Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling access to documents retained by a document management and collaboration system is disclosed. The document management and collaboration system may generate one or more suggested privileges associated with one or more users. An access control policy may specify whether system-generated user privileges may be enforced. If they are enforced, access to one or more document may be made subject to the generated privileges.

Abstract: A method of synchronizing shared folders and files within a remote and local file system includes determining a remote and local file system state. The remote file system state includes remote hash values for remote instances of shared folders, shared sub-folders, shared files, shared sub-level files, and shared shortcuts. The local file system state includes a local hash values for local instances of shared folders, shared sub-folders, shared files, shared sub-level files, and shared shortcuts. The method also includes comparing the remote file system state and the local file system state to determine any differences in the hash values within the remote file system state and the local file system state and synchronizing any shared folder, shared sub-folder, or shared file having a differing value in the remote file system state and the local file system state across the local file system and the remote file system.

Abstract: Organizations maintain and generate large amounts of documentation and entities of these organizations often need to collaborate on generating and reviewing this information. There is a need to maintain and store this documentation remotely in such a way that the entities of these organizations may collaborate with each other. A document management a collaboration system is provided to enable entities to collaborate with each other. Furthermore, developers may interface with the document management and collaboration system to provide add-in services and components to the document management and collaboration system. These add-in service and components may expand the capabilities of the documents and collaborations enabled by the document management and collaboration system.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for document collaboration and management are disclosed. In the method and apparatus, a document may be incorporated in a document directory maintained by a document collaboration and management service. A portable representation underlay based on the document may be generated using one or more asynchronous workflows and the portable representation underlay may be provided in response to a user request.

Abstract: A heads up display (HUD) is provided. The HUD includes a projector configured to project a distorted representation of image data onto a non-planar surface. The HUD also includes warp image circuitry configured to store offsets to be applied to the image data to generate the distorted representation. The offsets represent respective distances for moving coordinates of a portion of pixels within the image data and the offsets are stored within a memory region of the warp image circuitry. The portion of pixels corresponds to vertices of polygons. The warp image circuitry is further configured to map the vertices of polygons to the non-planar surface. A method for projecting an image onto a warped surface is also provided.

Abstract: A vehicle having a heads up display (HUD) system is provided. The HUD system includes an image rendering device configured to provide a distorted representation of image data to a non-planar surface within a field of view of an occupant of the vehicle. Warp image circuitry configured to store offsets to be applied to the image data to generate the distorted representation provided to the image rendering device is included in the HUD system. The offsets represent respective distances for moving coordinates of a portion of pixels within the image data and the offsets are stored within a memory region of the warp image circuitry. The portion of pixels correspond to vertices of polygons. The offsets are derived through calibration data provided to the warp image circuitry. The calibration data is selected from one of a plurality of view positions for the occupant.

Abstract: A computer system includes an operator input device, a central processing unit (CPU), and a display device, such as a liquid crystal display (LCD) or cathode ray tube (CRT) providing a visible image to the computer user as an output of computer activity. The computer system includes a video display controller (VDC) with a graphics generator. This VDC receives image information, such as text or graphics generated by the CPU, or retrieved by the CPU from another facility (such as a CD-ROM) of the computer system, and responsively provides image signals driving the CRT or LCD display. The VDC includes a power saving controller implementing one of several available power saving modes dependent upon one or more of several possible inputs. Each of the power saving modes includes the same list of VDC functions which may individually be enabled or disabled in each power saving mode dependent upon a bit value entered into a register of the power saving controller.
