each user based on the user profiles.

Abstract: In an embodiment an EMC filter component includes a first interface, a second interface, a filter circuit, a mechanical connection and a DC-Link capacitor as a circuit element, wherein the filter circuit is electrically connected between the first interface and the second interface, wherein the mechanical connection is configured for mechanically connecting the EMC filter component to an external mounting location, and wherein the mechanical connection is configured for electrically connecting the filter circuit to a ground potential of the external mounting location.

Abstract: A capacitor includes an electrically insulating housing that encloses an interior volume, first and second conductive connection pads that are each configured as externally accessible points of electrical contact to internal electrodes of the capacitor that are disposed within the housing, and an active capacitor dielectric material disposed within the housing and being configured as a dielectric medium between the internal electrodes, the first conductive connection pad having a first planar contact surface that is substantially parallel to a first sidewall of the housing, the second conductive connection pad having a second planar contact surface that is substantially parallel to the first sidewall, the first and second planar contact surfaces being offset from one another in a direction that is orthogonal to the first sidewall.

Abstract: According to one aspect of the present invention there is provided a method for selecting a network address within a network. The method may comprise providing network address translation related information of a first user session, storing the network address translation related information of the first user session and selecting a network address for a subsequent second user session by taking into account the network address translation related information of the first user session for the selection.

Abstract: A toroidal core choke includes a toroidal core and an insulating part. The insulating part includes a separating device for separating winding spaces on the toroidal core. The separating device includes a divider and a spacer on an end of the divider. A width of the divider is less than a width of the spacer.

Abstract: A mounting device for a toroidal core, preferably insertable into a toroidal core, has a catch device and thus fixable on a counterpart, as well as a support device for a toroidal core choke. The support device has at least one catch device on which mounting device can be fixed.
