Abstract: An integrated circuit design optimization procedure to modify a cell feature, such as gate length, models changes in delay as a result of the modification. In the delay change calculation, a characteristic of an event in cell switching behavior, such as the output short-circuit voltage VSC, is determined for the modified cell, where changes in the determined characteristic correlate with changes in delay of the cell due to the modification. Next, a value for delay of the modified cell is determined as a function of the determined characteristic of the event. The procedure can be applied after placement and routing. A timing-constrained, leakage power reduction is described using the delay change model.

Abstract: Rice protein concentrates prepared at low temperature exhibit improved functionality and beneficial physiological benefits, including lowered cholesterol and enhanced lactic acid dehydrogenase activity, without an increase in blood urea nitrogen. The rice protein concentration could be made into a wet dough with comparatively less water than a soy protein concentrate. Use of the rice protein concentrate thus improved processing steps in the formulation of a food article containing the concentrate. The food product advantageously shows an extending shelf life and improved palatable texture.

Abstract: An approach is provided that determines whether keyboard power connection points included in a wireless keyboard are connected to system power connection points in a computer system. Power is sent from the computer system to the wireless keyboard. The power is transmitted through the system power connection points to the keyboard power connection points. Keyboard components included in the wireless keyboard are also powered using the power sent from the computer system. If the keyboard power connection points are not connected to the system power connection points, the keyboard components are powered included in the wireless keyboard by using a keyboard battery that is included in the wireless keyboard. One of the keyboard components that receives power is a wireless interface that connects the wireless keyboard to the computer system.

Abstract: An approach is provided that identifies when a wireless keyboard unit is connected to an information handling system that includes a display screen that is partially blocked when the keyboard is attached. A determination is made as to the size of the visible portion of the display screen. Items are displayed on the visible portion of the display screen. The approach refrains from displaying items on the blocked portion of the display screen. The user is able to move the wireless keyboard, the movement of the keyboard resulting in a changed size of the visible portion of the display screen. After the keyboard is repositioned, the visual items are re-displayed on the visible portion of the display screen so that the items fit in the changed size of the visible portion of the display screen.

Abstract: Fingertip-sized discrete areas are provided on a slate computer and have different tactile characteristics than the remainder of the surface on which they are disposed. The discrete areas are arranged to mimic home keys of a keyboard and each discrete area corresponds to a respective home key. In this way, a user is given tactile feedback of when fingers are properly placed in the home position, with home key finger placement triggering the presentation of a full keyboard on screen. Other embodiments do not use tactilely distinct keys, with simultaneous placement of two or more fingers on the computer triggering display of the virtual keyboard.

Abstract: A portable fax machine includes a pen-based input device, having a writing pen and a writing pad, enabling a user to write documents for fax transmission on the writing pad by means of the writing pen. The input device is capable of generating data representative of the moving trace of the writing pen. An encoder transfers the data representative of the moving trace of the writing pen into fax data format. A dialer inputs the fax number of a destination to set up a connection. A fax transmission device transmits to the destination the data in the fax data format output by the encoder.
