Abstract: Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for recirculating gas in an equipment front end module (“EFEM”), including the ability to provide a gas during recirculation and control the gas flow, pressure, and composition of the environment in the EFEM during recirculation.

Abstract: A gas turbine may include a rotational shaft that couples to a first generator and a second generator. The gas turbine may include a controller that receives one or more load parameters that corresponds to a first set of electrical properties associated with one or more loads coupled to the first generator, the second generator, or both, that receives one or more sensed parameters from one or more sensors that measure a second set of electrical properties associated with the one or more loads, that determines one or more differences between the one or more load parameters and the one or more sensed parameters, and that controls one or more operations of the first generator, the second generator, or both based on the differences.

Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for constructing a complementary calendar and/or a shadow calendar. A user may maintain a primary calendar within which the user may schedule user specified tasks and/or meetings, but may inadvertently omit other entries. Accordingly, a complementary calendar may be constructed based upon inferences derived from user signal data (e.g., information used to identify/infer activities of the user, such as social network profile information, messages, temporal information, locational information, documents, etc.). The complementary calendar may be automatically populated with entries corresponding to inferences derived from user signals and/or real-time conditions (e.g., weather, store hours, traffic conditions, etc.). The primary calendar and the complementary calendar may be merged to create a shadow calendar.

Abstract: An electronic device may include wireless circuitry that is configured to transmit wireless signals during operation. A maximum transmit power level may be established that serves as a cap on how much power is transmitted from the electronic device. Adjustments may be made to the maximum transmit power level in real time based on sensor signals and other information on the operating state of the electronic device. The sensor signals may include motion signals from an accelerometer. The sensor signals may also include ultrasonic sound detected by a microphone. Device orientation data may be used by the device to select whether to measure the ultrasonic sound using a front facing or rear facing microphone. Maximum transmit power level may also be adjusted based on whether or not sound is playing through an ear speaker in the device.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention comprise a client application (“shell”) that is installed on the mobile device. The shell is developed in such a way as to allow it to read certain configuration files (“configuration files”). As discussed in greater detail below, the configuration files contain all information necessary for the shell to create, present, or display a mobile application “on-the-fly” simply by reading the configuration file. Advantageously, this method allows applications to quickly be updated or reconfigured without recompiling and updating native code. In addition, such applications can easily be shared and interact with other applications developed on this platform. This sharing of configuration files with a shell also allows repurposing of applications and a new delivery mechanism for advertising and promotional content.

Abstract: In many computing scenarios, individual profiles are generated from facts specified by, observed about, and/or inferred about individuals, and may be used to personalize services to such individual. Such facts may include details provoking a sensitivity of an individual, and it may be undesirable to reveal the collection and use of such facts to the individual; however, such facts may also enable accurately personalized service. These considerations may be balanced by partitioning the individual profile into a foreground profile, comprising facts that are revealed to the individual, and a background profile, comprising facts that are collected about but not revealed to the individual. Services may be covertly personalized for the individual based on the sensitive information stored in the background profile (e.g., restaurant recommendations that are overtly recommended based on the current location of the individual, and also covertly selected based on an inferred income level of the individual).

Abstract: Photographs of an object may be oriented with respect to both the geographic location and orientation of the object by registering a 3D model derived from a plurality of photographs of the objects with a 2D image of the object having a known location and orientation. For example, a 3D point cloud of an object created from photographs of the object using a Photosynth™ tool may be aligned with a satellite photograph of the object, where the satellite photograph has location and orientation information. A tool providing scaling and rotation of the 3D model with respect to the 2D image may be used or an automatic alignment may be performed using a function based on object edges filtered at particular angles. Once aligned, data may be recorded that registers camera locations for the plurality of photographs with geographic coordinates of the object, either absolute latitude/longitude or relative to the object.
