  • Patent number: 9071701
    Abstract: A wireless characteristic of a wireless signal may be used to trigger generation of a position fix. A mobile computing device may include a wireless transceiver, a location determination circuit and a processing circuit. The wireless transceiver may be configured to receive a wireless signal over a short range wireless network from a wireless system. The processing circuit may be configured to detect a change in the wireless signal and, in response to the detected change, to generate a position fix using the location determination circuit.

  • Publication number: 20110055752
    Abstract: A computing device may execute an application to generate application content on a defined region of a display surface. The computing device may respond to a user-input to over-scroll the application content by displaying content that is indicative of an over-scroll state. Upon completion of a designated duration, the computing device automatically displays the application content in the defined region without the content that is indicative of the over-scroll state.

  • Publication number: 20100162126
    Abstract: Predictive caching techniques are described. An apparatus may include a document manager component having a document rendering module and a list manager module. The document rendering module may present a document for the active web application within a display area of an electronic display, the document having a set of list items stored by a list data object. The list manager module may select a set of presentable list items from the list data object for current presentation within the display area for the electronic display, select a set of predictive list items from the list data object for future presentation within the display area for the electronic display, and send a control directive to load the set of predicted list items from the list data object to a predictive cache. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20080094352
    Abstract: Improved approaches for users to with graphical user interfaces of computing devices are disclosed. A rotational user action supplied by a user via a user input device can provide accelerated scrolling. The accelerated nature of the scrolling enables users to scroll or traverse a lengthy data set (e.g., list of items) faster and with greater ease. The amount of acceleration provided can be performed in successive stages, and/or performed based on the speed of the rotational user action. In one embodiment, the rotational user action is transformed into linear action with respect to a graphical user interface. The resulting acceleration effect causes the linear action to be enhanced such that a lengthy data set is able to be rapidly traversed.
