Abstract: Methods and apparatus for adjusting the operation of a display device so as to be at least within prescribed form factor or other constraints. In one embodiment of the invention, various operational parameters for a display element are adjusted based on considerations specific to high density form factor constraints. For example, in one such device, a Low Power DisplayPort (LPDP) device having a LPDP source and sink adjust the data rate of the visual data to minimize power consumption while still properly supporting display panel resolutions. In some embodiments, the LPDP source and sink may adjust the transceiver voltages to minimize power consumption. In an alternate embodiment, an LPDP device adjusts data rates to minimize the effects of platform noise. In another aspect of the invention, various display elements of a device coordinate quiescent (“quiet”) mode operation during periods of inactivity.

Abstract: The present invention takes advantage of unused storage space within the ESS cells to provide for the efficient and cost effective storage of downloadable content. Specifically, the system of the present invention generally includes a download grid manager that communicates with the ESS cells. Content to be replicated to the ESS cells, and characteristics corresponding thereto, are received on the download grid manager from a content owner (or the like). Based on the characteristics, a storage policy, and storage information previously received from the ESS cells, the download grid manager will replicate the downloadable content to unused storage space within the ESS cells.

Abstract: A document search and retrieval system and program product therefor. Search requests are provided to the system through a user interface. A document decomposer decomposes documents into individual document components. Document components and corresponding searchable indices for each are stored in a Component Library. A search unit searches stored document components responsive to search queries. A results validator compares document hitlists with a document type identified in a search query to select valid hitlists entries for a final hitlist. A document view assembly module collects identified document components and assembles them into a document for view at the user interface.

Abstract: Under the present invention source code can be shared among nodes in a peer-to-peer network. Specifically, source code to be shared will first be analyzed to identify a set of code patterns, assigned one or more predetermined categories based on the set of code patterns, and then selectively indexed. A developer desiring to use previously created source code when creating a new program can perform a context dependent search based on his/her working code to identify and retrieve relevant source code.

Abstract: Semiconductor chip capacitance circuits and methods are provided comprising at least two capacitors mounted close to a substrate, wherein each capacitor has a lateral lower conductive plate mounted near enough to the substrate to have extrinsic capacitance greater than an upper plate extrinsic capacitance. One half of lower plates and one half of upper plates are connected to a first port, and a remaining one half of upper plates and lower plates are connected to a second port, the first and second port having about equal extrinsic capacitance from the lower plates. In one aspect, the substrate comprises a front-end-of-line capacitor defining a substrate footprint, and the at least two capacitors are back-end-of-line Metal-Insulator-Metal Capacitors disposed above the footprint. In another aspect, the at least two capacitors are at least four capacitors arrayed in a rectangular array generally parallel to the substrate.

Abstract: Under the present invention, it is determined whether sufficient resources exist for deploying a platform dependent application on its specific “native” platform in a grid environment. If not, a platform dependent portion of the application is identified, and the application is split into the platform dependent portion and a platform independent portion. Thereafter, the platform dependent portion is deployed on its corresponding native platform, while the platform independent portion is deployed on another platform in the grid environment based on available resources. Interconnections between the two portions can then be automatically generated. This can include, for example, creating remote method invocation facade interfaces, creating remote method invocation-enabled facade classes, and building a remote method invocation server for the first platform.

Abstract: The present invention provides a computer-implemented method, system, and program product for tracking a location of a user of a wireless device in a private network environment. Specifically, under the present invention, a wireless device user will form a data connection with a private network through a public network such as the Internet. At such a time “location” information will be communicated from the wireless device to the provider of the private network, which will use the information to track the location of the wireless device user. In addition, the provider of the private network can query the wireless device when updates to the information are desired. At this or any other time, the wireless device can be queried for any such updates.

Abstract: Under the present invention, when a wireless device user is authenticated by a provider of wireless connectivity, certain information is communicated from the wireless device to a server maintained in the location of the user. Such information includes, among other things, information identifying the location of the wireless device. This information is typically maintained in a table or the like. After a data connection has been established with a public network, the information will be communicated to the provider of the public network and will be used thereby to track the location of the wireless device and/or user. In addition, the provider of the public network can query the server when updates to the information are desired. At this or any other time, the wireless device can be queried for any such updates.
