  • Patent number: 11963325
    Abstract: A module ejection mechanism is adapted to be disposed on a rack and carries an expansion module. The module ejection mechanism includes a tray, a linkage member, and an operating member. When one end of the operating member outside the rack is pulled, the other end of the operating member drives the linkage member to pivot. When the linkage member pivots, the linkage member makes the tray move in an ejection direction. When the tray moves in the ejection direction, an abutting element of the tray is adapted to eject the expansion module from the rack.

  • Patent number: 11800673
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a device housing, a circuit board, and a board module. The device housing includes a restriction unit. The circuit board includes a circuit board connector, wherein the circuit board is disposed in the device housing. The board module includes a module housing, a module board, a module connector, and a preload unit. The module connector is disposed on the module board. The preload unit and the module board are disposed on the module housing. The preload unit is connected to the restriction unit and applies a first elastic force toward the restriction unit. The module connector can thus be sufficiently connected to the circuit board connector.

  • Patent number: 11531858
    Abstract: A system, method and computer program product, which given in input a question in natural language format, delivers personalized insights related to the answer. Personalized insights are selected among candidate insights mined from the data and ranked based on closeness to (mined) user-preference, relevance to the question, and surprise factor. Two core components include: Question analysis and meaningful insight look up and Multi-dimensional insight ranking. The Question analysis and meaningful insights lookup module performs a semantic analysis of the questions and, uses techniques including “templates” to build new questions which could uncover insights from the data. The Multi-dimensional insight ranking module takes in input a list of insights returned from Question analysis and meaningful insights lookup and rank such insights based on such factors as: relevance to the query, surprise factor, and user preferences.

  • Patent number: 7188150
    Abstract: A system and method that enables sharing of resources and materials on a worldwide basis is disclosed. This system and method creates a secure extranet, with member sites communicating through a shared mediator service. The extranet protects private information at each site, yet allows searching and sharing of resources by authorized users of any extranet site. A preferred embodiment is an extranet of Lotus Notes/Domino servers, where information can be shared via the extranet without requiring cross-certification or replication among the servers.

  • Patent number: 4570122
    Abstract: A method of reducing magnetic data recorded at latitudes close to the magnetic equator to the equator is disclosed. The result corrects magnetic field anomalies recorded with respect to geologic anomalies to more closely reflect the shape of the geologic anomalies. In the preferred embodiment, reduction-to-the-equator is carried out in the wave number domain using an operator ##EQU1## .
