  • Publication number: 20140031090
    Abstract: Personal digital assistant devices are provided that query power subsystems to determine a level of battery power currently available for operating processes, and further determine a number of screen display changes that may be effected on a persistent display device at that determined level. If the determined number of screen display changes that may be effected at the determined level of available battery power fails to meet a specified minimum threshold number of images, the processing unit powers down subsystems of the personal digital assistant device and causes a highest listed image of a prioritized list of screen image instances to be displayed on the persistent display device, which persistently displays the image after a loss of power.

  • Publication number: 20140025926
    Abstract: A quantum information processor (QIP) may include a plurality of quantum registers, each quantum register containing at least one nuclear spin and at least one localized electronic spin. At least some of the quantum registers may be coherently coupled to each other by a dark spin chain that includes a series of optically unaddressable spins. Each quantum register may be optically addressable, so that quantum information can be initialized and read out optically from each register, and moved from one register to another through the dark spin chain, though an adiabatic sequential swap or through free-fermion state transfer. A scalable architecture for the QIP may include an array of super-plaquettes, each super-plaquette including a lattice of individually optically addressable plaquettes coupled to each other through dark spin chains, and separately controllable by confined microwave fields so as to permit parallel operations.

  • Publication number: 20130282847
    Abstract: There is set forth herein a computer program product, computing device, and method for displaying an email message. In one example, a computing device receives an input comprising at least one criterion for redacting email messages; stores the at least one criterion in a configuration of a client computer program; receives an email message having a field, the field comprising a first content; determines whether a condition of at least one of the email message and a current state of the computing device satisfies the at least one criterion stored in the configuration of the client computer program; and, in response to determining that the condition satisfies the at least one criterion, displays a second content in place of the first content in a user interface of the client computer program, wherein the second content is different than the first content.

  • Patent number: 8547090
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for increasing the sensitivity of a solid state electronic spin based magnetometer that makes use of individual electronic spins or ensembles of electronic spins in a solid-state lattice, for example NV centers in a diamond lattice. The electronic spins may be configured to undergo a Zeeman shift in energy level when photons of light are applied to the electronic spins followed by pulses of an RF field that is substantially transverse to the magnetic field being detected. The method may include coherently controlling the electronic spins by applying to the electronic spins a sequence of RF pulses that dynamically decouple the electronic spins from mutual spin-spin interactions and from interactions with the lattice. The sequence of RF pulses may be a Hahn spin-echo sequence, a Can Purcell Meiboom Gill sequence, or a MREV8 pulse sequence, by way of example.

  • Publication number: 20120284496
    Abstract: Illustrative embodiments include a method, system, and computer program product for estimating boot-time memory requirement of a data processing system. A data processing system identifies, using system configuration information associated with the data processing system, a set of components needed for booting up the data processing system. The data processing system determines a dependency of a component identified in the set of components, the component including a memory estimator program. The data processing system determines an ancestry of the component identified in the set of components. The data processing system receives, using the memory estimator program of the component, a boot-time memory requirement of the component. The data processing system calculates a total boot-time memory requirement. The data processing system determines whether an amount of real memory of the data processing system satisfies the total boot-time memory requirement.
