  • Publication number: 20140181065
    Abstract: A method and medium are provided for generating shortened media titles. The length of a media title is constrained by the physical space allotted to it on a display device. Interfering and inaudible portions are removed from the media title. The media title is then split at join phrases in order to create multiple substrings. The multiple substrings are ranked according to relevance and audibility. The highest ranked substring is either stored or displayed.

  • Patent number: 7607066
    Abstract: Suggested corrections for a code error are provided by a compiler or code editor, for example. Thus, there is much less ambiguity about how an error should be corrected. Preferably, a predetermined number of suggested corrections are presented to the user (e.g., up to three suggestions), and the user can choose a desired suggested correction. Corrections for a given error can be made, not only at the location of the error, but throughout the code document, or other files in the user's solution. Furthermore, by undoing one correction and trying another, the user can go through all of the suggested corrections to determine which suggestion would be most preferable.
