Abstract: A pixel structure and an organic light emitting display are disclosed. The pixel structure includes a plurality of pixels which includes a plurality of sub-pixels. At least one pixel forms a pixel unit, and longitudinally adjacent pixel units are arranged in a vertical mirror image, and/or laterally adjacent pixel units are arranged in a horizontal mirror image. The present disclosure may increase the area of mask opening during evaporation, reduce the difficulty of mask production process, and reduce the evaporation process difficulty by a reasonable pixel arrangement structure and allowing sub-pixels of adjacent pixels to share one mask opening to evaporate. It does not need to preset a gap during evaporating the sub-pixels of adjacent pixels of the mask, thereby a real high PPI is achieved while keeping the opening ratio. In addition, the present disclosure can further increase the strength of the mask.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed to determine communications receiver parameters from multiple channels of a received communications signal and to configure and/or adjust communications receiver parameters to acquire one or more channels from among the multiple channels of the received communications signal. A communications receiver observes a multi-channel communication signal as it passes through a communication channel. The communications receiver determines one or more communications receiver parameters from the multiple channels of the received communications signal. The communications receiver configures and/or adjusts communications receiver parameters to acquire the one or more channels from among the multiple channels of the received communications signal.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments are disclosed that are configured to generate replenishment parameters for use by an external replenishment system. In one embodiment, sales statistics are generated for an item based at least in part on historical sales data for the item. A determination is made as to if demand forecast data is available for the item. If demand forecast data is not available, an order-point value for the item is generated based at least in part on the sales statistics. If demand forecast data is available, demand forecast statistics are generated and the order-point value is generated based at least in part on the sales statistics and the demand forecast statistics. An order-up-to-level is generated based at least in part on the order-point value.

Abstract: Techniques to allow for ease of navigation within a photo browsing interface of a social networking system. In one embodiment, a designation of a first image for sharing is received from within at least one of a single-image view and a camera view. Based on the designation, the first image is added to a communication. The designation may be based on a user selection of an option provided by an interface of a mobile device. The first image may be received from within a social networking application or from within a dedicated camera application. In another embodiment, the privacy level of the communication and the designated images is based on the privacy setting of a user. The communication and the designated images may contain tag data identifying one or more people on a social networking system. In an alternative embodiment, the privacy level of the communication and designated images is adjusted according to the one or more people identified in the tag data.

Abstract: A transmitter's operation is characterized using components having relatively low cost and low complexity. A device includes comparator(s) that compare a transmitter's analog output to predetermined level(s) to generate count(s) associated with analog output range bin(s). Each of the predetermined levels is associated with a corresponding one of the analog output range bins. A transfer function of the transmitter is generated using the comparison count values associated with the analog output range bin(s). A histogram may be generated from the comparison count values associated with the various analog output range bins. An equalizer is implemented to process data that will be transmitted by the transmitter. The equalizer uses equalizer parameter(s) that are selected based on the characterization of the transmitter (e.g., its transfer function, its histogram, etc.). The equalizer may use default or start up parameters until the transmitter's operation is characterized.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments for providing management of retail forecasts associated with a computer application are described. In one embodiment, historical demand data associated with a retail item sold at a retail location is read from an input data structure associated with the computer application. A determination is made as to when and where an extra retail period occurs in a forecast time domain. Forecasted demand data is generated for retail periods of the forecast time domain, except the extra retail period, based on the historical demand data. Forecasted demand data is generated for the extra retail period based on a portion of the forecasted demand data for the retail periods of the forecast time domain. An output data structure is transformed by populating the output data structure with the forecasted demand data for the retail periods, including the extra retail period, of the forecast time domain.
