Patent number: 9438554Abstract: Described herein are methods and systems for displaying an email conversation similar to an instant message format by integrating aspects of an email system with an instant messaging interface. In one aspect, messages may be sent over existing email channels using email protocols through email servers and an email system (e.g., email client and/or email server) may identify the messages as cross-platform messages (CPM) based on whether the message body includes either no or only predefined content, or the message includes a predefined unique identifier. If a message is identified as a CPM then the message is treated similar to an instant message and may be displayed in a threaded view. In some embodiments, messages having content in the body may be treated as conventional email messages.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2013Date of Patent: September 6, 2016Assignee: Citrix Systems, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Fleck, John McBride, Mark Templeton, Nathan Anderson

Publication number: 20100115458Abstract: A method and system for rendering a window from an extended virtual screen on a native display of a mobile computing device is described. The system includes a server that detects a server, a first window associated with an application executing on the server, the server outputting the application to an extended virtual screen; identifies coordinates associated with a position of the first window on the extended virtual screen; and transmits the coordinates of the first window to a mobile computing device to display the first window on a native display of the mobile computing device. The system also includes a mobile computing device that receives a gesture-based instruction on the native display; evaluates contents of a second window at a location where the gesture-based instruction is received; scrolls the contents of the second window if the contents include a scrollbar; and pans the contents of the second window if the contents exclude a scrollbar.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2009Publication date: May 6, 2010Inventors: Adam Marano, Christopher Fleck, Gus Pinto, Mark Templeton

Patent number: 7607492Abstract: An electric impact tool in which a rotating mass rotates in a forward direction to impact upon and transfer torque to an anvil, and rotates in a reverse direction opposite the forward direction in response to such impact. A direction sensor monitors the direction of rotation of the rotating mass, and a controller turns an electric motor on and off during respective forward and reverse rotation of the rotating mass. An energy storing mechanism may be used to absorb energy from reverse rotation of the rotating mass and release the absorbed energy to rotate the rotating mass in the forward direction. A controller may be used to store the angular position of the rotating mass upon each impact and turn off the motor prior to the following impact to avoid energizing the motor during stall.Type: GrantFiled: January 9, 2008Date of Patent: October 27, 2009Assignee: Ingersoll Rand CompanyInventors: Warren Andrew Seith, Mark Templeton McClung, William M. Ball, Jr., Daniel J. Becker

Patent number: 6973605Abstract: An embedded memory device having improved BISR capabilities is provided. The embedded memory device includes an internal clock signal for use in accessing a memory array having access to redundant memory cells during normal operation, and a stress clock signal, wherein each pulse of the stress clock signal is of a shorter duration than each pulse of the internal clock signal. Further included are a built-in self-test circuit that performs a built-in self-test using the stress clock signal, and a register that stores defective memory addresses detected by the built-in self-test circuit. Redundant control logic is also included that redirects memory access operations to the defective memory addresses to redundant memory cells.Type: GrantFiled: February 12, 2002Date of Patent: December 6, 2005Assignee: Artisan Components, Inc.Inventors: Mark Templeton, Dhrumil Gandhi

Patent number: 6957402Abstract: A method and apparatus for improving the manufacturability of Integrated Circuits (ICs) formed on semiconductor dies is described. A plurality of different designs for some or all of the standard cells are made available to the circuit designer. Each different design may address a different problem associated with different manufacturing processes or a different design related yield limiter. Each of the design variants is characterized indicating its relative ease of manufacture, or it's yield sensitivity to certain IC design factors. The designer, typically with assistance from computer aided tools, can then select the standard cell variant for each of the cell used in the IC design that best addresses his or her design constraints. In other embodiments, variant versions of I/O cells and memory cells could also be created and made available to the designer in a similar fashion.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2003Date of Patent: October 18, 2005Assignee: Artisan Components, Inc.Inventors: Mark Templeton, Dhrumil Gandhi

Patent number: 6862721Abstract: A method for testing a circuit is provided. The method includes providing a normal internal clock signal for use in accessing functional logic, where the functional logic has access to redundant functional logic during normal operation. The method then applies a stress clock signal to the functional logic, and each pulse of the stress clock signal is of a shorter duration than each pulse of the normal internal clock signal. Based on the applied stress clock signal, the method identifies logic elements of the functional logic that fail to operate as intended.Type: GrantFiled: September 17, 2003Date of Patent: March 1, 2005Assignee: Artisan Components, Inc.Inventors: Mark Templeton, Dhrumil Gandhi

Publication number: 20040004872Abstract: A method for identifying faulty and weak memory cells is provided. A normal internal clock signal for use in accessing a memory array is provided, wherein the memory array may contain redundant memory cells that can be accessed during normal operation. In addition, a test is performed on the memory array using a stress clock signal. Each pulse of the stress clock signal is of a shorter duration than each pulse of the normal internal clock signal. In this manner, memory cells that fail the test using the stress clock signal are identified as non-usable memory cells. In some embodiments, the normal internal clock signal is based on required read and write times for the memory cells of the memory array and a margin added to the required read and write times. Each pulse of the stress clock signal can be approximately equal to each pulse of the normal internal clock signal minus the margin.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 15, 2002Publication date: January 8, 2004Applicant: Artisan Components, Inc.Inventors: Mark Templeton, Dhrumil Gandhi
