Patent number: 11187541Abstract: A method of requesting map data by a wireless communications device entails steps of predicting a future area of interest for which map data may be required, downloading the map data for the future area of interest, and then caching the map data for the future area of interest. Cached map data is thus available for rendering when the device moves into the future area of interest, thus expediting the generation of onscreen maps. Predicting the future area of interest can be accomplished, for example, by determining the direction of travel, by identifying a roadway upon which the device user is travelling, or by identifying a programmed route in a navigation application.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2009Date of Patent: November 30, 2021Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventors: Christophe Gibran, Robert Watt, Michael J. Crowley

Patent number: 9568016Abstract: An impeller may include a hub section, a plurality of blades, and a shroud. The hub section may be mounted on a rotatable shaft. The hub section may define a central opening for the rotatable shaft to extend therethrough and may define a plurality of holes disposed in a circular manner about the central opening. The plurality of blades may be connected to or integral with the hub section. The shroud may be connected to or integral with the hub section and the plurality of blades. The plurality of holes may be either through holes or partially drilled holes. A bottom of some or all of the partially drilled holes may be flat, conical, or rounded. Some or all of the partially drilled holes may have one or more bleed holes that may permit quenching material to flow therethrough and prevent the quenching material from stagnating therein.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2014Date of Patent: February 14, 2017Assignee: Dresser-Rand CompanyInventors: Michael J. Crowley, Andrew J. Ranz, Byron L. Mohr

Patent number: 9317698Abstract: A system and method of providing information stored in a memory is provided. The system comprises an information repository for storing information and an access module for providing access to the information in response to a predetermined operation performed on a man-machine interface. The method includes the steps of storing information in a memory and providing access to the information in dependence upon at least one predetermined operation.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2013Date of Patent: April 19, 2016Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventors: George Baldwin Bumiller, Michael J. Crowley, Luis Estable

Patent number: 9062982Abstract: A method of downloading map data to a portable electronic device entails determining a route, identifying waypoints along the route, and downloading and caching map data for the waypoints along the route. The map data for areas around each of the waypoints (intersections, decision points) are thus preloaded prior to the device arriving at or near each waypoint. This ensures that the device has locally cached all the map data needed to render a navigationally useful map of the area around each waypoint.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 2008Date of Patent: June 23, 2015Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventor: Michael J. Crowley

Patent number: 8744443Abstract: A scheme for facilitating accelerated network selection by a wireless user equipment (UE) device. In one exemplary embodiment, prior to performing a full band scan, the wireless UE device is operable to interrogate a list of networks with which the wireless UE device has registered at least once in a given period of time, wherein a network availability likelihood score may be associated with each of the list of networks. A particular network is selected from the list of networks based on its network availability likelihood score.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2011Date of Patent: June 3, 2014Assignee: BlackBerry LimitedInventors: Adrian Buckley, Michael J. Crowley
