Abstract: An electronic system includes a first wireless transceiving module having a device identification code and a portable device. The portable device may include a second wireless transceiving module, and a processor. The second wireless transceiving module obtains the device identification code from the first wireless transceiving module. When the second wireless transceiving module obtains the device identification code from the first wireless transceiving module, the processor checks whether the device identification code matches to a pre-built identification code; and when the device identification code matches to the pre-built identification code, the portable device automatically determines a position of the portable device, and displays a map related to the position of the portable device in a display.

Abstract: The invention discloses a mobile communication device, an electronic device and a mobile network sharing method between these two devices. The mobile communication device includes a communication module and a control unit. The communication module includes a mobile communication unit and a local communication unit. The mobile communication unit is used for connecting to a mobile communication network. The local communication unit has an active mode and a passive mode. The control unit is coupled to the communication module. When a trigger signal from an electronic device is received by the local communication unit under the passive mode, the control unit switches the local communication unit into the active mode, so as to connect the electronic device to the mobile communication network via the local communication unit and the mobile communication unit.

Abstract: An electronic system includes a first wireless transceiving module having a device identification code and a portable device. The portable device may include a second wireless transceiving module, a storage module, and a processor. The second wireless transceiving module obtains the device identification code from the first wireless transceiving module. The storage module may store at least one set of data, wherein each set of data may comprise a pre-built identification code and a corresponding pre-assigned instruction. When the second wireless transceiving module obtains the device identification code from the first wireless transceiving module, the processor may be able to search for the at least one set of data to check whether the device identification code matches to the pre-built identification code stored in the storage module; and when the device identification code matches to the pre-built identification code, the processor may automatically execute the corresponding pre-assigned instruction.

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for synchronizing certain periodic activities and/or processes in a computer system or device. The synchronization allows more efficient use of the computer system's or device's processing capabilities, and may result in conservation of electrical power. In one example embodiment, a periodic scheduler is implemented to periodically verify the continued existence of critical processes operating in the computer system or device. Corrective, or other appropriate, action may be taken in the event of a failure of a critical process. A schedule list, which may be a linked list, may be used to track the periodic processes that are to occur. Upon registration of a critical process, the schedule list may be modified to synchronize the new periodic process with the existing schedule list.

Abstract: An airlift pallet for securing a container roll-in/out platform and cargo thereon within an aircraft by an aircraft cargo handling system. The pallet includes a base for supporting the platform and its cargo. The base includes a plurality of mounting receptacles adapted to receive and retain a respective lock member. Each lock member is removably secured to the mounting receptacle by a removable pin. Each lock member includes a rotatable head that is adapted to be inserted into and secured to the platform. The lock members secure the platform and its cargo to the airlift pallet.

Abstract: Described is a mechanism for mobile devices that allows a user to set a time at which the mobile device will automatically power down, and another time at which the mobile device will wake up. The mechanism further allows the mobile device to be awakened earlier than the wake up time if an event is scheduled to occur prior to the wake up time. Furthermore, the mechanism provides for the cancellation of the automatic power down or wake up, based on user input.

Abstract: An interchangeable, plug-in, in-line module for attenuating electrical noise wherein a plurality of plug-in terminals are electrically coupled to an attenuating circuit in the form of a filter network array including a plurality of discrete components electrically interconnected by conductive traces or printed circuits formed on an insulating board to facilitate a plug-in connection to an electrical system. The attenuating circuit is electrically connected to a conductive retainer which is adapted to receive and retain a plastic motor end cover therein and to make electrical contact with a conductive frame member of the motor. The attenuating circuit includes four ferrite choke beads each having axial through holes or bores through which through-connectors of the terminals pass. The choke beads are supported by an insulating carrier so that the through-connectors can be electrically coupled to the conductive traces.
