Abstract: The purpose of this invention is to provide computer or smartphone users with a self-adapting user interface and shortcuts to most frequently used actions (visual or audio). The invention may be applied to menus and to search queries. User has a choice of recent, most frequently used, group, regional or global configuration for either menu or search query defaults. These configurations can be accessed either locally on a disconnected device, synchronized between devices directly or indirectly through a third device such as a local or remote server. The search query can be visually configured to interact with any search engine. The uniqueness of this invention is in access to the last or most frequent uses. The resulting queries can extend from single-term to complex multi-term, multi-range combinations of inclusions and exclusions. The balancing of included search terms with excluded ones helps to eliminate unwanted finds in any database.

Abstract: A unified scalable hardware system architecture contains subsystems which can be made available to a user depending on demand, a status of user's subscription or on a level of acquired licenses. This allows achieving manufacturing economies of scale with flexible monetization policies depending on the subscribed service level. An electric circuit such as a microprocessor system or a semiconductor control device includes a set of channels coupled to a source of a cooling medium and to an external heat exchanger. This cooling medium may be composed of a single or multi-phase liquid, gas, or mixture of any of the said media with solid particles flowing within an integrated circuit (IC) enclosure tangent to the said IC or across the integrated circuit structure through a set of microchannels. A scalable microprocessor system adjusts the number of active cores to the capability of a docking station to dissipate waste heat.

Abstract: The invention provides means to prevent high-performance brakes from overheating by delivering coolant to the heat-generating brake components. As a result of implementing the invention, the brakes can then be used more effectively to control an aircraft during aborted landing after touchdown. After the aircraft completed the braking action, the risk of damaging tire explosions and undercarriage fires is minimized. The aircraft does not require an extensive post-incident overhaul and can be back in service much faster than when and if the invention is not implemented. Another component of the invention reduces the wear and tear of aircraft tires by providing self-propelled rotation before touchdown.

Abstract: Methods for data visualisation, browsing, entry, modification, querying, processing, storage and transfer are described herein. The methods facilitate the maintenance and processing of complex data sets within operating systems, server and client applications on smart phones, portable computers, workstations, servers, mainframes and other computing devices using intuitive and appealing (two-dimensional and three-dimensional) visualisations of data. The benefits of using the methods described herein include increased speed and simplicity of data entry, the real-time verification of data conflicts and the controlled persistence of status indicators enabling users and automata to locate and re-verify data sets or records which require or might require attention and maintenance.
