Abstract: A system and method is described that maintains a record of research performed by a user of an information retrieval system in a manner that reduces the amount of work required by the user to maintain such a record. The system and method obtains information implicitly generated through the interaction of the user with the information retrieval system while performing research and uses such information to automatically construct a research document for the user about a particular research topic. The research document or a means of access thereto is then presented to the user. The research document is configured to maintain both the implicitly-generated data recorded by the system as well as data explicitly provided or collected by the user, such as retrieved document content and user notes, in a manner that is highly-organized and easy to access, augment, and maintain.

Abstract: Systems and methods for improving wireless access point communications are provided. Some embodiments contemplate filtering operations such that two or more radios can be used in the 5 GHz or 2.4 GHz band without interfering with each other. Some embodiments employ discrete Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA) and Power Amplifiers (PA) as well as frontend modules. In some examples, filtering may be primarily used on the receiving side to filter out other signals in 5 GHz before they are amplified by an external LNA or LNAs, e.g., as integrated in a WLAN chipset. Filtering may also be performed on the transmit side in some embodiments.

Abstract: Various of the disclosed embodiments concern efficiency improvements in wireless products. For example, some embodiments specify profiles for regional and custom-specified operational constraints. The profiles may be retrieved from across a network or stored locally upon the device. The profiles may specify various configuration adjustments that optimize the system's performance. For example, when possible, some embodiments may allow the system to operate at a lower power level and to thereby save energy. Various factors and conditions may be assessed in some embodiments prior to adjusting the existing power configuration.

Abstract: A character string input control method includes: receiving a first character string and a second character string that are input, where the first character string is input before the second character string; identifying the first character string, determining whether the first character string has a substring that matches the second character string, and if the first character string has a substring that matches the second character string, marking the substring with a block mark; and after an instruction for selecting the block mark is received, moving a cursor to a position corresponding to the selected block mark. After a user inputs the second character string, the second character string can be automatically matched in the first character string; that is, if the user needs to position the cursor, automatic positioning can be implemented simply by inputting a character corresponding to a position that needs to be located.

Abstract: A display module is provided including a display panel and an integrated circuit unit. The display panel is curved into a curved shape around a curvature axis and has a curved side, wherein the side also curves around the curvature axis. The integrated circuit unit is formed as a long stripe shape and has a first long side extending along an extending direction of the integrated circuit unit. The integrated circuit unit is directly or indirectly connected to the side, and the first long side extends along the extending direction of the curvature axis. Since the extending direction of the integrated circuit unit is aligned with the curvature axis, the integrated circuit unit will not be easily affected by the curvature of the display panel.

Abstract: A respiratory waveform recognition method comprises: (a) detecting a respiratory airflow in a respiratory cycle; (b) measuring an amplitude of the respiratory airflow and a duration of the respiratory cycle; (c) using a plurality of sampling points to determine an inspiration waveform and an expiration waveform according to the amplitude and the duration; (d) normalizing the amplitude and the duration of one of the inspiration waveform and the expiration waveform, so as to establish a normalized waveform; and (e) accumulating the differences between the normalized waveform and a reference waveform to calculate a flow index useful for the identification of a normal respiration state and an abnormal respiration state. A curve, such as a weighted curve or a standard waveform, is used for fitting of the inspiration waveform or the expiration waveform to calculate the differences, and the differences are accumulated to identify the normal respiration state and the abnormal respiration state.
