  • Publication number: 20150092339
    Abstract: A push button assembly disposed on a cover has a push button hole, and includes a holder, a latch, a resilient member, and pushing bracket. The holder forms a chute with the cover. The holder has an abutting plate and a retaining structure. The abutting plate and the retaining structure are respectively located at first and second ends of the chute. The latch is slidably disposed in the chute and faces the push button hole. The retaining structure can prevent the latch from leaving the chute from the second end. The resilient member is disposed in the chute and compressed between the abutting plate and the latch. The pushing bracket is connected to the latch and extends away from the cover. The disclosure further discloses a chassis applying the push button assembly and an operating method of the chassis.

  • Patent number: 8978026
    Abstract: An architecture allows individual system components to be developed and tested individually, i.e., as distinct modules, and to be subsequently combined through standardized electrical and communication interfaces. Any combination of these modules can be implemented to form different products that provide any number of functions, such as an integrated system for monitoring a health condition and/or delivering a medication. The architecture also provides an approach for dynamically updating the product and offering its users the latest generation of technology even after the users have already purchased the product. In particular, the embodiments employ the communication interfaces to also provide connection to a remote network that can update or upgrade the product's software when the product is out in the field.

  • Publication number: 20090125636
    Abstract: The dynamic streaming of multimedia data between a data server and one or more clients is disclosed. Dynamic streaming enables the rapid and accurate characterization of the end-to-end path conditions in a server-client streaming session, as well as the rapid and intelligent response to those conditions in terms of source compression prior to data packetization. The most significant bits of an original bit stream can be adaptively and immediately selected in response to network conditions. The adaptive selection process is informed by feedback from the client receiver indicative of a time-to-transit the network from server to client. A control protocol and server architecture, including file format, data structure, data processing procedures, cache control mechanisms, and adaptation algorithms useful in implementing dynamic streaming are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20080301158
    Abstract: A portable data-management system may be easily employed with multiple processing devices by eliminating the need to pre-install additional programs, agents, device drivers, or other software components on the hosts. A portable storage device contains software for a data-management application, which receives and processes test data from a meter that measures an analyte. The portable device may employ an interface protocol that makes the portable device immediately compatible with different operating systems and hardware configurations. Once the portable device is connected to the host, the data-management application can be automatically launched. The convenience and portability of a data-management system may be enhanced by integrating advanced data processing and display features with the portable device. The users may access some advanced presentations of health data without having to launch the data-management application on a separate host.

  • Publication number: 20060262718
    Abstract: This invention provides a system and method to dynamically adapt a wireless link retry limit in real-time according to channel conditions and workload intensity in order to maximize MAC throughput and minimize packet loss. In wireless local area networks (WLANs), such as IEEE 802.11b or a, packets can get lost due to either link error or interface queue overflow. Retry is deployed by a wireless link as a link error protection mechanism to reduce packet loss due to link error. However, an improper configuration of this retry limit (such as too high) may cause more packet loss due to queue overflow than link error. The retry-limit adaptation system and method of this invention strikes a balance between queue drops and link losses. Consequently, it achieves much better network performance in terms of a significant reduction of overall packet loss when compared with situations where the retry limit is statically configured, as recommended by the current standard.

  • Publication number: 20060251167
    Abstract: A receiver-driven streaming method is provided. The method includes receiving an original coded video stream from a transmitter 102 at a receiver 104. An available bit rate is measured at the receiver 104. A request for a different coded video stream and a switching stream is sent from the receiver 104 to the transmitter 102 based on the available bit rate. The requested switching stream is received from the transmitter 102 at the receiver 104. The requested coded video stream is received from the transmitter 102 at the receiver 104. According to one embodiment, switching streams 132a-132f are stored separately from coded video streams 130a-130c, and each switching stream 132a-132f and coded video stream 130a-130c is stored in a separate track from each other. In this way, switching streams 132a-132f maybe generated offline. Also, the receiver 104 controls the streams provided by the transmitter 102 by requesting specific switching streams 132a-132f and coded video streams 130a-103c.
